1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et cetera.')
Ans:playing all latest games and some old games like BF3, crysis 3, fifa 13, gta4 , watch dogs , gta 5(if it comes to pc).

2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: 35-40k

3. Planning to overclock?
Ans:No

4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: win 7 or 8. (64 bits)

5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: 500gb would be enough but if 1 tb can be entered in my budget it's good

6. Do you want to buy a monitor? If yes, please mention which screen size and resolution do you want. If you already have a monitor and want to reuse it, again mention the size and resolution of monitor you have.
Ans: I have a 15 inch LCD monitor at the moment will be using it itself

7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: Mouse, keyboard, speaker,

8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: in a week

9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: Assembler will do it

10. Where do you live? Are you buying locally? Are you open to buying stuff from online shops if you don't get locally?
Ans: Delhi. Will buy it locally from Nehru palace. Can buy it online if didn't find it in Nehru palace though I doubt it. :D

11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: I would prefer Intel processor. I doubt I will be able to get 4th gen i5 in my budget so can go for 3rd gen i5 but if 4th gen is possible then it would be a nice deal.
And I will spend maximum 8-9k on GPU.
Also, please suggest me some shops from Nehru palace.

Op should opt for GTX 650 Ti Boost which is priced around 1K higher than the normal 650 Ti.

Won't 650 ti or ti boost overkill my needs as I will be playing games on 1366 X 768 resolution.

Shouldn't i opt for a smaller gpu and a better cabinet as there won't be good cooling in the cabinet you suggested.
Also can people also suggest some good shops from Nehru palace.

And if possible suggest me a AMD gpu as had a very good experience with it earlier. Have never use Amy off nvdia. Or should I go for nvdia itself?

Also, any particular reason for not suggestion Gigabyte B75m-d3h ?

I ain't sure about how a motherboard affect performance being a noob:what: so please explain me about it.

B75 chipset supports upto 3rd gen intel cpu only i5 4430 is 4th gen cpu so b85 is cheapest that supports 4th gen

^ gigabyte b75m is meant for 2nd and 3rd gen processors, not for 4th gen processor. You need an lga1150 socket motherboard.
Thanks for informing me.

playing games with 40-45k rig on 15" will not looks great
i will recommend upgrading to 20" or 21.5" monitor
for cabinet NZXT gamma or sourc

Can't increase anymore budget. I was even talking for 35k but you guys suggested a 40k rig. I will have to compensate somewhere else in case I'll be buying a monitor as well.

Btw how is the performance of 4th gen proc as compared to 3rd gen proc?
I know in laptops just battery life and integrated graphics is improved. But am not sure about non mobile processors.

At same clock speed, 4th Gen Intel Core or Haswell Processors perform 7 to 10% better than Intel 3rd Gen or Ivy Bridge based Processors. i5 4430 runs at 3 GHz, so performance will be similar to third generation Core i5 3550. Regarding Graphics card, opt for GTX 650 Ti Boost.

As said earlier if I will opt for a monitor too ( which I think I will) this all will be out of my budget.
So can you please suggest another graphics card 2-3k less or nearly 8k.

Asus HD7770 is the minimum you should go with to complement other parts. But I would suggest to skip the graphic card now and play on the IPG itself. Then collect 2-3 k bucks and get GTX 650ti. Better late than bad.

What is the clock speed of this proc?
As there are 4 with the same name on fk 2 of which are coming soon .. just get me a link to this proc

And which gfx does it includes as I read somewhere haswell processors have 3 types of integrated graphics g1,g2 and g3.

Even if I buy a dedicated graphics card later what games can the integrated gfx will be able to play in medium settings?

> you could have checked the clock speed online. Anyways, its 3 GHz.

> Here are the fliipkart links: Intel 3 GHz LGA1150 4430 i5 4th Generation Processor - Intel: Flipkart.com

Intel 3 GHz LGA1150 4430 i5 4th Generation Processor - Intel: Flipkart.com

They are the same processors, but by different sellers. Get the cheaper of two.

> i5 4430 has HD4600 igp. You can play almost all games with medium settings and medium resolutions on it.

Okay. I checked about the clock speed but since there were more than 1 model with same at different price I was confused which one was it. Since usually fk shows only one product even if more than one seller is selling it.


Is b85m plus same as b85m-g ??
What about it?

Both are different motherboards by Asus. PLUS has 3 extra PCI (not PCIe) and only Dsub+dvi monitor connector while B85m g han an HDMI port too. ALso, PLus is ATX (bigger) and g is mATX (smaller).
