if you have a budget of 15k, then AMD is the must have. In the middle and lower end segment AMD is the best buy and infact offers better performance/price ratio than Intel

Now uou didn't mention what kind of system you required, DDR2 based or DDR3 based as you didn't mention RAM.

Please let us know whether u r having ram or wanna buy new ones.

DDR3 would be most preferable..have to buy a new one...or shall i wait for the price to go down...now that USB 3.0 is also on the go....

most of the boards come with one parallel port , so you could use your ide hdd and optical drive, forget about usb3 thing as it would take atleast an year to become main stream, as of now its of no use, and in your budget not at all possible, go for amd rig.

Transcend 2GB DDR3 1333MHz C9 @ 2.9k (single stick)
VIP Gold 400W @ 1.4k
cabby of choice @ 1.2k

total: 14.9k or get Phenom II X2 555 (sure shot chance will unlock to X4 B55) & take total to 15k.

change PSU to FSP Saga II 400W or Gigabyte 460W, whichever is cheaper. this will enable u add a GPU & be in safe land.

if u wish u may try building. need patience mainly. rest everything is simple and we here to help if u face any problems.
