A Gaming Machine For Rs 60,000
By: Jayesh Mansukhani   |   Mar 10, 2008

Graphics: XFX 8800 GT 512 PV-T88P-YDF4

Every generation of GPU releases invariably results in a card that manages to bridge the difference between the high-end performance monsters and the VFM market. The 8800 GT is one such card that, after extensive reviews, has been found to keep up with its elder brothers and easily bypass anything available in lower ranges.

The XFX 8800 GT comes with a clock speed of 600MHz and a memory clock of 1800MHz running on GDDR3 RAM. It is DX10 compatible and offers the full slew of features common on Nvidia-based chipsets, including SLI support and HDCP readiness. For a detailed specification chart, please see this link.

The card we have listed here is the base version of the 8800 GT. There are two or three variations, which offer elevated performances but at higher costs – and thus put themselves out of our budget.

Sound (onboard): Realtek ALC888
The Realtek ALC888 is an excellent 8.1 multi-channel capable sound chip which makes it perfect for both gaming and movies.

I think AMD X4 Phenom series for gaming is far superior bet than the Intel ones. Added with 790G chipset, it would be a killer combo.

i had always like the reviews given my tech2 as they give their information on hard core research done by them and again buying Xbox 360 and PS3 may cost lower but they require the support stuffs like HD TV and Sound System, so i think these guys do their job perfectly.
Nitesh Lohia @ May 04, 2008
I don't understand why people keep comparing a PC to gaming consoles. XBOX 360 or PS3 may cost half of this 60 grand comp, but that's all you get- a box to play games with. You need to buy Hi-Def television to play games on and a capable sound system to compliment it. When you add the cost of all the above, it will hit the 60K mark. In such a case, I think PC gets my vote as it would be able to do much more than just gaming.

heh... go buy an xbox 360 20k only,it will atleast not be outdated.. like these things

@ Puneet

20" and 22" have the same resolution man ..

@ VIJAY

8800gt Vs. 22" LCD resolution = weak fps
i think the guys here have a nice balance.
Puneet @ Mar 17, 2008
A gaming machine deserves at least a 22inch LCD- ideal is Dell Ultrasharp2208WFP 22 for 14.5k- I think for 60k an ideal config should be
Processor Intel Core 2 Duo E8200 8,000
MotherboardAbit IP35-E 5,950
RAM Kingston DDR 2 800 2GB 1,550
Sound Onboard NALANOnboard, Intel 10/100/1000 NA
Graphics XFX 8800 GT 512MB 14,100
Optical Drive Lite-On LH-20A1P 1,300
Hard Disk Seagate SATA II HDD 250GB 2,700
Dell Ultrasharp2208WFP 22 for 14500
Keyboard/MouseLogitech MX518/Std. Keyboard 1,250+300

Total 60.4k
vijay @ Mar 14, 2008
my budget is 50k.... so i will be making it a 19" wide TFT (8k) , cheap kebd and mouse combo (from MS or Logitech 500/-) , LG DVD Writer (1300/-) , cheap cabinet (2000/-), much better speakers (logitech X530 6000/-) and probably an inferior processor... could someone please suggest a good cpu to go with the 8800GT 512 ??
zach @ Mar 14, 2008
The mobo looks outdated to me as it cannot take advantage of nvidia's SLI technology .......
shashidhar @ Mar 12, 2008
60,000 for gaming? thats stupid. why would i buy a pc for gaming at 60k when i can buy an xbox 360 at half the price and get the best graphics experience? this is nonsense.

PC's gets upgraded everyother time and the demand for higher configuration is more with every game being released. so its better to stick to gaming consoles. cheers!!!

@saurav

While i agree, that most gamers will prefer to use headphones, it was my choice to go with a simple 5.1 to cater to a larger audience for movie/music purposes.
jayesh @ Mar 12, 2008
80% gamers use headphones and a 500gb hdd is not much needed. So save the money there & buy a good graphics card like 8800 ultra, ram should be 4 gb. Overall the above specifications are not good.
Saurav ghosh @ Mar 12, 2008
How abt a gaming PC for 100000 bucks...................
Himanshu Sharma @ Mar 12, 2008
lol u guyz weren't able to fit the e8400 for a 60k budget.
viewsonic not a very good choice .. i wud rather shell my cash in on a samsung or a dell for abt the same price point ..
Ashwin @ Mar 12, 2008
Good components.I personally like the choice of mouse, MX518 is a good gaming mouse and is not too costly. However can someone tell me the price of Zebronics PEACE cabinet please. my email address is 'slayaditya@gmail.com'
Aditya Sharma @ Mar 11, 2008
i can get a PS3 in 25000 which can play even better games than a gaming PC of 60000 bucks
jimmy @ Mar 11, 2008
i would prefer AMD X2 6000 with asus m3a h\hdmi motherboard with Ati 3870x2 with 4GB RAM
james @ Mar 11, 2008
you know...maybe you guys should do an article for a decent workstation...just like this one.....that would be really cool!!
