For i5 rig go for the above suggested i5 configs and instead of hd6950 get hd 6850 and it will bring down the cost to about 45k, and the rig you mentioned is not good coz of the graphics card

OK, thanks for the suggestion. But can I use HD6850 with the configuration mentioned by me? What is the cost of HD6850 :?:

OK, if I add the Corsair VX450W(without the HD6850), then the cost will be Rs.43,100. But, can you mention me the cost of the HD6850? Which brand should I buy it from? What will be the total cost after that :?:

You have to copy that questions and answer them in this thread

Hope you will not overclock..
Intel i5 2400 @ 9.7k
Intel H67 BL B3 @ 5.6k
G.Skill Ripjaws F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL @ 2.5k
Seagate 500GB 7200.12 / WDC Blue 500GB @ 1.7k
Corsair VX450 @ 3.5k
NZXT Gamma @ 2k
Sappire HD6850 @ 9.2k
BENQ G2220HD @ 7.3k
LG 22X SATA DVD @ 0.9k
Logitech KB + Mouse @ 0.7k
Altec Lansing VS2621 @ 1.4k
Numeric 800VA @ 2.5k
Microsoft Xbox 360 Controller @ 1.1k

Total = 48.1k
This overshoot your budget by 3.1k, but it really worth the money.

Guys, at a budget of 45K, if the Op goes for Sandy Bridge, then he has to sacrifice the GPU performance, most important thing for gaming.

My suggestion will be:
Phenom II X4 955BE @ 6.3K
MSI 890GXM-G65 @ 7K
Sapphire HD 6870 @ 12K or Sapphire HD 6950 1 GB @ 14.8K

This configuration will offer him better gaming performance than the Sandy Bridge one. Also Phenom II can be Overclocked to increase the performance.

Thanks for ur suggested config. I m not into overclocking. Can I keep all other components as i thought earlier?

If u can sacrifice USB 3.0 n sata 6.0GB/s, get DH61WW - 3.5K total will reduce to 44.3K

^^ or cut back on the UPS if you don't live in a bad quality power area..

@Manju: IMO FSP Saga II 500w is also ok, as it will reduce 1.5k from the total.

Ya it would but no furthur upgrades can be done in future...

If that is ok for OP he can very well go for it...

@Manju: I'm not sure, that Logitech MK100 include mouse, i mean are you sure its a combo.

& OP can also opt for Tacen supero 600w, 80% + efficiency & price is just 3.5k

^^ Ya sure...
MK100
M(mouse) K(Keyboard) 100

but the price mentioned in the logitech site is Rs. 725. & Thanks for the link.

^^Overpriced...

@ op

Again i have to say that mailme.manju's config is the way to go. No point in going for amd 955be cause its not in the same league of the i5 2400. Going for sandybridge is future proff because they will support future ivybridge 1155 6 core and 8 core cpu's.

Now i will say to cut down on the board a bit by getting MSI H61M-E23 (B3) @ 3.6k. Now with the money saved , go for the radeon 6870 1gb @ 12k. Now the gpu is powerfull enough to challenge a 955be based config at the same pricepoint.
