Sorry bro, but i have listed flipkart as the source so i would really buy to buy from there only. My dad doesnt have time to come to lamington with me and also he cant give me 70k cash to go alone and buy. [We live very farm from lamington] Also i had gone to lamington 2days ago with a friend, they are charging more than what u have quoted. Porbably prices will increase coz of navratari , even flipkart might update?

Also i really like the 30day replacement policy of flipkart, which is not given by people @ lamington.
Can you make a build from flipkart please?

i5 4430 -13.3k
Asus B85M-G -6.5k or gigabyte ga b85m d3h - 6.4k
GSkill ripjawsX 1600 MHz 4 GB -3k
WD Blue 1 TB - 4.4k
amd ati 7970 - 27k(buy locally. FK too much overpriced.)
Seasonic S12II 620 W -5.2k
NZXT Gamma -2.3k(buy locally atleast)
Dell S2240L -9.2k
LiteOn IHAS122-06 WU DVD Burner Internal Optical Drive - 1k

FK is overpriced for all components. First try to search for maximum local hops near to your area. Smc,itdepot ,primeabgb .mdcomputers are also very reliable.

Had gone to around 8-9 shops @ lamington, here is my comparison from the quotes i got there:

Spoiler

The mobos, psu, monitor,optical drive costed the same.
The ram was 100rs cheaper there [dont you think i will need 8gb ram?]
Hardisk was 300rs cheaper there
Didnt check with 7970, but Asus 760 was 22.5k
I dont want the Gamma case, my friend has it and i dont like it.. Also its very tough to fit long cards there..
So i think HAF912 [5.5k @Fk] is a good option

The i5-4570 was 800rs cheaper @ lamington

So if i buy from flipkart here's the loss i do: 2*100 + 300 + 3200 + 800 = 4500rs
I dont mind loosing 4500 RS [I save 300rs everytime i visit there , so if i go to lamington atleast twice to buy the stuff and once after getting all the stuff , i loose 900rs + i will waste my time energy studies and college [i need to bunk coz college is usually till 5pm and sunday lamingotn is closed], so it's kinda not worth it]

Flipkart gives 30day replacement policy which is not given by anyother online or offline stores , which is a huge plus point.

760 is available at 21k on fk

for case consider antec gx700 at around 4k also, if you can find one

How about i buy everything except the graphic card now, i'll be able to play dota/cs on the intel hd4600 [inbuilt in haswell] for a few months and then buy the next gen amd gfx card by janurary [also i have exams from last week of novemebr till 25th december, so i wont be gaming that whole month]

How is the idea?

TBH i dont like the looks of antec, but CM HAF 912 is so sexxxxyyyyyy [To envy all my noob friends hehehehehhe ]

hd4600 can survive on acceptable frame rates. then skip gpu now as next gen amd is already on the corner.

also hdd from fk has seen many DOA cases. better buy it locally.

Okay thanks for the information. Here's my revised build and i had some doubts:
I chose to go with Intel because of less hassles with 1.Overclocking of AMD-FX , 2. Extra Heat caused by AMD-FX , 3.More power consumption of AMD

CPU ------------------- Intel i5 - 4570
Motherboard--------- Confused between Gigabyte B85-D3h AND Asus b85m-G [Both are same price]
RAM ------------------ G.Skill 2*4gb
HDD - WD BLUE 1TB
CASE----------------- HAF 912 with window
PSU ------------------ Seasonic S12ii 620W
MONITOR------------1080p + 900p [Dual monitor setup- i already have an old 900p]
Total from flipkart = 52,500/- RS

I will be using the Intel HD 4600 until the New AMD Volcanic islands will be released..

1.So how is my first rig?
2.Which motherboard is good?
3.Are all the parts compatible?
4.Will the b85 motherboards support the newer gpu?
5. B85 mobo support windows 8 64bit?
6.What's the difference between H87 and B85 motherboards? [I wont be using SSD Caching ever, so if that is the only difference i dont think it's worth the upgrade]

1. its ok
2.Get asus for better after sales service. else both are similer
3.yup all are compatible
4. yes obviously
5. yup obviously

 

[ACidBaseD]

Also because the mobo is a bit low in price, it wouldn't fail if i use it for 18-20hrs a day for the next 4years?

[I use my pc a lot, that's why wanted to go for Intel to save electricity build and thus overclocking is not an option for me ]

 

[harshilsharma63]

Go with asus h87m.

 

[ankush28]

B85-G is also durable if you can spend more then H87m is also good option

don't man don't do this u might end up like me...............if u wana buy buy all components at once only.....

What do you mean Bro?


Also harshil why are u suggesting h87 over the b85??

B85 boards are generally of lower quality as they are the base line boards. With an i5 and such powerful graphic card, an H87 board will better suite because of better build quality and use of higher quality components. Also, with an H87 board, you can perform partial overclocking of i5 by tweaking the turbo boost settings.
