Dragon...Dragon...Dragon.
dell s2240l ips panel 9k
intel i3 3210 gigabyte b75 mobo 12k
crosair cx430 2.5k
wd black 1tb 5.4k
any big local cabinet 1k
hd 7850 14-15k

if budget extension is not possible you could try toning down the monitor

You could also get a10 fm2 mobo for around 12-13k so if you can upgrade pc in one year, get it as the next gen of trinity apu's will use same socket type and hopefully it will run in cf mode with 7850

Intel i3 3120 - 6500/-
Asus P8 H61M LX - 2800/-

Corsair GS600 - 4500/-
Dell IN2030 - 6500/-
Logitech MK200 kb+mouse combo - 700/-

~40k.

The issue with this setup is the CPU/Mobo part, its a bit old, but afaik I can't find anything better at 40k, maybe someone else can contribute. Maybe go for Intel G645 for 3.5k around and save some cash.

Tell you what, go with the config suggested by samuels

just get a cheaper fm2 mobo for like 4.1k and use the 4k and the extra 4k in gpu and get 7850....

For pure gaming system, AMD A10 is not recommended and a powerful Gaming CPU + discreate Graphics card is better suggestion. I vote for the Tkin's suggested config. The only change I think is to change the Motherboard to Gigabyte B75M-D3H @ 4K.

I would suggest a10 as the cpu is upgradable and after a year or two when the latest gen of trinity comes in. Possibly 7850 could work in cf mode.....

Also a10 is not that bad as a cpu itself. Agreed it is behind the i3 but it is not a huge gap....

Anyway if op has no plans of any upgrade for 2-3 years, then he should i3 7850. It should last 2-3 years

If you are buying a dedicated powerful Graphics card like HD 7850 then get either i3 or i5. A10 is out of equation.

Bro, no need to buy OC variant as you have no plans in overclocking and your mobo variant wont support the same too...
Go for Sapphire AMD HD 7850 1GB GDDR5 which u wud get around 13 k with the i5 config pasted a page behind...

Hello tkin... The op has a 19" screen... Max resolution wouldn't cross 1080p... Now unless he is planning to use more than 1 monitor i dont find any need in pushing forward for the 2 gb variant...

Now with the cash he saved he can upgrade his psu or mobo for a much more stabler config...

But still with your experience if u feel 2gb would be better then i might be at fault somewhere :( i just wanted to help the op...

Buddy, the current games like Max Payne 3, Crysis 2 and Far Cry 3 require more than 1 GB Video Memory even at 1080P resolution if you turn on high AA and AF.

Suggested A10 as OP wanted to play games like NFS COD etc



Also its always better to get 2GB 7850 vs 1 GB 7850 as games like GTA 4 Max Payne 3 struggle on high settings in 1GB cards
