Ask around 2-3 weeks before actually getting the components as prices of many items are supposed to change in next 2-3 months.

Remove everything from amazon cart unless they are priced lower than at mdcomputers, primeabgb, vedant or itdepot. That PSU is crap. Consider a Ryzen 5 2600x based config or be ready to spend more for an i7 8700k config.

Didn't include a 4k monitor because playing games needs a GTX 1080Ti which is very expensive also 4k monitors are expensive too so I included 2k monitor

I don't know how much front fans this case comes with so I added three RGB fans for front

Also, the monitor you have mentioned has 8ms respons time according to Amazon so it is not good *serious gaming. Get at least 5ms or lower if possible.

When I was going through the main post, your reply wasn't there. That's why I posted. I saw your post after posting. Now I deleted it.

thank you so much, does graphic card really needed? because i am not going to play any high graphics games. since i am concentrated on some serious development. so for that cost i could get a SSD. In first place the "*" in the post header have confused most of you peoples. the "*" means i will not be playing games very often i am not a gaming person. i am in the age of prince of Persia DOS version. So no worry about Games for me. But VLOG will do it often.

Modified according to your requirement getting 1TB SSD is waste of money because you only need SSD for installing apps and operating system for storing data you can use 1TB harddrive

Check this image,it is the only one that shows the side(though not in focus) having rail values & logos & to me it looks a bit different from what @chimera201 posted for "latest earthwatts gold pro" model.
*mdcomputers.in/image/cache/catalog/smps/antec/earthwatts-gold-pro-550w/ea550g-4-800x800.jpg

I say best to call them in advance & confirm the presence of "7 years warranty" logo on the box(as explained by @chimera201 in that thread with pic) before placing order.I am saying this because though there is less chance but maybe after mdcomputers told them about this old/new model confusion(& warranty mismatch) they decided to give 7 years warranty to older models too based on bill purchase date.

For his Vlogging and Software development, OP would benefit from 16 gigs of RAM.
1 Tb ssd would not be a waste of money if OP isnt making compromises elsewhere on the configuration just to have it. If he can afford it I think he should go for the M.2 970 evo since the mother board you suggested supports NVME.

Edit: I didnt know that the 970 evo was so freaking costly.:blink:
He can probably go for a 1 tb Sata sdd though.

650 watt version looks similar to what chimera has posted so modified configuration with 650 watt version

Most important thing is the side showing rail amp values & certification logos which is not there in pics of 650W model.In any case mdcomputers has changed pics for this series before too so no harm in trying to be extra sure by enquiring before hand about 7 years warranty logo on box/rail amp values(for any seller & not just mdcomputers).
