I was just going to purchase a new pc yesterday ....
MB : M4A785TD-V EVO
I was going for AMD Athlon II X4 630 but the dealer said it was a mainstream processor and cannot run high end games. He said that if i was looking for a gaming pc i should consider buying Phenom X4 810, which by the way is @least Rs 3000 more.
The other option he gave me was to not to go for AMD but Intel, he said Q8400 or Q9400 is much better. Now with so many options i am confused as which one i should go for....
Tell the dealer to take his "experience" to hell. Load of BS that is about Mainstream processor unable to run games. In fact, being a quad core, it is future proof in terms of gaming. Here's a good config for you.

Gigabyte GA-MA785GMT-UD2H @ 5.5k
Kingston 2x2GB DDR3 1333MHz @ 4.6k
500GB WD Blue @ 2.5k
Palit GTS250 512MB @ 7.1k or 4850 1GB @ 7k.
Samsung 2233SW @ 8.5-9k.
CM Elite 335 @ 2.1k
CM Real Power Pro 460W @ 3.5k (Don't buy CM Extreme, but REAL.)
