Ans:I live in Pune, India . Iwant to buy stuff locally ...if any component is not available...i would buy it from amazon

May 2018 is 6 months away by which time there would be a lot many changes in pc components market.Ask 3-4 weeks before actually buying the components.

 

[Suyam Kale]

Yeah but still I wanted the information as if I am buying it today

 

[gta5]

by that time Nvidia would release Volta 2xxx series GPU's ,buy that instead

 

[SaiyanGoku]

Then you are better off buying 8700k+ Z730 mobo+ 2x 1080Ti with a 4k gsync monitor.

Edit: I did the math and you won't be able to fit this config in 250k budget (even with 2x 1080 instead of 1080ti)

 

[Zangetsu]

Buy a single 1080Ti and add 1080Ti later if its exceeding the budget.

But if u plan to upgrade in 2018 then wait for some time for Nvidia Volta.

Doesn't makes sense to recommend threadripper over 8700k for mostly gaming usage. It also doesn't comes with a cooler. Ram is way overpriced. That SSD capacity also makes no sense, HDD as well. PSU is not appropriate (716W is the TDP of the system.

It's not 716w but 582w PSU that is needed for the above system.

So the PSU would be loaded to ~94% of its capacity most times. And you think that's ok for longevity of the system? Nobody pairs a 1080/1080Ti with under 750W psu. OP wanted a SLI config, so 1200W or above is needed.

SLI or Crossfire is not at all recommended. So only single GPU system is always best.

Single 1080Ti is not enough for 4k60 max settings in all games.

[Zangetsu]

If OP is willing to go for SLI setup then he can go with it if budget is not a constraint.

But I will not go for SLI right now, as if I had to build a powerful config.

And 1080Ti is sufficient for 4K gaming but not on Ultra settings @60fps.

Ok!I am all for "open debate" but debating something that is going to be bought 6 months from now is just pointless.I am locking this thread & @Suyam Kale can create a new thread 3-4 weeks before buying parts in may 2018.

@bssunilreddy @SaiyanGoku No offence but I think you both have been trolled by op.I would have simply locked the thread right after seeing replies like "I am a casual gamer with a lot of money" "Yeah but still I wanted the information as if I am buying it today".
