Suggest Configuration

Nice :) Affordable build with room to upgrade

Instead of suggesting individual components... Can I suggest you have a read through this? : Best Graphics Cards For The Money: January 2010
That way you can pick a card that will suit your budget What do you want to do with the card? HDTV? Gaming?
What's your budget for a monitor?

Forgive me for not being clear in the first place , my Budget is 25k in Ind Rupees (around 500-600 USD)

Pl suggest a C2Q , which I can use in my confir,
& any input abt this mobo & GPU.
Also pl suggest if 800 MHz RAM is ok,
will choosing 1066MHz will have substatial difference in performance.

You are aware that the CPU you bought is obsolete - the LGA 775 is now outdated. I would have gone with a Phenom X4 955 - the AM3 socket is still going strong. Same for DDR2 memory and the P45 chipset.

If you read through, the OP stated they were looking for a C2Q to fit a mobo with integrated graphics for "moderate" gaming and HD playback for IRP25K.

It will be fine, but from a tech perspective its getting old.

Yeah, but not everybody really has a need for the latest tech. I'm a fairly hardcore computer user and I built a Core 2 Quad setup in July on 775...and for my needs, it's a beast of a machine. Build some test boxes at work in August that I used C2D, and C2Q's in on 775 mobos and they have been fastastic.

I generally don't go for top of the line..but rather like to stay somewhat modest and just replace the machine with a new build every 2 years. And savings in some areas like CPU's can be put into other areas....like my file server, or in faster hard drives....which make far more of a difference for me than going with a faster CPU.

There is no need to benchline everybody else's PC against yours...unless you do the exact same things, have the same budget and have to meet the same objectives.
