Need help building a gaming rig around 50k

P

So, basically i need help on building a rig around 50k. My sole purpose for it is for gaming. I don't need a monitor, keyboard or a mouse. As for the monitor i'm planning to go with this - Dell ST2420L

1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et cetera.')
Ans: For gaming. Mostly to be able to play most of the latest games in an above average setting.

2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: 50k around ~5k extra could be added.

3. Planning to overclock?
Ans: No.

4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: Windows 7/8

5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: 1Tb preferably

6. Do you want to buy a monitor? If yes, please mention which screen size and resolution do you want. If you already have a monitor and want to reuse it, again mention the size and resolution of monitor you have.
Ans: As mentioned previously, i'm going for this monitor. Dell ST2420L

7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: Monitor, keyboard and mouse

8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: In the coming week. Once i get a good config.

9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: Will be done by someone else.

10. Where do you live? Are you buying locally? Are you open to buying stuff from online shops if you don't get locally?
Ans: Bangalore. Will be buying most of the stuffs locally and yes last case scenario is look for it online if the parts aren't available.

11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: None.

Thanks in advance guys

[MENTION=135617]rijinpk1[/MENTION] are these price cuts due to Tonga gpu's being released?
Also do price cuts happen instantly in India, I mean soon as they will be announced by AMD?

When do you suppose this would happen? (sorry a total newbie here

No idea about release data but it should be within this month. then it will take a bout one month more for it to arrive in India.

So after some thinking here's my final system.

i5 4570
msi z97 mate
corsair vengeance 1x 4gb (will upgrade in the future)
Antec vp650p
wd blue 1tb (whats the difference between blue and green models?)
Deepcool tesseract(i hope its available when i buy, most websites are out of stock/ i'll need another cabinet in that case)
I will most problably go for r9 270x incase i dont get a good price for r9 280x.

Also i need some suggestions for a simple ups. Not for the backup but just to protect my pc against erratic current).

in-case if you are not able to find tesseract,you may look at betfenix merc alpha(usb 3).there are r9 280 and gtx 760 available between 270x and 280x.
wd blue is faster than green version. green version adjusts rotation speed to save power. anyway a hdd is not going to consume a lot of power. get blue.

Unfortunately i can't buy both of those cards. My budget became tighter. Also i'm in need of a UPS. Any basic ones out there?

Corsair CX500 -3500,
WD Caviar Blue 1TB -3800,
Deepcool Tesseract -2700,
Sapphire R9 280x 3GB -22000.
TOTAL -56,000.

[MENTION=286233]napsterv[/MENTION], the reason we suggest wd drives over seagate is because of the excellent trouble free rma experience from wd.

Oh Okay...

A friend of mine used the following config..maybe you could try this

intel i5 4670
Biostar Hi-Fi Z97WE motherboard
Coolermaster-hyper-212-evo
Sapphire-vaporx r 9 270x
Corsair ddr3 2 x 8gb
Corsair-550-watt PSU
Optical Drive- asus
Antec-x1-cpu-cabinet
WD-1-tb-internal HDD
Aoc-23-inch monitor

of course he had used Kingston SSD 32GB as well but if you avoid that this config should cost you approx 55K

Buddy, do some reading and be specific.

> I cannot find a single review of that motherboard on a trusted website. Any links will be helpful. And unless that board costs <8k, it's a total waste for that CPU.

> CM Hyper 212 EVO for a locked CPU is a waste of money. Stock cooler is enough.

> Which 'Corsair ddr3 2 x 8gb'- value select, vengeance, XMS? Kingston HyperX Fury will be cheaper and equally good.

> Which 'Corsair-550-watt PSU'- CX, VS, GS, RM? Price and quality varies drastically among these. CX and VS should be avoided at all costs for a gaming PC. GS is good but Seasonic S12II is available at same price and is much better.

> Again, WD has Blue, Green, Black and many more HDDs. Be specific. Blue is the most commonly suggested though.

> 'AOC 23 inch'? Chech AOC's website, there will be at least a dozen 23 inch monitors with price difference of more than 20k. Be specific dude.

im looking for something similar for my brother.
the above config seem nice
plus a dell s2240l and a Samsung ssd

Thanks for the feedback guys. At the end i got this rig and i'm more than happy with it.

intel i5-4570(13,000)
Msi H97m G43 (8400)
Corsair value select 1x 4gb(2850) - I will be getting another 4gb stick in the coming months
Wd blue (3450)
Antec VP650w(4600)
Antec x1 cabinet(2550)
Asus r9 280 direct cuII(16300) - Really happy i could get the r9 280

Total bill came out to 54000. Also i couldn't buy a UPS and i'm planning to get it the next month. But the APC 1100VA UPS at 5.5k seems kinda wallet heavy. Is there any alternative i could get? Coz i really don't want to be spending more extra money on a UPS.

congrats

pics please

you could have got a better cabinet though.
and this might be useful too *www.digit.in/forum/technology-news...-extension-campaign-select-products-psus.html
apc is reliable. get the 1100va. r else there is one from cyber power for 4.2k. i am not too sure about the quality.
