31-40k Looking for an upgrade from i7 4790

Thanks for the heads-up would never compromise with PSU brand or quality. Out of these brands which one is good in terms of after sales (especially RMA). I remember my Seasonic one was acting up at the end of its warranty life and getting it replaced without any hassle.
All of the above mentioned most likely will be good, since these are considered to be reputable brands.
However I don't know if one of them sucks at after sales services or one is really good at it so it's also a good option to do research on their after sales service.
Going with a brand you have already used is a great option since it can bring a sense of reliability.

However speaking of their wattage output, the 550 watt nzxt will be fine, just barely.
Though the deepcool one seems to be a great option since it has 80 + gold and 10 years of warranty. Also with deepcool, you can upgrade to a wattage monsters like the 9070 xt or the 5070 ti.

Though always your call.

Yes I was also looking at the Deepcool one. It seemed like the best option out of all.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions

So far, my mixed build will look something like this. Motherboard, I'll put in a bit more research and see what I can find and ask for specific recommendations.

PC Parts List:
  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600
  • RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws S5 32GB (16GBx2) 6000MHz DDR5 CL30
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080
  • SSD Boot Drive: Samsung 850 EVO 256GB - (will replace later with an m.2 drive)
  • SSD Storage Drive: Crucial MX500 1TB
  • Power Supply: Seasonic S12II Bronze 520W
  • Motherboard: (To be determined)
Any notes?
get a ssd asap !
samsung or western digital .
 
Why do you say that? I'll add an nvme drive sometime down the line but I don't think I'll be losing that much on performance with the SSDs I have currently especially for my workloads.
I have both ssd and nvme. Samsung pro and wd blue. Respectively. Wd blue is considerably faster in general work load and it is apparent at least to me.

I'm confused. I mentioned the SSDs I am currently using and will include in the new build. Is there a problem with those?

^^ Quotes I got from a reputed seller in Nehru Place.
Price seems better than online? Especially on the processor and power supply.
All of this is going in Asus Prime AP201 case which I just got off from a fellow TE member.

I still need help with the Motherboard. I'll lock in a few options and ask for final recommendations.

Try to find ASRock B650M PG Lightning WiFi for under 13k

Else get MSI B650M Gaming WIFI for 10k or MSI B650M Gaming Plus WiFi/Gigabyte B650M Gaming X AX for 15k.

Here is the final parts list, I did overshoot the budget, especially due to adding in the case and power supply. Also didn't want to cheap out on the motherboard. Let me know if I'm overlooking or missing anything?
 
Since your motherboard, ram, case comes in black and white variants, you could also look for cable extensions for a more pleasing look.
Not necessary, but cable combs can really polish up the overall look.
Yes I'm wondering if I should get the white motherboard with some argb fans for white lighting inside the case. The black case with white inside might be something interesting. Not sure about it though, can't find many examples
