I would check out LTT's recommendations first:

 

Otherwise, my advice would be to buy a used PC with the general specs you're looking for on marketplaces like Ebay, OfferUp, and Mercari and spend an extra $100-$400 on upgrade parts if you need to since the price of new PC parts are kinda inflated due to Covid-19.

 

As for specs to look for in a new or used PC........

 

Processor: Ryzen 7 2700X or better (upgrading to a Ryzen 3700X, 3800X/XT, or 3900X/XT should be more affordable once Zen 3 arrives around November)

 

Graphics Card: GTX 1650 or better if "new" and GTX 980TI/1060 6GB or better if "used" (again prices will likely drop quickly in both new & used markets as new GPUs from AMD and Nvidia arrive in coming months)

 

Motherboard & RAM: pretty dead-on (upgrade as needed)

 

Hard Drive: I would get a Seagate FireCuda 3.5" SSHD drive as they cost about the same as other standard HDDs, but are faster since they come with both a 8GB SSD cache and a 64MB DRAM cache. Otherwise, a Hitachi Ultrastar, Seagate Barracuda, or Seagate Exos high-capacity HDD will get you the most capacity per dollar.

 

SATA SSD: Crucial MX500 or Samsung 860 Evo (more recommendations HERE)

 

M.2 NVMe SDD: Sabrent Rocket, WD Black, Inland Premium, Samsung 970 Evo/Evo Plus, or Crucial P1 (more recommendations HERE)

 

Case: anything with good airflow like the Fractal Design Meshify C or Phanteks P4

 

CPU cooler & case fans: lots of great options from Noctua and Be Quiet!

 

Power Supply: Corsair RMx & TXM Gold, SeaSonic Prime Gold/Platinum, Thermaltake Toughpower GF1, Be Quiet! Straight Power 11 & Pure Power 10, and Cooler Master MWE Gold (more recommendations HERE)

₹90k budget.

Will need it mainly for Premiere pro, After effects, Corel draw, Illustrator, Blender, Photoshop, DaVinci resolve.

I will invest in a good monitor a little later on, don't have the money for it as of now. I already have rest of the peripherals.

Waiting for the market to cool down a bit, things ate very expensive as of now. 1080p to 4k res videos will be edited on that system. As of now I just have a E41-15 Lenovo.
