there is a wholesale shop in sadashiv peth (behind some college) in pune. I am not able to recall the name, that will give you authentic and relatively cheap prices for some of the components.

That mobo only supports up to 1600mhz. 1866 overclocked. So that RAM would be wasted.

I'd recommend he get the Asus Z170P. I love the quality of Asus boards.

I also think that PSU is overkill if he isn't getting a GPU. 400w-450w should be more than enough.

Thank you friends for your replies. I am still not able to decide about PSU. Can anybody please suggest me on this?
Also, is Seasonic having their service center in Pune?
Please also suggest me a lower priced model for Monitor.
Thanx
