hi i still hav my prev hard disks which are lik 240 GB so dont really need a new 1 n i also hav my dvd writer n wireless keyboard n microsoft gaming mouse which i m familiar with so they are also not req.

wats the usual cost of a phaenom as i think tat shud b a gud 1 as my first was a 2600 xp+ which was really reliable n cud really handle multitaskin well.. tats more i than i can say fr my intel which came l8r on...

in that case, I would suggest you to wait coz:
1) Phenom X3 810 is to be released in India
2) Drastic price cuts from ATI and nVidia in place (done in USA already).
3) seagate 7200.12 to be released in India. 7200.11 have lot of firmware issues.

If it's urgent:

Phenom X4 920: 10k
Gigabyte mobo based on 780G chipset : 4k-5k.
2x2Gb DDR2 800MHz

And then wait for few days. May be upto two weeks. HD4850 and 9800GTX+'s prices are going to come down by 1k-2k.

thanx mate

Phenom X4 920: 10k
There is one Biostar motherboard, forgot model number and it's excellent VFM. Dig out digit forum and you will find it.
2x2Gb DDR2 800MHz

Dell 198WFP: 7k-7.5k
Palit HD4850 Sonic: 9k

APC UPS500VA : 2k
cabinet without SMPS: your wish
Cooler Master 500W PSU: 1.9k or Corsair VX450 : 3k-3.5k

XBOX 360 controller for windows: 1.5k (this is a must for gaming)

and if you can put more money, get Corsair VX550W PSU for future safety.

^^ May be you talk about the Biostar TP790GX one desiibond

Biostar 790GX A2+ @ 5.2k
Phenom II 940 B.E. @ 11.5k

Mid Range PC, follow other's advices for phenom...

And the get Tagan 600W SMPS (or something similar)
Palit HD4850 (Sonic edition costs more but gives bit more FPS I guess)

^^^ palit HD 4850 standard edition is enough , no need for sonic edition wont be big difference

e)hard disk- Western Digital 500GB 16mb Buffer (Caviar Blue) = Rs. 2900.
f)keyboard- Logitech/Microsoft standard = Rs. 400.
g)mouse- Logitech MX518 - Rs. 1300. (Mousepad- any, 100 bucks )
h)controller- XBox 360 controller - Price- Dunno (2300 bucks, maybe?)
i)display - Samsung 20" 2033 = Rs. 8.5K.
j)psu- Tagan Stonerock 500W = Rs. 3500.
k)ups- Rs. 1000
l)optical drive- LG DVD writer = Rs. 1200
m)cabinet- NZXT Alpha - Rs 3000.
