Well, I dont think gt630 is any good for gamin and also it will not compliment your setup.

i5 3570k (14000)
MSI z77a g45 (9500)
G.Skill RipjawsX 1600 MHz 8 GB x2 (3000x2) or maybe a single B GB stick?
Sapphire HD7950 3 GB vapourX (20000)
Arctic silver 5 (550)

Total: 50050
 
^ computer components at flipkart are overpriced. Chec here:SAPPHIRE GRAPHICS CARD HD 7950 VAPOR-X 3GB DDR5 OC card is available for 21600 500 shipping (max) at mdcomputers. You can easily get this card for 20k locally.

GT 630 is a joke if your requirement is "heavy gaming".

Buy HD 7950 from MD Computers like harshil suggested.

Trust me, spend a little less on the GPU and upgrade to a FHD Monitor..
That 16 inch monitor is a joke compared to the might of the GPU
My Suggestion
I5 3550 - Rs 10.6 k (ebay)
MSI B75- 5K
G.Skill RipjawsX 1600 MHz 8 GB Rs 3000
Dell 222SL 8.5k
Just spend the rest of your cash on the best GPU available
HD 7850 1GB- Rs 13k
or sell the GT630
and add another 2k to GPU to buy HD 7850 2GB or GTX 660

SLI with GT630 :lol: :D

go with the 7950. its highly OC-able. and when your uncle comes just get a FHD monitor.. but dont go for a multi monitor setup. 7950 is not enough for multimonitor.

on the other hand, you could get a 7870CF.

Since you want to overclock get this

FX8350 - Rs 11400
Asus M5A97 - Rs 6700
Sapphire HD 7950 Vapor X/ Sapphire HD 7970 - Rs 21400/Rs 28500
G.Skill RipjawsX(1600MHz)(F3-12800CL9S) 4GB*2 - Rs 3500

Rs 43,000 (HD 7950)
Get a good cabinet and a cpu cooleer with the rest of the amount.

Rs 50,100 (HD 7970)
Now anything is possible!

Or

i5 3570K - Rs 13500
Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD3H - Rs 12075
Sapphire HD 7950 Vapor X - Rs 21400
G.Skill RipjawsX(1600MHz)(F3-12800CL9S) 4GB*2 - Rs 3500

Will you be using dual monitors? Well, if yes go for 7970, else get the 7950 and an ssd.

Buddy, SSD is a component which van be added anytime in future but GPU...I don't think we upgrade a 22K or 27K GPU in every couple of months. Now concentrate on the core components like CPU, Motherboard, GPU, PSU etc to make a solid and long lasting rig. Add the SSD later.
