I called Vedant and Velocity, don't have Technocrats no., and they are telling horrible price differences, one saying 14.5 K for i7 950, other saying 13.2 K.
Vedant said, Gigabyte UD3R MoBo is not available in Kolkata, Asus Sabertooth is @ 12.5K.
Corsair 4 GB 1600 MHz @ 3.2 K by the same shop.
Having prices from other stores too, will inform as soon as I get.

They aren't horrible at all.
Most are better than what SMC site mentions.
@asingh
Guess VX550W can be used.

i7 950 is definitely proper @ 14 k. VX550 is the established entity . Tried and tested over a long period!

I am getting 13.2 K from Vedant, so should I skip them, do you mean there might be a problem in the product for low price.
And I am getting TX650.
Beside all this the main problem is, Gigabyte UD3R is not available here in Kolkata, will try other shops tomorrow, but if I don't find should I go for ASUS Sabertooth. I have no problem with ASUS, but you know service center is Rashi! So if I have any problem with the product then I might have some problem.
So will I wait for Gigabyte or buy the Sabertooth, they also said they have a MSI X58 board, didn't ask the model though.
Please help me make a decision.
Thanks in advance.

Ah. There are going to be price differences. Dealer set prices according to how much margin/profit they want.

Okay, please answer my Mother Board query.

All three of them are good.
Sabertooth is a high quality board and chances of failing are very low.
There are quite a few Kolkata users on the forums. Wait for them for Rashi.

Okay thanks, if it were you what would you choose, between Gigabyte, Sabertooth and MSI, when Gigabyte is not available.

Sabertooth.
umm i am in two minds about a pc purchase at this point , if the config in your signature is good then i think you should have waited till jan 9, or atleast till after 21st december.
beacuse you would then have more news about socket 1155 mobos.
and if by 17th there had been know hope for any news i would have gone for i7 1336 too.
keep this in mind whenever you upgrade next time,wait for the mobo news of the upcoming cpu families.
as for the current rig , its good msi x58 pro is also a good board and will be available for 10.4k if you dont like it get sabretooth or wait for gigabyte.
well if 650 watt is more then what you will need then you can also get corsair hx620w
its a modular design for just rs 300 more.
and if you really want the gigabyte board , then buy all other prts locally and order the board online.
