jas i wanted a corsair psu as i hav heard they are good is it so
and about the cabinet i want to choose between nxzt haydes or haf 922
is their any oc version of gtx 570 available in indian market and how much would a gtx 580 cost
ill be gaming at 1920x1080 as there are no 1920x1200 monitors that i know of
and i wanted to ask a important question : will the integrated graphics interfere with my discreet graphics in any way and can i use both of them at the same time

Corsair PSus are great but the Seasonic PSU suggested by JAs is also very good and within your budget. Seasonic is almost as good as Corsair.

The , no you cannot use the integrated graphics with a high end card. There is a term called Hybrid Crossfire where if a very weak dedicated GPU is plugged into the motherboard, then both of them can work simultaneously to improve the performance slightly.
For example a motherboard with HD 4250 onboard graphics will work in Hybrid CF mode with HD 4330, HD 5450, but will not work with a HD 5670 or HD 6950.
