What I want to achieve:
* Run Dota 2 on Ultra Settings
* Vsync Enabled/ON
* Stable 60 FPS (No Drops)
Here is my planned RIG:
CPU = Intel G2030 3.0Ghz
GPU = Palit GTX 750 Stormx OC
RAM = 8GB ddr3 1333
Display = 20" screen with 1600x900 Resolution
Can I achieve my Goal using the specs mentioned above?
Need help and suggestions. As much as possible, I want the maxwell gpus to save electricity.
Thanks!

Best solution
well, SOTA2 has fairly low requirements. I saw something for a medium 1920x1080 build.
Here's my best guess for a 1600x900 ultra build:
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant / Benchmarks
CPU: AMD Athlon X4 760K 3.8GHz Quad-Core Processor ($84.74 @ Amazon)
Motherboard: MSI A55M-E33 Micro ATX FM2+ Motherboard ($39.99 @ Micro Center)
Memory: A-Data Plus Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($42.26 @ Amazon)
Storage: Western Digital RE3 250GB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($35.99 @ Amazon)
Video Card: PowerColor Radeon R7 260X 2GB Video Card ($112.98 @ Newegg)
Case: Rosewill REDBONE ATX Mid Tower Case ($28.25 @ Newegg)
Power Supply: Corsair Builder 430W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($34.99 @ Micro Center)
Total: $379.20
(Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available.)

IF you really have to have an Intel plus nvidia build but note, going AMD on both cpu and gpu will be cheaper and perform the similarly:
I would suggest you consider to increase your budget if you want a nice case.
Also whilst the Pentium is cheaper, an i3 would be better and less FPS drops.

Going ivybridge isn't much cheaper than Haswell. You could buy 4gb ram for now and later add another 4gb ram to make it 8gb.

its ok sir, i can find some ways to buy slightly used i3 ivy here as well as rams @ low price,.
so buttomline is, this specs can play dota 2 ULTRA w/ Vsync enabled on 1600x900:
CPU = Intel i3 ivy/haswell
RAM = 8gb ddr3 1333/1600
GPU = Palit GTX 750 stormX 1gb OC ddr5 128bit
CONFIRM???
It should averagely but expect fps drops around certain areas of the map or in teamfights
OMG! i hate fps drops,. i want stable 60 FPS no matter what the situation is. What will i change then?

EIther is fine. It is just the coding of the game that can cause fps drops. The game is not fully optimised even though it is out of beta there are some improvements that can be made. Patches from updates can cause these problems as well, it is just the coding being inefficient.

the 750 will only get you to medium-high settings.It can play ultra settings. A gtx 750 is slightly weaker than a R9 260X. A r9 260X can play at 94 FPS on ultra at 1080p. A gtx will be slightly lower than that.

the 750 will only get you to medium-high settings.It can play ultra settings. A gtx 750 is slightly weaker than a R9 260X. A r9 260X can play at 94 FPS on ultra at 1080p. A gtx will be slightly lower than that.
