[NBA] Mediocre Gaming PC - Budget 55k Max

[saudtanvir]

Hello fellow PG-ites, i have been on this site for abt an year now but i havent been much of a poster, neither have i usually read anything outside the xbox section. I have been mainly a console guy, but i am now interested in getting a gaming PC (if its possible in the budget) but with my limited knowledge im not ashamed to say that i dont understand sh*t when i look at computer hardware specifications, so i would really appreciate it if someone could help me out a bit.
Basically my budget is 50-55K and i want to play the newer titles such as far cry 3, BF3 with good graphics(Not extreme ultra super graphics) just good graphics, the computer will generally be used for gaming over the summer vacations and im really only interested in First person shooters. if someone could please suggest the parts in this budget i would be very grateful.
*On another note i currently have a core2duo e7500 and it has this thing called the 9500GT it has a 2 GB stick of ram and i really dont know abt the Motherboard(the computer was assembled by my brother) is there anyway possible i could use a say 35k budget to upgrade this PC, ,by now i have realized that this post has gotten too long and ure a really good guy if ure still reading. Thanks in advance
**On another other note i wont be needing a HDD or Optical drive so do not include that.

Motherboard: ASRock H61M-HVGS Rs. 5,500 from iamextreme
Processor: Intel Core i3 2100 Rs. 10,800 from iamextreme
RAM: G.SKILL NT 4GB+4GB for Rs. 1,950+1,950 from iamextreme
PowerSupply: Xigmatek NRP-PC 502 for Rs. 4,900+- from iamextreme (it should be back in stock in a week or two). oh and im selling my silverstone 650W as well if you're interested.
Graphics Card: Grab a used GTX 560Ti in warranty (should cost somewhere between 17-20k)

Now that makes a total of Rs. 45,100
Now buy a good casing with the remaining budget (don't over spend though). You can find good casings on Galaxy, IAMEXTREME, Czone

p.s I think I covered everything.
p.p.s @others if something that I mentioned is available for much cheaper rates elsewhere please do mention so I can update my post!

What's your monitor's native resolution?

your budget is 50-55 k...I suggest you go for a i5 sandybridge...

mobo asrock h61.......RS. 5500 iamextreme
pro intel i5 2310........Rs. 17300 2.9 (with turbo 3.2) with 6 mb cache

ps.
you can always change some things here and there,
if you have a monitor bigger then 20 inches...I suggest you get a cheaper casing, a i3 2100 and go for a gtx 560 ti gpu

There is no need to overspend on processor, he should get a good GPU i.e 560Ti or equivalent.

@OP
At what resolution you're gonna be gaming at?

thanks a lot for the replies it has helped me a lot but i was browsing online and found tht buying an unbranded PC from say galaxy and then installing a card in it is actually cheaper i mean u can get an i3 for abt 23-24k(it has some kind of warranty as well) and then u can pick a card for about 20 isnt that better, or am i missing something.

A branded system wouldn't give you that same performance that a custom built would and the one that StrikerX has mentioned. Branded system's have different model's and only the highest model would have the better components installed. But that wouldn't justify its price either.

In a custom built PC, you can choose which components give the best performance for the price and not everything needs to be of a low standard as compared to a branded one. Hope that clears it up.

As far as warranty is concerned, that shouldn't be a problem at all once you're buying almost everything from the same place. IMX would take better care of you than galaxy ever would in any way.

No use for going a branded system in that budget,just get the things suggested by other members,wait for the next generation of graphic cards.

casing Thermaltake Commander MS-I ===> rs.3.5k czone
gpu ati hd 7770 sapphire ==============> rs.17k galaxy

A total of 44.35k

mate i think its the best rig u can in this price and save a bit of money for future updates and i dont think for mediocre gaming u need high a end gpu like gtx 560ti than again its ur call....best of luck :-)

[Cerberus]

lol everyone suggesting asrock h61m board maybe because its available at Iamextreme.net
no offense to ImX but its very low end board. no pci slot. atleast 1 pci slot should be available when buying a Board
@saudtanvir why dont you sell your current pc? you will get much better specs pc in that budget
for Now Board: Intel DH61wW at 5750
Processor : i5 2400 18000
Memory : 4gb kingston or gskill doesnt matter :2k
Casing : Casecom 9188-9288 from eastec RWP, Bitfenix merc alpha. thermaltake v3-4 or new commander mS-1. the most you like but be away from CM elite series (elite 431 is not included)
PSU : I Cant find any GOOD psu on stores so I will leave this option (maybe GX450 Antec 430d or corsair 430) (buy any around 6k)
and GPU: EVGA 560ti 25k (not sure though)
