I was wrong about my previous statement. I overlooked the budget. you should definitally go for this rig.
 
One more query..
will i be able to make the rig with a fx 8xxx processor ?
I'm ready to go for a <10K graphics card.

You asked for a gaming rig. a sub 10k graphic card will not be good. In Intel you can only get i3 at this price which is slower than FX 6300. i5 will cost ~12k. This is the very best you can get. What is the problem in this rig?
 
No problem with the rig.. thank you so much for the suggestion.
I was just looking for getting an fx 8320 rig.

do you think a "seasonic-S12II-430W" will be enough to drive the rig ?
for some reason I do not like Antec.
 
Thanks for the help Harshil..
I am not a hardcore gamer. I will be satisfied with a <10K GPU.
I've divided my budget as below.
I request you to help me in choosing the right component for my PC under the budget.

CPU + MB -17000
RAM -2500
HDD -4000
ODD -1000
Graphics -10000
Cabinet -2500
PSU -4000
Monitor -10000
KeyBoard + Mouse -1000
UPS -2500
2.1 Speaker -2500
 
If you want a more powerful processor instead of GPU then here is mu suggestion:

FX 8320 (9500)
Asus M5A97 R2.0 (7200)
Kingston hyperX Blu 1600 MHz 4 GB (2400)
Zotac GTX 650ti Boost 2 GB (12000)
WD Blue 500 GB (3300)
Antec VP550P (3900)
local cabinet without PSU (800)
Asus optical drive (1050)
Dell S2240L (8800)
Logitech MK200 (800)
APC 600 VA UPS (2200)

total: 51,950
 
@Ajnas I would suggest sticking to better GFX card mentioned by Harshil in above posts. A better GPU will give more FPS or better performance in gaming rather than a strong CPU - difference with better GPU will be noticeable but with CPU(mentioned above) will not at that extent.

Thank you Harshil..
But, None of the websites lists "Zotac GTX 650ti Boost 2 GB" for 12000.
Are you sure it's available for 12000 ?[DOUBLEPOST=1389756111][/DOUBLEPOST]

APC 600VA

Grpahics Card
waiting for all your suggestions.
 
With above config you will have roughly 7-8k left from 50k budget to buy a GFX card. For a gaming rig with gaming at 1080p no GFX card will provide you good performance in that range. I would like to again re-iterate on cutting budget on proccy and invest that much amount in GPU :)
 
> Why do you want a 24" monitor? it will unnecessarily increase the total cost? Stick to 22".

> Zotac GTX 650ti Boost 2 GB is avilable at 12,699 at mdcomputers.in

> If you are looking for just gaming without any demanding apps, the Intel config will be better suited.

> DO NOT go for 3rd gen Intel processors. It is a dead end.
> APC 600VS UPS will NOT be enough to power this rig. It's rated at 600 VA with a power factor of ~0.6. This means it can deliver only 600*0.6 = 360 Watts which is less then the power consumption of your rig.

Revised suggestion:

FX 8320 (8500)
Asus M5A97 R2.0 (7200)
Kingston hyperX Blu 1600 MHz 4 GB (2400)
WD Blue 1 TB (4000)
Zotac GTX 650ti Boost 2 GB (12700)
Antec VP550P (3975)
CM K281 (3300)
Asus optical drive (1050)
Dell S2240L (9000)
