Check out gameranand's 130K build topic, that should give you a head start into picking the right components.

First thing that comes to mind is, dropping the proc to an i5-3570K.

i saw that but his budget is 134k mine is 100k.

 

[_AkasH_]

Processor Intel Core i5 3570K 13k
Motherboard ASRock Z77 Extreme 4 10k
RAM Corsair Vengeance 2.0 1600MHz 2 x 4GB 3K
Hard Drive WD 1 TB Desktop Internal Hard Drive Black Edition (WD2002FAEX) 5.5K

Graphics Card 7950 24K (check out local prices, will be lower) Asus AMD/ATI HD7950-DC2T 3 GB GDDR5 Graphics Card | Graphics Card | Flipkart.com
I had initally put 7970 @37K, but that is more suited for multiple monitor setup, this card should be more than enough for any game.

Power Supply Corsair HX650 6.5K
Cabinet Carbide 300 4.5K

Keyboard - Don't know much about KBs. How much you planning to spend on KB?

Mouse Logitech Optical Gaming Mouse G500 3276

CPU CM Hyper 212 Evo 2K
Optical Drive ASUS DRW-24B3ST SATA 1040

Sub total - 72.5K.

You still have 27.5K to spend on monitor , speakers, keyboard and whatever extra you need.

Monitor - Size? You can get good 24" ones from 10K onwards.
Dell 24 inch LED - U2412 Monitor: Flipkart.com

Can get this monitor for 18K locally.

You can get a fancier case too if you have cash remaining.

@_AkasH_ tx for the post
just wanted to ask where are you getting these prices from

 

[Cilus]

Those prices are from different Online stores which also has been discussed in Anand's thread.\

Here is my suggestion:-

Intel Core i5 3570K @ 14K
Arsorck Z77 Extreme 6 @ 12.7K
Corsair Vengeance 2133 MHz 4GB X 2 @ 4.2K
WD Caviar Green 1 TB (64 MB Cache, SATA III) @ 4.7K
OCZ Vortex 3 128GB SSD @ 7.58K
Deep Cool Ice Blade Pro CPU Cooler @ 3K
Sapphire HD 7950 OC VaporX Edition @ 24K
Corsair GS700 PSU @ 5.83K
Corsair Carbide 400R @ 5K
BenQ GL2250HM 21.5" LED @ 9K
Razer Cyclosa Gaming Bundle @ 2.5K
Corsair Vengeance 1500 7.1 Channel Gaming Headset @ 4.2K

Total: 96.75K

 

[gameranand]

Well about the price. You'll get better price for CPU at TheITWares and PrimeABGB, HDDs are somehow cheaper at Flipkart itself.
The price of that RAM is from primeabgb.
Some prices are from a local store in Kolkata named "Vedant Computers" and they don't have any online portal so you have to contact them by phone.
Cooler Master Hyper is available at 2275 at The ITWares and 2191 at Flipkart but its unavailable right row.
And the price of that HDD is wrong Black Edition is available at 10264 INR at flipkart however if you'll get a SSD then you should opt for a Green Edition 2 TB which would cost you around 5.8K at flipkart.
For GPU prices see SMC International and PrimeABGB, they have good prices for GPUs.

About KB, you should get Logitech G110 which would cost you around 3K I guess and for mouse better opt for G400 as it would be somewhat cheaper and would save some bucks.
As for monitor, you can also get BenQ G2420HD which is also pretty good Monitor and I am currently using it, pretty good monitor I must say. Good VFM.
For Cabinet I would suggest you CM 690 II.

cilus dont u think that i should go for asrock z77 extreme 4 for mb and leave the gaming headset for the moment and get a gtx670

can u tell exact price so that i can fix it in my budget

 

[vickybat]

^^ Even if you keep the extreme6 and gaming headset intact in your config, you can still strike off the 7950 and get a 670 within 100k budget.

Get the following:

GIGABYTE GRAPHIC CARD GTX 670 2GB DDR5

Gtx 670 is faster and provides options for better high in game settings than a 7950 even after 12.11 release.

just for information does graphic card depends on the monitor....?

 

[vickybat]

^^ I didn't exactly get that buddy? Could you please be a bit brief?

I guess you meant resolution. If it is, then yes. As you go up the resolution values, the need of a powerful gpu arises.

The difference between a single gpu performance like a 670 and a 7870 might be negligible in full hd.
But as you go higher i.e 2560x1600, a single 670 performs lot better and cards like 680 and 7970 perform even better.

This discussion is for a single gpu setup.

 

[N@m@n]

ya i meant resolution
in short
if i will buy benq g2420hd which graphic card should i buy?

 

[vickybat]

For your budget, 670 is the way to go. Its extremely powerful for fullhd resolution.
So is a 7950.

 

[gameranand]

If you want best VFM then Sapphire HD 7870 or you can go for HD 7950 or GTX 670 also.
BenQ is available at around 9.5K at flipkart and at primeabgb its more than that so no need to mention that.
As for CM 690 II, The basic version is available with SMC at 4.5K and Advanced one with Flipkart at around 6K last time I checked.
You see selection of Cabinet is a very subjective matter, what I might love, you'll hate. Also look at NZXT and Lancool Cabinets as they are also quite good. Lancool K62 deserves a special mention, NZXT have quite funky looks, so choose as per your liking.

 

[N@m@n]

7970 is way out of my budget dude...
can only think about 7950 or 670 atm...

 

[gameranand]

DeepCool Ice Blade Pro does perform better than Evo with a margin of about 4-5C. So it depends on you whether you want to pay 700 for 4-5C or not.
Don't know much about ASS of DeepCool.
Hmm... As for UPS it would set you back for around 5.5K if you buy online as it would cost around 350-400 INR just for shipping.
Better to go with G2420HD as price difference is not much and you are getting 24" full HD monitor.
As for GPU I guess you can't get wrong with any of those after latest drivers, do keep in mind that AMD's DirectCompute performance is much much better than Nvidia. For Depth knowledge dig up my thread for Cilus's Article about those topics.

Read my previous post carefully, I was talking about 7870 not 7970.

 

[vickybat]

@ N@m@n

About gpu, gtx 670 is superior than a 7950 in gaming. 7950 has better compute performance which doesn't make sense in your case.
And that 1k price difference between 670 and 7950 is well justified.

Read the links i gave before and decide. Either way, you can't go wrong.
My pick is the gigabyte 670 coz its faster out of the box in almost all titles.

 

[Cilus]

AFAIK, G2420HD is a LCD Display. Although it is a great display for its value, I would recommend you to go with a LED Display and currently better models are available within your budget. Look for BeQ V2410 LED around 11.6K or AOC e2243Fw2 22" IPS Panel based display @ 9K. The AOC one is having better IPS panel compared to the TN panel of other displays within comparable price range.

And yes, Deep Cool Ice Blade Pro is better than Hyper 212 Evo.
