If you're not buying a discrete graphics card then its best if you go with amd. Amd has much superior onboard graphics on its motherboards compared to intel and you can run most games on it(though with immense lag on some games).
Bottomline,go for amd eyes closed.

The AMD athlon is lot better than that i3 processor. Yes you can use that Asus mobo.
You can even use the Asus M478LT-M LE if you want to save more money :wink:

nithesh123,you can go for zebronics bijli cabinet for 1000 and invest saved money on good motherboard such as 880GM UD2H for 4,200 again price of 500 GB harddrive is 1,650.

Will you be buying a graphic card anytime soon? If not then you can get something cheaper than Fsp Saga II 500w. A 350w Fsp Saga might suffice.
Yes you can also save by getting a Zebronics Bilji without PSU.

1 Get the ASUS M5A78L-M LE. as Jaskanwar already said its more future proof
2 There is probably no Led monitor in the 5k range. Even if there is it will be cr@p.
And read this Difference Between LCD and LED TVs
