Budget 41-50k Home PC + ML config by next year

[sunily]

What is your remaining budget for PSU now ?

3.5-4k Max, in that I can get Antec NE550M. My only concern was if it remain underutilized then no point.
Down the line I will eliminate those SATA HDD and get a bigger one. I have no plan to OC.

But the difference in 450W and 550W is less than 1k (considering Corsair CX450 and Antec NE550M), which is not that big, considering the challenge to sell it later in case I upgrade GPU or add any other components.

I would still suggest to get Corsair CX series at the very least. You can refer to this for list of recommendations; https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/1116640-psu-tier-list-40-rev-103/

CX series not available in local market, even call cost-to-cost Nehru place. If I buy online, it will cost 5k (including shipping) + 3-4 days more waiting period.
Theitdepot also charged me Rs 550 extra for shipping + online payment charge.

Checking the list of PSU and CM MWE is also there in Tier B+. Is below PSU same or MWE gold is different?

The higher the frequency of RAM the better
Better buy from prime abgb which is offering 3600Mhz RAM kit for 7.3k

 

[sunily]

Both mentioned sticks have same frequency but sti price diff of 800.

Motherboard I bought show 3200 MHz
ASRock B450M Pro4-F

You missed all festival day offers. Try amazon, comparatively cheaper.

Yes, MWE Gold is different. The one you linked in MWE Bronze, which is in Tier C. (MWE v1 <600w). I would still stick with CX450

Between the two, G Skill's timing is tighter than Corsair. Going by that, G Skill is better.

Ok, I will finalize Gskill then. I also prefer CX series 450, if not 550. Let's see if I can find it locally.

Thanks all for guidance, config is final, working of finding some last pieces.

Good to know that you finalised the build.

Local shop didn't have stock of CX450. He insisted that I can also go with Antec NE550 model by saying it is also 80% efficient, Bronze, 5 yrs warrenty like Corsair CX and it is equivalent to Corsair CX gold series. Another advantage of Antec is Semi-modular.
If I want CX450 then he will order specially as he mostly sells CX550+ models and he said I have to wait for 2-3 days. He suggested if I still want to go with CX then go with 550 as it is more future proof in case I want to add more disks/fans/GPU in system later.

What do you guys suggest?

From the link I posted above, Antec NE - NeoEco is in list of Tier D - Not Recommended.

Thanks @vyral_143 for responding.
I also make up my mind in same direction and ordered Corsair CX550 in Rs 4299/-.

Got everything today and tried to assemble system and found motherboard is dead. TheItDepot said take to service center since it's 10+ days. Bad experience with Asrock. Even took to local shop and replaced everything PSU, ram, GPU, CPU, but no luck. Same components working on other MSI Mobo

System showing Asrock logo then going blank.

Are you sure it's not just that the BIOS needs to be updated?

 

[sunily]

Motherboard is ready with Ryzen 3000 series. Mentioned on it and checked with TheItDepot as well.

Which UPS should I go with? Is 650 V enough?

 

[bssunilreddy]

Which UPS should I go with? Is 650 V enough?

I think it's better to go with 1kva

Which UPS should I go with? Is 650 V enough for cx550?
