^What IS your budget?

well with this config in delhi its like 25k. asked today itself.
so i can stretch a lil or reduce a lil on some things or the other but it should be in nearly same price range.

^change 9600gt to 9800gt...only 1k more...or go for a hd4770...E7400 can easily be overclock, just google for guides....as for power supply, dont get cooler master, they have a bad rep, get the corsair vx450 for 4k...your mobo might be a bottle neck to OCing...get a better one like the MSI p43 neo f for 4.5k
