Please show me a good gaming computer configuration till my above budget .please do not include the cost of operating system and keyboard and mouse
 
I don't think that you're going to get anything "extreme" for $1650. You also need to give us a link to the pricing in your area so that we can figure out what fits into your budget.

thank you guys for your reply, would it be good if i went with 4 * 2 GB DDR 3 ripjaws ram, also what about sandy bridge core i7 2600k processors they are faster ,and nvidia gtx 580 graphic card . 52000 is way under my budget my budget i can extend till 85000 rupees ($ 1890 US) .
 
^ yes, those are good items to get with the extra money in your budget. The Sandy Bridge processor does have higher performance, but requires a new motherboard - this is a difficult (& personal) choice.

You should also choose a quality monitor first, because the gaming build can then be designed around the resolution/features of your monitor.

Also consider a Solid State Drive (SSD) for your boot/OS partition.

If you're not running at least a 1080P monitor, get that first. Then get a GTX 580 + 750W PSU. Then Sandy Bridge + P67, finally get 8GB of RAM.
 
@ mfenn what's a 1080p monitor ? Is it good for gaming? . Also i have my old keyboard and mouse from my old pentium 4 rig ,would they suffice or should i get new keyboard and mouse . Also tell me should i get wireless keyboard and mouse or with wires. Also please show me some good gaming keyboard + mouse till 3000 indian rupees ($ 68 US)
 
1080p is just HD (1920x1080) old keyboard and mouse should be fine but you can get a new set if you like, RAZOR usually makes good gaming peripherals however I am not sure of their presence over seas. I prefer wired, but it is up to the individual to decide what they like best.
 
if i opt for sandy bridge cpu (core i7 2600k) then , should i get a new cpu fan and heatskin or the fan and heatskin provided by intel with the processor would suffice ? Also should i get any water cooling for my processor ? but i do not plan to overclock any of the parts of my computer. If i were to overclock my processor or graphic card would my power requirements increase? i am planning to use cooler master RC-690-kkn1 -GP as my cabinet which has 3 fans in it ,it is a midtower would it be sufficient for cooling my computer hardware or should i get some extra fans ,it has 6 fans capacity.
 
The hyper 212+ is a good after market heatsink, if you aren't overclocking there is no need however. Water cooling is not needed. If you overclock your power draw will increase be prepared for that if you decide to overclock.
 
If you want SandyBridge, then i5-2500k is a good choice for gaming. You can even get the non-k version if you do not want to overclock.

The CoolerMaster 690 series are nice cases with good airflow, but a mid-range after-market heatsink/fan like the Hyper212+ (good choice, mnewsham!) will help keep the processor cool in the hot Mumbai climate.

hey guys i have finally selected the following configuration for my gaming pc - COOLER MASTER RC-690-KKN1-GP - cabinet G.SKILL RIPJAWS 4 * 2 DDR3 1600 - ram Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 ST31000528AS 1TB 7200 RPM - HDD intel core i7 2600K with HD 3000 graphics - processor asus GTX 580 overclocked - graphic card MSI P67A-GD55 - mobo SAMSUNG B2230 Glossy Black 21.5 inch 1080p monitor SeaSonic S12D 750 Silver 750W - power supply Sony 24X Internal Sata High Speed DVD RW - DRU-880S-ZR - dvd player Creative SBS 2.1 A100 Speakers including my old keyboard and mouse , guys please do comment if there is a change possible in my above configuration. If there is a need to add something new also give me suggestions . Also when will the new ati radeon 6990 be available in the market ? Also what will be its starting price ? will it be till $ 584 dollars or higher ? Should i get 6990 or stick with GTX 580 ?
 
The i7 is a waste get the i5, get 1333mhz RAM you wont notice the difference, get the samsung f3 its a better hdd
 
@MNEWSHAM you are telling me that i7 is a waste ,please explain me why not to buy i7 and instead buy i5, i don't have much knowledge on computer hardware .

I agree totally. The i5 is already wickedly fast, that ram is plenty fast, and it saves more money for a better graphics card, monitor, or whatever. The most common mistake I see in peoples' builds is to get a really expensive cpu and a crappy gpu.

This. OP, your money would be better spent on a bigger monitor. 21.5" is quite small.

Good point. I just upgraded to a 27" samsung and it rocks!

These days if you have more then enough for a high end rig the next big question is what monitor you want.
