Aftermarket cooler is necessary only if ur going to overclock ur processor
The smps/psu r two different names of same thing
For graphical Bios(UEFI) is possible with sandy bridge platform wait for someone to suggest a sb rig
lastly go ur own research before buying use google search for component reviews before buying u will get a basic idea about the components being suggested here

Mithun UEFI bios is not only available with SB mobos, it is available with AM3+ mobos too. My Sabertooth 990FX does have it and most of the M5A series mobos also have it.

^^ for that price i would recommend the GS600 or the seasonic SII 520
IT Depot is giving 3 yr warranty for the Jetway MB but it does not have switchable grafix but the intel one has also the jetway supports cfx while the intel does not
make ur choice according to ur needs
or get this full featured board
GIGABYTE GA-Z68P-DS3 /2.1 Mother Board

BMG ftw!!
@OP: you can't pair i5-2500K & Asus P7H55 motherboard. They are not of same socket. ;) Change it.
Also you are opting for 2500K means you are going to overclock, which would require P67 or Z68 based motherboards. Instead go with i5-2400+DH67CL combo.
Intel Core i5 2400 @ 9.4K
Intel DH67CL-B3 @ 5.4K
 

d6bmg

BMG ftw!!
^^ Then that would be a big mistake in the searching criteria (bad coding there). Go with the combo which I mentioned. :)

techbulb, if you are not planning to overclock then d6Bmg's config is very good and best VFM solution. Go with it.

the noctua one looks hideous and the gt one well looks like an gt car engine are the corsair hydro series good i will not oc very extreme just for benchmarks and in the future when this processor gets old i need more juice and the noctua one is very hard to find in jaipur

BMG ftw!!
D14 is one of the best air-coolers out there in the market. If Noctua isn't availible at you r place, then v6gt is the way to go.
And 30K config:

Component | Make | Price Processor |Intel Core i5 2400|9400
Motherboard |Intel DH67CL-B3|5400
RAM |Corsair Value 1333 Mhz 4GB|1200
Graphic Card |MSI R6770-MD1GD5|6800
HDD |Seagate 500GB 7200.12|4200
DVD Writer |LG 22x Super DVD/CD R/W|900
PSU |FSP Saga II 500w|2200
Case |NZXT Gamma |2100
UPS |Intex 1KVA|1800
| Total |34000
