What about motherboard?

Why invest in a dead platform with no upgrade path? The FX range and the FM3+ socket and DDR3 RAM are no longer current and borderline obsolete.

A cheap Ryzen 3 or Pentium G4560 upgrade would be much better performance wise and give you excellent upgrade options.

This is pretty much the cheapest I could find on pcpartpicker India. It is over budget too. Sizzling is right about fx and fm3+ socket. The g4560 is almost at i3 6100 performance.
