If I'm converting correctly , it's about $629 , yes ? 

 

Get a Z97 board that you like 

Get an i5-4690K if you don't like it , you could get the i7-4790K

Get aircooling , if you're going after aesthetic , AIO is your choice ( preferably high CFM coolers ) 

8 GB of DDR3 RAM you like . RAM isn't that important , you can choose the ones that looked nice and fits your build ...

Case/cabinet : Phanteks Enthoo Pro or BitFenix Shinobi 

you sshould still have well over $100 dollars , buy a 256GB SSD , preferably Samsung 850 EVO or any brand you like .

 

You might want to upgrade that 760 for future titles but with $600 , it would be best to upgrade later ... 

... Life is a game and the checkpoints are your birthday , you will face challenges where you may not get rewarded afterwords but those are the challenges that help you improve yourself . Always live for tomorrow because you may never know when your game will be over ... I'm totally not going insane in anyway , shape or form ... I just have broken English and an open mind ...

Let's hear some more :)

Okay that's what I've come up with:

 

4690(k) - I'd really suggest going for the K variant but Newegg India doesn't seem to have it. 14343 RS

http://www.newegg.com/global/in/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116989&cm_re=Computer_Processor-_-19-116-989-_-Product

 

Any Z97 Motherboard, if you decide to go for a K processor, that fits you, else you can pick a smaller chipset. They range from 5800 to 17000 RS. Motherboard isn't doing a whole lot for performance anyway. Examples:

http://www.newegg.com/global/in/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157528&cm_re=z97-_-13-157-528-_-Product- 7332 RS

http://www.newegg.com/global/in/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128713&cm_re=z97-_-13-128-713-_-Product- 5738 RS

 

I'd also suggest going for 8 GB RAM - Any 1333 MHz or higher dual channel kit will do. They're approx 3000 RS - 5000 RS.

http://www.newegg.com/global/in/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231544- 3187 RS 

 

Seeing that Samsung 850 EVOs are crazy expensive on Newegg I'd go for a 250GB Crucial MX200

http://www.newegg.com/global/in/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148948&cm_re=ssd-_-20-148-948-_-Product- 7013 RS

 

As case I'd suggest a Fractal Design R5 with window(It's cheaper than without). And seeing that you want to do some light modding a window seems like a good idea.

http://www.newegg.com/global/in/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811352049- 6376 RS

 

For CPU cooling I'd also go for air - Something in the range of 2000 RS, tower cooler preferred.

 

All together that would be approx. 40251 RS. Open to suggestions.

Newegg delivers in India? :o

 

Buy from Local Shops for discounts.

 

Check this: 8wnN3DQ.png

 

Are you ready to pay the taxes and VAT.

 

Check my latest thread, Even I am going to buy from offline. Buying computer stuff online is not cheap as cheap Mobile are for Indians.

There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.
