Processor alone may fetch good bucks. That is a really good processor. By the way, you still can pull few more years with it.

Rs. 3k -> G41 based motherboard
Trade the RAM -> old RAM + Rs. 600/- -> 4GB DDR-III 1333 MHz (market price Rs. 1100/-)
Rs. 2k -> for a Corsair VS450
Rs. 8k -> HD7770 1GB GDDR5

Rs. 13/14k upgrade, which last for another couple of years :p

dude, get a new computer.
the q6600 was a great cpu... in the past.

its just going to bottleneck anything thats above a HD6770 (forget about installing a GTX 780 on it, it will be like installing a 3-stage turbocharger in a tata nano)
