Oh, then only option is to go for G4560, otherwise need to wait for few months to get a reasonable 8100 based config.

Does 7100 make any sense now?
For about 1700 extra, I don't think so. They are virtually the same (only clocks are different)
Source: Intel® Product Specification Comparison

You'll be paying 27% more for 11% increase in clock speed.

i3 8100 is good and all .. but your usage seems very basic from what you have written.. unless the intention is to work on really heavy excel files.. even g4400 is good enough for simple basic usage.. g4560 is more than enough..

it appears g4560 price may have been officially increased after the recent rebranding to pentium gold with new stock..

30k is ok budget.. also go with corsair cx 450 for rs 3300..much better value from early available info and likely has a 5 year warranty ( psu got cheaper because of reduction in tax )

I went to corsair official site & under the section "where to buy" corsair list amazon,flipkart & snapdeal(not even some particular sellers) as places to get corsair products.I guess from now onwards my default search would be mdcomputers,vedant,theitdepot,primeabgb for pc components.

Thank you friends for the detailed info!

Probably it makes more sense to stick to G4560 for my use case. There seems no point to go for 8100 with such a costly m/b.

Also please suggest a suitable FHD monitor, at least 22"; bigger will be better though.

Finally came up with the following config:

1. RAM-4GB (GSkill Aegis): 3,750
2. HDD-1TB (WD Blue): 3,300
3. CPU (Pentium G4560): 6,500

4. M/B (Asus Prime B250M-K): 6,050
-- OR --
4. M/B (Gigabyte GA-H110M-S2): 4,400

5. SMPS (Corsair VS450): 2,600
6. Cabinet (Antec VSK 4000B): 2,210
7. Monitor (22" FHD): 8,000 (Not yet decided)
8. KBD/Mouse (Logitech): 0,800

Totals: 31,560 to 33,210 (depending on the m/b)

I hope this is good enough. Any more suggestions/updates?

I'll just once update this to committee, then start ordering the components.

Thanks a lot!

For the monitor, make sure you buy one with IPS or VA panel (not TN panel) and it has same display input ports as mobo's display output ports. Since it is intended for office use, freesync monitors can be ignored.

OK sure, I'll check for the panel type. I don't think we can get a free-sync monitor in this budget anyway.
Thanks!

cpu - g4560 - 6250
ram - corsair ddr4 4gb 2133 mhz - 3500
psu - corsair cx 450 - 3350
mobo - Asus h110- D or gigabyte h110 -s2ph - 4600
hdd- wd 1 tb - 3400
cabinet - 2000
monitor- if you are ok with benq then benq 21.5 gw 2270h - 7700
else lg 22mp48 ips- 8700

most important - motherboard requires bios update so ask seller to do that first otherwise cpu will not work.. ask vedant

gigabyte h110 s2 and H are lower quality boards avoid them

if you dont need lots of storage to store music videos movies big files etc .. instead of hdd get 120 gb ssd.. it will make a lot of difference in general performance and has less failure rates than hdd

Save money, order *www.amazon.in/dp/B010T6CWI2/ for 2699 in lightning deal. Nothing beats this price to performance ratio.

Thanks buddy, the prices look more reasonable at Vedanta Computers. I am not sure how reliable is that website; I never ordered anything from them.
Usually I have ordered from Prime ABGB and The IT Wares, both are in Mumbai.

If this website is good and reliable, I can definitely order from them to save some money.

Thanks.
