DIY gaming PC within 70000 | Affordable and Faster than a branded PC

We are in an era where gaming has become a career choice which is obviously a great option for gaming enthusiasts. Back then when I started gaming, it was a very close community and the technology was also not that evolved like the current scenario. I’m from a generation who has played games on Victor 98, PS original, PS2, and PCs powered by Intel Core 2 Duo processor. Yeah! Back then, these were among the best consoles which fulfilled our gaming needs, but the gaming scenario in 2021 has completely changed and there are an array of options if you’re interested in gaming. 

Numerous brands are available in the market that offers gaming laptops, consoles, high-end gaming PC components and a lot more. All these options are really fascinating, but too many options can lead you to confusion and we don’t want you to get confused. If you’re planning to build a gaming PC and hunting for the best configurations then you might have landed on the correct page. We have explained everything that you require to build a gaming PC under Rs 70,000 price bracket. So here are the components you will be needing to build one for yourself. 

AMD Ryzen 5 3500X (Rs 13,500)

CPU is the brain of a computer and you must know that a good CPU can help you in smooth gaming and take the necessary processing burden without complaining. We recommend AMD Ryzen 5 3500X because it's one the best offerings from the company that falls in the budget segment. It uses Zen 2 architecture and comes with 6 cores and 12 threads. The chipset is built on a 7nm process that is powerful enough to fulfil your gaming needs. You can play AAA games with 1080p resolution and achieve more than a 60fps frame rate without any hustle. 
 

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1660 Super (Rs 22,000)

GPU is the thing that helps the CPU in graphic processing and sharing the load while rendering high-end games or heavy software like Adobe, FCP, and more. The Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1660 Super is a good pair with the AMD Ryzen 5 3500X but you need to spend some money as the electronic market has witnessed a ridiculous hike, all thanks to the ongoing pandemic situation. In this situation, it's tough to get GPUs from online retailers so we recommend you contact an offline one to get a good deal. 
 

GIGABYTE B550M DS3H Ultra Durable Motherboard (Rs 8,762)

When it comes to its motherboard then what else will be a better choice than Gigabyte. The GIGABYTE B550M DS3H Ultra Durable Motherboard will be the best motherboard to fit in the GPU and CPU components. It comes with dual Ultra-Fast NVMe PCIe 4.0/3.0 M.2 connectors, four RAM slots, PS/2 port, 1 HDMI port, 1 DisplayPort, 1 USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A port, 1 USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port, 4 USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports, a 2.5Gbps LAN port, optical audio out port, and a lot more. In this price range, this could be the best motherboard you can buy currently in the market. 
 

Corsair Vengeance LPX 3600MHz DDR4 16GB (Rs 9,740)

For smooth gaming performance, you need good RAM with at least a data transferring speed of 3600MHz. Corsair’s 16GB RAM stick can get the work done and it's more than enough for your PC build to run AAA game titles. You can also invest in an ARGB RAM stick which looks good on your PC but if you’re short on budget then go for the standard RAM rather than the fancy ones because it might cost you more.
 

Crucial P1 1TB PCIe NVMe SSD (Rs 8,200)

Instead of a standard HDD, you can actually go for an SSD because PCIe NVMe SSDs are always a good option over slow hard drives. The Crucial P1 1TB PCIe NVMe SSD comes with a price tag of Rs 8,200 which is a good deal. In case you are not willing to invest that much then you can go for a 512GB SSD and a 1TB HDD combination. Use the SSD for installing operating systems and games and the HDD for storing data. 
 

Ant Esports ICE-400TG Mid Tower Gaming Cabinet (Rs 4,958)

We are done with everything now. The last thing is a good looking RGB gaming PC cabinet that is going to enhance your gaming experience and bring a smile to your face whenever you look at your costume build. Ant Esports ICE-400TG Mid Tower is among the ones that fit our budget and also looks gigantic, it comes with three built-in fans for better airflow as we are not using any additional cooling system. The cabinet also provides a transparent side panel which will allow you to showcase your hardware with RGB fans inside.
