Hello Friends

My name is Michael and I am from India. I am an author by profession and love to play games (all the latest titles). I am planning to setup a publishing house. I want a PC, which can handle book publishing, video and audio editing and gaming.

I want to go with a red themed PC.

The budget is around 80,000 Indian Rupees and can go for another 10,000 extra.
I did some research and I have some ideas, please correct me or suggest a better option.

AMD FX 8350
No idea on the Motherboard
Corsair H100i Cooling unit
Ripjaw GSkill 16 Gb RAM
Monitor - Dell 21 or 27, should I go for 3D

Please suggest the other components that go with it and also a good UPS

I would go with this one personally, overclock the CPU to atleast @4,5GHz which is extremely easy this days and take the ***t out of that PC with everything but the most experts here are going to say NO! DONT GO AMD. INTEL BEST AHAWIEHIASDPOIVPOJA and etc. So here is the second build with i7. Have to sacrifice the 980. Sorry brotha.

to above: no where near as easy as that :/ indian prices are a lot harder than just a straight currency conversion:
to OP: links to flipkart, its around 90k INR, but it'll do everything you want it too, but its not sli ready or overclockable, but should still last for 1440p gaming and well into the next few gens at decent settings:
I7 4790: http://www.flipkart.com/intel-i7-4790-processor/p/itmdyzqrz3bgz2du?pid=PSRDYY77VAWBHSG3&srno=b_9&ref=dc1c51ff-4c4e-403a-bc3b-39c6defe5911
16GB of RAM: http://www.flipkart.com/g-skill-ripjawsx-ddr3-16-gb-2-x-8-gb-pc-dram-f3-12800cl10d-16gbxl/p/itmd8bc6bjdvpucr?pid=RAMD8BC6AV3GXS9G&srno=b_1&ref=4dbab6c0-e029-452d-ae01-b64b208081c9
seasonic 620W PSU: http://www.flipkart.com/seasonic-m12ii-620-bronze-evo-620-watts-psu/p/itmdxyehhsqhegjh?pid=PSUDXYEHHAZSV8ZF&srno=b_8&ref=c5077679-8f5c-4ae7-a33e-a668439fc06a
red motherboard: http://www.flipkart.com/asrock-h97-killer-motherboard/p/itme4hzqky3skymh?pid=MBDE4HZQSZTSHHAX&srno=b_13&ref=6eb897a7-05ee-4266-9ba9-5a94c389afe4
Storage: http://www.flipkart.com/seagate-barracuda-1-tb-desktop-internal-hard-drive-st1000dm003/p/itmd6uyn8vr4hrma?pid=IHDD6UYN8VR4HRMA&srno=b_4&ref=6672838a-64b7-47da-8c66-d7a3f0de05da
SSD: http://www.flipkart.com/kingston-sv300s37a-120g-internal-hard-drive/p/itmdhdk6xxd8rs8q?pid=IHDDHDK6XXD8RS8Q&srno=b_1&ref=08c26a39-1fa0-47d9-9af7-f9d4143c23a9
Zotac GTX 970: http://www.flipkart.com/zotac-nvidia-geforce-gtx-970-graphics-card/p/itme2w4hn4mn28ev?pid=GRCE2C3GYCYTHZMC&srno=b_43&ref=609eb8b4-037e-4027-bbc9-20084a8a3d1d
quick note: if you like you can take out the SSD in favour of an MSI twin frozr 970 that is red.
big red case: http://www.flipkart.com/circle-cc830-full-tower-cabinet/p/itme4anfzq8ggyzh?pid=CABE4ANFG3G8HVJ6&srno=b_2&ref=c18ea05a-7ff5-4574-96e0-23dbcfd6610b

I think if you want to make it more red, then putting in a couple of corsair af 120 (red LED) fans and a cathode lighting strip is a great idea.
