ashwin.natesan , just wanna know one thing, do you already have an AM3/AM3+ motherboard with you? If not, then you can look for Intel config too as they provide better gaming performance. Core i5 2400 will be best for you which comes around 11.5K. However, the street prices in Kolkata are lower than that.
