@ Adude_10 if u can increase ur budget by 2 - 3k then u could buy a gtx 580 if not go for ASUS GTX570 Direct Cu II and do u need a UPS or no plz mention
the reason i preferred a normal keyboard and mouse is cause u can buy it any time as they are not much expensive better invest in a graphic card

GTX570 will be enough for gaming @1080p...
If needed, in future OP can go for SLI...

@ mailme a GTX 580 would be much better if the OP can inc his budget a bit as i mentioned above if not he can go for GTX 570
in future if OP wants he could do a GTX 580 sli which would beat a GTX 570 sli anyday and would be more future proof :) just a suggestion

@ its better if OP goes for MSI GTX 570 Twin frozr or asus gtx 570 DC II and not the one with stock fan
r u suggesting a 2TB 5900 RPM HDD cause thats what comes at that price its better if OP goes for 2*Seagate ITB 7200.12 rather than what u r suggesting
the psu u suggested is a over kill a 650w will be more than sufficient better if OP goes for Corsair tx650 v2 which will cost abt 5500/- rather than going for a Seasonic S12D 850

@ coolgame i reffered to the prices posted by jaskanwar click here

Thanks guys, for the record I don't need a UPS and will be able to up my budget by 2k - if the performance increase is good enough.

Will I be able to get all this equipment at a single shop? or would I need to scour around the alleys of Lamington road?

Could anyone recommend a good Case for the rig? and if I would need to include any cooling?

Also, What PSU do you think I should go in for, based on the above recos? To be on the safer side (future proof)

Thanks

^^ He can also go for msi gtx 570 @ 18.7k. It will be a cheaper and better option. The price will come down below 65k.

Btw cm 690 II advanced retails @ 5.5k everywhere including my place. Our forum member cilus bought it at that price recently and i was with him. It was including taxes and everything.

I would suggest msi twin frozr cause asus one is 3 slot and by seeing the intel board i think he cant fit 2 of these(i may be incorrect).So no point to buy powerful smps for future proofing if he cant sli. i doubt he will want to change this card in next 2 years.

580 is about 10 15 percent faster than 6970 so no point in this budget
2600 k too doesn't offer full vfm over 2500k unless you have a one lac budget

i would also recommend OP to go for

2500K instead of 2600k
GTX 570 instead of 580

but do get a 650W-700W PSU if OP wants to SLI in future

instead of going for 2600k buy a 2500k more VFM

go for a good motherboard so i suggested ASUS p8p67 PRO as it fits ur budget not saying that intel MOBO is bad but i and a couple of ppl i know who have used intel MOBO's have had a bad experience

a 650 W power supply will be sufficient for ur build even if u plan to overclock

You can buy ur components from Prime ABGB or IT Wares both are good but buy what u have planned and dont listen to what they suggest

According to me this is the best config u can go for in ur budget
