Yes, overclocking is for refresh rate only and not for resolution.
OP will need a 1440p resolution monitor for 4K gaming

Why crucial? As far as I know it does not have an official service centre in India & one needs to ship it abroad themselves/via dealer so really not worth it when samsung is there.

Well, I say 8GB keeping my own experience into consideration. I play all latest games @ 1080p (Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Call of Duty Black Ops IV, Battlefield I etc.) except Assassins Creed Odyssey (optimal is "High" for a 1060 GTX) on ultra without any problem. I am yet to see a game which will overshoot memory of my 8GB gaming system. If you do live broadcast (Twitch etc.) while gaming on ultra settings, then 16GB is recommended else 8GB is good enough.
I feel "future proofing" is irrelevant because a new RAM stick can be installed at any point of time without hassles if you feel like to do it. For a new build with a set budget, I think it makes more sense to invest that 5-6k on a better CPU, mobo or graphics card.

I'd definitely suggest 16gb as you have to consider that his budget is at least 1 lac. A 1 lac build having just 8gb ram is kind of ridiculous. I had 8gb in 2012. Its time to move to 16gb. Because while gaming if you have multiple chrome tabs open and maybe some other applications as well ram will easily go over 8gb

I understand your point. Having 8GB memory in 2018 may sound a bit off but it actually is sensible. I have this bad habit of buying something new every now and then, and so thought of upgrading my system to 16GB many times, but couldn't find even a single reason to do it. It can handle few chrome tabs open and the game, talking from my own experience. There are many videos on YouTube which shows the gaming performance on 4GB, 8GB and 16GB memory and there is hardly any difference between 8GB and 16GB systems.
If its up to me to build a new system, I'd any day spend that extra 5-6k on a better graphics card or a processor which I know I wouldn't change for next 5-6 years instead of buying extra memory which would hardly be used as of now. I don't feel 1 lakh is a huge budget for mid-high end gaming system these days as a good graphics card itself eats up 40% of your budget.
Memory is something which can be upgraded anytime later in future and honestly, the current prices of RAM is plain stupid. Just my 2 cents.

I have the exact same thoughts, and trust me, with some good management, 8 GB is PLENTY for most games.
I run BF1 at 4k @ 50-60 fps ultra, multiplayer 64 player maps, PUBG @ 1440p 60 fps ultra, and 8 GB is sufficient for me. You need to do some memory management, but its worth pointing out that you can easily upgrade in the future if need be.
However, I imagine newest Hitman 2 to run like crap on my rig (mostly because no DX12 and there fore ryzen support is pretty terrible in that)
Always lookout for good deals though, I got my 4x2 GB sticks at a bargain in amazon lightning deal.

Really unbalanced build. Why such an expensive motherboard? Saving money on motherboard and going with 8gb ram should allow you to go with 1070 8GB.
Otherwise if you insist on 16gb ram and that particular motherboard then instead of 1060 6GB go with RX580 Sapphire Pulse for 20k with 3 free games.
Not that expensive,out of 13k you are getting inbuilt ac wifi which itself cost 1-1.5k if bought separately plus the minimum decent mobo for a 6 core ryzen with good VRMs cost ~8-8.5k & this mobo has the best VRMs under 15k.

Ditch additional 8GB stick for a GTX 1080 rather than 1070.

tbh..a 20k graphics card in a 1.2L gaming system doesn't make sense to me at all.
