Hi,
I am thinking of building my own gaming PC, under $200.

Can you suggest some nice Processors, Graphic cards and their compatible Motherboard for gaming.

I don't need anything else, i just need a Processors, Graphic cards and a Motherboard, nothing else like case/hdd/ram/OS, etc i have those

So, i have a budget of $170 and i want a Processor, Graphic card and a motherboard and for gaming. I am not a hardcore gamer so even if the game will run on low or medium settings, it will work

Thanks

$170? That's a challenging build. Considering the operating system alone is about $80. Do you need a case?

At least a gddr5 gpu mate, gt610 is gddr3, not gaming at all.
A gtx 650 will be ok, europe price is 100 euros.

Just save up your money. You aren't going to get anything worth while at 170 bucks.

Like i said earlier here in India 170 bucks are decent enough to get a nice processor GPU and a motherboard, check out this website - http://www.flipkart.com/search?q=graphic+card+&as=off&a...
and suggest me something which is cheap like under Rs.4000 and good too!!
Thanks

Except its not. The parts you had listed might get you into playing some games on low from 5 years ago but nothing even relatively recent. I had a look at the website and there is no even halfway decent GPUs for 4k Rs.

At least grab up a 7750(ddr5, ddr3 is lame)/GTx 750. If you cant afford that grab a 6670 DDR5 off ebay for about 60-70USD.

You'd get a lot more performance out of either an FM2 board + athlon x4 740k or possibly a used AM3 board + 6300? If you can't afford those the only other option is to check out ebay for a used phenom 2 x4. If any of those options are available in your area and in your budget, grab em.

If you have DDR2 RAM, that is not going to work. You will have to buy DDR3 RAM
I also definitely think that you need a new PSU

So how much is your total budget in INR for CPU, mobo, GPU, RAM, PSU?
And yeah you need to increase your budget by quite a lot
