Hai :)
thanks for your configuration :)
But I dont need a graphics card right now, i will buy it later.

Also can you tell what is the problem with Quad Core processor??
And why i need a intel DH 67 b3 ?? IS it essential ??
 
Alright i've edited the processor to i5 2400 so a quad core processor is what you wanted is listed.There's no problem with quad processor.Intel DH67Bl-B3 is the vfm of the all motherboard within that budget and it also has better features compared to other motherboards.Hope this clears the air.:)

Am sorry.. I was not trying to criticise you.. I was thinking whether intel model can hold 1600mhz RAMs.
But for 7000rs (as per flipkart) i will get it a quad core.. also this core i5 costs 10,500rs..
 
can anyone please suggest if there is any problem with Phenom X4 which is available at flipkart for 6900rs.. then i can save some 3000rs.. which i can invest on another 4gb ram..
 
There's no problem in Phenom X4 series but i suggested intel cause the intel i5 lineup beats AMD quad core lineup by far and getting intel i5 processor would help you in long run.After you'll add external gpu will boost your system by far.Here's a comparison-AnandTech - Bench - CPU,Hope this clears things.

The Core i5 will beat the Phenom II 995 955 X4 hands down in everything and with lower power consumption to boot. Unless you need a cheap quad would suggest to go with a i5 2nd SNB proccy.

Also, if you plan to run memory intensive tasks, get a GPU so that the memory is not shared with the IGP.
 
Nope the Quadro gpu's are used for 3d software rendering like Maya,3dsmax etc.So you won't be able to game on these gpu's,You should go for Amd HD6XXX or HD7XXX series gpu.

@truck you can look at the following shops in Nehru Place, Delhi --

Out of the three, two have current user accounts in TE and I have tagged them, best ask them for prices and availability of components before purchase.

Online retail sites that you can also look into [though prices go up thanks to delivery charges and taxes] --
Prime ABGB [Bombay based --> Home]
hardwire.in [Bombay based --> Online Shop for Computer Hardware | India - Hardwire.in]

You will not be able to source the NZXT Gamma in Delhi, so I recommend you look at the next best offering that is the Bit Fenix Merc Alpha ~2800/- [source it from flipkart.com --> BitFenix Merc Alpha | Cabinet | Flipkart.com] OR Cooler Master eLite 430 [BLACK] ~2800/- [available locally in NP, Delhi].

Hope this helps, Cheerio!

P.S. -- if you plan to purchase anything from Prime ABGB, best talk to @chiragsthakur.
