In TE, i saw someone selling his Asus P5Q for 2.5k. Grab that.
For RAM get G-Skill 2GB enuff as u already have RAM.
PSU - FSP Saga II 500W @ 2.2k
HDD - WD Blue 500GB/1TB
Cabinet - CM 690

Considering u dnt have a budget

Atleast tell what cpu you have and what other components you have.

Here it is.. I hope this is what you asking for! if not them plz tell me.

Then go with full upgrade, get a Quad Core like i5 and 6GB RAM and get VX550W to have more future-proof upgrade. Let wait for others to give suggestion on Mobo for i5 or AMD counterparts

Replace your CPU too.
And mention a budget if you want us to help.

I feel it makes sense to replace your processor too.

Tell us about your overall budget.

You need a discrete gpu for the above system to work. Its compulsary.

Yes mind that i5 bundle you have to use separate GPU , you did mention you already have a GFX Card but please mention all of your current config.

@debrajrakshit: which graphic card u have???

I have NVDIA GeForce 8400GS with 512mb of RAM

Hope this one is helpfull

Also for Motherboard I want with a good colling system. In case I have to increase my budget for rs 5k, it's ok. Thanks ALL
