Here in local accent a cabinet with all things inside is referred as a cpu. :lol:

Secondly, here in our place there is Intel ka bol bala. I want to break the jinx.

Plz suggest sumthing from AMD range and should be equivalent to i5 range.

As for Gfx card if nvidia is the choice then let it be.

Looking forward....

@op you are too much demanding in 25k. the rig i suggested you is perfetly fine for your needs

Correct. Unless he can extend the budget this is the best he can do. Extend your budget to around 35k and then you can get amd.

To accommodate, I'll use my Ext. HDD as the primary HDD so skip the same.

Regarding Cabinet, PSU and ODD I'll arrange it from other sources.

So, suggest for a good cpu + motherboard + ram + gfx card only.
