You'll need a motherboard + Processor and a good graphics card.

Get a used i5 and pair it up with a good graphics card.

You'll get used i5 at around 14-15k.

Spend the rest on graphics card.

I'm selling one and that will be under your budget which can run GTA V and all the other games without any problem.

THANX bro but i prefer everything new and it doesnt matter if its not that powerful. but i m thinking of the following

1.core i3 4th gen
2.nvidia gt730
3 a good motherboard
4.8gb ram

 

[Captain Wajji]

I3 4160 = 12500. Motherboard = 5400. Ram = 6000. Ab dekh lo... 4th gen i3 lene ka faida nhi wese. As far as I know.

 

[Captain Wajji]

Itne me used banwa lo. It will give you performance many times more.

 

[raza585]

hmm will see bro..

Have to agree with cpt. Waji here. I myself upgraded from a similar rig last summer. Got an i5 2400 + mobo for 14k . 4gb 1333mhz ram for 3.2k. And a used gtx 460 for 8k. Everything us working well except the 460 ( after 6 months it developed insane heating issues, but i bought that of olx)
Ps. You may try to get a bit of extra money by selling your current rig.

how much would i get if i sell my current rig? how much its worth?
and how good is the r7 250 graphics card?

 

[Xander]

Well your gpu might go for 3.5-4 k.
Not so sure about your pro and mobo, around 3-3.5 k perhaps.
Ps. These are just my estimates and the price will depend on their condition.

 

[Xander]

Well i would not recommend the r7 250. Its performance is slightly inferior to the hd 7750.

 

[raza585]

ok thanx... so wat should be the final config??

 

[Xander]

Rather than a r7 250, i would suggest a gtx 750(non-ti), it does not require a 6 pin connector and provides significantly better performance than the 250.( around 50-55% more)

 

[raza585]

what is the price of gtx 750?? and i have heard that the r7 250x is also a good card.

 

[Xander]

Well a gtx 750 costs around 15k(new). It is better than the r7 250x, you can compare the two on game debate and see the difference yourself if you like.

 

[Xander]

Just 1 more thing, what chasis (casing) do you currently have? What psu do you have right now?

 

[raza585]

i dont know wat chasis and psu it is coz its quite old, got this pc 5 years ago..lol ran all games till last year when more demanding games started to come,i think the psu is unbranded.lol

 

[Xander]

Well in that case, i would recommend you get a new psu as well. A low quality psu can be very harmful for your pc components.
Well this is what i would suggest.
I5 second gen 2400 around 9-10k
Compatible mobo 4k
4gb ddr3 ram 3-3.5k
A decent psu 2k
Gtx 750 new 15k or a r7 260x 15k
Total around 34 k , if you can manage to sell your old rig for around 6-7 k. This should be in your budget.

 

[raza585]

and how about this?
i5 second gen 9k or corei3 4th gen 12400
mobo 4k
8gb ram 6k
psu 2k
gt 750 12k total 32000 or 35000

10k for my old rig including 4gb ddr2 ram

total 22000 or 25000

 

[Xander]

I would suggest that you get a second gen i5. Otherwise seems okay.
