Hello World (first post on forum
![:p :p]()
)
I am planning to build a budget gaming rig. I have no knowledge of computer building whatsoever except a meager amount of research for selecting parts. So here's the build I am planning to make and please tell me if this is best or I should go higher/lower/somewhere different in choosing parts. In Flipkart prices, I included shipping, though I did not in Newegg. So please help me! Thanks!
Approximate Purchase Date: This week (the closer the better)
Budget Range: $1000 to $1600
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Watching movies
Parts Not Required: none
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: I'll be using Flipkart. It is similiar to Newegg -- for India.
Country: India
Parts Preferences: Intel
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: Yes
Monitor Resolution: Full HD
Additional Comments: First Build

http://www.flipkart.com/lg-21-5-inch-led-e2260-monitor/...
Therefore,
Cost (Flipkart)
= Rs. 83215 = $1553
Cost (Newegg) (Without Shipping)
= $1429 + ~$100 for shipping (hypothetically)= $1539 = Rs. 82,421
Should I go for it?
