Thanks for the response. But will this MB support HDMI? Also can I be able to fit this MB into smaller cabinet?

Hi getavmurali,

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

CPU: Intel Core i3-4150 3.5GHz Dual-Core Processor.
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z97N-WIFI Mini ITX LGA1150 Motherboard.
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory.
Storage: Western Digital Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive.

I believe these components are best for normal use, like word processing; based on your budget. In build, MOBO has inbuilt Wifi module and HDMI port as well. The MOBO form factor is a Mini-ITX so it will easily fit with small casing. I hope, this configuration will fulfill your requirements.

hope it helps

Thanks for the suggestion. But with this configuration, the budget goes beyond 40K :(

Sorry to bother again. This MB doesn't support WiFi. Can you suggest some other MB? Or is there any alternate that I can think of?
