CPU under 17k Pls Help..!!

Alright.. I have extended my budget now and can spend 40k for my PC.

I'm getting the monitor too.. Here's the list of stuff i'm buying.

AMD fx 4100 @ 5900
ASUS M5A97R2.0 @ 7000
Corsair value select 4gb ddr3 1600MHz @ 2100
Corsair value select 2gb ddr3 1600MHz @ 1100
AMD Radeon HD 7750 Asus 1gb gddr5 edition @ 6900
WD Cavier Blue 500gb @ 3500
Asus DVD burner @ 1100
Corsair cx430v2 PSU @ 2700
Cooler Master cabinet elite 361 @ 2000
Asus Monitor 19" LED VE198T 1440x900 HD @ 5200

Total comes close to 37500. fx 4100 is enough for me.. since the performance it provides is satisfiable and 4 cores are good. fx 6300 is way better for a little more with advantage of 6 cores but still.. i'll keep the mobo to upgrade later to a newer fx series.
What else do i need to complete my pc? I have keyboard,mouse. Do i need a soundcard for my cpu or an external speakers connected to it will work?? Also what about network card, bluetooth and other stuff .. need to buy them seperately again?
Please help me with the missing stuff i need to build my computer, this is the first time i'm doing so..

Fx 4100 is really not reccomended.as it has poor single threaded performance.

Better add rs 1500 and get fx 6300 @7.4k.you will never regret later.

Wd blue hd 500gb price is @rs 2900

Add rs 400 and get Nzxt gamma cabinet ,much better than cm elite 361

Get antec vp 450w psu @rs 2.7k instead of cxv2 430w

Rest is fine.

Ah Okay changed my mind.. I'll not be getting fx 4100. Suppose the fx 6100 is a little more cheaper than fx 6300... then i'll get fx 6100 or else 6300 if there's not much difference in price.
I'll keep the 4gb ram and don't bother to buy 2gb one now.. i think it's sufficient.
I like the cm elite 361 cabinet, looks cool.. may be it will work well too.
About psu, cxv2 430w can be bought for even less. Will 430w be sufficient for all of them or is it really required to get antec 450w?

Final changes to my config
AMD fx 6300 @ 7300
ASUS M5A97R2.0 @ 6500
Corsair value select 4gb ddr3 1600MHz @ 1900
AMD Radeon HD 7750 Asus 1gb gddr5 edition @ 6900
WD Cavier Blue 500gb @ 2900
Asus DVD burner @ 1000
Corsair cx430v2 PSU @ 2500
Cooler Master cabinet elite 361 @ 2000
Asus Monitor 19" LED VE198T 1440x900 HD @ 5000

Total cost ~ 36k

Do i need anything more?? What about network card to connect internet and speakers/sound card for audio??

Check the FX 4300 too though FX 6300 is more vfm...


Motherboard does the job...

Oh i see.. the fx 4300 is slightly better in single threaded apps while fx 6300 is way better in multi threading. I also see both are priced the same.. so fx 6300 would be the one to choose for.
Thanks for letting me know, so the mobo does the job of networking and audio output. So all i need more is just the external speakers to build my pc. Hey what about the wireless card if i need to use wireless network, is it there on the mobo??

Just get a Wifi USB adapter. There are plenty available in the market around 600-700 bucks from Asus, TPLink and NetGear.

@ OP - talking about wireless don't forget to get a BT dongle ;-).. they are very cheap - you can get one around 100 to 150 bucks.

Oh thanks... so a usb wifi adapter will work and doesn't cost much. Kool
Well.. will i be able to use wifi just by plugging in the wifi adapter through the usb?
What's a bluetooth dongle? is it for bluetooth.. if that's so then very cheap too.

Last minute checks... with the above config, can the corsair 430w psu handle msi radeon hd 7770 1gb gddr5 edition @ 7200 instead of the asus 7750?
Few sites tell me that for 7750 recommended psu would be 400w while that for 7770 would be 500. Just a concern though.. if it's okay to add msi hd 7770 1gb gddr5 to my config along with corsair cx430v2 then that would be great.
 
I ram gtx 670 on cx430v2. That is easily enough to handle a 7770. And amd rates their cards much higher than actual required wattage.

@ shadow - with everything at stock speed cs430v2 should handle your config with a HD7770 just fine but if you are interested in OCing invest in a more powerful PSu and extra power at hand is always better .. so look for either a cx500v2 or Seasonic ECO 500.
