Budget -38.5K

Intel Core i3 7100 -8600,
Asus Prime B250M-Plus -7750,
Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB 2400Mhz DDR4 C16 -4450,
Zotac GTX1050 Ti 4GB Mini -11600,
Deepcool D-Shield -2650,
Seasonic Eco 430w -3450.

TOTAL -38,500.

OP cannot go with AMD Ryzen Processors since they don't have integrated GPUs and the cheapest Ryzen Processor is 14k. So OP cannot afford AMD Ryzen. It's best to go with Intel Kabylake Processors.

Don't ever go with Corsair VS Series SMPS. They are simply crap.

Even Corsair CX430w @ 3.7k is better than VS450w SMPS. Zotac GPUs offers 2+3 years warranty. Corsair offers 10 years of warranty on its RAMs. Seasonic offers 3 years warranty. Both Intel & Asus offers 3 years Warranty. Don't deviate from the suggested components.

Best Shops in Lamington Road to buy are as follows:

1. Computer Selection,

2. Primeabgb,

3. MAC IT Solutions,

4. Cassette World India Pvt Ltd.


Tips to buy best & compatible components:

Rule 1: Don't buy from a single shop, survey and buy from the shop that offers you the best price,

Rule 2: Research the exact products you want and a few alternatives, cause the shopkeepers are very suggestive (Don't listen to them),

Rule 3: Contrary to another answer, retail shops are much cheaper compared to online market places and also there is room for bargain,

Rule 4: If they tell you that, you can save money by not collecting the bill don't listen to them, you won't get the warranty then,

Rule 5: Don't settle for secondary products of cheaper quality, cause it would be a waste of money,

Rule 6: Make sure all your parts are compatible with one other.

How about Motherboard-MSI H110M PRO - VD
Price: Rs. 4,300 (approx)
Click to expand...
H110 motherboards need bios update before being used with Kabylake processors. Who will do the update using Skylake processor.

When you use any Kabylake processor, the motherboard won't even boot or post.

It supports ryzen 5 so the decrease in motherboard cost increases my budget for the amd processor. I am going today evening or tommorow morning on laminton road to survey the cost thus have to finalize by build by then

B250 and H110 are intel chipsets and have LGA1151 socket. Ryzen CPUs are based on AM4 (PGA1331) socket. Who told you it supports ryzen?

AMD Ryzen R5 is AM4 which needs B350M motherboard whereas Intel H110M Motherboard is LGA1151 Skylake motherboard and B250M is LGA1151 Kabylake Motherboard.
AMD Ryzen is different from both Intel Skylake & Kabylake motherboards.

Can you give me a budget build with ryzen 5 1500x
Click to expand...

Buddy its very difficult to build a Ryzen 5 1500X system for 20-23k. I suggest you sell your Vengeance DDR3 RAM to get some more cash. 1500X alone will cost 13.8k. A B350 Motherboard is for around 7.5-8k and a 8GB DDR4 2400 MHz module is around 5k.
