Please help with best opinion on fast computer for my need

Perk5

Right off the assembly line
Hello guys,
I was to buy a fast computer but got very ill and so I couldnt buy it. I have recovered quite now but I cant delay buying the computer, so I cant wait for broadwell or skylake. The computer I am going to buy is within 2-4 days. I have researched many parts and just want your expert opinions on some parts before finalizing the configuration.

1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et cetera.')
Ans:I use my computer for HEAVY MULTITASKING - heavy browsing 2-4 FIREFOX (2-4 instances of firefox portable) opened with 50+ tabs EACH + google chrome 1 instance (chrome portable) + some softwares launched like kingsoft writer (office alternative) + virtual machines 1-2 opened up at some times (linuxelementary etc.) , 1 vm opened up at all times. Though I would like to go on with medium encoding (encoding is medium now) + minor to medium gaming in near use of this pc. No photoshop to be used. some other softwares too opened up all times. pc used for long hours.

2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans:70k+. but can extend to more too if quite better performance configuration is there. please note the following. BUDGET - I can spend as much for the config for my need told above like between 70k to more, but would like to cut extravagancy, but also want best parts to cover my usage. And I want to be future proof for upto medium encoding and gaming. Heavy multitasking I do currently - remember - 4 browsers opened with 50+ tabs each, vms, softwares. Add the near future encoding and gaming to it (medium both)

3. Planning to overclock?
Ans: yes (before it was not to oc, but now its to oc)

4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: windows 7, and windows 8/10. 64 bit.

5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: 4tb (Already have ssd samsung 840 pro 256gb and 1 hdd. Want to get storage 4tb more.)

6. Do you want to buy a monitor? If yes, please mention which screen size and resolution do you want. If you already have a monitor and want to reuse it, again mention the size and resolution of monitor you have.
Ans: already have ASUS 22inch. 1920x1080. may buy another one but a bit later.

7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: monitor, speakers I will buy later and not now(already have), psu I have corsair cx430 and would like to use it as already had bought after reviews seen and dont want to OC much.

8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: within 2-4 days only, please help me.

9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: will be built by assembler.

10. Where do you live? Are you buying locally? Are you open to buying stuff from online shops if you don't get locally?
Ans: near delhi. but would buy either from online or a nearby assembler.

11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: Some parts I have decided and some parts need your expert guidance - please give your opinion to me for fast buying with 2-4 days to be bought.

CPU - Intel core i7 4790K. only this. but also tell me what is price of a 6 core xeon ? I will not prefer xeon though but just want to know price (also 5820k is very expensive, so tell me price of xeon with inbuilt igpu 6 core)

mobo - asrockextreme6. please dont tell other.

MEMORY - 16GB DDR3, and it should be very good and if some priced higher ram makes quite some difference, please tell its model too with price. also tell me whether dual channel is better or 4channel, although I would like to buy 2 8gb sticks, so that I can add more later in the 4 slots. 1600 mhz is a minimum, though tell me if there will be any advantage of higher freq ram.
please tell me which is better -

Best HDD Type for Desktop Storage | TechEnclave - Indian Technology Community
*www.techenclave.com/community/threads/best-hdd-type-for-desktop-storage.173357/

Anyone has time to go through all this data? :p : *www.backblaze.com/hard-drive-test-data.html

*www.backblaze.com/blog/best-hard-drive/ seems to show that the current crop of 4TB drives are good, and 3TB drives are best avoided.

Also tell -

EXTERNAL HDD - Also tell me best external hdd - seagatebackupplusslim+ or wd or what. I require 2 tb but it should be without requiring a power source (should only need usb port to operate) and should be fast. and what speed are there in usb3.0 ext hdd ?

CABINET -
Please tell me this that the usb3.0 front port can be added to front of a cabinet which has only usb2 ports front header, although the mobo I buy will have front usb3.0 ? and what cost ?

GPU - will a gpu fasten encoding very much. tell please.
is intel inbuilt igpu's quick sync much better for encoding than a external gpu?

COOLER - I will buy hyper 212 but will if I buy this then I will able to use corsaircx430 if I dont oc too much.

I want to use corsaircx430 and will not oc much. please tell me if its ok and also because I will buy a cooler.

-

I need to finalize on the parts quickly and buy within 2-4 days. Really thanks a lot in advance, and do need to get these very soon and in 2-4 days, so please help with fast replies.

PLEASE TELL YOUR OPINION ON ALL THE ABOVE QUESTION ON ALL PART (like exthdd asked above etc.)


PLEASE TELL ME THESE 2 VERY IMPORTANT THING TOO -
The best way to import parts from us. the price there are less + many parts available there are not available in india as. I can pay for the tax + etc but the part available there are of interest to me. I want that item ship fast and reaching my location without my tension for any custom clearance or etc. Even if cost is a bit high but I want foolproof reliability of delivery and quite fast too.
How much time will broadwell processors take to launch in india after they are available in us - how many months later it will take them to come in india ? Though I will buy it only later and cant wait now
