Here goes my suggestions. Adjust with 500GB. Upgrade to 1TB later, when the price of HDD falls.

[Sainatarajan]

Does the motherboard you suggested supports USB 3.0 ?

[MegaMind]

Does the motherboard you suggested supports USB 3.0 ?

Yes it has 2*USB 3.0 ports..

[Sainatarajan]

Can you also suggest me a good AMD Rig ?
I think intel is too costly.

[d3p]

Just replace the processor & Motherboards.

[Sainatarajan]

Will the processor and motherboard last for atleast 4 Years.

[d3p]

Will you be alive for next 4 yrs ??? Future is unpredictable.

This gaming rig will able to play the recent games at higher settings, but i'm not sure upcoming gaming, how are they going to react. But still then you will able to get playable frame rates.

Here goes my suggestions. Adjust with 500GB. Upgrade to 1TB later, when the price of HDD falls.

>Get a better UPS like Intex 1KVA. This one won't offer backup.
>The GS 600 costs around 4.3k now. Get Seasonic S12 II 520 for 3.7k.
>For AMD get AMD Phenom II 955 + Gigabyte MGA-970A-UD3 and change the case to NZXT Source 210
Elite.

EDIT : @d3p-Saw your post just now buddy.

[MegaMind]

^^If planning on using for some years, intel will be the better option..

[RiGOD]

^^Why so? The SNB architecture vs outdated Phenom architecture you say?

Ya & also Since OP's purpose is gaming, no OCing, i5 2400 is a clear winner..

[Sainatarajan]

My budget has been increased to 60K !!!
I5 3570K , any good board , 8 GB RAM , 1 TB HDD , DVD ROM , 22" LED HD Monitor , microsoft key + mouse , NZXT Lexa S , creative 2.1 speaker, seasonic 520w . HD 7850. Is this a good Build . Can HD 7850 play games at high to ultra settings

[RiGOD]

^^AFAIK the SNB's are better OC'ers than IVB's. So get the i5-2500k+ASRock Z77 Extreme4. And yes, the HD7850 can max out almost all games at Full HD resolution.

[SunE]

@Sainatarajan the things you have isted will cost more than 10k to upgrade.
In the config that d3p has suggested get these parts instead:

i5 2500k
ASRock Z77 Extreme 4
Seagate Barracuda 1TB
NZXT Lexa S

This will increase your total by around 10.5k
Stay with the Corsair GS600 as you will need the extra power for overclocking.
If you want 8GB RAM then go for Corsair vengeance LP 8GB kit for 2.5k or GSkill RipjawsX 8GB kit for 3000. Or if you're happy with value RAM then just add another stick of the 1.1k RAM suggested to you. Also the monitor suggested is a 22" LED Full HD monitor.

[d3p]

^^ How can you suggest OP to get a unlocked K Processor, when he don't want to OC ??

[SunE]

If someone has a budget of 60k for a PC then why wouldn't you suggest the best option. Also even if you read OP's latest post you'll say that he himself wants the 3570k CPU so I simply recommended it's SB equivalent.

[Sainatarajan]

Is the CPU Performance of I5 2500K and I5 2400 same ?

Does sandybridge support PCI 3.0 ?

[d3p]

^no.

2400 << 2500k << 3570k

[Sainatarajan]

Will the performance get affected If I put a PCI 3.0 x16 GFX card in PCI 2.0 x16 slot?

[MegaMind]

2400 vs 2500k
sandybridge CPUs doesn't PCI 3.0..

Will the performance get affected If I put a PCI 3.0 x16 GFX card in PCI 2.0 x16 slot?

No..

[Cilus]

d3p, I think 2500K is more suitable here because it is quite clear that OP needs the system for long run. "I'll never overclock" thing might last for 1 years/1.5 years but after that OP can learn it and get some extra performance boost through overclocking.

I used to have a AThlon X2 3800+ and didn't overclock it until 1.5 Yrs of the purchase. Then I started like hell.

[RiGOD]

^^You're right. The i5 2400 will wipe the floor with any Phenom BE out there. But in the long run, considering the OC'ing potential of the latter, I guess it would be a wise choice to go for it. If OP is planning to go for Intel, then it'll be the i5 2500k. Its always better to have something OC'able in a gaming rig

[d3p]

If OP can increase his budget & gaming is the only purpose. In that case i would suggest him a Better Cabinet, PSU, either 7850 CF or 6950 CF with AMD 960 or 970 BE.

[Sainatarajan]

Oh my god !!! CROSSFIRE is CROSSFIRE a good setup instead of a single card.

[MegaMind]

^^definitely..

[RiGOD]

Phenom II 970 + Gigabyte MGA-970A-UD3 + SeaSonic SS-750JS + 6850 CF ~ 37.3k

Gaming DNA Unleashed

[MegaMind]

^^But OP's budget is 45 - 50k

[RiGOD]

^^Yeah, was just suggesting. BTW I find that ASUS board, CM Case & iBall UPS really misfitting. Gigabyte MGA-970A-UD3, NZXT Source 210 Elite & Intex 1KVA would be better alternatives.

Asus M5A97(4+2 phase) - 6K
Gigabyte MGA-970A-UD3(8+2 phase) - 6.5K
M5A97 is a great OCer, a guy in hwbot was able to OC 955BE to 4.6GHz..

Source 210 Elite & Intex 1KVA will add extra bucks..
