thanks for instant suggestion :)
but I am not sure if Gigabyte GA 970A DS3 will be available here, any alternatives ?
also, HDD wont be needed, I already have it and intend to keep
any R7 250 (5300) - which component is this ?
 
R7 250 is an AMD graphics card! since you are into photoshop and all your system will benefit with a better GPU. Also don't you have any internal HDD?? If you intend on getting one get a 120GB SSD for your main boot drive and continue using your 2.5TB external with it! Also for the motherboard GA 970A DS3 give MDComputers Kolkata a call. If they don't have it they can atleast try to arrange it for you!

Yes I have 1 TB Internal, sorry forgot to mention.
Also, my pc boots in 10-20 seconds, do not need additional SSD I think.
Adding a Better G Card will improve rendering ?

sure. those apps support open cl/cuda acceleration and will be benefited from an amd/nvidia gpu. i suggest to get amd gpu as it has far better open cl performance.
 
Ended Up Buying :

Asus Sabertooth 990 FX Rev 2.0
AMD 8350 Black Edition 4.0 GHz
Corssair Vengance 4 GB x 2

Waiting to buy a G Card, any suggestions ?
Budget 10k around...

congrats. :)
you can get hd 7790 at 9.8k .
you could have gone for a 10k mobo to get a better gpu which will yield more open cl performance. will be useful in adobe photoshop and other apps which uses open cl.

thanks rijin,
I guess could buy evo or cheaper, but the military technology that ensures mobo will be safe and sound, gives me immense peace
