Thanks @ saswat23
Please clarify the following points:-
1. what is differnce between Intel DH67VR-B3 & Intel DH67BL B3
2. instead of Cooler Master Elite 310, can i go for NZXT Gamma as i have heard it has better air flow n also if i want to accomodate a graphics card later it will be a better option?
3. i want a stable rig as this config will be running 20 days from a month
4. can u suggest a ups (not from the budget) which will give me atleast 30mins of back up - preferably APC ones?
5. this config is goin to be used by my dad for this office work so kindly suggest that whether a graphic card is required or not??
6. can FSP SAGA-II 500W handle the load of this rig or i need to get a better PSU?

Kindly Help!!!

forget your old kb and mouse. these days intel is following policy of removing old connectors like PS2 and IDE connectors etc.
or you will get maximum one PS2 on non-intel boards like Asus P8H61-M LE B3

Component | Make | Price Processor |Intel Core i5 2500|10000
Motherboard |Intel DH67BL-B3|5500
RAM |G.Skill F3-10600CL9S-4GBNT(4Gx1)|1200
HDD |Seagate 1TB 7200.12|2700
PSU |FSP Saga II 500W|2000
Case |CM Elite 430|2500
Keyboard & Mouse |Logitech MK200|700
| Total |24600

even this will suffice -

Component | Make | Price Processor |Intel Core i3 2100|5500
Motherboard |Asus P8H61-M LE B3|3300
RAM |G.Skill F3-10600CL9S-4GBNT(4Gx1)|1200
HDD |Seagate 1TB 7200.12|2700
PSU |FSP Saga II 500W|2000
Case |CM Elite 430|2500
Keyboard & Mouse |Logitech MK200|700

1. no idea of Delhi.
2. with vat

graphics are with processors now. sandybridge mobo doesnt have onboard gpu. you will get HD2000 with i5 2500, i5 2400, i3 2100. good enough for movies.
