Dont have enough money to for that right now. Just need to upgrade the part i mentioned
what sort of problem you're facing. and whats your major usage in PC. i guess for good end gaming you need to have far better gpu than this.

Could you tell more about this motherboard? there are many models named H81

It was hanging alot. Now it is not starting up. I have checked the rams and hdd on another computer, they are fine. Its the mobo that is faulty i think. But i cant change the mobo only becasue my processor and rams cant fit in those so I am changing all three.
I was gaming when I first made this pc, 5 years ago. Right now i just want to use it normally. I want the best option i can get in this budget.
adn I will upgrade the gpu soon

Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-H170
Processor: Intel Core i5-6500 Skylake

That seems alright with DDR4 config or you could maybe opt for 4th gen i7 4790 (32800rs)with above mentioned H81 boards and ram for around 42k

I see 'Dany 500W PSU'
This is the MOST compromising position.
Dedicate ample budget most importantly on buying a Decent PSU i.e Corsair VS550 etc before even thinking about any other thing.

also i shall recommend you core i5 2nd / i5 3rd Gen+ H61 if you are limited by budget. you may be able to save some and get a decent GPU along with it to fulfill your graphical needs too.

however if you are confident that in sometime more you can accumulate more budget then you can also choose to buy the GPU later and can choose 4rth/5th or 6th Gen Hardware based on your budget.
i only recommend 6th gen to the ones who are not budget constraint because i think it is a more viable and upgradable platform in the future .i.e DDR4 and so on.
