[BUILD] Build me a computer!

I am looking to buy a new pc.
Wouldnt mind building a new one myself.

Budget: 1000$
Country: India
Local Sites: amazon.in , flipkart.com
Note: Amazon.com is fine but parts you list should be available for shipping to India.
For amazon.com make it 1200$ including shipping charges.


Purpose: Want to try different linux distros on it so Vm should handle it.Adobe PS and Visual Basic, music, browsing.
Basically PC should handle it without a hitch. I absolutely hate slow performance or lagging that why paying this much for general tasks.

Gaming: Games on high settings would be good.

Case: Can be simple. Main focus is on performance.
Monitor, Mouse, Keyboard: Will buy separately, so suggestions are welcome.

Thank you.

TBH it's not the ideal build but it's the best you can do on the given budget.
I gave no attention to appearance and went for best performance with the budget not sure what else to say....

I dropped the GPU down to a 1050ti, so I could bump up the CPU to the 6-core Ryzen 5 1600, faster memory, but dropped the hard drive in favour of an SSD, which will make your system feel less laggy/more responsive.

Grab another stick of RAM and this hard drive later when you can.

Yeah, I thought about dropping the HDD for an SSD like you say but I felt as though OP needed the space, and I would rather recommend a better SSD TBH the 850 EVO 250GB was the goal but just couldn't squeeze it in...

Agreed on the 480 > 1050Ti as well... to fit the 1600, I just feel the 480 is a much better card that would make more of an impact for everything else other than the VM's.... the 4 core 1400 should be ok for 2-3 VM's given 4 cores 8 threads... but the 6 core will be better no doubt...
Thank you everyone for your answers.
I am considering 3 options here:

1. Buying the above parts from amazon india.

2. Buy the parts in usa , deal with a hf user using a MM and having it shipped to me.
If I choose 2nd option will the shipping charges + MM fee + User fees , will make it worth the parts I will get from buying in USA
Or will it be too much hassle?

3. I buy from local stores here using the name you gave in list but then if some component is not available , how would I be able to know which will work with what pc part?

Thnx everyone for helping me out.

Personally I can't say, I would think the hassle and the extra costs would negate any savings....

EDIT:
3- well go to the shop and if they don't have a specifc part see what they do have for a similar price and the shop might be able to say if they are compatible or worst case ask here and then you will know...

What I meant to say was that:
If I buy 1000$ build in usa and have it shipped for 200$
vs
1200$ build in india

would they be almost same in performance?
I think better parts are available for cheap in USA(?) Am I right here?

I just did a rough estimate for about 75 lbs shipping to India and it cost $82 on top of the $1200 value I entered through UPS. With the middleman fees, it should be around $100-$120 more. I'm not sure if you should do that to be honest. If the same parts are all available for Amazon India, why not just order through there?

I honestly don't have any idea if same part are available or not because someone else made the parts list for me.

I just did a build in USD and it ended up being $1000 and it was a nice one.

Converted that same one to Indian Rupees and that ended up being: Total: ₹100990.00

May be cheaper to have a middleman ship it to you.

That's 40,000 more than his budget...... regardless of where he buys I would assume they still have to convert from rupee to USD....

Obviously the parts are available (in my list) as they are from amazon.in sooo...
