If you are OCing than this three are mandatory to keep the cpu cool
a cpu cooler
a good cabinet
thermal paste

and for now
save on mobo get Gigabyte GA-Z77P-D3 and get Amd hd 6870
no need to change psu you already got more than enough.

yes local shops will be cheaper than online except when online shops are giving electronic sale/special offers/coupon code or combo offers.

How about getting a core i3 2120 and a h61 mobo for 10k,as i m not overclocking as of now and maybe upgrading to haswell in 6 months.Also i wanna get gtx 660 which is around 18.5k as i need physx and can keep this card for 3 years maybe.Rest of the money i can spend in getting 4gb Ram.Will the i3 really bottleneck my gpu at my monitors res?

I think you should stick to Asrock Z77 extreme 4 as you are planning to overclock and if not then buy non 'K' 3570 with H77 board. It will save you a lot and highly recommended as you could go for Radeon 7850HD 1GB in that case.
