And yeah get a LiteOn dvd writer LH-20A1P at Rs.1200. The config looks good, but instead of 8800, I think it makes more sense to get the HD4850.

I've already written the 640 GB WD HDD. Seems like you mistakenly read it as 250GB. 5. Kingston is available at that price only & that's the cheapest quote I got. 6. Sorry my bad. Hi,
Thanks for your comment. :)

4. I’ve already written the 640 GB WD HDD. Seems like you mistakenly read it as 250GB.

5. Kingston is available at that price only & that’s the cheapest quote I got.

6. Sorry my bad.

Replace C2D E7200 with Phenom X3 8450 which is Rs. 5000, and hence 500 cheaper. 2. Replace that expensive mobo with Zotac GF8200 Mobo for 3.4K. 3. Replace Palit 9600GSO Sonic with Zotac 9600GT. Both cost the same 6.5K, and this card also supports hybrid power with 8200 chipset, with which power for GPU can be turned off when not required and control is shifted to onboard 8200GS card. 4. 250GB is for babies. Today 500 is minimum. So how about a WD Claviar 640GB SATA2 with 16MB Buffer for 3.7K ? 5. And yes, DDR2 800MHz RAM costs Rs. 800 for a GB and 1500 for 2GB. Not 2350. You are being cheated. 6. That DVD Writer costs 1250, not 1700. Again you are getting cheated. 7. Its Ubuntu Linux, not Linux Ubuntu. And its quite horrible in its current state. Better go for Linux Mint Elyssa Main Edition.

If you keep waiting then you'll have to wait forever as new products are being released & their prices being dropped everyday. Unfortunately ATI VFM gfx cards are not VFM here in India. :( Haha, that’s how gadgets are priced these days.

Price has dropped so much, i remember getting 250GB HDD for 2.4K and now its cheaper than ever. Even my C2D was like near 12K and now its in 6K....lolz. Feel so bad but anyway prices are laid out according to market value. Thanks for the article. I think AMD-ATI gfx card can also be added as a good alternative. Thats great !
