Building a Budget PC

[The Punisher]

Hello People..

Guyz i am looking to build a basic PC which will fulfill my requirements of web browsing, photo editing, HD video watching and some casual gaming... My budget is max 36k.... Currently I have considered the following components.

Processor:Intel® Core™ i3-2100 Processor (3M Cache, 3.10 GHz) Rs 11.2k
Hard Disk: WD Caviar Green 500 GB Rs 4250
Memory: Corsair DDR3 2GB Value Select Rs 2000

Total: Rs 17450


Now I need suggestions for a budget Motherboard, Casing, PSU and if possible a GFX card though it is not a necessity. Help will be appreciated. Thank you

core i3 2100 ....11000 local market
seagate 500gb....4000 local market
memory gskill value ram....2000 including shipment from iamextreme.net

Thanks for the reply guys... ... Seems I have to eliminate my option for a GPU... Will get a better motherboard... Currently thinking about MSI P67A-C43 and Asus P8H67.... Which one is better among these??

no need of getting p67 board if u not getting k series processor but if u getting a k series processor in near future then get a p67a-c43 if not then asus p8h67

I am basically trying to get USB 3.0 feature in the mobo and these were the one I could find....

 

[jack]

actually there is another board which has usb 3.0 support, and is not as expnsive ....it is Intel DH61BE (B3) for 7700 rs.With this you can still buy a good graphic card and have usb 3.0 support as well.

Therefore now my suggestion is:


mobo intel.......................7500 (DH61-be(B3)) (astrontech) (with usb 3.0 + surround sound)
pro i3 2100......................11000 ( you have already chosen)
hd seagte 500 gb.............3800 (cheaper and better)
dvd r..............................700
ram 2gb 1333..................2000 ( you have already chosen corsair value select)
case normal china............1000 (if you want to go for a branded case then your gpu budget will be reduced)
psu antec vp450 w...........3300
gpu gt 240 512 mb ddr3...for 6500 or XFX 5670 512 mb ddr 3 for 6700 rs (still can play games at medium low settings)

total...............36000

i recommend you msi over asus motherboard. i never saw that good MSI motherboard in 10k range. this motherboard is one of the best mobo in 10k price range with heatsinks and very good overclocking support

I see... What about any Gigabyte motherboard??... Heard they were awesome.. And sunny can you recommend a good casing?? Thanks for the help mate

 

[MOHSIN HADI]

msi h61-e23 b3
This is the best budget mobo.

gigabyte motherboards are very good but at this time in 10k range no gigabyte motherboard is available and this msi motherboard is better choice as its P67 chipset.
and for casing what is your budget ?

 

[The Punisher]

My budget for casing is max 5k... And about this Msi motherboard... I have heard that it has no heat sinks??...

 

[sunny945]

yeah no heat sinks but in a 10k board what more you are expecting
and in 5k budget Antec 300 will be a good choice for you
