I am super confused since this is my first PC build.Need to stay in budget,get 1080p60fps gaming.This is my build:
http://in.pcpartpicker.com/list/KxcsXH
I was wondering if you guys could help me get the desired results at a cheaper price.
Also how long will the 750 Ti last before I need to upgrade.Is it sufficient for today's games and games coming in a few years?
(1080p60fps is the goal)
(Budget around $650 because the prices of hardware are crazy expensive in India so please give me Indian prices of the components)

Eeerm, Ahan?
What the hell? o_O
You just told me 50k was out of your price range....
PLEASE go with this build if you're getting the i5, i've selected the best value components in your price range.
The power supply you've listed is terrible quality, is prone to failure and can potentially fry your components.

The i3 is still better value, but if it is in your budget the i5 is definitely worth it.
Get the build i've linked above, much higher quality than the one you've listed, and is a little cheaper.

Seems like a pretty good setup to begin with, the 750 will be OK though if you want it to last in the future i would suggest a 980/1060 with more VRAM or you can pick up a RX 480 for quite cheap. Also you forgot a HDD or SSD, i would suggest not cheaping out on this as cheap ones won't last very long in comparison and better ones are generally much faster. if you get an SSD put the Operating System on there and save applications and stuff on your HDD

Not in a budget for a 1060(as I told you , the prices) can the 750ti game at a smooth 1080p60fp?

Nobody no matter how much they know about the components could say for definate how it will run games. my guess is that it will be fine with most games in 1920x1080 at high settings but may struggle in some and you may have to crank the settings down accordingly though i would say performance>FPS to a degree as it makes the games much more enjoyable at a higher FPS.

Eeerm, just a question; what on earth are you on about?
Components have benchmarks available in many forms.
Reviews, userbenchmark results from thousands of submitted tests, overclocking guides etc.
It is quite easy to tell if something can run x at 60fps 1080p.
An RX480, 970 or GTX 1060 would do this well at max settings.

Here is your build by the way.
http://in.pcpartpicker.com/list/L6ZmkT
Comes out to a total of 43444 INR, 25 INR below 650 USD to INR. ;)
Will absolutely destroy the 750ti, and features higher quality components.
I used two major retailers, and you may need to preorder some parts as they are coming in next week, but apart from that you're set.
Should be able to run graphically demanding titles at 60fps medium-high settings, and other games such as Overwatch maxed 60fps no problem.
Here's a comparison between the two cards for reference.
http://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-GTX-960-vs-Nvidia-GTX-750-Ti/3165vs2187
If you want to be able to max stuff out at 60fps, I HIGHLY recommend increasing your budget just a little bit to 50k INR.
Will give you miles more performance.
EDIT: Just saw your original build cost again, definitely headroom in terms of budget for me to use, i'll post an updated build in a sec! :)

50404 total.
http://in.pcpartpicker.com/list/86bYgL
The 970 is essentially double the performance of the 960, and triple the performance of the 750ti.
Should max stuff 60fps no problem at all! :)
This is the recommended build path for you, as it is the best value.
Here is another comparison between the 970 and the 750ti you originally selected for reference.
http://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-GTX-970-vs-Nvidia-GTX-750-Ti/2577vs2187
I'm going off for the night, but i'll be back in 9 hours when I wake up! ;)
Feel free to post any questions here.

Wow.Thanks a lot.One question-
Would the i3-6100 make a difference if I instead use an i5-6500 while gaming?
Also the i3-6100 is a dual core and 15-6500 is a quad core CPU.Would that be much of a difference while gaming?
Again,thanks a lot :)

Nope, not good. :(
Low quality power supply, which could potentially fry your PC parts, CPU is overkill and the GPU has poor performance compared to other options.
The i3 is a hyperthreaded dual core, which means it has 4 threads, consisting of two virtual cores and two physical cores.
They perform the exact same though.
The i5 has stronger cores than the i3, which makes it a better investment typically, but with your budget, the i3 and 970 is the way to go, offers much better graphical performance for the money.
If you were to go i5, it would simply eat up too much of your budget to be a good value option.

with a top tier GPU/other components then it is Highly unlikely he will run into performance issues, but it does happen and seen as he wants to run today's games at 1080p 60fps and presumably Ultra/high settings on a budget, i was just trying to make him aware of the possibility that it may not perform as needed on all games as the performance can vary from machine to machine. This being said, with the components you suggested, i am sure he will be fine for now.

What is your budget for GPU? 950/960 are cheaper but close to the same price as 970 so it would probably be worth waiting to get that instead if you can. AMD RX 460 are going for quite cheap and , from what i've read, is a pretty good card.

Forget everything I said,
http://in.pcpartpicker.com/list/sDNbhq
How is this?
PSU is kinda cheap but the reviews (having an even more demanding build) said its fine and lasted years and is silent.
Thanks a lot guys.I will probably getting these parts slightly cheaper and since I already have the Keyboard,mouse and monitor,I guess I'm good to go :)
Aaaaand any suggestions to modify this build are welcome :)
BTW are second hand GPU's worth it?

Computer components really aren't worth cheaping out on as spending extra £££ will save much more than if you cheaped out and the whole thing was fried. Crosair is an OK brand but i would say it is better to go with EVGA, Seasonic as they are more reputable and they aren't really that much more money.

Sorry about that.Did not know how cheap the prices were at a local store as compared to Amazon.
The PSU will do justice,right?
Sure I will be getting the 970 but still,curious
The 960 wont be bad at 60fps,right (same setup)

No worries, just confused me a bit! ;)
What i've done is compare both local stores to amazon and selected from the best value components while keeping the quality high so you don't end up with a busted build because of some no name hard drive. :p
That build will be great, and yes the PSU will do you very well.
Enjoy, and let me know via PM or another post on this thread if you have any issues or need help with setup!
