Alright Basically I don't really need to upgrade the PC but every 1-2 years I get this upgrade bug infection and I spend extra funds :-D

ps: Basically I am gamer. Play like SC2, Warhammer 40k etc & other RTS games.

So I have like 20-25k budget.

My Config is in the Signature.

Which parts should I Upgrade first?

Forgot to Mention that I got a LG 19" Monitor (1400x900).

i would advice you to get a cpu+mobo+ a full hd monitor. here is my suggestion.
i5 4430 - 11.3k
gigabyte b85m d3h - 5.2k
dell s2240l - 8.5k/AOC i2269vwm

- - - Updated - - -

also you can get good enough money by selling your current cpu+mobo.

he already has 560 ti. if he opts for a high end gpu now, his cpu will bottleneck until he upgrades it.
Yes if he has a budget of 25000 then he should buy a new cpu+mobo and maybe a 1080p display.
560ti is not that bad and IMO will handle the games albeit no games like crysis at 1080p

from his funds he can get your above config.

buy sellign off his current config[minus the PSU, cabby] he can get the new GPU.

btw, i hope he has a good PSU.

I guess you didn't check my Sig. I got a rocking Cosair HX 750W:D

As said earlier I am mainly in RTS Gaming which isn't exactly GPU hungry. 560 Ti is Overkill I guess even at 1080P for RTS.

I got few resale offers from Local friends.

1. i5 2400 + P67A UD3R Motherboard = 12K
2. FX8350 + MSI 970 Motherboard = 17 K
3. i5 3770K + Z77 M3 SNIPER Motherboard = 29 K (This is kinda over the budget though)

Any suggestions?

dont go for already EOLed products(sandybridge in your case.) and there is no i5 3770k. did you mean i5 3570k or i7 3770k.? it is again an older gen cpu(ivybridge). better stick to the newer releases. z77 m3 sniper mobo sells for around 12k. so it must be i5 3570k,i guess. else the deal is pretty decent .also you dont want to go for a K series cpu if you are not into overclocking. better stick to the suggested config. intel offers slightly better gaming experience at your budget.
