Including more info regarding what are the main fields the computer will be used for (gaming/music/CAD/movies/etc) will be useful in prioritizing various components such as RAM, graphics card, hard disk capacity, etc...

I differ...

Processor should be 3200+ atleast....

ASUS A8N-E is fine..

Get the Corsair Ram if u can... 2x512Mb (Please dont get a 1Gb stick)

Please dont get any grap PSU and spend some on one since u have the budget...
colorsit makes good PSU´s

U can also get a SONY DVD writer, sony OEM´s are coming ceaper thses days... and the best...

I doubt if 3400+ will be available. I would have preferred the 3500+ as the price difference between 3400+ and the 3500+ is very less. 3500+ is costing around 11k these days. The XFX 6800GS is costing around Rs.13500, excluding 4% VAT.

And yes, 400W PSU should be enough for this one, unless you are thinking of SLI sometime in the future. When you get SLI, make sure you have 500W at least for system stability.
