So I need a good enough CPU/MOBO, RAM and a PSU (I have HD 5670 gpu and will hold onto that for sometime ).
(I want a PSU cuz my current PSU is like the ones that come with the cabinet and I don't trust it, already suffered from damaged components in the past.I'm just telling)
Suggestions? Oh yeah total budget for all of that stuff = Rs 16000.

I guess the monitor is 18.5", not 19.5". I guess the resolution is either 1366X768 or 1440X900. Your current config is well suited to handle games on that resolution, no reason to update any sooner.
Wait couple of months, untill September as AMD's new Bulldozer processors are gonna be released on that time which may reduce the price of the CPU/mobo due to tough competetion.

Right. You can get the PSU right now, I think Corsair GS600 is a fairly good option at 4k. BTW, what's your total budget?
