if you are getting any P35 chipset mobo get single stick 2GB 800FSB RAM in 1.8K or less
if you are getting DG31 chipset based mobo you will have to check what it supports some have 4 DIMMs supporting 1GB RAM each and some have 2 DIMMs supporting 2GB RAMs each,
As for 630i chipset all are 2DIMMs supporting 2GB RAM each

keeping max of 20K I will say
E7200 ~ 5.5K
MSI P35 Neo-F (I do like this mobo, just for reminding this also supports DDR3 memory :D) or Palit/Biostar P35 mobos, these are solid mobos ~4-4.5K
Buying P35 chipset imples single stick 2GB 800FSB RAM ~1.8K
256MB DDR3 8600GT from Asus/Palit any reputed company except XFX ~ 3-3.5K
SOny/Asus burners are IDE ones
Samsung burner is SATA anything you buy for DVD burner ~1-1.2K
Any Zebronics cabby less than 1.5K(without SMPS) + Antec 400W SMPS in 800 bucks
WD Caviar 640GB HDD ~ 3.5-3.6K

TO reduce your prices if you are not into gaming then get 512MB DDR2 8400GS in 2K
250GB HDD around 2.5K and also you can get any local cabinet which has 400W SMPS spending less than 1.5K, and you will be able to bag in everything in less than 20K as I see the price is going little over 20K

Sorry Dude , my bad, building is a more worthy/efficient/suitable way of expressing my point. Although if you refer any good thesaurus you would realise that make is an entirely suitable synonym for build and acceptable in most situations.

Even when you make coffee, you dont initiate the biochemical processes to make coffee beans from their molecular constituents. ;-)

I have used make in the context of making a new thing, as in the PC didnt exist and i made it , the config didnt exist and i made it, not the fact that i plan to etch each and every logical gate, bus and circuit by myself. Nor am i planning to code the Core2Duo fetch-instruction cycle, i barely like Assembly language. All the accumulators and buses and instruction sets make me dizzy these days.

Its just that i study and research in Computer Systems Architecture, these days my life is spent with Morris Mano (book, not the person) and research papers.
</useless rant>

Anyway i am a little out of touch with the market scenario and plus this PC is for my home where in i wont be able to fix problems.

Thanks for all your sincere help, glad to see people helping each other :) , also can someone tell me some reliable shop in Nehru Place.

P.S. sorry for the rant. Hopefully you do realise that silicone is a polymer compund, while silicon is the semiconductor constituent you wanted to refer to. And yes you can get Silicone very easily from hardware stores, its also used to seal crevices apart from cosmetic surgery purposes :p

Hi , i am still undecided between the motherboards and graphics card, plz guide :

XFX 630i vs Palit P35A vs Asus P5K ?

Also do i need 2*1GB RAM ? or a 1*2GB chip would do on each of these ?

I am also a little confused w.r.t. my graphics card :

256MB DDR3 8600GT Asus or Palit ? , Also is 256MB DDR3 superior to 512 DDR2 ? I like a little bit of gaming and would love if my compu would support newer games , even if not in the max settings.

Can the P35A support DDR3 gfx cards ?

every board here supports upto GDDR5 gfx cards.

ASUS P5K is the best mobo from this.
ASUS EN8600GT 256MB GDDR3 for the card. (256MB GDDR3 beats 512MB GDDR2).
go for 1x2GB coz if the mobo supports dual-channel RAM, then it will benefit you,
