Being a fanboy always ends up in your money being wasted.

11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans:

I have a core i3 4130 + B85M-D3H for 13k shipped from Hyderabad bought only last month from Arun Computers,CTC,Secunderabad. I was thinking of getting AMD FX 4300 instead just to be future proof in case games ever require 4 cores or so.

antec has two 450 Watt models .vp450 an vp450p. vp450 is older. vp450p is the newer version. you should get vp450p only.

vp450p is cheaper on snapdeal.
for mobo, check in other shops also. ram support depends on mobo too. h81 s1 should easily support 1600mhz. hyperx blu is available at both speeds.
