Processor : I selected the Llano Procs for low budget better graphics.But i can't decide which one of the following is a better choice.
A4 X2 3400 2.7 Ghz and A6 X3 3500 2.1Ghz
A4's Speed exceeds the turbo speed of A6. But A6 has a 3MB L2 cache.

A4 X2 3400 2.7 Ghz and A6 X3 3500 2.1Ghz
a4 is not good, a6 is better .
a6-3500 is tri core cpu, while a4-3400 is duel core with reduced graphics capability
a6-3500 specifications
a4-3400 specifications

CPU
Intel 2.6 GHz LGA 1155 Dual Core G620 Processor Price: Rs. 3466
it is 50-60% powerful and 40-50% in single threaded and 20-25% and 40-50% in multithreaded than a6-3500 and a4-3400 respectively

GPU
HIS AMD/ATI Radeon HD 6750 GPU 1 GB GDDR5 Graphics Card Price: Rs. 6160
to save money you can switch to hd6670 instead of 6750, but try to get hd6750
Sapphire AMD/ATI Radeon HD 6670 1 GB DDR3 Graphics Card Price: Rs. 5000

Motherboard
ASRock H61M-HVGS Motherboard Price: Rs. 2730
or
ASRock H61M/u3s3 (3.3K) with usb3 and sata3

RAM
2 X ADATA Premier DDR3 2 GB PC RAM (AD3U1333C2G9-R) Price: Rs. 748 X 2
(probably it will run at 1066mhz with reduced latency)

Thanks for your replies. I will use this system around 1 to 1 1/2 years only. So i don't want future upgradability. So i want the system to be less cost.Also, I must use discrete GPU? I am thinking that the internal GPU will Suffice for mid Range Gaming(not the latest titles).

No discrete GPU is necessary if you use you 17" monitor,my suggestion is buy your 3650 system use it for some days without GPU if not satisfied with IGP then opt for GPU.

for more GPU power you can always consider crossfireing a amd 66xx class graphics card with A6 3650 GPU.
Which is not possible if you go intel way.

a6-3650 is 4 core apu with better integrated graphics
a6-3500 is 3 core apu

2x will make it a 2 channel setup, means total bandwidth will be doubled, means ram will be able to give upto 12800x2=25600MB/s bandwidth, and apu are benefited by more ram bandwidth
while 1x4GB will be single channel only
