and the prices at the stores are lower that what are stated here.

No highs, No lows = Bose.
False.
In-fact it will save money - I ve bought half of my rig from newegg and it saved me ~ 7-8k.
Its easy to avoid customs.

i think avoiding customs doesn't ensure the warranty.. isn't it like that??
and also for that one needs a friend abroad.
AFAIK newegg doesn't sell stuff to india..

You ll have your warranty irrespective of whether or not you avoid customs. Its just that if there's a problem you ll have to ship it at the closest replacement center which is generally out of India. Here u ll have to pay ~2k for the shipping part.
So its always advisable to buy parts that are known to last from abroad. eg - cpu/gpu.
I got it through my brother. Currently hes in California.
No newegg doesnt ship it to India. But if you find a very hot deal on newegg - like in the Black friday listings they were selling the sapphire 7850 for 140$ post rebate. Thats more like 7.5k. And here it costs 14k. So what you can do is ask a reliable company to ship it to India. Fedex would ship it for 3.5k (to Mumbai) taking the total cost to 11k. So still you could save 3k using one of the most expensive shipping companies i.e Fedex.
Choose a less demanding shipper (reliable one though) and they will ship it for ~2.5k. So you could get the 7850 shipped at your door for mere 10k.
Not bad,eh ?
7850 is a mid range card so the savings aren't that much. But its considerable nevertheless.
Consider a high end card-
There was a deal for MSI GTX 670 for 300$ post rebate ~ 16.5k. Suppose you add 2.5k shipping. So net cost = 19k.
In India, you ll have to pay around 27k for it.
So such deals are always eyes closed stealers IMHO.

not very less if someone knows how to manage the space and a storage device can be added anytime later - so concentrate more on the core components.

Nice info.
Additionally if you know someone well enough in the us, they can buy, test and ship the item to you.
If there are any problems, chances are high they will crop up in the first installation or within a week of usage.

RAm 1.5k
Mobo 3.5k
Cabby 0.7k

may I know the manufacturer and model name of the motherboard and ram ?? even online shops have motherboard and ram at lesser price than this.

Even flipkart which is one of the most expensive sites has got cheaper prices for those 2 components.
The Incinerator
Human Spambot
Intel i3 3220 - Rs 7100
Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H - Rs 4300
Corsair Value Ram 4 GB - Rs 1150
GPU - ASUS GTX 650 TI 1GB DDR5 - Rs 10300
SMPS - CORSAIR 450 VS - Rs 2230
Cabinet - Generic - Rs 700
Total Rs 25780.
At 1366x768 you are great with a 650ti. Battlefield and some upcoming titles will struggle with a weak CPU,hence an i3.
