Hi Tom's Hardware. I am going to build a desktop pc (i already have monitor keyboard, mouse, speakers, etc.). I am on a tight budget only about 25k inr. Now i am confused between these two processors:-
1. i3 with 4 gb ram AND
2. AMD a8 with 8 gb of ram.

I am not a hardcore gamer just i want is a pc in which i can multitask easily like, 4 to 5 tabs of chrome, watching a full hd movie with multiple of download and copying of files in running background. i also want to play some games on it like gta 5, most wanted rivals, 2012, and fifa on low to medium on 720p resolution.i would add a geforce 730 or 750ti in next year. please suggest me other build if there is any other build.
THANKS FOR HElP

The GPU will cost you 8K and a 450W power supply will cost 2.5K + HDD(approx 4K for 1TB) + Optical Drive(1K). Totalling up to 28K. You can build it cheaper by buying a 500GB HDD.
This would be good for your build.
If you are getting a gpu later (absolutely do NOT get a Nvidia X30/ X40 or AMD X40/X50 cards!, get the GTX750Ti minimum!), absolutely go with the i3, but get 8gb ram. If you absolutely can't afford 8GB right now (in which case you should wait until you can), get a single 4gb stick so you can upgrade to 8. You CANNOT play GTA V on 4GB of memory without running into major issues.

I have the A8 7600 and choose it over the i3 just because I wasn't going a GPU. The i3 outperforms the A8 is single and multi core performance and pairing it with the 750Ti would give better performance. I would recommend getting 1600mhz 8GB RAM, you can get it for 3K INR, also many games use more than 3gigs of RAM so you should buy at least 8gigs
 


Do NOT use DDR3 memory with the i3 6100!

For an i3 4300 series chip though, 1600MHz is usually the cheapest, 1866 will work but might cost a few more dollars. Unless the local prices are crazy, the i3 6100 tends to be cheaper than the older haswell chips though

I'm sorry, my bad, I forgot i3 was DDR4. Still you can get 8gigs 2133mhz DDR4 for 3K.

Thanks Friends for your Quick Response. I had prepared a build which i think that can serve my purpose (And by the Way I forgot to mention that i will use this build only for max. 1 year and after that i will get a high end laptop and give this pc to my brother(he is not a heavy user at all ) he just play small games like csgo, nfs mw, and sims 4 ).

CAN YOU SUGGEST A BUILD UNRER 26K other than i3 and a8, and by the way how will a g3240 with a 8 gb of ram and ASUS R7 260X 1GB 128-bit GDDR5 will perform

I am going to buy a hdd, power supply, processor, mobo, ram, and a optical drive, and a gpu ( i already have a case with good air ventilation and usb 3.0 support). And the combo you have mentioned here is for 15299 but if i purchase these parts individually this for 13100 and i would save rs. 2000.

But bro I want to use this pc just for 1 year so what if i go with a i3 6100 without a dedicated gpu because i saw some videos on youtube that its igpu can handle gta 5 with low to med at 720 at playable and later if i feel that it would not be sufficient then l will add a used 960 or 750ti for beetter performance. And brother thanks for your help you have truly helped me
