^^ max 3.25Gb will be usable in 32bit
you can go for the 2Gb stick. 2 of them.

don't buy UPS online. Carrying charge will cost a bomb. Those weight a lot. specially the ones with bigger capacity.

NZXT Source 210 Elite is better than Antec 300 IMO.

Get a single 4GB DDR3 module now and get another one later.

UPS depends on your PCs overall power consumption -can you tell us the budget for the UPS ??

But NZXT Source 210 Elite is not available in delhi...how about Flipkart: Cooler Master Elite 430 Black Mid Tower Cabinet: Cabinet

hmm as for ups budget .... im going to say till 2k i guess,but i can adjust for more as long as the end product is worth it....... and also my friend suggested me a 600va luminous ups is that any good ?
i just want a good ups that will be able to support future upgrades to the pc as im planning to run this pc for a while.

I have a seasonic 620 watt that is kind of an overkill for my current config but i plan to add more fans and cooling systems once i start overclocking.

I recommend an APC 800va aatleast. Its gonna cost you around 2.8-3k.

Go for APC 1.1 kva for more backup headroom once you crossfire and overclock the cpu.:)
