AMD 64 3000 (Socket 939) Rs. 7800
Asus A8N E mobo. I selected this coz it has PCI E. Rs. 8100

You have selected a gud Proccy and Mobo acc. to ur budget.
No need to change it. But ur vendor has quoted a bit higher price for the CPU. In my city it costs Rs 7000-7200 including Vat

512 MB Transcend (400 MHz) RAM Rs. 2700

1. Monitor: I love this model from ViewSonic E72f+ 17" CRT Rs. 7500. Anybody knows its performance over other compititors?

Digit has awarded it as the best monitor (Gold) in April 2005.
Stick to it.

2. Graphics Card: I know nothing abt this part. Right now My budget is Rs. 5000.Plz suggest me a good PCI E card Which will be available in Pune. I called ASUS dealer and he said he has a PCI E card ATi 300 (whts that??)which would cost me aroud Rs. 4000.

Iif your overall budget is 45 k then why are u settling for graphic card like ati 300 series. You can easily go for PCIE 6600 GT whic cost around 11 k which is total value for money.

But if u dont want to go for such expensive Gfx Card. Then buy a mobo like MSI RS480M2-IL which has onboard ATI X200 graphics plus it has an PCIE Slot and cost Rs 5800-6000 only.
However Asus mobo u have selected will give better performace compare to it.

3. Cabinet n SMPS: I think I should go for a 450 W SMPS n Cabinet - no idea. My budget is around Rs. 2500 for Cabinet+SMPS. Tell me some Manufacturing companies and models

Go for Antec SLK 1650 (350W SMPS) costing Rs 2700

or.

Select any gud cabinet like IBOX etc. Rs 500-800
and buy a VIP or Antec 400 Watts SMPS cost Rs 1500/2000 with it

Wht abt DVD/CD-RW combo? Which one is better? Samsung, LG or ASUS?

Dont go for combo. Instead buy a DVD Rom and Cd Writer separately. Wud cost u 300 extra. Go for Liteon ,Sony or Asus. cost Rs 1400 and 1550 respectively.

OR if possible

Get a Liteon 16X DVD Writer (Dual Layer) costs rs. 4300-4500.


Buy a Segate 80 GB HDD cost Rs 2500/2600
If possible get a SATA HDD.

Get a Logitech Multimedia K/B and Optical Mouse Combo Set cost Rs 850
