CPU: Intel i5-2400 -- 9k
Mobo: Intel DH67BL-B3 -- 5.3k
RAM: Corsair Value RAM 4GB DDR3 -- 1.5k
HDD: Seagate 7200.12 500GB -- 1.8k
PSU: FSP SAGAII 500W -- 2.1k
or : Corsair CX-430v2 -- 2.5k
or Corsair CX-400 -- 2.3k
CASE: CM Elite 430 -- 2.5k
GPU: MSi HD 6770 -- 6.5k

These prices are the max. amount you are supposed to pay. You would definitely get these at low price but dont pay anything more these.

Recently our forum member bought i5-2400 for 8.7k and Intel DH67BL-B3 for 5k. So, try to get your combo at this price tag.
Dont go for Corsair CX-430. Its build quality is poor. Better get its revised version Cx-430v2 which has 3yrs warranty unlike CX-430's 2yrs warranty. Other choices are SAGAII 500W or CX-400. Both of these are better than CX-430.
Dont go for HD 5770 when HD6770 is available for around same price tag. Though both perform almost equally but going for HD 6770 make more sense.

Also Asus and Gigabyte H67 mobos with 4*RAM slots and USB3 + SATA3 will cost much more than Intel. So, go with intel instead.

thanks a lot buddy for the reply.

Is there any possibility that we can get CPU + H67 Mobo combo around or less <13k?
Actually i thought that prices will be similar to what is on intel site..I mean i was converting USD in Rupee and was thinking this should be price.
i5 2400 price is 184USD so was dividing with 44 which comes to around Rs. 8000.

Yes actully i wanted to get CX400 OEM Seasonic, but it is not available when we went to enquire..
CX430 is available but dont know it is v1 or v2..i doubt if shop guy know the differences.

Is CX430V2 Any good? I mean its rated for low temp. Around 30c,
hows Fsp? Is it 80+?
Which one is good?

6670 looks good and its newer..will get that..
Will go to Lamington Road tomorrow for final quotation..

Thanks again buddy..

better looking case: NZXT Guardian 921 @3.7K

 

[saswat23]

Actually CX-430v2 has much better build quality than CX-430. Even CX-400 has better build quality than CX-430. If you are planning to add only a 6770, ten dont worry and get FSP SAGA-II 500W @ 2.1 or Corsair CX-430v2 @ 2.5k. Both of these will easily handle your rig with HD 6770.
Also look for MSi 6770. It will be a better option than Sapphire's.

Ok, just get the quotations of all the mentioned products here and then can we easily decide which one to opt for your budget.

Just a slight help regarding the identification of Corsair CX430 V2: the V1s, if available, will be present in colourful boxes similar to the TX, AX and GS series of PSU's from Corsair...

But the V2s are available in plain cardboard boxes with the details and Corsair logo on them. Also, the V2s will clearly have an 80+ Certification on the box, so look for that when trying to identify the V2s of the CX series...

Thought it might help... Cheers

thank you for replying guyz
We went there for quotation..we tried to get quotation of 3/4 shops..and most of them are near the same price..some quotes higher in cpu, some in motherboards..etc.

Heres quotation:
Intel i5 2400 + DH67BL-B3: 14500
Corsair 4GB Value Ram: 1400
Seagate 500gb HD 7200: 2000

Cooler Master Elitè310: 1500
Nzxt Gamma: 2000
Zebronics Bijli: 1550

VIP 500w Gold PSU: 1900
Corsair CX430v1: 2300
FSP Saga II 500: 2250

XFX Ati Radeon 5670: 4200

6770 is around 7k so it is getting out of budget and 6670 is same 5670 rebadged..so for now we opt for 5670

CX430 Is available but its v1 and v2 is not available anywhere ..even in Primeabgb also..thats what the guy there told me and Primeabgb is expensive by 300/600Rs. In most parts.

I still think that CPU +Mobo combo is overpriced..can it available for 13k?

Anymore suggetions are welcome..

 

[saswat23]

I think the dealers are charging:
9k for i5-2400 and
5.5k for DH67BL-B3
So, more or less its quite ok.

RAM price is quite good.

The HDD pricing is not that good. If seagate is costing so much then get Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB for 1.8k.

IMO going for HD 5670 with this setup wont be that good idea. Better save some bucks more and get the HD 6770. Avoid XFX cards. Get MSi, Asus or SAPPHIRE cards for ATi/AMD GPUs.

Get the SAGAII 500W. Dont get the CX-430 and the VIP model.

For cabinet go with NZXT GAMMA. It has better cooling system along with Proper Cable Management too.

BTW whats your budget as of now?

 

[debugger]

sorry buddy, i forgot to post our budget.
Budget is 23k with max stretched to 25k..but will try to accomplish under 24k..

The 5670 Video Card will be for temporarily only..Because of budget as of now but my friend will buy good video card in near future.

And noted your point , no XFX. the shop guy also warn us about XFX.

WD is very good i hear their Onsite warranty is great.

We want to make base strong..i.e. Motherboard and Processor..
Is it manageable to get them around 13/13.5k buddy? Is it possible?
I am pretty noob in all this but my mind is still confused on the difference between price...

FSP power supply is good,
Any Seasonic PSU in same price range?
If not then we will go for FSP...Has positive feedback

thanks again buddy for replying

XFX Ati Radeon 5670: 4200

Whatever graphics card you buy its your decision but don't buy cards from XFS brand.
Reason: Their pathetic reseller in India.
Go with MSI.

 

[saswat23]

^^
Yup, MSi is just great at building GPUs.

@debugger
If he is gonna upgrade to a better card in future better dont buy a card now. Save that extra money and get a much better card. And also get cards of good brand like MSi, Asus and SAPPHIRE.

And the price for i5-2400+Intel DH67BL-B3 is just ok.
If you still want some thing less then go for Intel DH67VR-B3 @ ~4.6k.

For a 500W PSU @ 2k, FSP SAGAII 500W is just unbeatable. No, seasonic PSUs available around this budget buddy. You can also go for Corsair CX-400 @ 2.3k or Corsair CX-430v2 @ 2.5k.

For under 25k:
Intel i5-2400 @ 9k
Intel DH67BL-B3 @ 5.5k
WDC Blue 500GB @ 1.8k
Corsair 4GB DDR3 Value RAM @ 1.4k
FSP SAGAII 500W @ 2.2k
NZXT GAMMA @ 2k
TOTAL @ 21.9k

Bargain a bit and you can Corsair 4GB DDR3 @ 1.2k. I got this quote yesterday in Bhubaneswar.
