Well, I am from India. (My approx budget is Rs. 30000)
I will be ordering parts from US, so , No need to worry.

Any help would be appreciated.

Nicely done. Overclocking that 8350? If so, get a better cooler.

Why spend $130 on a SSD when you can get one for $110 and throw an extra $200 into the mouse and keyboard. The mouse n keyboard you chose aren't good for gaming.

I'd suggest a fx-6300 instead of a fx-8350, and overclock the fx-6300...with the savings drop it into your case??

At 1366x768 the 7850 is overkill. Are you planning on upgrading your monitor?

I will not be overclocking. Just for performance that fx 8350
I think I should remove that SSD and downgrade to a traditional HDD of 1tb or 500gb. Later in the future I would upgrade to an SSD.
I do like an FX 8350 because that's the AMD's Top Line Desktop Processor.
7850 is for current games and for maxing out some of the upcoming games. If I could not max them out 4 to 5 years later, then I would Upgrade the GFX Card or Do a Crossfire of two 7850's

The idea of Crossfire/SLI is laughable for one monitor. Seriously, don't do it. You would be causing some unneeded headaches.

Look for "Combo deals" from newegg.com You can get a good CPU + motheboard for much less.

I'd suggest looking for a i5 : like 3550p.

Would you say 10% gaming 90% work, or 90% gaming 10% work?

I think your right. Stick with a HDD and get a SSD later. At your price it's better to have enough storage. Overall the build you created is pretty good.

you'll be ordering parts from US, so, no need to worry - have you considered the customs duty and shipping in ordering from the US? or do you have any special connection at the Indian Customs?

for running Windows on a PS4, that is a highly speculative statement at this point in time
even the homebrew OS on PS3 was very difficult for the community to get thanks to the PS3's architecture

but if you do succeed in running Windows on PS4, you can be famous ;) 

better stick to the PC config for now to play your favorite game :)

no, you cannot order parts from US without any worry and there are no cheap costs elswhere
buy local and insist on a bill/invoice for peace of mind

PS = USD 600 is almost INR 33500 and not INR 30000
but doesn't matter because your budget is now INR 45000

calculate duties and taxes
