1st, 85K might be low, cos U R buying 3 GHz with 6800GT

2nd, stay away from 915 rite now, no need to waste your money on PCI-E rite now, after 1.5 years only

I would say go for AMD64 insted of prescott, I don't recomend prescott due to heat issue, but isnce U want to go Intel, so go for 3GHz that will be enough for anything,

If AMD64 then an ASUS K8V Delux motherboard with Athlon64 3200+ will be enough for your needs, get the newcastle core, with 939 pins, add to it an AGP8X based on 6800GT from Gigabyte or MSI, Strictly not ASUS or Gainward, as they are factory overclocked, DDR400 RAM

When it comes to LCD i don't own one, but I would say a 17" at least, go for Samsung 173X the best LCD with 20ms responce time in india available, it will cost u about 25k

No matter what cabinet U buy, it depends on the availability , the Antecs are available in India but may be not available thre at your place, so check for it, it comes with a PSU already, so don't worry, if U Rgetting seperate cabinet then I would say go for Quantam Chassis with Side exhaust Fan, & a Powersafe 400W SMPS, combined it will cost U about Rs 4k, while the antec one will cost U more then 5k, remember cooling is required, add a front intake fan, back exhaust fan & side exhaust fanb all 80mm from a reputed brand or U will get a noisy system
