^ sorry, didn't notice that :p

i5 4430 (12000)
Asus B85M-G (6200)
Kingston hyperX blu 1600 MHz 4 GB (2400)
WD 500 GB (3200)
Seasonic S12II 520 W (4300)
Bit Fenix Merc Alpha (3200)
Asus optical drive (1050)
Logitech MK200 (850)
Dell S2240L (9000)

total: 42k

this is quite above your mentioned budget, but if you end up buying a card like GTX 660, then an intel config below this wouldn't do justice to it :p

CAn you give us an idea of how much budget will you have for the graphic card?

mdcomputers is good, though confirm the product availability on call before placing an order. they usually don't update their website.

OP has already mentioned that that he does not intend to purchase a power GPU like 660. 500 W PSU will be enough.
