if i purchase GT 710 GDDR5 will it play or encode x265 files and support games like dota 2 and PUBG ?
Though you can play some games at low settings, GT710 is not a gaming card. And I don't think GT 710 can do hardware level encoding of .265 files.
Amazon price quotes are high. Better get it from local shop or from mdc, primeabgb, itdepot.

Though I understand you are building a high end system but you are overspending on some components change these component to what I have mentioned below


HDD:WESTERN DIGITAL DESKTOP HARD DRIVE 4TB BLUE (WD40EZRZ)-8,500

SSD:Samsung 860 EVO 250GB-6,000
PSU:Corsair RM750X-9,500
RAM:ADATA XPG SPECTRIX D40 DDR4 RGB 3000 8GB RAM AX4U300038G16-SRS-14000

for cabinet take a look at this
CORSAIR FULL TOWER CABINET (XL-ATX) - 780T WITH TRANSPARENT SIDE PANEL (BLACK-WHITE)

Don't get large HDD for storing data instead store them in external HDD problem with large HDD if some day one of the HDD fails then you will lose large amount of data
i ordered it lets see when it comes

Why don't you get a Zotac GTX 1080 8GB they are available for 45k and for monitor don't get 144Hz monitors get this
MONITOR LENOVO L24Q-10 -16,000
i'm building the rig in 2 phases
1st phase includes processor, motherboard, memory,hdd storage,psu and cabinet
for 1.5 lacs budget
2nd phase will include graphic card (aiming for asus rog strix 11gb oc gddr5x ) and ssd samsung 1tb 860pro
for 1 lacs budget (ps i will buy this two at the end of the year)

Then you must wait for next gen nvidia cards current cards are just adequate for 4k gaming

the locality of place where i live is heavy under construction so the net connection is not that strong and also keeps on throttling on my net plan (ie. 5mbps) and for the hdd i'm future proofing it for atleast 6 years so i'm buying the biggest consumer product available (also the reputed) afaik gold has 5 years warranty and its one of best if not the best drive out there. primeabgb is providing 12tb wd gold for 38k rs which is good price
It is not a good price because no hdd is 100% safe.If you are willing to spend 38k on a hdd then that means you value your data quite a bit. In that case better buy four 4TB hdd & use 2 of them as main storage & 2 of them as backup/non-essential data storage.It has much less chances of data loss compared to a single 12TB hdd no matter how costly it is.

you must have a graphics card if you are up with a ryzen CPU. If you are planning on getting a beefier GPU later, look for a decent used once for now rather than much cheaper gpus like gt710. there were hd7850 being sold for 3k on erodov.

if you are planning on storing 12TB of data on a single HDD,keep in mind that you must have an equal capacity of a backup storage. HDDs can fail at any time even with in an hour of usage. no matter a 100 years of warranty is provided, your precious data will be gone.

It is one of the 3 major tech sites in India(other 2 are digit & techenclave).

4TB hdd cost ~8400 so four 4TB drives will cost ~33600 which is still less than 38k for a 12TB WD Gold drive which you mentioned,still your choice.

ooh nice so i will buy it there

if i do go with blue what would be its advantage and draw backs
apart from data loss ,recovery and warranty ? vs gold

1) current
2) rpm
3) longevity
4) read and write speed
5) load on pc if i do heavy task like video editing , encoding , photoshop.

current is no issue,rpm will be 5400(WD) & 5900(seagate) but they are faster than your usual 5400rpm laptop hdd because of their special design.Longevity is random with hdd,better spread the risk & get 2 4TB WD & 2 4TB seagate.
Buy Online | Western Digital 4TB 3.5″ 5400 RPM Desktop Internal Hard Drive WD40EZRZ | Price in India
Buy Online | Seagate BarraCuda ST4000DM004 4TB 3.5" Hard Drive | Price in India

For read write speeds you can check any no. of youtube reviews but realistically speaking expect ~70-100MB/s sequential read write speeds initially which will drop with the filling of hdd.For video editing & encoding cpu & ram also matters significantly so it becomes a question of whether hdd speed is slower or faster than the rate at which your cpu & ram are working.If you use some very high quality setting for encoding on a not so fast processor then hdd speeds won't matter because your cpu will be the bottleneck.For video editing & photoshop I think using large amount of ram can somewhat reduce the impact of low hdd speeds.You can always buy a 250gb samsung 860 evo ssd for ~5.6k later if not satisfied with performance.
