56k is way out of my budget. What are the components that can be lessened? SSD is not really important lets say. Cheers

Hi icecoolz,

I would like to add a word to help in build of PC. Here are some options for you.

CPU: AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor.
Motherboard:Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 ATX AM3+ Motherboard.
Memory: G.Skill Ares Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage: Western Digital Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive.
GPU: MSI Radeon R9 270 2GB TWIN FROZR Video Card.
PSU: Corsair Builder 600W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply.

I believe these components are best for gaming based on your budget. In build, MOBO is the support of CrossFire technology that means in the future you can add-on a second GPU card for performance, instead of buying a new MOBO or replacing a totally new GPU. The MSI R9 270 is better in terms of performance, mostly used for gaming and stability in graphics and with that you can enjoy better graphics.

Hope it helps.

Its no more in supply at the moment. Even if it is available its not available for Rs 3500. No chance. So check facts.

someone recently bought it for 3.45k locally. I dont remember the thread or the person tho but i dont state wrong prices and if i'm not sure, i put up a (?) at the end..

Also do consider the final discount that people get locally and also the bargaining skills.

Its Rs 3872 after discounts in Snapdeal. So thats nearly Rs 400 over Rs 3500. And That's lowest online IMO. But But But there are reports that the seller is actually sending Green 1 TB instead of Blue. ( I faced the same issue in Amazon, I ordered a Toshiba Enterprise class MG03ACA100 with 5 years warranty but the seller Electrograce sent me a DT01ACA100 ,a far cheaper drive with only two years warranty and mismatching serial numbers on the bill and drive!)

At stores in Kolkata and Delhi WD Blue is not in supply,even the distributor confirmed the same.Hence I enquired if down south its available or in supply.
