NZXT Gamma is out of production and is not available anywhere online or offline.Its better to go with Circle Cabinet as its built quality is also good compared to NZXT Gamma as well.

For Mouse and keyboard, I would suggest to get a standard keyboard and Lenovo M6811 Laser gaming mouse @ 0.65K.

Thank you for your prompt assistance. I've considered the following components for my build. Please do revert if I should go ahead or make any changes.

CPU - AMD AM3+ FX 6-Core Edition FX-6300 (FD6300WMHKBOX)
Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3 Motherboard
RAM - Gskill 4Gb X 1 Ddr3 1600Mhz Cl9 Ripjaws X RAM (F3-12800CL9S-4GBXL)
Monitor - Dell S2240L 21.5 inch LED Monitor
DVD Writer - LG GH24NS95/GH24NSB0 DVD Burner Internal Optical Drive
Internal Drive - Western Digital 1 TB Desktop SATA Hard Drive (WD10EZEX)
Cabinet - Circle CC818
PSU - Corsair VS 650 SMPS
GPU - I've seen your suggestions but I frankly think I can save up as this computer is meant for an old person with no gaming needs at all. How about Gainward 2GB DDR3 GT610 Graphic Card?

Please tell me if I should go ahead as I need to order the parts soon.

for mobo, get Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P
skip that psu. it is not good. either get antec vp450p or seasonic s12ii 430. it is more than enough.
i am still reluctant with that cabinet. i would have chosen cooler master elite 311. but i really dont know about that case .
also, skip gainward. look for asus,sapphire,zotac etc for gpu.

Then I think FX-6300 is well suited here. For GPU, get the HIS R7 240 1GB GDDR5 which is available around 5.2K. Don't get GPU like GT 610 or 620.
