I want to build a new PC for my personal computing. I usually wanna do moderate 720p medium to high graphics gaming and use softwares like corel draw X6, visual basic .net, AutoCAD and other programming and designing softwares . I want a future proof processor which can be upgraded in future according to my needs and budget ofcourse without changing the mobo i mean socket type.
Please help me out with my build by suggesting a processor because m really confused between AMD and Intel. Some says FX 6300 is better and some says i3-4130 is better... idk where to go !
Also, I am planning to get AMD 7770 HD 1gb GDDR5 graphic card which i think is sufficient for me but if there is any better alternative within this price range please suggest .

In games, both are about equal.
The FX 6300 is unlocked though, so get that.
If you are willing to spend around $20 more you can get a HD 7850 or a GTX 650 Ti Boost. They will max out everything on 720p and you will be able to do high levels of anti-aliasing.

Will FX 6300 handle all my required applications smoothly and what r the options for future upgrade ??
and in future should i focus on upgrading processor or GPU ?

650 ti 1gb and HD 7790 1gb are in my budget which should i get ?

It should, but that is my guess. I really don't know how intense your programs are, but I know that the FX series is decent at that kind of stuff.
2. You should focus more on the GPU.
3. The 7790 is better.

i have done a little research after ur suggestion and i find that FX 6300 (AM3+ Socket) is a decent processor as compared to i3-4130 (LGA1150 Socket) but in future i can upgrade i3 to higher LGA1150 processors like quad core and K series i5s.
The main noticeable point in FX 6300 over i3 is unlocked multiplier and for moderate gaming rite now i have no need of overclocking and besides i think i3's 3.4 ghz speed should be sufficient for me.
I don't find any noticeable FX series processor after FX 6300 in terms of performance keeping in mind the price to performance ratio and performance of quad core intel i5 series. So, my point is i will be blocked if i choose AM3+ processor and i have future options in LGA1150.
