1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et cetera.')
Ans: Mostly 3D Design works using softwares 1. 3D Studio Max and 2. AutoCAD
2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: Budget is around 45,000/- but can manage around 10,000/- more (if absolutely necessary). A bit tight on budget at present. (Sorry for the wrong budget mention in the original post.)
3. Planning to overclock?
Ans: No.
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: Windows 7 Ultimate x64
5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: 1 TB
6. Do you want to buy a monitor? If yes, please mention which screen size and resolution do you want. If you already have a monitor and want to reuse it, again mention the size and resolution of monitor you have.
Ans: Would like a 22 inch one and resolution of 1600 * 1024
7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: I do not need an optical drive as I have a spare one available. Also I do not need any speakers, keyboard or mouse.
8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: Next 10 days.
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: I can do the assembly myself.
10. Where do you live? Are you buying locally? Are you open to buying stuff from online shops if you don't get locally?
Ans: I am from Bargarh town of Orissa. I would like to purchase from Bargarh or Bhubaneswar. I can purchase a few items online if I get a better price.
11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: No.

Here is my suggestion:-
FX-8350 @ 13K
Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P @ 5.8K
Corsair Value Ram 8GB X 1 1600MHz @ 5.3K (*mdcomputers.in/products/ram/corsair-ram-value-8gb-ddr3-1600fsb.html)
WD Caviar Blue 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 6 Gbps @ 3.8K
Transcend 128 GB SSD (TS128GSSD340) @ 4.88K (*www.flipkart.com/transcend-128-gb-...=b_3&ref=a12b537d-1d9b-45f5-a39a-6df07d5a1b10)
Cooler Master Elite 311 Cabinet @ 2.2K
Asus GTX 750 TI 2GB DDR5 @ 11.75K (*vedantcomputers.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=201&product_id=1050)
Dell S2240L 22" 1080P IPS panel display @ 8.4K
Total: 49.83K or 50K
Here I have included a cheap but reliable 128GB SSD and nVidia's latest Maxwell architecture based Graphics card which improves in both gaming and Compute performance. SSD will help you in boot time and while working on complex 3D models if placed in SSD due to their low access time.
3DsMax uses iRay engine which is very much optimized for nVidia CUDA and even nVidia gaming cards perform very good in 3DsMax rendering. So suggesting nVidia solution over AMD.

Thanks for all your suggestions. But AMD processors and motherboards are not easily available in Orissa. Can you please recommend any Intel Processors and motherboards? (Personally I have always preferred AMD over Intel due to performance and cost factor. But AMD has a smaller presence here nowadays).

Buddy, I am living in Orissa for last 6.5 years and built 4 AMD based configurations, starting from Phenom II X4 955, then 1090T, FX-8150 and now FX-8350. You can get Asus Motherboards from Saheed Nagar with ease, just contact Rashi peripherals. For Processor, you can order it from Online shop like smc international directly. Also you can get them from Kolkata based Online stores like mdcomputers.in or vedantcomputers.com
