You suggested me a 550W SMPS, but in Flipkart, it's shown the Graphic Card which you recommended needs 600W Power Supply. And which heatsink to buy?

Amd Fx 6300 @ 7400

Asus M5A97 R2.0 @ 7200

G-skill Ripjaws 8gb ddr3 @ 5200

Zotac Gtx 760 2gb @ 20000

Wd cavier blue 1TB @ 4000

Seasonic s12 520w @ 4200

Asus 24x black dvd @1000

Dell S2240l Led @ 8800

Corsair 200r cabinet @ 3100

Total - rs 61,000

Here is much balance config with HD monitor

For any system with single gpu, 500w or more is enough.

+1 for this.

@OP; you should sell your current monitor and get a new full HD monitor. The graphic cards been suggested are overkill for your current monitor.

Then you should go for this instead:

AMD FX 8350 -12500
Asus M5A97 R2.0 -7000
Corsair Vengeance 8GB 1600MHz -5200
Corsair 300R Windowed side panel -5200
Asus 24B5ST DVD-RW -1000
WD Caviar Blue 1TB -4500
Corsair TX550M -6500
Zotac GTX650 Ti Boost 2GB -12500
Dell 22" S2240L LED IPS -8500
TOTAL -62,900.

The one suggested by Ashish has a better GPU while the one suggested by bavusani has a better CPU. And I guess GPU matters when it comes to gaming. So I'll buy the config Ashish has suggested. Waiting for replies...

Need replies

that gpu is not a good choice for 1080p displays.
i agree with Ashish's suggestion.

Guys.. Why not a Intel processor?

intel system will cost 6k more which will compromise the gpu

I'll be buying this config next week. Any changes needed? And can I use NZXT Guardian 921 instead of Corsair 200r?

can you extend a little bit? i suggest tto get amd r280x for 23.5k in md computers. it is equivalent to 7970. also try to get seasonic s12ii 620. for case try betfenix merc alpha. or get a cheaper one now to get a better gpu and psu. upgrade cabby later as soon as you get money.

or cut down ram to 4gb as 280x is worth over 760 anyday if money is a problem.

Will the 280x support the mentioned motherboard? If yes, I'll get it. I already have a dell dimension e520 pc. Will these components fit in my cabinet?

yes 280x will support and all components will fit

Cool. Thanks

Just fyi fx 6300 is close in gaming perf. To an i3.don't let "6-coars" fool you

I'd not recommend getting a 280X with a 6300. A build should be more balanced to give the optimum performance even if it is meant for gaming.

I'd recommend go for an i5 4430 + R9-270X
2 years down the line you can upgrade your gpu.

But if you go for 6300+280X/760 , you wont be able to upgrade gpu because the 6300 will hugely bottleneck your next[future] gpu hence decreasing the lifetime of your build.

FX-6300 is capable enough to handle GTX 760 and it will handle 280X also with small bottleneck, not very huge.

But when he wants to upgrade to his next gpu [IN probably 2-3 years time] he will have to buy a new CPU [+mobo] to avoid bottleneck, whereas if he goes for i5 [and a 270X - 15.5k] he can easily upgrade his gpu down the line [with newer technology] without buying new cpu+mobo

you could also consider fx 8350

One can either go with 280x and not upgrade for at least 4 years or get a 270x or upgrade after 3-4 years. Plus, 6300 can be overclocked. I once ran GTX670 with my i3 2100 and if it could handle it and give 60+fps in crysis 3, then FX 6300 can do it undoubtedly.

If CPU bottleneck is that much of a concern, buy a FX-8320, learn how to overclock it and when you feel CPU is holding the GPU back, start to overclock the CPU.

I have decided to spend upto 60 to 65K.

How good is the below config ?

AMD FX 8350 -12500
Asus M5A97 R2.0 -7000
2 * G-skill Ripjaws 8gb ddr3 - 10400
WD Caviar Blue 1TB -4500
Zotac GTX650 Ti Boost 2GB -12500
Corsair 300R Windowed side panel -5200
Corsair TX550M -6500
Asus 24B5ST DVD-RW -1000

Can i get a better MB and GPU ?

Get be better GPU, try something like AMD HD 270X.

i would suggest seasonic s12 620w @5200, here you will save 1.5k and you can invest it in getting better gpu

do you really need 16 gb ram for now? if no ,then i suggest to get the following
AMD FX 8350 -12500
Asus M5A97 evo R2.0 -8000
1 * G-skill Ripjaws 8gb ddr3 - 5000
WD Caviar Blue 1TB -4000
sapphire hd 280x - 23500
antec gx700 -4000
seasonic s12 ii 620 -5200
Asus 24B5ST DVD-RW -1000
suggested gpu is much better than 650 ti boost
