Intel Core i5 2400 - 9.3k
Intel DH67BL-B3 - 5.5k
G.skill RipjawsX F3-128000CL9S-4GBXL-1.6k
MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III-15.3k
Corsair GS600 PSU - 4K

Total = 34K

11k Lower than your budget but this can do the job for you.

@op: apart from the above suggestion, you can also add another module of G.skill RipjawsX 4GB kit as it will get into your budget nicely.

^Once again does that mobo support 1600mhz Ram?

**topgear** · 03-10-2011, 06:39 AM

here's goes mine

Intel Core i5 2500k @ 10.5k
ASUS P8Z68-V PRO @ 13k
G.skill RipjawsX 2x F3-128000CL9S-4GBXL @ 3.8k
MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III @15.3k
Corsair TX650 V2 @ 5.5K
Cm Hyper 212+ @ 1.9k

even if Op don't want to OC buying a K sku cpu with a quality Z68 mobo makes more sense and he is going to use that rig for next 3-4 years for which the option to OC the core i5 2500k is a must have as it will boost the cpu performance for more demanding games of future

the cooler will keep the cpu cool enough upto ~4.5 Ghz and with that mpob the cpu can be pushed even higher.

With TX650v2 OP can add a more powerful gpu or another HD6950 later and 8GB ram is what gamers should get to have a future proof pc
