For your usage, I would recommend the following,
pentium gold g5400 - 5.4k
gigabyte h310m-h - 5k
gskill 4GB DDR4 ram -3.2k
corsair cx450 - 3.3k
Buy Online Intel Pentium Gold G5400 3.70 GHz Processor lowest price in india at www.theitdepot.com
GIGABYTE H310M H Motherboard (Intel Socket 1151/8th Generation Core Series CPU/Max 32GB DDR4-2666MHz Memory)
G.SKILL F4-2133C15S-4GIS Desktop Ram Aegis Series 4GB (4GBx1) DDR4 2133MHz

better go with 8th gen pentium than 7th gen g4560.
I would not recommend using your 6 year old psu as well.

Bro, I did little research, and u have given best specs. Now I have few query :

1 - GA-H110M-H vs GA H110M -S2 , which one is good ? There is price difference of ₹500 for HDMI port. My monitor is 22" IPS with Hdmi. Would there be any difference in diplay over vga ?

2- Also suggest me 120GB ssd for fast booting up.

3- Is that true, that 7th gen processor doesntd support windows 7 ?

mdcomputers has a good reputation & so far I have yet to see anyone having their ssd died within a month of delivery.Still if you want you can get from amazon at a higher price.As for brand these cheap 120gb ssd are more or less same but kingston seems a bit better than sandisk(history of quite varying quality for same model) & WD(they have a solid hdd reputation but are a new entrant in ssd field).

I think there is only ₹100 of price diff. And Sir, I have never bought anything from Mdcomputer site.

Btw, What is the difference between Kingston UV400 and A400 ? Which one is better ?

Then that's fine.Many members(incl myself) have bought from mdcomputers & I have yet to see a negative feedback about them here.

UV series is a bit costlier & supposedly bit better too but I doubt it as price difference is ~100 only.

Was the same case with me until when I purchased a PSU from them in feb or march. Their packaging is really good.give it a try if want to save some extra bucks.

A400 , afaik is a successor to uv400. So even if there is any performance difference among them ,it will be negligible. I would choose the newer a400.

Guys, I am not saying that Mdcomputer site is not trustworthy. Actually Sometime I just buy products from amazon, and If I don't like it, I simply return. But other site has some condition to return untill its damaged, defective, or not working. Thats why I choose flipkart/amazon. Last time I bought a Soundmagic Headphone , and it was so uncomfortable to wear, my ears were hurting. I just called Flipkart and said, its uncomfortable to wear and they refunded my money.

Gigabyte H110M H - 4100
This is all you can get in this tight budget.

Note: H110 chipset may need a bios upgrade. Make sure it's Kabylake ready, if not ask the seller to upgrade bios when buying.

Hello Sir,

What about
Asrock H110M HDV R3.0 getting for ₹3300 on Mdcomputer. It has HDMI too.

After sales service of asus & gigabyte is well known with many reviews but not many reviews about asrock or msi mobo warranty support.
