You should get a z270 board with the 7600k, the b150 will likely require a bios update to even work with a 7th gen cpu and it requires a compatible cou to upgrade the bios and the b150 doesn't support overclocking. A b250 would work but also doesn't overclock. Imho get a i5 7500 and a b250 or h270 board and spend the saved money on getting a faster gpu.

The b150 will only run that ram at 2133 and a b250/h270 will run @ 2400(with a 7th gen cpu). To run ddr4 3000 speeds youll need a Z chipset.

PSU is not good. You dont need 650w youd be better off with a smaller (450-550w) higher quality psu. Extra quantity does not make up for lack of quality.

yeah i reduced the wattage to 550w so saved around over that.
motherboard to GIGABYTE GA-H270M-D3H MOTHERBOARD or ASUS PRIME B250-PRO SOCKET 1151 INTEL B250 MOTHERBOARD(z270 is just out of my budget hikes it up by a lot)
is the 7th gen worth it or can i get along with 6th gen processor
even is the memory fine or a overkill (should i bring it down to 8gb)

at my convinient place the i5 6500 3.2Ghz @INR16,026 and i5 7400 3.5Ghz @INR15,359
which one is preferrable and profitable to run with ASUS PRIME B250-PRO SOCKET 1151 INTEL B250 MOTHERBOARD
ram G.SKILL RIPJAWS V F4-2400C15S-8GVR DDR4 8GB MEMORY x1

Go for the 7400 its cheaper and faster than the 6500 and will work fine with that b250 board.
I'd get dual channel ram personally. Usually costs the same as a single stick but offers a permance boost in most things. 8gb is fine but 16gb will be better in the long(but you can always upgrade later).

What psu did you switch too?
