If you want good reception for a wifi adaptor opt for usb one it will cost you more but gives better performance than PCI wifi cards.

UPS - APC 600VA Rs. 2800-3300
Opt for BenQ HD Monitor

@TOPGEAR
Are you sure about this? I thought usb adapter would be portable(compact) therefore costlier and under performer to PCI one! Any usb wifi adaptors suggested???

Well initially I was going for "BenQ E2200HD 22inch HD" @ 12k, as you suggested. But to remain under 45k with all other goodies I had to settle for "Dell SE198WFP" @9k.

The usb one and pci one gets the same reception.. but initially Dlink used to bundle the usb ones with a cradle which they stopped doing now.. Using that cradle you can move that to getter better signal reception but whereas with PCI you dont have much to do..

Just reading some forums and reviews.. it seems that Gigabyte G31-S2L at some 2.5k is a pretty good OC'er and it has PCI express 1.1 compliant port... Does it really matter that much for HD4850 whether its a PCI 1.1 or PCI 2.0 port..

ashish, you might want to check this mobo as you are worrying about your budget.. I also need to check this thing for my build.. others any opinion about this?

@spidy Thanx a ton for the concern.
I think it would be better to spend more on a better motherboard than this one. Reasons: just 2 PCI slots. One would be occupied by wireless adaptor, I will have just one left. Someone also reported heating problem. Also I would like to extract the most juice out of HD4850. Though OC'ing abilities are the top priority and Gigabyte G31-S2L is good at it.
I am not saying I am happy spending 5.5k for MSI P 45 Neo. I think an ideal deal would be at about 4k. Well, lets see what others have to say about this...

I would spend that extra money for BenQ E2200HD.

1.coolermaster 500w extreme is avail for 2300 (6 months before)...stick with cm corsair is waste of money...my pny 9600gt even works on zebronics smps...9600gt is not a sucker

2.e7300...dont go for e8x (read xbit labs articles)

3.msi is fine but gb is the best option GA-EP45-DS3R

4. dlink usb wi-fi ...price difference btw usb and pci is not much.

5. logtiech mx518..i bought for rs1350 a year ago

if u r going for cordless logitech then dont buy the base model...one of my friends has replaced it more than 7 tyms

6. ups iball..one of the best in the market...u can replace the battery urself eithout opening it..plus it comes with a serial port...

7.sony-nec dvd writer(one of the most reliable) ...must be at least 16-18x above it just advertising.

For 4K you can go for Palit or MSI p35 based boards. They will cost you 4.2-4.5K.
Biostar is selling a p35 mobo at only Rs. 3500-3800 ( don't sure ). Read about it in lynx-india website some days ago.

APC is the best UPS maker available on the market

Sony drives are not so godd now once they were. Go for ASUS or Samsung.
I've used both of them recently & they are good.

rig is looking good..:) must be able to play the latest games at decent settings. i bought my rig (in sig) for exactly 41k excluding the speakers. the gfx card is fine and if u r not interested in overclocking then try my mobo its much cheaper then the urs and u can invest that money on an additional ram or some other component...;)

@ashish1224 i wud suggest a few changes to ur config.
just bought a E7300,MSI P7N SLI Platinum & Palit 9800 GTX+ for my frnd.the rig is with me as of now and i'm testing it.the E7300 is doing 4GHz 24/7 with my old CM Hyper 48.
personally i wud suggest u not ot go with the 4850.i've tested my spare 4850 with a single 9800GT (1 from my SLi setup) in my i7 rig & the 9800GT performed better in most games (@ 1680x1050).so leave alone the 9800GTX+.
so i wud suggest u to get the MSI P7N SLI Platinum & 9800GTX+.
