Budget (including currency): 150,000- 175,000 (INR)

Country: India

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Cyberpunk 2077, Borderlands 3, World of Warcraft, Overwatch, Some ML stuff (still learning)

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc):

I've been a long time lurker of these forums, especially this thread looking for advice on picking parts for my first build. I've not had a desktop since 2007 as my workload (university and work) did not really require one. I used to play only WoW on a Mac (i know.. ) till I got my most recent laptop (Legion Y720) back in 2017. Have graduated to stuff like Overwatch, Farcry, Borderlands etc since then. I've been wanting to start a build so that I can finally join the PCMR instead of lurking as a second-class Laptop fiend.

 

Edit 1 - I already have most of the peripherals needed except a keyboard.

 

My expectations - As costs for items in India are quite high, i expect this build to take a few months as I save money to buy the parts. I would like to join Team Red (AMD) given the cost-effectiveness of Ryzen. I also thought that a RTX 3070/80  would probably meet my needs for a few years to come. But as I'm a tech enthusiast and not a techie per-se, I find myself treading water in tech specifications. Please help.
