The processor will cost you roughly 9k+taxes

For the LCD get the Widescreen model instead. Will cost about 16K.

intel e6300, well, it is roughly zonal, you'll get it for 7.5 to 8 k in north. 8.5k near maharashtra, 9k in central india, 8.5 k in south n 9.5k in northeast.
the rates vary for all things.
going by north, i know these rates.
e6300 7.5k
250 GB samsung sp2504c 3.5k (it performs as good if not better than a Seagate)
Ram
Transcend 5.5k
Corsair 6.3k
Kingston5.8 - 6k
m/b 7 - 7.6k
monitor- 5.5k
for PSU, get one from antec if u dont mind spending. i u need a cabinet, just go for one with at least 500w power supply, from antec. it will cost u anywhere from 4-8k on the amount ur ready to spend. Ther's even a 15 k version. a 400watt prolly wont get it on.
For the mb, y du wanna go for a G965 chipset. rather take a mobo on p965. Take home a MSI p965 neo for 5.5k . If u r ready to spend a few more, go for Gigabyte GA 965p Dq6. for, 8-9.7k, it is a steal with n overcloking ability unseen in a sub 10k mobo and with even the support for quad core processors(4 core proccy of future, coming both from Intel n AMD)

Red face Re: How much will this C2D system cost??

well, get a 1000 rs Zebronics cabinet n get a powersafe400 w for 1.5 - 2k or 500w for 2.5k
n sorry, g965 is available even for 6.5k cause som1 from da forum bought it for that rate about 1 week ago.
if u hv an old cabnet of ATX form factor just repalce its PSU. u can even use dual PSUs. But that will leave less space for proper ventilation, especially after u add that 7600gt(prolly from XFX).
1 more thing, though its just an afterthought, gor for Nvidia chipset only for gaming otherwise take an ATI card for other things like a better GUI performance n also a better TV tuner or DV output. I read some1 article who works as a Grfix hardware researcher, n has worked with both the companies.
