IMO, its a pretty good deal...
Can't u increase ur RAM a bit more?
Another 2 GB would hardly cost u Rs 1000/1200/-

change the board to AM3 that support DDR3. get 2Gb DDR3. with rest of the money get HD4650 or even 9500Gt wil give better FPS than HD4650. hope this not cross your budget but wil make ur system a lot more futureproof :-P.

Ya go for MCP61 chipsets.They have AM3+ddr3 support.But only 2dimm slots for ddr3 still can get max of 8gb ram in future.Its cheap compared to 785G chipsets with 4 dimm slots and HD 4200 IGP.

yup. for cheap products 1 have to sacrifice something. & OP may never need 8Gb. also as he wil get discrete graphics, it really not matters whether the onboard graphics sucks or it just ok.
