That video card is way underpowered for your system. Consider this instead.

ASUS ENGTX550 TI DC/DI/1GD5 GeForce GTX 550 Ti (Fermi) 1GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

How about this one http://www.flipkart.com/asus-nvidia-geforce-gt-440-1-gb-gddr5-graphics-card/p/itmd4zgz6zecdwvt?pid=GRCD4ZGZ2RM6D3AW&ref=a363a039-d320-4a59-90dc-d38275e8357d

That's the same power as the zotac card you originally had listed. The 400 is just too underpowered for your cpu, you need to be looking at a 550 (at a minimum) or 550 ti (preferable).

Take a look at this one:

Is everything else ok?? I am confused between i5 2500k and i7 2600k
I am also confused about ram whether corsair or gskill
Cooler whethe to go for seasonic 620v or cooler master 750V

 

[abekl]

The 2500k is preferable unless you are using heavily multithreaded apps. Save yourself $100 and get the i5 unless you really need the hyperthreading of the i7.

Corsair or gskill doesn't matter. As long as the ram meets the specification of 1.5 volts or lower
G.Skill Sniper DDR3 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) PC RAM (F3-12800CL9D-8GBSR)

The Seasonic is much better than the Cooler Master.

Hey u have seen the website from where i am gonna buy the components.Can u pls help me in deciding a good desktop...My budget is Rs.50000-60000...I have already got the led and the hard disk so dont include them....
I would preferably want an i7 processor...Pls help me out...Its urgent

 

[sahil9211]

Try to make it possible in aroud 50-55..
processor,motherboard,ram ,graphic card,cooler,cabinet and nothing else

 

[kareed44]

900-1000 USD roughly...

Do you think you need a k version processor? I'm assuming that because your asking this question in the first place, you wont be overclocking. Also, for a gaming machine, the i5 2500 is plenty enough horse power. I agree with the above poster, save the 100$ (5500 rupees) and go with the i5 over the i7.

What games are you planning on playing?

That's a good system. It'll keep you happy for several years to come.

 

[sahil9211]

I just have a fuss in my mind that i want i7...I seriously do not know about the difference or anything...I just believe that if i m spending 50-55 grands,y not upgrade it to i7 with 100$...What do u say

 

[abekl]

For gaming and surfing the web you will not see any difference between the i5 and i7. So it is just throwing away money on the i7. Besides, with the 2500k, you can overclock the cpu and get even better performance from it.

Hey bsomeone told me sabertooth x77 is better than asus P8Z77-V PRO Motherboard with around 30$ difference????/
Which1 shall i choose

 

[abekl]

The extra money on the sabertooth all goes for that silly looking shrouding covering the motherboard. It's not worth the extra money.
