This image is strictly for visual purposes only, the real PC build may or may not look like the one pictured above


With GPU supplies increasing slowly but steadily, the prices are also coming to track slowly. As of now, it's expected for the supplies to get better during the midst of 2022. Nvidia recently said that it expects the GPU shortage to cap off when we are halfway through 2022, while Intel CEO also said a similar thing to expect an improvement this year.

However, the prices stay far away from what they used to be back then, it's still a decent amount of time to wait for. However, you can still custom build your gaming PC with descent 60+ FPS performance at 1080p resolutions under 50000 Rupees in 2022.

What to expect?

Here's an understanding for you about what you should expect from this PC build and what you cannot as it's not a high-end one so you won't be able to rock on 4k graphics absolutely neither you will edit in 4k, but still its descent enough to rock on 1080p with more than 60 FPS on every (ugh... I mean most of) AAA titles.

What do you get?

In all our builds, the most important criteria are to recommend the PC part list within the price tag we claim which is 50000 rupees in this one. As you know with the current stock shortage and high demands, prices are higher than ever so that means we had to make some comprises in this one to keep up the list within the budget. 

We don't want to recommend anything below the Ryzen 5 3500 or Intel i5-10th Gen and GTX 1050 Ti for a PC meant to rock on games at 1080p, 60 FPS, we won't be able to get you guys an SSD on this one because adding that will get you over 50k mark however we do have selected a fast 1 TB of HDD from Seagate.

Despite this, it's worth paying some extra cash if you are really into building an ultimate rig during this time. This is the best gaming pc that you can build during this time for the price of 50000 and is very easy to upgrade in the future with even the latest Nvidia 30 series GPUs and ryzen processors of up to 3rd generation as well as a memory config. of up to 32 Gbs.

Note: You can actually run the AMD 5000 series of processors on our B450M motherboards but you will have to update the BIOS.

Performance

This is the second most important thing every folk look into after they have considered the price of a PC build, its Power!!!

No! not a magical power, by power, we mean the performance of the PC while playing games, doing some metrics type hacking like those, graphic designing or a boomer just attending his online classes or doing his homework after getting the 1st dose of his mommy's slap. Anyway, enough of the jokes let's really talk about the performance now.

You'll get an average of 120+ FPS while playing games like CS:GO at 1080p / Max Settings, 50 FPS in Death Stranding at 1080p / Medium Settings, 60 FPS in DOOM Eternal at 1080p / Medium Settings, 100 FPS in Fortnite / Medium Settings and finally 120 FPS in GTA-5 at 1080p / High Settings. 

Apart from gaming, you'll also be able to do full video editing with not so quick but decent rendering time and for some more easy tasks like daily life browsing, office or school work it would work without any issues.

AMD vs Intel

If you have pretty decent knowledge in building pcs, you might be wondering why we have recommended an AMD builds when there is an Intel core i5-10400f which has slightly better multi-core performance than the Ryzen 5 3500 and comes with features like Hyperthreading and gives a few extra frames in some games.

Well, the short answer is Price, Gaming Performance, and some technical specs such as ram compatibility. The Ryzen 5 3500 have higher clock speeds, supports overclocking and comes cheaper than its intel counterpart and also comes with one stock cooler. However, if you are more into graphics and video editing work then you should consider the Intel one.

Upgradability

You can upgrade up to 32 GBs of DDR4 Ram(s) (only 2 ram slots available), any GPU from Nvidia & AMD, and AMD processors of up to Ryzen 5000 generation now because GALAX has recently released a BIOS update allowing us to be able to use the 5000 gen CPUs on this board as well, apart from that you will also be able to load up to 2 SSDs and 2 HDDs at a time. However, you won't be able to switch from AMD to Intel as this motherboard is only meant for AMD processors.

Bored enough reading those tons of details we just gave you? ok, that's enough let's move on to the main part. Now let us take a look at the final list of our components for this 50k pc build:

CPU - Ryzen 5 3500

Ryzen 5 3500 CPU - Best For 50k Gaming PC Build
Ryzen 5 3500
{getButton} $text={Amazon} $icon={cart}
  • 7nm Zen 2 architecture
  • 6 clocks, 6 threads
  • Base Clock - 3.6 GHz ; Max Clock - 4.1 GHz
  • 19MB Cache (3MB L2 + 16MB L3)
  • Maximum memory Support of DDR4-3200MHz

At first, we chose the Ryzen 5 3600 but considering the budget, we would've never been able to add that into our list without hindering the 50k mark or making some compromise with the GPU, but I don't think going below the GTX 1050 Ti is a better choice for a PC meant to rock on 1080 / Max Settings @ 60+ FPS. So we stepped down a bit and choice the Ryzen 5 3500 from AMD in case you aren't familiar.

The Ryzen 5 3500 is built on a 7nm Zen 2 architecture with a Max Turbo Core Frequency of 4.1GHz and a Base Clock Frequency of 3.6GHz. Featuring impressive 6 cores and 6 threads for such a low price offers 19MB Cache (3MB L2 + 16MB L3) and maximum memory Support of DDR4-3200MHz.

It does come with an AMD Wraith Stock Cooler as well so you won't have to spend extra for that, talking about the capability of the cooler, it would work fine without issues (without OC) but I am not sure about overclocking so prefer a better cooler if you want to do so.

GPU - Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti

Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti - Best GPU For 50k Gaming PC Build
Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
{getButton} $text={Amazon} $icon={cart}
  • 4GB GDDR5 VRAM
  • 1341 MHz Base Clock; 1455 Max Boost Clock
  • 2 Fans

Nvidia's GeForce GTX 10 series has always been like a best friend for budget gamers all around the globe. It doesn't only provide excellent performance, but also comes at an affordable price. However, it is slightly overpriced and you very much know why so there's no point telling the same thing again and again.

Talking about its specs, you get 4 GB of GDDR5 type VRAM clocked at 1341 MHz which can be boosted up to 1455 MHz Boost Clock in OC mode. Also, it's very compact and also does come with 2 fans to keep maintain the heat.

As of January 2022, the Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti is the best that you can get for building a Gaming PC Build Under 50000. As far our personal experience and seeing some FPS testing videos online, we can say that you will get 60 + FPS in most of the latest big games at 1080p / Max settings, 120+ FPS in games like CS: GO and GTA-5 at 1080p / High Settings however you will only get around 40 FPS in Cyberpunk at 1080p / High settings

RAM - Corsair Vengeance 8 GB DDR4, 3200 Mhz

Corsair Vengeance DDR4 8GB, 3200: Best choice for gaming pc build under 50k
Corsair Vegeance DDR4 8GB, DDR4
{getButton} $text={Amazon} $icon={cart}
  • 8GB DDR4 Ram @ 3200 MHz
  • XMP 2.0 Enabled

You might be thinking why we didn't go with 2 channel 8GB ram configuration, then you are right 2 channels are always better than a single stick. However, a single 4GB DDR4 Ram sticks clocked @ 3200 MHz costs you 3000 rupees at the cheapest, for which you can get an 8GB DDR4 Ram Stick from corsair clocked @ 3200 Mhz.

Comes with XMP 2.0 support, which means all it takes is just one click to set up this ram stick to the fastest safe speed for your PC, aluminium heat spreader to optimally pull heat away from the ICs and into your system’s cooling path, so you can push it harder and its compact small size makes it ideal for smaller cases or any system where internal space is at a premium.

Storage - Seagate Barracuda 1TB HDD

{getButton} $text={Amazon} $icon={cart}
  • 1TB Storage
  • SATA 6 Gb/s
  • 7200 RPM
  • 64 MB Cache

We won't be able to get you an SSD as we already did mention at the start of this article. However, the 1 TB HDD is also very fast and ideal for gaming. Moving at 7200 RPM and runs on SATA 6 Gb/s with 64 MB of cache. 

And the most important part for us Indians is a warranty, right? So don't worry folks Seagate does provide 2 years of warranty on this one.

Motherboard - Galax B450M

{getButton} $text={Amazon} $icon={cart}
  • USB 3.1 supported
  • 32 GBs of DDR4 @ 3200 MHz of ram supported
  • PCIe 3.0 enabled

We've chosen a B450 motherboard from Galax as it can not only hold up to 32 GBs of DDR4 ram clocked @ 3200 MHz across 2 x DIMM Slots but can also run AMD Ryzen 1st, 2nd, 3rd and now 5th Gen as they recently released a BIOS update for 5th generation of Ryzen CPU's.

Equipped with a total of 4 X USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports (2 on I/O), and 8 x USB 2.0 ports (2 on I/O). It comes with 1 x Display Port, 1 x DVI-D (Display HD Graphics) and 1 x HDMI port. Moreover, it comes with PCIe 3.0 enabled M.2 slot and 4 x SATA 6Gbps slots but you will only be able to fit 2 in our PC case.

PSU - Ant eSports 600-watt

Ant eSports 600-watt PSU: Best For 50000 Gaming PC Build
Ant eSports 600-watt PSU
{getButton} $text={Amazon} $icon={cart}
  • 600 watts of power
  • 120mm fan inbuilt
  • 2 Years Warranty

Even a 450-watts power supply could have been enough to run this build but there's no point getting one when you can have a 600-watt power supply for the same price. Also, it's worth noting that having more power also allows you room for future upgrades, so in this PC 600 watts will be overkill but it won't harm anything. 

Just remember a PSU generally operates at its maximum efficiency at around 50% of its rated output. We strongly recommend getting this one, or you can also opt for an option from the Corsair CV series. Both are good brands and have good reputations.

Coming to the technical part, the PSU comes with a 120mm fan which the company claims to be less noisy, and comes with all the cables for a modern high-end system including a dual 4 pin CPU connector as well as a full 2-year warranty.

Things to Consider

Various factors affect the choice of a person before going to make a purchase. It varies by a person's choice or the type of use. Anyway, here are some of the basic things that you need to consider before going to buy any of these components or building a custom gaming PC build.

Upgradability

It's worth making sure that your pc is upgradable. Any PC will not last forever as you'll have to upgrade your components at some point. So you may try to select a motherboard that is compatible with the future upgrades you do, and a big-enough pc case to support your future graphics cards. This PC Build is upgradable which means you can add the higher versions of the components without worrying about motherboard compatibility however please do a double check before going ahead with an upgrade so that you won't face any upgradability problems.

Daily-Life Tasks

Most people build a PC in which they can do all the work, for instance, gaming, office/school work etc. So make sure to pick the parts that are capable of handling your daily life tasks other than gaming. This will be able to handle every of the daily life tasks as well as production work such as full HD video editing, easy graphics designing etc.

Aesthetics

A Gaming Build is not complete without RGBs and Good Looking chassis. Just like the performance, the aesthetics of the build depends on how much you put into your build. We've put the best components possible to make this build as good looking as possible. If you want, you can get some RGB fans for around 1 to 2 thousand rupees to make it look even better.

Overclocking

Overclocking is getting easier with time, you need not be a technical expert to perform it. The companies are making their hardware more user friendly so that you can also perform overclocking without burning something. It's a great way of extracting some extra juice from your pc, but be careful and do everything right and if you don't know how to do it, then get some assistance, otherwise you'll end up blowing up your pc.
PC Hardware Terms to Remember
Many people might not get the terms that are used in PC Building stuff like Frequency, Clock Speed, Cores and Threads. So before jumping into building a Custom Gaming PC Build. You should first be familiar with all the necessary terms that are used in PC Hardware

CPU (Central Processing Unit)

CPU stands for Central Processing Unit which is the Brain of your computer where the tasks that you do is processed. These are tiny chips packed with tons of transistors and are getting faster and smaller each and every year. A CPU is the most important component that you need to select very carefully as most of your PC's performance depends upon it.

GPU (Graphics Processing Unit)

The function of both CPU and GPU is almost the same. Where a CPU is a central processor a GPU is used to perform Graphical processes such as rendering and all that Graphics stuff. Adding a GPU to your system can double the performance as your CPU will no longer have to handle the graphical processes, while the GPU is built specifically for it so it can perform Graphical processes very well which results in a smoother gameplay experience and higher Graphics

Integrated Graphics

Many of today's CPUs come with built-in Graphics of their own like AMD's Vega and Intel's HD Graphics. CPUs with Integrated Graphics can function well without any External GPU while a CPU without any Integrated Graphics will not be able to do so (Please Note the CPUs with Integrated Graphics also use some of your system's memory to do their work well).

PSU (Power Supply Unit)

The Power Supply. It's a big transformer with usually one Fan which makes a lot of noise. It's the distributor of power metered in Wattage to all of your PC's components including Motherboard, CPU, GPU, Ram etc.    

SSD (Solid State Drive)

SSD stands for Solid State Drive and is the latest Technology in PC Storage. They are faster than HDD (Hard Disk) which have Moving Mechanical parts but also SSDs cost more than HDDs as they are faster, smaller, and less energy-consuming since they have no moving parts at all.

HDD (Hard Disk Drive)

As mentioned above, an HDD is a storage device type that has moving Discs inside it and the RPM of the movement determines its Read & Write Speed. HDDs are cheaper than SSDs but are slower than them, bigger than them, and also produce nice. The chances of an HDD stopping working are high as anything can go wrong with the moving parts inside it.

PCIe (Peripheral component interconnect express)

PCIe short for (peripheral component interconnect express) is a primarily used interface to connect high-speed components to the motherboard including Graphics Card, Ram, SSDs, Bluetooth/WiFi Cards etc. PCIe slots comes with different configurations: x1, x4, x8, x16, x32. The number after "x" specifies how many lanes the connector has (how much data travel to and from the PCIe Card). PCIe x1 slot has one lane where data can move at one bit per cycle, 4 bits per cycle in PCIe x4 and so on.

SATA (Serial ATA)

SATA Stands for Serial ATA which is a computer bus interface to connect motherboards to SATA HDDs, SSDs, and Optical Drives. SATA also have its different types which are as follows:
  • SATA II: It is a Second Gen Interface running at 3.0 Gb/s, supports up to 300MB/s bandwidth and has a maximum cable length of up to 1 meter.
  • SATA III: SATA 6 Gb/s is a third-gen SATA Interface running on 6.0Gb/s. It supports up to 600Mb/s of bandwidth and a cable length of up to 1 meter. It's worth noting that SATA III is backwards compatible with SATA II Interface.
  • ESATA: It stands for External SATA which uses more strong connectors and increases cable length by up to 2 meters.
MSATA: Mini SATA is applicable for Netbooks and some other small devices that require smaller SSDs. It's very much similar in appearance to a PCI Express Mini Interface and both are electrically compatible
SATA Express: SATA Express is a computer bus interface that supports both Serial ATA and PCI Express storage devices, initially standardized in the SATA 3.2 specification.

Cores/Threads

A CPU Core is a CPU's processor. One core means your CPU can handle one task and a time. Modern-day CPUs can have up to 64 Core. While the threads are the virtual codes that divide a core into multiple virtual parts. A 4 Cores and 8 Threads CPU means in your processor, 1 core is sharing 2 Threads (assuming they are evenly distributed).

RAM (Random Access Memory)

RAM (aka Random Access Memory) is a short term storage device for your computer where all the action using information is stored so that it can be accessed as fast as possible. The more programmes you run on your computer at a time, the more RAM you'll need.

VRAM (Video Ram)

Video Random Access Memory is a dedicated memory type that your Graphics Card uses to store the information about pixels and other graphical content appearing on your screen.

DIMM Slots (Dual in-line Memory Module Slots)

DIMM (Dual in-line Memory Module) slots are the connectors where your RAM goes in. One slot can take only one RAM. Your motherboard may have anywhere from one to eight DIMM Slots.
