Get it from local retailer, as Indian online are ridiculously high. You can easily save Rs. 5000. Just hold will suggest pretty good build based on Indian local retailer price. Cheers!

Overall a great value oriented build with no compromise on quality.
What the user "senseijtitus" says must be his own assumption. The prices I suggested are from local retail shops with taxes included . Online prices are ridiculously high. You can check yourself. The difference for all the parts I've suggested will surely be more than Rs. 4000 extra online compared to local retail shops.
If gaming Intel is the best option. I would not recommend the already aging 4 years old FX 6300/8320, even if overclocked like hell will not be able to catch up with Intel i5s. Also the non-K Intel will work fine with the default CPU cooler that comes with it. But for AMD FX processors you need at least a decent cooler like Hyper 212X EVO which would cost another Rs. 3000. The combo user "senseijtilus" talking about for Rs. 12770, would surely have either a crap processor or motherboard, where overclocking potential will be limited. And also keep in mind, they would be 970 chipset based board, will may require a BIOS update even for them to recognize the FX 6300/8320/8350 Vishera processors. So thats another headache.
Need smooth enjoyable gaming, Intel i5 is the way to go. Period.
Cheers!
