Oh man, $3500 budget? USD? That's a huge amount... Your current build is about $700. But you know, less is more.



System RAM has nothing to do with Graphics card RAM.



Choose 1333mhz ram, the difference between 1600 and 133 is only 1-3% and you'll be unable to see the difference.



Get a 500-600watt powersupply made by a good brand such as Corsair, Antec, SeaSonic, OCZ, or Coolermaster. You don't want to cut corners when choosing a PSU. Choose a good quality one.



I would suggest a cheap aftermarket cooler such as the CoolerMaster Hyper 212+. The stock AMD fans get the job down, but they're pretty loud, which is not okay (for me atleast).

The RAM (the 4GB one) doesn't go into your graphics card, it's a seperate piece. 1333 MHz is fine, 1600 doesn't make a difference, really. Any 500-600 watt PSU by Antec or Corsair would be fine, but for the BEST performance, 750 watt is great.

Oh, and you said you have a budget of around 3.5k? What currency? If USD, then hell, you can upgrade your rig further than that. I suggest the 1090T BE processor (AMD), the HD 6950 (I preder MSi's Twin Frozr III cards), and 4GB of RAM is still good - but if you want it to last a little while, try 8GB.

Any DDR3 RAM will do. But atleast get 1333MHz or 1600MHz if you can. Corsair 4GB DDR3 Value RAM with 1333MHz costs Rs.1300 only and Corsair XMS-3 1600MHz 4GB DDR3 RAM costs Rs.1500 and Corsair Vengeance 4GB DDR3 1600MHz with Heat Sink cost Rs.1700.

The difference between 1333MHz and 1600MHz is the speed of 267MHz (1600-1333).



For 3.5k you can get Seasonics S1II 520 520W PSU. This one comes with 5yrs warranty is a great but at this price.

If you have 3.5k as total budget for both RAM and PSU then increase ur budget a bit and get:

* Corsair CX-500v2 -- 3k

* Corsair 4GB Value RAM -- 1.3k

The cheapest good PSU option available is FSP SAGA-II 500W worth Rs.2200. But i suggest you to stick with Corsair or Seasonic.

This is a nice budget gaming build.

It's not a huge difference from 1333MHz ro 1600MHz.



You said you want to keep your budget within 3.5k? What currency are you talking about?



As for you PSU, I would suggest a 500w psu from a good manufacturer (Antec, Seasonic, OCZ, Corsair). There are a few other brands that are okay.



Here's an example of a good one at a good price:

to keep your temp within limits don't buy amd p2 x4 955 as this processor has 125w tdp so generates more heat and more power consumption.



Intel core i3 2100 can beat amd p2 x4 955 in gaming,this processor has 65w tdp so generates less heat,more efficient and less power consumption.



Intel chipset motherboard - asus p8h67 m le or msi h67ma-e35

ram - 4gb ddr3 ram @ 1333mhz

1 cabinet fan 120mm



i recommend 600w psu from brands like corsair,seasonic,antec,coolermaster.

If your budget is 3.5k, then you can have a very high end pc, that's about a $700 one. Upgrade everything if you want.
