thank you everyone for posting yours suggestions...

have finally decided on this config:

Processor: Intel Core i5 750 - 10.3k
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD2 - 7k
RAM: kingston/(2x2GB) 1600MHz DDR3 - (dont knw cost guessing 3k)
Cabinet: not decided
SMPS: not decided but want the cabinet and smps both aroung 5k
gfx card: 4850 512 mb (sapphire or xfx) arnd 7 k
monitor: Samsung 2233sw - 9k

so the total comes to 41.3k

now for the final help please suggest a good smps i can go till 2.5- 3k for smps

thank you in advance

(special thanks to kharti007 cuz of u i decided on i5 config...)

will a 500w smps be good enough??
 
Your initial config is fine. Just put in 4GB of RAM instead of 2. It helps. And for Cabby, you could get the Cooler Master Elite 335 and Corsair VX450 PSU. If you’re short on budget, get the PSU that comes with this cabby which is the CM Extreme Power 400W which has 20A on the 12V rail and is not sold in retail separately.
 
i dont relly wanna spend a lot of money on a cabby.. but i would like i good smps...

i hv considered

1. CM extreme Power + 500W (2.8k)

2. powersafe gold 500-550 (500=2.2k 550 =dont knw the cost)

3. zebronics pro series Pro 550(dont knw cost)

can u suggest which is better??

and hw much power will i need??

plz consider the future need of upgrading to a 1 TB HDD...

Please note Gigabyte 460w - 2.2k is a better psu than all the psu's listed above.

BTW , no offence intended

CM extreme power is crap. If you have budget go for VX 450 or if you don't have budget go for Gigabyte 460w .

Trust me its much better than CM etreme power
 
I would suggest Zebronics Bijili Cabinet(1.2k)/CM Elite 310(1.5k)+Corsair VX450(4k). The VX450 has 5 yrs warranty and actually a seasonic 500 OEM. So as you have a 5k budget for the cabby and PSU i would suggest you go for this one. If you want something cheaper then the Gigabyte superb is a very good PSU for 2.2-2.3k. Plus go for 2GB of RAM now and then get 2GB later when Intel releases its new Clarkdale line up in Dec-Jan. Surely there will be a drop in DDRIII RAM prices then.

P.s: As Anubis has said stay away from CM and Powe safe PSU's. The Gigabyte is far better than both of them. And thanks for the compliment. :D
 
@ anubis

no offence taken

@karthi007

will a 460W psu be enough ??

will i need to upgrade psu if i buy a better gfx card and add 1 TB hdd later??

or should i buy the 550W gigabyte psu??

are psu from saga II any good?? they fit my budget...

Saga II 500 Watts @ Rs :2785/-
