Hey guys. This is my first post in digit forum. I currently own a acer aspire desktop with ddr2 2gb ram pentium dual core, 500gb wd cavair g31 mobo and no graphics card. Now im planning to build a new gaming rigand my budget is around 60000. So the standard q and a.
1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications?
Ans. I want it for hardcore gaming. I wish to play games like dead space 3, star wars 1313, gta 5, sgw 3, crysis 3 and other fps and rpg games at 1920x1080 at high settings.

2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans:60000. If a more better configuration can be available, I can extend it by 5k.

3. Planning to overclock?
Ans. Yes.

4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans:windows 8. Havent bought it yet.

5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans:2TB.

6. Do you want to buy a monitor? If yes, please mention which screen size and resolution do you want. If you already have a monitor and want to reuse it, again mention the size and resolution of monitor you have.
Ans:Yes. Full HD. Big 27" if in budget.

7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: UPS, KEYBOARD AND MOUSE AND SPEAKERS.

8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: two or three weeks.

9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: No will get my friend to assemble it,

10. Where do you live? Are you buying locally? Are you open to buying stuff from online shops if you don't get locally?
Ans: Nasik. Anything is ok. Will try to get it for the best price I can.

11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: I would rather not go in for AMD. I want more ram. Say, 16 gb. The motherboard should support SLI cause I will add another card later.
 
Well, an AMD rig would be the best VFM. Why don't you want an AMD rig (fanboy) ?:

FX 8350 (11500)
Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 (7100)
Sapphire 7950 3 GB Vapour-X (22000)
Corsair TX650 v2 (5700)
G.Skill RipjawsX 8 GB (~4000)
WD Blue 2 TB (5800)
NZXT Gamma (2500)
Dell s2240L (8500)

total: ~67000 (worth every penny)

> Please mention the reason for avoiding an AMD rig.

> 16 Gb for gaming is a waste.

> Both 660ti and 7950 cost the same, but the 7950 has a slightly better performance and overclockability.

The reason for avoiding AMD is that i5 performs better than the bulldozer in my friends's pcs.
Graphics, I want nvidia cause it has physx. I also want gaming accessories like steerings and joystiks for anothrr 5k.
Please suggest eithout AMD. I think my budget is good enough.

If you want Physx badly, why don't you buy a low-budget nvidia, along with the AMD.

I was thinking of going for a k-series processor. Will it make any difference? I want to overclock. So 3570k would be better I think. Olease advice. Im now considering amd too. Does the 8 cores in bulldozer make a very big difference while overclocking? And are the amd cards good fps givers in latest games?

AMD cards are bery good overclockers (not that Intel's aren't). The gaming performance difference between FX 8350 and i5 xxxx may look big on paper, but it doesn't interferes too much while gaming.

AMD rig:

FX 8350 (11500)
Asus M5A97 Evo R2.0 (7200)
G.Skill Sniper 1600 MHz 4 GB (2100)
WD Blue 2 TB (5800)
Sapphire HD7950 Vapour-X 3 GB (22000)
Corsair TX650V2 (5700)
NZXT Gamma (2500)
Dell S2240L (8500)

total: 65300

Nice. Make sure you get a good thermal paste and cabinet fans.
