Hello.First of all,by "cabinet" you mean case,right?Second,I don't think you need to upgrade your motherboard.I think you want to have as much FPS as you can,right?Then you need to upgrade your graphic card.Can you tell me the site where you want to buy?So I can find something that fits for you.

Why do you need a new motherboard? Your current motherboard supports the latest AMD processors, if your looking for a performance boost keep your motherboard and throw a new CPU into it. Being that I am not in India and don't know the normal outlets I can't really say what products to get though. In my opinion though, coolermaster makes some really good cases and I believe you will be happy with what ever choice you make from that manufacturer.

Get the ASUS M5A97 board. Its great.

For cabinet, get a Corsair spec 02. Only 3700/- and a lot of cabinet for that money.

PSU: Seasonic S12II 520. Best PSU out there below 5000/-.

Do i really need 520watts psu for that specs i mentioned above? I can't afford it right now....Will 450watts be enough?

Yes, 450 is enough, if it is a right 450. How much is your budget for psu?

Do yourself a favour and throw away that bulzer you have.

Around 3000-4000 rupees will be affordable.

for that money the best you can get is a 970 chipset The Asus one is around 6.5 K I guess. All of them are pretty much the same. For a brand I always use Asus and Gigabyte. So get any 970 that fits your budget.

You need to buy it from the stores. I got mine from the computer market in my city. I wouldn't get any components on-line, because they are much cheaper in the stores.
