Components Description Price (INR)

Processor AMD Athlon II X3 445 3400

Motherboard Gigabyte GA-MA78LMT-S2 2450

RAM Corsair 4GB DDRIII 1333MHz 2000

HDD Seagate 500GB 7200.12 1950

GPU MSI HD5770 1GB GDDR5 6800

Monitor Dell IN2020M 6250

Cabinet CM Elite 310 1500

PSU/SMPS Corsair CX400 2450

Key Board Logitech SET - Optical Blk Mouse+ MMKB 650

Mouse NA -

ODD LG/Samsung 22X SATA DVD 900

Speakers Altec Lansing 2.1 BXR1121 950

Total 29300

If you want more gaming muscle then try to get a 2nd hand HD6850 for ~7.5k. Else cut out the DVD R/W and speakers and go for a new one. Should cost ~9.5k-9.8k

If this would suffice and if you need more space then go for a 1TB HDD for ~2.75k

Try following the format http://www.techenclave.com/pc-buying-advice/template-what-should-i-buy-use-143714.html since that would have made things much clearer.
 
excellent config DA.

op-- you may even unlock that forth core to make your quad core processor at cost of tripple core.

DA--what you say for gaming,

Dont grab the X4 840, spend 1k more and get the Phenom II X4 955 B.E., has the 6MB L3 cache and unlocked multi.

RIght now, quad-cores with faster clocks are better for gaming, and for graphic cards in the range of HD6870, a X4 955 is enough @ fullhd.

Go for DA's rig, worth it. If the core unlocks, BUMPER lottery.
