Hi,

I seen lots of thread asking for PC Config under 50,000 but all where outdated.
So, I am asking again. If anyone can help me out it would be amazing :)
I am bit confused what to buy :(

I have a budget of Rs.50,000 ~ $750

I don't need monitor/keyboard/mouse, just give me config for CPU
I am looking for Intel Processor and Nvidia GPU, so suggest accordingly and if possible provide links to buy them online via Flipkart.

Thanks a ton!

Hello Harshitpeer,

There is no need to get confused. Let me tell you this, online retailers like Flipkart, Snapdeal, Amazon India etc., all sell PC components at higher prices. So its better to get it from a local retailer to get better parts for lesser price. By doing so, I'm sure you'll...

Hello Harshitpeer,

There is no need to get confused. Let me tell you this, online retailers like Flipkart, Snapdeal, Amazon India etc., all sell PC components at higher prices. So its better to get it from a local retailer to get better parts for lesser price. By doing so, I'm sure you'll save at least Rs. 3000 - Rs. 4000 and at the same time get better quality parts.

Just hold on. I'll be back with a good config for your budget.

Update:

All prices based on local retail market:

Intel i5 4440 Rs. 12400
Gigabyte GA-H97M-D3H Rs. 6650
Corsair Vengeance (2x4GB) 8GB 1600MHz RAM Rs. 4600
Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB Hard Disk Rs. 3500
Antec VP Series 550W Power Supply (VP550P) Rs. 3750
MSI GTX 960 Gaming 2GB Graphics Card Rs. 16000 [If MSI, not available get ASUS or Gigabyte. All are priced almost the same]
Antec X1-E Gaming Cabinet with Window Rs. 2800
LG DVD Writer Rs. 900

Total Rs. 50600

Let me give you an idea of how much the same parts listed above costs on Flipkart & Snapdeal:

Intel i5 4440 Rs. 14183
http://www.flipkart.com/intel-3-1-ghz-lga-1150-i5-4440-processor/p/itmdpgyx9fn9cgan
Gigabyte GA-H97M-D3H Rs. 6990

Corsair Vengeance (2x4GB) 8GB 1600MHz RAM Rs. 7799

Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB Hard Disk Rs. 4235

Antec VP Series 550W Power Supply (VP550P) Rs. 3899

MSI GTX 960 Gaming 2GB Graphics Card Rs. 19500 [If MSI, not available get ASUS or Gigabyte. All are priced almost the same]

Antec X1-E Gaming Cabinet with Window Rs. 2769
http://www.snapdeal.com/product/antec-x1t-gaming-cabinet-with/485125572
LG DVD Writer Rs. 1046
http://www.flipkart.com/lg-gh24nsc0-dvd-burner-internal-optical-drive/p/itmds9ftbrnayxwh?q=LG+GH24NSC0+DVD+Burner+Internal+Optical+Drive&as=on&as-show=on&otracker=start&as-pos=p_2_lg+dvd+writer&pid=IODDGAPZHBWHJWNR

Online Total Rs. 60421

Price difference - Online Retail Total Rs. 50600 - Local Retail Total Rs. 60421 = Rs. 9821

So by getting the parts from local retailer you can save approximately Rs. 9821

Update #2:

Investing in a over clocking processor for gaming is a total waste of money. The performance difference in gaming between i5 4440 vs i5 4690K is high negligible or non-existent! Check this video:
[video="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fqUaS0v7YA"][/video]
I suggest you get a i5 4440 and invest the saved money in getting a better graphics card like the GTX 960. With GTX 750 Ti you can play modern games only at medium settings @1080/720p. Also the in the local retail even the i5 4690K costs Rs. 17300 which less than the online i5 4670K price of Rs. 18200.

You've selected the H97 chipset based board for a overclock processor i5 4670K which is useless. Overclocking potential on H97 board is limited for an overclock i5 4670K.

I suggest you get the Antec PSU that I suggested which far better than the Corsair VS650 as it comes with cheap capacitors. So its longevity is questionable. Also the GTX 960 only require a 430W PSU that can deliver 20Amps or more on its +12V rail. So 650W is an overkill. The Antec VP550p can deliver a quality 45Amps on its +12V rail combined, which is more than enough to power your entire rig. In fact, this PSU can power the mid/high end GPUs R9 380/270X/280, GTX 970/980 etc.

So in the end I would say get a 4440/4590. Invest the money saved on a good graphics card like the GTX 960.

Other parts are fine, stick with them.

Cheers!
