if your gaming you want 4-8 gig, video editing up to 32gig, web browsing and email 2 gig is fine.
2x2gig is the best ofption for a budget build never buy just a single stick of ram as you wont see its true performance in single channel mode.
even if you only buy 2 gigs of ram make sure you buy 2x1gig rather than 1x2 gig...

Okay. My main purpose will be with heavy photo editing softwares. Little bit gaming too. Movies,music..simple. Someone said 32 gb for video editing!!! 3-2!!!?? Now,for my photographic purpose,how much gig would deal with suffiency? Will be a 4gb+a 2 gb good or same gig dual sticks?
Guys,still learning. Disturbing you for one more thing. Does a motherboard really matter for this 8 core processor,AMD 3.5 GHz AM3+ FX 8320 8 Core Piledriver or a MoBo for 110 usd would do the work? Actually I want a FAST machine. Thats why I chose this processor but budget talks. What are your opinions on the mother board?

Something like the asus M5A99X EVO R2.0 is a good mobo for its price.
Motherboard: Asus M5A99X EVO R2.0 ATX AM3+ Motherboard ($107.99 @ NCIX US)

If you don't want to mess with mail in rebates, the Gigabyte ga-970a-ud3p is an excellent board under $100. I know flipkart sells Gigabyte boards, but not sure if they have this particular model. What is your budget for motherboard in your currency?

for photo editing 4-8 gigs will be enough. i mention 32gigs for video editing but thats the extreme. most will get away with 8 without issue.
its just if that was your primary usage i would have recommended the maximum ram your motherboard would allow.

You need a dedicated GPU with FX unless you get a cheap 760g motherboard like the Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3. That board will handle an FX 8320 up to FX 8350 speeds, but I wouldn't go higher. FX chips do not come with integrated graphics.

You can get a cheaper motherboard if you don't want to overclock and get a cheap Graphic Card like the GT 210 for nothing other than powering your displays. Something like this:
Asus M5A97 LE Motherboard: http://www.flipkart.com/asus-m5a97-le-motherboard/p/itmdkzrdgyysrfeh
Zotac Nvidia GT210: http://www.flipkart.com/zotac-nvidia-geforce-gt210-1-gb-ddr3-graphics-card/p/itmd4rc6vam3r9fy
Though I would recommend you to get a better graphics card if budget permits.
BTW: He is from India so please try to quote him prices in Rupees from flipkart.com or so.

If he isn't overclocking he should just get the gigabyte 760g board I mentioned.
