No ways is it OK. It had it once upon a time. Total ****.
Try for APC they are good. The 650VA one is solid. Has USB/Software monitoring interface too, for diagnostics.

^^I was easily able to get it. Though even if monitoring is not available. Still it is good. Atleast for this person....!
@ desiibond & asigh - yup, mocrotek ups are complete junk. One of my friend bought one. When there is a powercut his PC just shuts down and when it's drawing power from power source the battery charging light is always blinking indicating the battery is charging always. So a bad battery is a new ups - a complete junk.
@ itisravishankar - get APC ups without any second thought but from personal experience some good cheap barnds are - Digital, powersafe and numeric

For gfx, go for GTX260 @ 10.5k, or HD4890 @ 12.5k
Cooling - TRUE , or CM Hyper 212.
Go for 22" Dell or Samsung..

If you are stuck on an i7 rig..you might need to increase your budget...roughly the figures would be. Not getting into specifics.
i7 - 14K
X58 Motherboard - 10K
2x3GB (6GB) High Speed RAM - 9K
500W PSU - 5.5K
HD4890 - 12K
19" Monitor - 6K
1TB HDD - 5K
OEM HSF - 2.5K
DVD RW - 2K
---------------------------------------------------
66K
If others can suggest better stuff....else you would need to extend budget, or compromise on the GPU/RAM/HDD/OEM HSF (Use stock). I think the cheapest i7 motherboard will be 9K ...lowest..

Excellent........!
Good stuff, also to give him the option of i5/P55 Chipset.
Processor:
i5 750 @ 10150
Motherboard:
Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD2 @ 7350
(Support for DDR3 2200/1333/1066/800 MHz memory modules)
MSI P55-GD65 @ 9738
(Support for DDR3 1066/1333/1600*/2000*/2133* (OC))
Asus P7P55-D @ 10168
(Support for DDR3 2200(O.C.)*/1600/1333/1066 Non-ECC)
All motherboards support Xfire with x8 x8.
Rest remains, what Raj has mentioned. Though would suggest to get 2 DIMM modules and not three. Better optimization for Dual Channel.

Since X4 and 795FX Combo costs the same as P55, so the user has to make the decision, whether to fell for AMD or for Intel..
