Budget 31-40k New Gaming Rig For 35 K and where to buy in Chennai

@thegame i can see there is branch in velachery itself.. i will go and check it out..

But again the question, should i go for Gigabyte B85MD3H or ASUS H81MV3 instead of Asus H81MCS?
 
avoid gigabyte. they use some real shady corner cutting techniques on their mass market mobos.
stick with asus. also, treat what the sales person tells you as total and complete bullsh*t. those guys are so stupid, most don't know the difference between a hdd and an ssd so any 'advice' they give you is for the sole purpose of getting more money or getting rid of old stock. they are obviously trying to palm off the gigabyte crap on to you before more people find out about their sharp drop in quality.
there are, as always, a few exceptions to the rule but local stores are full of people who couldn't give 2 figs about you.

of the asus h81 mv3 and mcs i'd suggest the mv3.
if possible, try to get an asus b85 based board. it isn't much more expensive than h81 based boards as it's the h81's mid-cycle replacement so it'll have some newer features.

Also your system will run off a quality 400w psu (antec, seasonic, corsair) even with lots of drives so 500w is kind of overkill unless you plan to put in a much more powerful gpu.

sorry mate as its been a very long time since i did some research as my pc that i assembled in 2009 is still working fine :) .. am using a gigabyte X38 board and so far no issues and based on feedback I find ASUS>Gigabyte>MSI.. I had my pc components sourced from Rahul computers in Ritchie street, you can check Delta as they are also one good reliable shop (have got hdds, ups etc from them) again these days you get to deal directly with the support team and as far as i know you have decent after sales support in chennai for all the major companies (asus, gigabyte, seagate, corsair, sapphire etc)..
