My current motherboard is dead and it's time again for an upgrade.
Aside from this, I might also be getting a new monitor.
I really want a 20" as I am not comfortable using 22" and above. But I may cave in if someone makes a good enough case (gaming at slightly higher resolutions not being it
).
Q: What is your budget?
15-17k for CPU + RAM + Mobo
5-7k for the monitor
Q: Which hardware will you be keeping (component name - component brand and model)
GPU - Zotac 9800GT 512MB
PSU - Corsair VX450
Q: Which hardware component are you looking to buy (component name). If you have already decided on a configuration then please mention the (component brand and model) as well, this will help us in fine tuning your requirement.
CPU - Intel i5 2400 OR Intel i5 2500K if the extra 1.5k is really worth it
RAM - the best 4GB module within my budget
Mobo - Intel DH67BL
Monitor - a good 20" with decent view angles and no major backlight bleeding issues that I can use for years and years
Q: Is this going to be your final configuration or you would be adding/upgrading a component in near future. If yes then please mention when and which component
Yes, will upgrade the following within 6 months
GPU - Probably going to get a GTS450 or HD6770
PSU - Anything that is required to run it perfectly at stock speeds
Q: Where will you buy this hardware? (Online/City/TE Dealer)
Ahmedabad
Q: Would you consider buying a second hand hardware from the TE market
No
Q: What is your intended use for this PC/hardware
Gaming
Browsing
Watching HD movies
Q: What is your preferred monitor resolution for gaming and normal usage
1600x900 and above
Q: Are you looking to overclock?
No
Q: Which operating system do you intend to use with this configuration?
Windows 7 64-bit
Thanks in advance

I realize I am clueless about everything besides the CPU, but hey that's what this thread is for.
