I want a mobo with LGA 775 socket and DDR3 ram. Cpu should be of min 2.6Ghz and C2D. Try to limit the budget within 9k including RAM (4GB).

Why do you want those old things??

why not 1155 socket and CPU which will fit in your budget nicely??

@ OP: If you want to spend that much, it doesn't make any sense investing in such old hardware. Get yourself a decent i3 and a supporting motherboard. On any given day, an i3 will be faster and much efficient than a decent mid range C2D.

Core I3 3220 @ 6.8k

Corsair 4 GB DDR3 @ 1.2k
Total 10.8....
Getting those old components is not a way to go ...... Extend your Budget and you will see Good performance....

for the mentioned GPU, i3 wont be a mandatory stuff, given casual gaming is the primary need. Intel Pentium Dual Core G645 is almost same as a i3 :p would do fine at half the price.

Intel Pentium Dual Core G645 @ 3.3k
H61 based board @ 2.8k
DDR-III 1333 MHz 4GB @ 1.2k
