First a few clearups

1.Will overclocking harm my system?

Depends how much you OC. but for Budget components you get would suggest you to stay away from OC'ing

Component Make Price
CPU Intel Pentium G620 3340
Motherboard ASUS P8H61-M PLUS V2 3340
GPU Zotac GTX 560 10879
RAM G.Skill DDR3 4GB 1150
HDD WD Caviar Blue 250GB 3750
Optical Drive Asus DRW-24B3ST 1110
Case Intex/iBall/Frontech 1200
PSU FSP Saga II 500w 2300
Monitor Dell IN2030M 6100
Mouse | Logitech MK260| 1600
Total 33800~

GPU Price Reference- ZOTAC GeForce GTX 560 (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Graphic Card


Wireless Keyboard Price reference- Logitech MK260 Combo Wireless Keyboard | Keyboard | Flipkart.com






With these components you wont need to Overclock right now

HEY thetechfreak, wont the 560 be too much for the g620 to handle? like bottleneck it?

 

[the_conqueror]

Pentium G620 might bottleneck the gtx 560. Core i3 2120 is a better option because it is in his budget.

You are right. Seems it is a better option. But for what I can find the prices of the i3 2120 it's better to get this AMD processor-

AMD 3 GHz AM3 Phenom II 960T Processor | Processor | Flipkart.com


with this mobo- Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2P Motherboard | Motherboard | Flipkart.com


This Combo is lot lot better than a i3 SB combo in my opinion.

 

[amruth kiran]

true at that price amd is a better option. +1 for that!

In a budget build AMD is the best option because most people on a budget dont think about perfomance per watt. They want bang for the buck. And for that AMD is the best. And if we think practically OP isn't going to game 24/7. He will watch movies, surf the net and with AMD he will be future proof as games which consume more and more cores have started to come so with the i3, OP will suffer in the near future.
@OP 4GB RAM is enough and if you want more you can lodge another stick in the future.

Processor: AMD Phenom II X4 960T: 7k
Motherboard: Biostar A880GZ: 3.4k
RAM: 4GB DDR3 1333MHz: 1k
HDD: WD Caviar Blue 500GB: 4k
Monitor: BenQ G2222HD: 7k
GPU: MSI N560GTX M2D1GD5: 10k
Cabinet: Zebronics Anchor: 1.1k
PSU: FSP Saga II 500w: 2k
Mouse+Keyboard: Zebronics Judwaa 5 bundle: 0.5k
Optical Drive: ASUS 24x DVD writer: 1k
Total: 37k

 

[thetechfreak]

@Utkarsh OP needs wireless keyboard and mouse. Not a el cheapo Judwaa bundle hence I included a wireless one. Also please post links of any website where you found MSI GTX 560 @10K. I could not find any website where it was this low.
also will not recommend that Biostar board. The Gigabyte board which is not only cheaper is also better.
