Since not going to use the magnanimity of the system configurations as per my usage, I am looking for some budget reductions but not reducing the future proofing of the system as much.
Solid recommendation for SN770. That being said he’s looking to game at 720p apparently so he won’t need a beefy PSU. I don’t know why maybe because he thinks his upgraded PC won’t be able to game at 1080p?
A 50k budget gaming PC made today will easily be able to game at 1080p, maybe even 1440p in some games (although you won’t need it because your monitor is at 1080p). Ryzen 7600 is great but you will need a GPU equally powerful to reap benefits of it. Otherwise stick with older AM4 platform with something like Ryzen 5600 and save some money to buy a better GPU. By staying with older gen you save money everywhere. Ryzen 5600 (or intel equivalent) + Better GPU > Ryzen 7600 + Worse GPU.
Now if you are sure you will be able to pair the Ryzen 7600 with a good GPU. Anything 40k INR or above then stick with it otherwise Ryzen 5600 is the better budget choice. May I also suggest buying used/pre-owned GPU if you are on a tight budget, It will highly depend on how much you want to spend on it but you can get a really good GPU for 1080p gaming.
One more thing, You will need to upgrade to Windows 10 at least if you want to play some recent games. I know games which will not run on Windows older than 10, either due to stupid limitation set by game developers themselves or some requirement that’s only available on newer Windows like 10. (Even windows 10 is officially reaching EOL (end-of-life) in October this year so might as well install 11 since you will be installing fresh)
@@deathblade and @@k660 Yes seasonic was purchased from Nehru Place, Delhi, it was available in those times. I don’t realize how, I could run this for 10 years, but have not been constantly using the machine though Day In and Out.
Thanks for MoBo suggestion, does have distinct advantage as against an 8-9K prince advantage at about 15.5K.
Realized and changed config to WD SN580/SN770.
Thanks, idea is to get a mid-end GC.
This is the current pricing of the configuration so far… I did forget the CPU cooler… which added another 2.5K on the price… still costing me around 58K with additional GC and Monitor upgrade left for later…
I don’t think you need an aftermarket cooler for that 7600 if all you are going to do is gaming and general use, It’s just a 65W TDP processor. If you find out the stock one is not enough buy it afterwards. Also hyper 212 is good but there are alternatives, for cheaper there’s [Deepcool Gammaxx 400](’
) (which is actually better than hyper 212 in temp but worse in noise) or if you want a beefier one with just slightly more cost than hyper 212 there’s [Ant Esports ICE-C621](’
Thanks… what a bummer… will do Monitor 1440P for about 15K, GC something under 20K… basically use this outside of my office laptop for everything else at home, which is restricted on the other… gives an additinal machine for anyone at home to use and will finally not boot up like a snail like my current one

Reasons for choosing the following components:
Motherboard - The VRMs are enough to even run a 7950X. Since you wouldn’t be updating to a top of the line processor, this is enough. Has 2.5Gbps LAN, Dual Channel Memory support, PCIE Gen5 M.2.
GPU - Since you didn’t have the budget to stretch to a 7800XT, and since gaming is only 30% of your use case a 3060 with 12GB of VRAM should suffice for future needs.
PSU - Its a B tier PSU which has more than enough juice to run any mid tier card.
Cabinet - Budget cases, with good enough build quality, and has pre-included fans.
Monitor - One of the best budget 1440P monitors available in the market around 15k. There are some CC offers running in Amazon which would bring down the cost to 15.4K
CPU cooler - Budget cooler which is sufficient enough to cool a 65W TDP processor.
Thanks a bunch @@deathblade , let me run this over the weekend… must have been a question on other forums… but can we trust all these stores that you’ve mentioned or stick to one or two?
Nice build @@deathblade ! Can you please share the pc price tracker link for the same build (I think you have configured this build there)? Would like to share it with other peeps
) instead. Both models are pretty much the same thing minus the stand and a few minor details that I don’t remember even though I have discussed about it on this exact forum.
P.S I do not think RTX 3060 is powerful enough of a card to run games at 1440p, At least not the recent demanding ones. Refer to the [GPU hierarchy chart](’
Yupp, I do agree that the 3060 is not powerful enough to run the latest games at good fps on a 1440p monitor. But he doesn’t have the budget to buy a higher tier GPU. If he’s planning to get a used card, a 6700XT/6800XT would be the best bet at 18k/25k. Has enough VRAM for 1440p gaming.
Yeah, I built it using the pcpricetracker, however the site was acting funky that day. Whenever I add a motherboard, it gets added to the processor section, so I had to export and create a table. Seems like it is working now -
Agreed. It’s either buy a new 3060 or similarly priced card or buy used. Having warranty left on used cards will be a big plus but they are also priced higher according to warranty duration left.
