this setup will raise your budget a little but the whole setup is worth spending that extra money
you can change casing with usp100 in order to make it 75k but as you are going to buy a high end gaming pc so i suggest you to get cm690

and for prices checkout

galaxy.pk
czone.com.pk

^^ Agreed with Sunny On All Aspect beside MB...
Get Atleast P7P55D or P7P55D-E so You Can OC It Better and Run Stable.....and Its better chipset then H series
For i7----I recommend p55....either get ASUS Or MSI but MSI is a hard find here....!!
Not to Forget P7P55D Series 12 power phase for better stability :) thats really helpful when you OC your system and i7 surely deserve that MB....!! i got it for my i5 and it deserves it price :)

I'd suggest you to drop the idea of the i7 860 and get the i5 750 instead. Checked some reviews and performance difference between the two in games in very small and not worth the extra 8k. SO leave it.

As for the motherboard, you can go in two directions, get Asus P55 board for 10k around or if you want to go CF or SLI then in 15k. Now if you DONT wanna OC (there is no need really to OC for 10-15% performance increase) then buy an Intel board instead. DP55WB is available for 9.5k. however this is ONLY if you dont want to OC plus Intel boards have better warranty service in PK and warranty period is longer.

For Rams go for Corsair XMS3 DDR3 4GB kit for 11k or 2Gb kit for 7k. HDD is fine 1TB for 7k (seagate 7200.12)

As for your comment about PSU and casing, dont consider it as a waste of money, better PSU= better reliablity of your whole system, after the motherboard it is no doubt the most important part of your computer so dontt skimp on it. Casing depends on your personal choice. Anothing above CM690 is useless for you unless you want better looks.

So here's what I'd suggest in general:

Suggestion no.1 :

Core i5 750 18.6k
Asus P7P55D 14.5k
Corsair XMS3 4GB 7k
Seagate 7200.12 1TB drive 7k
DVD-RW 2k
Xigmatek 600watt PSU 6k

Cost: 58000, Money left 12k for HD5750 (since the board supports Crossfire, you can add another HD5750 later on for added performance)

Suggestion no. 2:
Core i5 750 18.6k
Intel DP55WB for 9.5k
Corsair XMS3 DDR3 2GB 7k
1TB HDD 7k
DVDRW 2k
Xigmatek 500watt PSU 5k
CM 690II 8k

This setup leaves aboutt 18k with which you can get HD5770 (wont recommend it) or you can wait and get GTX460 when Alienware imports them. (best GPU you can get at the moment under 20k)

i7-860 is different than i7-920...mostly i7-920 is compared with i5.....860 is Good Bu i5 will also do job ......!! Both Have almost same Power consumption with same Spec...Most Imp....i7-860 Is LGA1156 whereas 920 is 1366....!!
If You need To get It......Then For OC....Keep In Mind That You Also Need aftermarket cooler Like Of Noctua,Xigmatek,Cooler master Etc....So save Some For It too.... + Thermal paste....!!
P7P55D is No Available anymore On Galaxy so you have To Get P7P55D-E For 17400..
Revising Your Rig You Can Get

i7-860------------------ -26200(Galaxy Have It Short....will Find In Market)
ASUS P7P55D-E--------17400
2GBx2 Corsair---------- 8800
500W PSU Xigmatek------5450(frm alienware including shipping)
500GB HDD seagare-------4250
CM690II-------------------7800
GPU HD5770--------------17300(Or wait For GTX460..Cost More)
DVD-RW-------------------2300
********************************
90k appx

Thats The Best You can get If You Raise It Till 90...!! cooler Is still Missing in It
So i5 Is best for your budget keeping MB same......!! H series MB won't Do good As P series As OC results On Them are just Great....!!
If You make It

i5-750------------------ -18400
ASUS P7P55D-E--------17400
2GBx2 Corsair---------- 8800
500W PSU Xigmatek------5450(frm alienware including shipping)
500GB HDD seagare-------4250
CM690II-------------------7800
GPU HD5770--------------17300(Or wait For GTX460..Cost More)
DVD-RW-------------------2300
********************************
82k Appx.....!!

Get 4Gb ram As 2Gb will Just Don't Do Justice with either of Processors Mentioned above....!!

---------- Post added at 01:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 AM ----------

Keep 6k For later Or save Later and get good CPU Cooler for OC Your rig Upto 3.8Ghz easily on Under Stable With Under control Temp....!!
Cooler Master V8,Thor's Hammer Xigmatek DarkKnight and Other with arctic MX-3 thermal paste are recommended later for OC Purpose...!!

^ Sorry bro but ur going the wrong way <_<

OC is secondary, get good components first, screw the CPU cooler, you can get that later :p Focus on a good PSU, mobo, processor, ram GPU becuase thats what really matters.

Btw why r u stuck on i7 860? Why not i5 750? :p

What if you build you pc with 1366 platform.. leave cooler and 2 gb ram for now and build your pc with i7 920 and some nice x58 mobo.. u may add cooler, ram, high end gpu when u get money but changing platform is not that easy even if u have buck in the pocket...

Sorry bro but thats a pretty unbalanced PC <_<
..
I told you before and now I am saying it again, I7 860 WONT give you much benefit over an i5 for games. Save 8k over there and send on a better GPU instead. When you are spending that much why not wait and get GTX460 which is worth the cash atleast.

HD5770 isnt a good choice anymore
