mobo get MSI - 785G E-51 4.5k and PSU get corsair VX450 for about 4k and cabinet get Cooler Master Elite 360, also i suggest dont go for the HD4890 as it is very power hungry and get a HD 5770 for about 9.5k

where u'll get the rig from? also if u get the rig from guwahati, u'll have to spend lot more as AMD stuffs are rare here. so if for graphics card. anyway whats your total budget?

& DELL 22" (21.5") costs ~10k. checked ComputerHeart's price list 1 month ago. wil cost same rest where. order it straight from DELL, online.

AMD Phenom II X2 555BE + MSI 785G-E53 @ 10.5k OR Biostar TA790GX A3+ @ 6.5k
2x2GB 1333MHz Kingston/Transcend DDRIII RAM - 4.4k
2x500 GB WD Blue @ 4.7k
Sapphire HD5770 1GB GDDR5 @ 10k(FOR FUTURE)
Benq G2220HD @ 7.6k OR Benq G2420HD @ 10.5k
CM Elite 310 @ 1.5k
Corsair VX450 @ 3.8k(ASSUMING YOU'LL BE BUYING HD5770) OR Gigabyte Superb 460w @ 2.2k

1. If you go for the MSI mobo and the Gigabyte PSU then G2420HD will fit in your budget.
2. Otherwise you may choose G2220HD along with Biostar mobo along with Corsair PSU, which will be more future proof if you want to go for HD5770.

You don't get Corsair VX450W for Rs.3K. It retails for Rs.4K.
For Rs.3K one gets Corsair VX400W or Seasonic S18 bronze 380W.

if i assume that u r going to play just games ,then
mobo-go for msi 785g(the best option under 5k)
gfx card-hd4890 wont be available in 10k range
go for hd 5770(gr8 performance and consumes pretty less power)
cabby+psu-go for what noas suggested(note- vx 450w is around 3.9-4.2k)

so where and what should i buy?

visit Computer Heart, Datamation & Jain infotech (its on the opposite side of the Ulubari flyover. on one side its CompHrt, on other jain). & ask them for the prices of the computer parts u want 2 buy. write the parts & make 3 xerox copies. show one 2 each shop.

well you not yet told your budget & usage. i think its primarily for gaming (u mentioned HD4890). so tell budget so i can give u list of the components that u should find here. don't expect high end motherboards & all. may need to order it through the shops.
