Patience, you're buying this in 2 months, 5 hrs is quite a short time for a response.

i3 3220 - 7k
Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H - 4.3K
G.Skill RipJaws 2 x 4GB - 3K
WD 1TB - 4.5K
Saw some decent Kingston 120GB SSD - 6.5K
DVD RW - 1K
NZXT Source 210 - 2.5k
Seasonic S12II 520 Watts PSU - 4.2K

Total 33K

Now, you still need a GPU. You can get a 7770 for around 8K. But, I'd suggest getting a 7850 2GB (think it costs between 13-15K).
Also bump up the PSU to a 620W, it'll cost you 1K more.

There is no processor called the i3 2220k?

CX 500 should be more than enough for the build

1st of all, i3 3220 is a dual core processor and really not recommended for applications like Photoshop, CorelDraw and AutoCad. You need CPU horse power for those applications. Since you will be buying in 2 Months time span, My guess is on that time AMD PileDriver based sub 10K 6 Core and 8 Core (FX 6300 and FX 8320) will be available in India. So better target those CPU based system.

Yeah, right those are good but i didn't recommend them as it overshot the budget. But if you can stretch your budget do go for them.

No, AMD Piledriver based 6 Core FX 6300 will be available around the same price range of i3 3220. So OP can easily go with FX6300 without stretching his budget.

Piledriver is the name of the CPU architecture whereas Vishera is the chip name. Latest AMD APUs has incorporated Piledriver based CPU along with a VLIW4 GPU (Southern Island) and known as Trinity whereas performance oriented FX processors based on Piledriver architecture is known as Vishera.

Thanks for telling, I myself was planning to buy the upcoming FX-8350.

Is FX-6300 Piledriver or Vishera?
Piledriver and Vishera = same thing.

Bulldozer and Zambezi = same thing.

Piledriver and Bulldozer = architectures. The chip for desktops are called Vishera and Zambezi respectively.
