Getting an entire PC into that budget is a tall order but this is what I suggest --

Intel RIG --
Intel Core i5 2400 ~10900/-
Intel DH67-BL ~6000/-
Corsair Vengeance OR G.Skill RIPJAWS 4GB x2 ~3500/- [OR buy module now and get another one down the line]
Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 1TB ~5000/-
AMD HD 7750 ~6800/-
LG / Samsung OEM optical drive ~1000/- OR HP boxed drive ~1100/-
Seasonic S12II 520W ~3800/-
NZXT Gamma ~2600/- [buy it stock for now, later add fans for a good airflow setup]
Dell ST2220L ~8500/- [the default schemes have a bluish tinge to them, but calibration should solve the issue]
APC BR650-IN ~2600/-

AMD RIG --
AMD FX-6100 OR FX-8120 ~8100/- OR 9500/-
ASUS M5A97 ~6500/-
[rest configuration same-same as Intel]

Hope this helps, Cheerio!!

Click to expand...

Your other option for cabinet is the --

NZXT Source Elite 210 ~2200/- [anything below this is a compromise I feel]
for RAM scale back to Corsair ValueRAM 4GB x2 ~2500/- [these are 1333MHz kits]

Hope this helps, Cheerio!!
