Brother you need not to worry at least from the PSU side. It will run a 5850 hell i think it will even run a 5870 also.

im looking to replace my creative inspire 4.1 speakers with something new. i have the edifier c2 and c3 in mind. my budget is around Rs.6500 and the c2 fits perfectly in it. will be watching movies, playing games and listening to music on these speakers. any other speakers i should be looking at in my budget ? another reason why i like c2 and c3 is bcuz they both come with a wireless remote.

I've got 10k to buy a new gpu and have the following one's in mind
radeon hd 4770 or 4850 or gts 250 or gt240 or 9800gt? if i'm using windows 7 coupled with 2gb ram
Note: all the cards of 512mb version except for gt240 which is of 1g priced at 10k
4850 if it is only under 500 rs more expensive than the 4770

Go with 4770...A OC 4770 is equal to a 4870.. ;) and 4850 heats alot as compared to a 4770..

WHAT RESOLUTION DO YOU GAME AT??

E5300 5.8k
*Asus P5KPL-AM 4.5k
2GB kingston ram 3.7k
WD 320 GB 4.4k
CM 460w 3.5k
*Asus Vento TA-M1 Casing 4.5k
*HD4770 10k

The thing with * are to be bought from czone , karachi whereas others from GALAXY!

Note:I have suggested Asus P5KPL-AM motherboard , however if you look in Hafeez Centre , Lahore you may find Asus P5KPL-CM....Which is a better buy!!Secondly , if you want to cut down some price , you may buy CHINESE Casing found everywhere for about 1.2-2k!
This setup will also able to max out games at 1440x900 resolution easily!

why not to buy Asus Vento Mid Tower TA-K2 (Power Supply Peak 400W) for rs.4100
or Asus Vento Mid Tower TA-85 (With 350 Watts Power Supply) for rs.2800

because in previous threads sunny recommended TA-85 casing to everyone with 4770 card.
and i want to increase the processor to e6300
and iam in peshawar so i will get the card definitely from czone , the rest i will buy here

Well its the cheapest casing you can get. However, I would like to change the configuration a bit Acha Bacha suggested.

- Go ahead Buy the e6300 @ 7k.
- Instead of purchasing any other casing, get a chinese one at Rs.1500 which does not include a PSU in it.
- Instead of getting a Chinese PSU, get a Better Branded PSU. In this way , you will be able to Change to a Better GPU in your near future. So i dont recommend getting a CM460, instead get a Corsair CX400 (Try HARD to find it - and If all Failz, then the best you can do is to get a CM500W or a Asus 500W) ... CX400 is only 1k expensive than a CM460W but provide more satisfaction of future upgrades. You will be able to run a GTX260m HD4870 or even a HD5850 on it easily. However at 720p, a 4770 OR a GTS250 will work just fine, which dont require a PSU more than a CM460W. Get a CX400 and a 4870 with it and you are good to go.

guys would an DC E6300 coupled with 4770 can run on stock on a chiense psu which are in the 2200 gaming casing?
HD4770 will work just fine on a Chinese PSU, but it will be better if you can get a Better PSU now. Make this one time investment.
