you have a HDD currently, use it. because HDD prices are sky high due to Thailand floods.

get this -

Component | Make | Price Processor |Intel Core i5 2500k|11200
Motherboard |Asus P8Z68-M PRO B3|8900
RAM |Gskill Ripjaws X F3-12800CL9S-4GBXL|1650
Graphic Card |Sapphire HD 6950 1GB PCIE|13200
DVD Writer |ASUS 24X Sata Black DVD|1150
PSU |Seasonic S12II 620|4600

Keyboard |Logitech Media Keyboard K200|400
Mouse Pad |Razer Goliathus Fragged Omega S - Speed/Control|500

and 4gb ram is sufficient. also for 8gb you need 64 bit OS.

G3 motherboards are currently overpriced and is of no use without Ivy bridge processors & next gen graphics cards (i.e. Ati's 7xxx series). So, rethink the combination you are asking for.

They are not available in India (at least not listed in any of the websites). Presently, only MSI have G3 motherboards.. You can check them in their website. :)

And you will need Ivy bridge processors.... Don't forget that part.

For Monitor, try to get the BenQ G2220HDL @ 7K. It is on the par with Dell ST2220L if not better.

Maximum Effort!!!!!!
Hey dude u really forgot the "GPU"...the main component for your gaming PC!!!!
do one thing....strip down to the basic components u need for your gaming PC
remove all the supplementary components such as CPU cooler,fans,game pads...etc
u can add all that later some time....without that still your PC will be gaming PC right...!
adding WD black 1tb will effect in improving performance..if u have a spare hdd use it for some time or get a normal 6gbps hdd...that way u will save bucks for gpu...!

When one of the purpose of buying your computer is gaming, you can't relay on the integrated Intel HD 3000 graphics. You should buy a graphics card. As suggested by max_snyper, don't buy WB black 1TB HDD now, its waste of money. Price of HDD have gone up by a very big margin recently, due to flood in Thailand. So, for now, use any existing HDD (if you have any) or buy a nominal 250GB HDD. When the price normalize once again, buy new 1TB HDD.

I plan to buy the next Generation GPU "AMD RADEON 7850" which is rumored to be around INR 10,000 and odd and which is coming in Q1 2012.So I will have to wait until then.

I feel that only in March will the new 7 series will come here in India. Also I doubt that the price will fall quickly till HD79xx comes to India. Even the HD 6850 was priced high when 1st launched here. Expect it to be 14k
Also rumoured that only the 79xx will be 28nm the 78xx will still be 40nm.
