Hello,
I am planning to buy a pc with i7-4770k
This combo is offering http://www.primeabgb.com/asus-z87-pro-intel-i7-4770k-gskill-16gb-ram.html
1)Asus z87-pro
2)Intel i7-4770K
and
3)GSkill 16GB RAM

Do you think its worth it? I mean is it a nice deal?

while if i buy only i7-4770k it costs me 364$ (23,719rupees) ..
and if i buy same parts separately it costs me this:
(couldnt format it properly so took a screenshot and attached.. :) )

NOTE:
1$=65Rupees
so
53,999rupees = 830$(approx.)


Can you suggest a better motherboard ? And is h100i a good cooler ? ? IF not then can you suggest me a better..

It is impossible for us to judge the quality of a deal in your country as the economy is totally different. I will say the equipment in the bundle is quality gear that can be purchased for about $200 less total in the US. The H100i is also a quality cooler that would serve you well on the i7.

I would personally go for a big air cooler like the Noctua NH-D14. Maybe it is old fashioned but I believe it to have quieter fans and should be more reliable over the long haul though it might be harder to move around if you plan on moving a lot.

h100 is not bad cooler, but as supaxi said, i also prefer some big air cooler
i had NH-D14 on my 'ex' i7 920 and it's really solid cooler.

never had temp over 80C even 1.6v

I think the 16gb of RAM for $200 is a total rip off; even if it is 2133 MHz.

that's some expensive ram... get some generic 1600/1866 speed rams for half the price.

but I can't say much for the cpu/mobo since I don't know how much is "regular price" where you live there. I'll just make that educated guess by the currency (rupees) you listed.

i7 4770k's can be found for as little as $250-$330, and the Asus Z87 PRO for around $180 here in the US
