Because many parts like antec psu's and nzxt cabinets are not readily available in delhi.

cs : go ( 800x600 at max settings 100fps constant )
Going high res at low settings give more of an advantage than low res
Just sayin
Anyways,
i5 3550 12k
B75 of your choice -4.1k
HD 7850 - 13k
CX430v2- 2.5k
NZXT Gamma - 2.6k <-- try and find a CM310 with side panel locally.. Gamma looks really ugly to me
GSkill Ripjaws - 8 GB - 4k

I think the low resolution is for the gameplay advantage.

you dont get it.. Going High res at lesser settings has more of a gameplay advantage than low rez at high settings
High res enables you to see corners without turning, and in strategy games like starcraft, it can be a lifesaver

^ I think OP wants to play CS:GO, and not Starcraft at 800x600. Now there's no proof whether low res is better for CS or not, but what I do know is that a large number of pros play at 800x600, so there must be some truth to that. I'm no pro (I play at 1080p myself), but I know many people who swear by low resolutions.

yes +1 , lower resolution gives 2 advantages :

1. easier to spot because models become bigger
2. better aim because with a 800dpi mouse you only need little movement to cover the whole screen
3. used to it since cs 1.6 days... so hard for me to switch .

i want to play at 800x600 with max graphics setting so as to get sharp corners and better models in general.
