Hey everyone! I'm putting together a PC build for ₹64,500, which includes GST and assembly. My goal is to run games like CS2, Valorant, GTA V, and Red Dead Redemption 2 smoothly, and I want to be prepared for GTA VI when it launches, ideally aiming for playable settings at 1080p. Here's what I've selected for the build:
- **CPU:** Intel Core i5-12400F
- **Motherboard:** MSI B760M Bomber WiFi DDR5
- **RAM:** G.Skill Ripjaws S5 16GB (1x16GB) DDR5 5200MHz
- **GPU:** Inno3D RTX 3050 Twin X2 8GB (great for recording/streaming)
- **Storage:** WD Blue SN5000 500GB NVMe Gen 4
- **CPU Cooler:** Deepcool AG400 ARGB
- **PSU:** Ant Esports FP550 Bronze
- **Case:** MSI MAG Forge 120A Airflow
- **Monitor:** MSI G255F 180Hz IPS 1080p
- **Assembly:** Included
What I'm hoping to achieve with this setup:
- High FPS for CS2/Valorant (180Hz monitor)
- High settings 1080p for GTA V, aiming for 60 FPS+
- Medium-high settings for RDR2 at 1080p, trying for 60 FPS if possible
- Playable settings for GTA VI at 1080p on medium when it releases (I know it's a bit of a guess).

If you're concerned about future upgrades, you might want to consider switching to the AMD AM5 platform. Intel's platform could feel outdated soon, and that might limit your upgrade options later on. Just a thought!
I'd suggest upgrading the RAM to 32GB, especially for gaming and multitasking. Also, the GPU is a bit on the lower side. Consider switching to an RX 6600 XT or RX 6750 XT; they're much better for your gaming needs, particularly if you're aiming for 1080p at high settings. Also, a 500GB SSD might be tight in a year or two with all the new games coming out. And for a monitor, you might want a better model that's well-rated.
Thanks for the input! My total budget is 60k including the monitor, so I’m trying to balance quality and cost. Any suggestions for a good GPU that fits?
