I forgot to mention about size of monitor...i want 20"(1600*900)...@

You mentioned Full HD Monitor in Questionaire...1600x900 is Not a HD Res.

You can get Ripjaws 4GB for 1.7k odd. that will save you some bucks...

In your budget you cant get a Decent gfx to play games at HD resolution as Min req will be an HD 6770 and that will shoot your budget by 6-7K.

600 VA UPS Will help you with a PC which has No GFX but once you add a decent one I think it wont be much of help. Get a 800 VA for decent backup.

Your 23K Rig is well balanced, I tried adding to it but couldn't (except get a 4GB GSkill @ 1.3K, + 0.9K for DVD Writer).
I'd suggest you a 800VA if you get a HD6770 or greater
+ 2.4K for 800VA UPS (Microtek)
else
+1.8K for 625VA UPS (Microtek)

 

[virajk]

Powercom UPS are really good and very well priced see if you can get one of those !

 

[rupam91]

Thnks a lot for ur suggetions Tech_Wiz and nbaztec....
I will go with the 800VA ups as it will hepl me when i wl purchase a gfx crd 1 yr latter...

The Corsair RAM CMV4GX3M1A1333C9 is @ 1333MHz. But it should suffice since even 1600MHz ones default to 1333MHz unless you manually set them from BIOS.

Then I should go for Corsair CMV4GX3M1A1333C9 1333MHz@1.1K
It will save my money too...

If you want you can get the monitor Dell IN2030M from letsbuy.com before Diwali (its 5859.00), plus you can use some 10% off coupon - so that price will come down to Rs. 5274.00 - that saves you around 1.3k.

Now, you can go for Phenom II X4 840 + Asus M4A88T-M LE (or, Intel i3 2100 + Gigabyte GA-H61M-D2-B3)

Also, keep in mind that prices have increased recently.

Edit: I posted a thread on this - link
