Errr.... Sandy Bridge i-3's would be out by then and the prices would have changed. So its better to hone in on the components 7-10 days before purchase rather than 2 months before.

--- Updated Post - Automerged ---

But as of now the suitable config for you in this budget would be,

Components Description Price (INR)

Processor AMD Athlon II X3 440(3Ghz, 3 cores, 1.5MB Cache) 3300

Motherboard Asus M4A78LT-M LE 2700

RAM Kingston 4GB DDRIII 1333MHz stick 2250

HDD 500GB Seagate 7200.12 1750

GPU On Board Raedon HD3000 -

Monitor Dell E1920IN(Not sure of non-widescreens) 5550

Cabinet Zebronics Bijili w/o SMPS 1100

PSU/SMPS FSP SAGAII 400w 1850

Key Board Logitech SET - Optical Blk Mouse+ MMKB 700

Mouse NA -

ODD L.G./Samung/ SOny OEM SATA DVD-Writer 950

Speakers Logitech R20 2.1 850

Total 21000

  • Since u said VM Ware more cores would come in handy and also the AthlonII X3 unlocks to AthlonII X4 (~in 7/10 cases)
  • Also 4GB RAM would come in handy. Get a single 4GB stick as it would be easier to upgrade later
