Athlon II X3 440 @3.3k
Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H @4.5k
Corsair Value 2X2GB DDR3 1333MHz @2.2k
WDC Blue 500GB @1.7k
Cooler Master Elite 310 @1.5k

Total --> 13.1k


Sapphire HD 5570 1GB @3.5k (Optional)

I'm guessing you'll be doing everyday tasks like surfing, watching movies,etc.
You can save money by not buying a GPU.
The onboard graphics is capable of playing 1080p movies and similar.
And the tri-core cpu is more than enough for your multitasking needs.

@gaurav...thankx mate..will definately look forward for this combination also...n m not very much familiar with amd architecture...ya i do everyday tasks + photoshop + video editing sometimes...so i guess i3 or core2quad will be better than amd?? Ready to satisfy on onboard graphics..need max powerful n best config within that budget...:)

within a low budget range like yours, there is nothing better than AMD.
X3 440 is better than i3...but yes its not better than c2q...

however, Intel will cost you more...
AMD is the better choice of the two in your range.
I suggest you get another RAM stick. That'll help.

I've added it to my previous post.

@mailme.manju
Gamma will be better choice. Has better airflow and cable management compared to 310.

I was about to suggest gamma but, i think the OP doesnt have a PSU...

Whaaa...
Well then he should consider shelling out extra 1.5k for FSP Saga II 350W and also get CM Elite @1.5k instead of Gamma @2k. Remember FSP has short cables??

In short,
Athlon II X4 635 @4.5k
Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H @4.5k
Corsair Value 2X2GB DDR3 1333MHz @2.2k
WDC Blue 500GB @1.7k
Cooler Master Elite 310 @1.5K
FSP Saga II 350W @1.5k

Total --> 15.9k


@bhushan05d251 you'll need a good PSU(given above) to support the above system. Or else it'll blow up someday.
So better be safe than sorry. :D

Re: mobo+proc+ram+hdd+gpu+cab for 13-15k??

guys m confused..

Remove FSP saga II, I have psu..if it will not take load then will buy ur suggested one later...now confirmed combination is as follows:

Corsair Value 2X2GB DDR3 1333MHz @2.2k
WDC Blue 500GB @1.7k
Cooler Master Elite 310 @1.5K

Total --> 5.4k

Now

athlon II x4 635 @4.5k
4 cores/4 threads
No onchip graphics

Intel i3 @4.9-5k
2 cores/4 threads
Onchip HD graphics...so no need to buy separate gpu (i guess)

Mobo for i3 would be @5k i guess..

Total --> 5.4 + 5 + 5 ~ 15.5k

What u think?? :-D

Not good.
i3 is dual core. won't last much longer.

also why do you need on-die gfx?? AMD has much better onboard gfx than even Core i7-2600k on-die gfx. You don't need to go Intel way with low budget. Intel quad core will cost over 8k even now. No point considering this you can get AMD quad in half the price.

Athlon II X4 635 @4.5k
Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H @4.5k
Corsair Value 2X2GB DDR3 1333MHz @2.2k
WDC Blue 500GB @1.7k

m damm confused in amd vs intel factor only..i have never experienced amd..neither of my friends..all of my friends have used intel cpu only..even i have also been assembling pc based on intel only...is athlon quad core better than i3?? I have also heard that amd processors have less cache size..

Assembling AMD is easier than Intel. Atleast the heatsink installation is far less prone to be screwed up. So don't worry.

An athlon II quad is better than any i3 proccy out there.
Athlon II X4 635 is similar to Intel Q8400(which will cost you around 50% of your total budget).

Cache won't matter that much since you're not gonna game.

Athlon ii x4 is a clear winner to i3 , go for it...
For graphics,
Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H onboard graphics is best...

Cache is just not required for games only. Its very much required for multitasking.

Gaurav,
I dont think Athlon II X3 440 is better than i3-540. Though the former is triple core but the later is dual core and has 4 core which means it has 4 logical cores.
Also the later has better graphics than Athlon II X3 440 with much better cache memory.
