ok well..
then go for 790FX based mobo
it will surely support the new x6 cpu but may need bios update(which is a child's play)

Amd phenom X6 1055t @9.5k
Xfx radeon 5770HD @7.5k ( couldn't choose 5850 due to cost constraint.. sorry dudes )
Biostar's 890GXE board @6.5k
ram-4 GB(2+2) ddr3 1033Mhz ( transcend or corsair ??..suggest me) @5.5k
Cooler master elite 342 cabinet @2k

inspite of sam.shab's advice, i still went for a 24'' monitor because that came with a HDMI port..

tiny suggestions:

1. don't get XFX. get Sapphire or PowerColor. XFX may give more warranty but it is of no use cause Rashi will mess up everything if something goes wrong.

2. get 1333Mhz value ram from A-Data or Transcend or Kingston. corsair will cost 500-800 bucks more.

3. Benq E2200HD comes with HDMI but no cable :???:

4. as ajay suggested, get Corsair VX450W. this is minimum PSU u should get. i'll say get VX550W. but minimum is VX450W.

if i go for a 450w psu, out of 450 how much power my rig will be consuming...
I'm asking this because if the machine draws over 350w constantly under load then the psu is under 78% load.. In a long run this will damage my psu...

rest of your suggestions are pleasing..
thanks

systems never run on full load except while serious gaming, and they are designed for that, so don't worry or if you could increase budget get vx550,

how is hdmi important to you, what will you achieve with it, if you want to hear sound from monitor speakers - which suck highly - what gaming would you enjoy? Just asking out of curiosity........
