I have an 80k INR budget to build my gaming pc.
I have selected some parts please check my specs.

AMD 8350

Gigabyte Ga-990 fxa ud3 or Asus M5A99 FX PRO R2.0

G.skill Ripjaws x 1600 (8x2)gb

Wd black 1 tb

Samsung 850 EVO 250gb

Asus 24x DRW writer

Seasonic S12ii 620w

Deepcool Tesseract SW mid tower

I think Sapphire's R9 380 or R9 270x toxic 2gb for my gpu.

Please check is it correct or i have to change anything.

380 is the faster GPU. Newer tech too. Don't buy the 270X.

The CPU + motherboard is a great combination. Be sure to overclock that FX CPU for best results. Absolutely get a CPU cooler. Air, water, whatever. Just buy one.

PSU is overkill, even for an overclocked 380 and FX 8350. But it's better to be safe than sorry.

FX CPUs really like high frequency ram. I'd suggest getting a kit of 1866 ram instead of 1600. That would be all.


PS: You don't need an i5 for a 380. An i3 or an overclocked FX 83x0 is enough.
For a gaming build I'd drop the 8350 and try to get a i5 4460 and a b85 or h97 motherboard. This is usually about the same price or less, and the 4460 is a better gaming cpu. I'd also drop down to 8gb 9f ram and use the extra cash to get a faster gpu.

My AMD Phenom 956 just popped and instead of 200 dollars for an 8350 or better I dropped 400 on an ASUS z97-a motherboard and an Intel I5 Devils Canyon. From a few days of research it seems AMD are over heaters and are about at their limits compared to Intel. I've been an AMD guy for 11 years but time to make the switch if you can.
