It was the old price but now it is increased & also availability is an issue.

Power Supply -Antec NeoECO 550M 550W -4.3k
Refer this list before recommending psu: [psucultists] PSU Tier List
antec neo eco M(NE-M) is in tier C, just suggest corsair CX550 as it is in tier B+ & corsair after sales support in India is also good.

*www.primeabgb.com/online-price-rev...-plus-bronze-certification-psu-cp-9020121-uk/

*www.primeabgb.com/online-price-rev...00mhz-ddr4-desktop-memory-cmk16gx4m1e3200c16/

*mdcomputers.in/crucial-mx500-ct500mx500ssd1.html

Call primeabgb & negotiate for price by payment via upi/neft etc & since they are in Mumbai so delivery charges should be less.

Should I consider these components instead of following?
RAM -ADATA XPG Gammix D30 16GB(8GBx2) 3200Mhz -6.3k
Power Supply -Antec NeoECO 550M 550W -4.3k

I don't understand why these are required here and consuming extra budget which could otherwise go into better parts. Used RX 560 4GB /570 4GB /GTX 1050Ti 4GB/1060 6GB could be had for 5-7k.

Read my above post, you won't get adata D30 3200MHz ram at such prices. Also I clearly mentioned that antec neo eco M series is in tier C while corsair CX550 is in tier B+( tier A > tier B+ > tier B > tier C > tier D)

Your view on this...
Intel vs Adata

For me, Adata recommended by @whitestar_999
Adata SX8200 pro is better but now all ssd prices have increased by as much as 60% so recommending MX500 500gb over intel 660p 512gb as their current prices are almost same so no point getting 660p over MX500 for same capacity but if it was older price where 660p 1TB was cheaper than MX500 1TB by at least 1-2k rupees then it would have been a better option.

Fine...Nowadays All recommend 2.5-inch internal SSD....Instead of M.2 Form Factor Why?

Because M.2 form factor comes in two types: sata & NVMe. M.2 sata is basically 2.5" sata ssd without its covering so no point in getting it other than for looks inside cabinet(more empty space etc). M.2 NVMe prices are increased a lot & there is no practical performance difference between a good 2.5" sata ssd(like MX500 or samsung 860 evo) vs regular NVMe ssd & in fact the cheapest NVMe ssd may even be slower than good 2.5" sata ssd. A good NVMe ssd is only beneficial for certain specific tasks or when you really need large read write speeds like in certain video editing usage case etc.

what are you system specs right now? That should let us know whether 3600 + GTX 1650's power consumption is similar or not.

The original Corsair VX450 was a great PSU.

I removed and kept VX 450 from one of my earlier Core2Duo+9600GT 512mp graphic workstation, it served me for 4-5 years.

Is it the right time to buy, I can see the price of all the components are more than what is shared here.
Almost all prices of components have increased drastically since I bought in November last year.
Intel 660P 1TB was 8.3k in primeabgb
Now it is 10.5k
So see the difference in price rise.
I think this price rise will be there for another year or so.
Until production meets demand.

SSD prices were already confirmed to increase at the beginning of this year even before coronavirus sitaution & as per my guess ssd prices will follow the trend of ram price increase in 2017-18 & may not see usual prices at least in this year. For all other components the price increase is temporarily mainly because of supply & distribution network disruptions so I think prices should be back to normal in coming 2-3 months.
