31-40k Need help in deciding my RIG

[nikhilpoddar]

Hi guys,

Need ur help in deciding my new RIG within a budget of Rs. 40,000
I will mostly be using it for surfing, watching hd movies, using for office applications & rarely playing any games.

As per my research, this seems to be the best option:
CPU: AMD 8230 3.2 Ghz - Rs. 9900
Motherboard: Asus M5A97 R2 - Rs. 7050
RAM - Gskill RipJawsX 1x 4gb - Rs. 2800
SMPS: Antec VP450P - Rs. 2,600
Monitor - Dell S2240L - Rs. 8900
HDD: Seagate 500gb - Rs. 3600
Cabinet: NZXT Source One 210 - Rs. 3000
Cooler - Hyper 212 Evo - Rs. 2350
Asus DVD RW - Rs. 1000
Key Mice - 1000
Require Suggestion for GPU - Any Basic model will do ??

Please pour in your suggestions on the improvement of this RIG.

The configuration looks nice but you are ~2k over your budget without the GPU.
I think AMD APU will be a better choice for you.

And for HDD, ~300-350 more will get you a WD Blue 1 TB with pretty good performance.

you can really cut of the AMD option, as for what purpose you have suggested; you can get a Intel G2010/G2020; or if you want some more power i3 3220 with a Gigabyte B75 D3M board. This would suffice your purpose. For this combo you dont need to add an extra GFX, needed you can add one later on.

Having an AMD 8320 is just an overkill.

As for power supply stick to Seasonic s12II 430W or Corsair CX430 at the minimum. You can skip the CPU cooler too and save on that front.
The rest seems fine!
Good luck with your purchase.
