Changes (just suggesting):-
Intel i5- 3450k is an overclocking-friendly option.
A cheap Z77 based board like this ASRock Z77 Extreme4 Motherboard: Flipkart.com

Then gpu is good, psu is good..

Cabby should be CM Elite 431 for 4.5k or so..

Speakers should be F&D F680..

Keyboard and mouse MUST be Logitech G100 combo for 1.8k..

mandarpalshikar · Dec 15, 2012

Here you go - You'll definitely get the rig in 55k in local market.

Component	Name	Price
CPU	Core i5 3570K	14,000
Motherboard	ASUS P8Z77-M	11,000
RAM	G.Skill RipjawsX 1600 MHz 8GB (2x4GB) (F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL)	3,400
PSU	Corsair GS500	4,000
Cabinet	BitFenix Merc Alpha	2,500
Graphics Card	MSI HD 7770	8,000
Monitor	AOC 21.5 inch LED - I2251FW	9,000
Optical Drive	Any Asus/LG DVD Writer	900
CPU Cooler	Deepcool ICEEDGE 400 XT	2,000
Keyboard / Mouse	Logitech Gaming Combo G100	1,600
Speaker	Logitech Z313 2.1	2,000
	Total	58,400

And if you want to do away with OC, then get i5 3550 for 12k and put in the money saved as compared to 3570k which would be around 2k in "Asus GTX 650 Ti OC" @11.2k available at primeabgb.com

what will be the price of 3450k or 3550k?
is there a good motherboard supporting overclocking around 7k?

can u kindly explain in detail the reason of gskill over corsair in ram,aoc over samsung led.
isnt 65ti better than 7770?
bitfenix cabinet wont be available here.can u suggest something else around 3k which might have good looks too

?
is there any cabinet with good inbuild smps for i5?
are the iball and zebronics cabinet i gave bad?

Neo · Dec 15, 2012

The difference in rams is not much, but the gskill ripjawsx performes a little better than corsair vengeance.

HD7770 ( ~8k) performs better than GTX 650 bit costs more (11k)

For the cabinets, NZXT Source 210 and Gamma are really good for their price ( ~2.6k), they provide good cooling as well. But I would suggest to spend a little more and get Corsair 300R or HAF 912 Combat.
Also, good Cabinet with a good in build PSU are either hard to find, or are costly. So, better to buy them separately.

For the monitor, you can also consider Benq G2222HD @ 7k if you want to save up some bucks.

LOL !! Where does the GTX 650 cost Rs 11K ?? You are over quoting.

@ OP
Try and get a better GPU like the HD 7850 / GTX 660 for that kind of a processor based rig meant for gaming generally.That way the RIG will look more balanced.

1. There nothing as 3450k and 3550k. Only 3570k. K means the processor in overclockable.
2. Overclocking in mobos below 7 k is not recommended since thse boards wont be having robust VRM
3. Gskill and Vengeance 1600MHz modules are almost same.
4. Yes 650Ti is better than 7770... hence I said if you are not into OCing get 3550 for 12k and put in saved 2k in Asus GTX 650Ti OC@ 11.2k
5. You can order bitfenix through flipkart - BitFenix Merc Alpha: Flipkart.com
6. iball and zebs are bad

if you are putting in 3k then why put your money in low level brands?
7. AOC monitor I suggested is an IPS panel LED display.

Guys... OPS Budget is 55k... so please balance it out and provide full config instead of suggesting change parts which costs more

Cheapest 7850 is at 13.2k + shipping + octroi... that would mean increase of 3 to 4k in budget... OPs max budget is 55k.

@OP - If you want to play games... my sincere suggestion is not to go for OCing and get a 3550 processor with 650Ti.

With 3550 procy you wont need a aftermarket cooler for cpu... your rig will look like this -

Component	Name	Price
CPU	Core i5 3550	12,000

i doubt aoc or benq might be available here?which is better of the 3 models in picture quality ?
will intel db75en motherboard good enough for 3550?
any better speaker under 2k?

Great suggestion @ mandarpalshikar.... just would like to fine tune a bit

CPU - Core i5 3550 12,000
Motherboard - Gigabyte H77D3H - Rs 7450
RAM - G.Skill RipjawsX 1600 MHz 8GB (2x4GB) (F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL) 3,400
PSU - Corsair GS500 Rs 4,000
Cabinet BitFenix Merc Alpha Rs 2,500
Graphics Card Gigabyte HD 7850OC (GV-R785OC-2GD) - Rs 13,780
Monitor DELL 22" LED Full HD (ST 2220 L) - Rs 8250
Optical Drive Any Asus/LG DVD Writer 900
Keyboard - Rs 300
Mouse - Logitech G 300 - Rs 1300
Speaker Logitech Z313 2.1 2,000

Total - Rs 55,880/-

This is the best you can do at your budget with an i5.

mandarpalshikar · Dec 15, 2012

Better alternative for intel db75en is "Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H" in similar pricing or "ASUS P8B75-V" which would cost around rs 800 more.

Which non-oc card your are speaking of here at 11K ? You have two choices... MSI HD7770 which is non-OC at 8K or Asus GTX 650Ti which is OC. The thing is 650Ti is better than 7770... keep the OC equation out.

For speakers - Creative SBS A335 / Edifier X220 / F&D A510

There is no need for 8GB RAM at this point, add another 4GB stick later.
Dont know much about monitors, so cannot comment

Also, mandarpalshikar, I don't know where you have read that GTX650 performs better than HD7770, but the HD7770 performs better. You need to do your homework properly.

mandarpalshikar · Dec 15, 2012

+1 for Incinerators rig.... if not going for 3550 proccy... better to go for H77 mobos

@OP - about monitors - which ones are available in local market at trivandrum ? You can always but online if you don't get desired one locally

Once again boss... why are you confusing between 650 and 650Ti ???? I said 650Ti performs better that 7770 not 650 non-Ti

And plus no need to comment on peoples "HOMEWORK" ... you are no the teacher here

"Brand" of the cabinet dosnt matter it is the cabinet with a good pedigree which only the "brands" provide matter. Branded ones provide better cooling with Dust filters and cable management which helps the PC last llonger as it runs coooler with less intrusion of dust.

Better go with factory overclocked at minimum differences. If you are god at overclocking safely then yes.

An LED Full HD Dell has been suggested!

Better stick to a Quality Gigabyte H77 than a B75 of Intel which is made by Foxconn originally!!!
