hey guyz,

6 months before I build my pc [ NOT MYSELF ONE LOCAL DEALER DID THAT] but from last 2 months I have gained my intrests in gaming and I want to buy some part that is essential for gaming. Now,i have seen many poor components is installed in my pc

my current specs:

processor - intel i5 2500k

motherboard - intel dh67bl

hardisk- 500gb Seagate

ram - 4gb

psu - coolermaster thunder 500watt

monitor - acer 19inch lcd

gpu - intel hd3000

so now , my point is as u can see that my processor is meant for overclocking but my motherboard cannot support that
and I was having 7870hd but given to my little brother as gift due to the force of my parents

now iam having 22k in INR and in dollar i think 360$ with me so tell me how to utilize my money in the best way note that I want buy one gpu on that budget also,so guyz tell me where to spent my money .

thank you

Motherboard to allow OCing. With stock heatsink/cooler you can get a moderate OC which will boost overall performance quite a bit.

6100R
Video card which will play nicely with your 500W psu so you wont need to upgrade that quite yet:

14300R
heatsink/cooler if your case has room for it, then you can do a higher, and cooler overclock to get even more performance:

1500R
in total without heatsink would be: 20400R
With heatsink: 21900R

yes that motherboard will do nicely, you can do some overclocking with the stock heatsink, it may run a little warmer is all. When you want to get into mid-high range OCing you would want a aftermarket heatsink.
