^^Ok thank you.
Now as you know my budget what do you suggest I have decided not to go for overclocking.So should i get the sandy bridge 2500 (non k) or shift to ivy bridge.Speaking of which will sandy bridge mobos support ivy bridge too.

Every Sandy Bridge motherboard will support Ivy Bridge and vice versa since socket is same - LGA 1155.

I'd say, get i5-2400.

^^ can i go for a AMD FX-8120 too.As per your suggestion here *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/cpu-motherboards/149791-best-cpus-money-india.html
This is even cheaper than an i5 2400.

Depends on the type of your work .. for mixed threaded apps like games, progarmming apps SB/IB cpus are better but heavily multi tasked apps performs better on Octa core AMD cpus and if you want to get one waiting for PileDriver ( FX-8350/20) is recommended as they are better than BullDozer cpus.
