Hey guys...i have been searching the net for quite sometime and still unable to decide if I shd go with an AMD powered build or the intel chips. I really need the PC for everday use and for some serious gaming ( Watchdogs, BF4, Blacklist and the like ). So I really need you guys to help me on deciding this build. ( no multimedia editing ) . Things I do not need : Monitor and Optical drive.
I have a Seagate ST3160215AS ATA - 120 gb ( shd I change it ? ) I have 2x 1 TB external HDDs ( 1 seagate , 1 WD ).
Max Budget : INR 40000 ( $ 650 )
PS: I'm from India.

You have to spend alot more than that for a system to last 6 years without upgrade, and still be mid-range.

However, Intel have some very clockable chips now. My I5-2500K (default 3.3Ghz) runs rock stable at 4.7Ghz with stock cooling and default voltage, and I have yet to see a I5-2500K that doesn't do 4.5Ghz stable. See if you can get a second hand system from someone you know and trust for cheap with a I5 cpu ending in K. The K means the bus multiplier is not locked, makes clocking it up easy.

It will not last 6 years, but you can get it for way under 600 and clock it up to a $600 system with ease. Just make sure the bios is tweakable. RAM is cheap so get some DDR-1600 Mhz for it if it doesn't already have it.

The PSU you selected isn't very good. Corsair HX, AX and TX PSUs are very good but they're quite expensive. You can go with an XFX, Seasonic or Antec PSU but I don't know much about them other than they are good quality brands based on what little I've read.

That build will in no way last more than 2 years at most. A $1000-1500 build really only lasts 3-4 years. Technology advances very fast. If you're fine with sticking to the bare minimum it'll last a few years but you're using already 'outdated' parts. In a couple of years everyone will be moving onto DDR4 RAM which is apparently much faster than DDR3. The only thing I see that could last 5 years is your HDD, but by then you'd probably want to replace it with newer HDDs (or an SSD by then).
