Just have a look at this thread: *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/pc-components-configurations/171444-gaming-rig-budget-43k.html
I've suggested a configuration there and if you remove the components you already have, it will come pretty much near to your budget.

Thanks that's the config i had in mind but i don't want gigabyte motherboard so suggest me ASUS motherboard

IF you want an ASUS mobo go with this P8B75M-LX But remember only 2 slots for RAM whereas the Gigabyte has 4 slots and also more VFM....

in case there are multiple brands of repute, its better to target products which are better VFM rather than trusting a brand blindly..

go with Cilus's suggestion.

huh once had a failure with gigabyte board so not willing even to check out their latest MB's

For AMD config, go with FX-8350 @ 11.5K + Asus M5A97 @ 6.4K

fx 8350 (11000)
Asus M5A97 (6400)
G.Skill ripjawsx /sniper (whichever is cheaper) 1600 MHz 4 Gb (1700)
MSI HD7770 (8000)
Corsair CX500v2 (3500)
WD blue / seagate barracuda 500 GB (3000)
Dell st220l (8500)

total: 42100

thanks guys, but keeping the budget in mind did a small edit from what you'll suggested and will msi hd7770 GPU sufficient for all my maya rendering and v-ray.. suggestions plz

fx 8350 (11000)
Asus M5A97 (6400)
G.Skill ripjawsx /sniper (whichever is cheaper) 1600 MHz 4 Gb (1700)
MSI HD7770 (8000)
Corsair CX500v2 (3500)
WD blue / seagate barracuda 500 GB (3000)
Dell st220l (8500)

FX 6100
ATI 7850 2gb

FX 6100 is okay for your other stuffs apart from gaming. In gaming, only the very recent titles like Crysis 3 run well in this Processor but in most of the other games, it trails behind even the older Phenom II X4 Processors.Better stick with FX-8350.

Hd7770 is okay for rendering as it has good computation power. And the config I suggested is in your budget at 42k.

Toshiba 1 TB HDD SATA 3 is Available for 4k. You can consider this Option too. For More 1k ,you get more 500 GB

W

thanks guys finally decided to go for Intel

Intel i5 3570
Asus p8h77-m (suggest any intel MB which is equal to this board )
G-skill single stick 8gb 1600mhz
Sapphire 2gb hd7850
Seagate 1 TB hdd sata
coolermaster thunder 500w or Corsair cx 500w

Guys any suggestions or should i go ahead... thanks

Well, lucky for you, I just found the motherboard for you:-
ECS A970M-A-Deluxe @ 5.075K : Theitdepot - Buy ECS A970M-A-Deluxe 32GB DDR3 AMD Motherboard online in india

This motherboard does have good reviews too. Check here for review: ECS A970M-A Deluxe Motherboard Review - Overclockers Club

Buy the Corsair CX500 V2 and not the Cooler Master one.
