₹90K is a budget gaming PC now? 💀
I'm planning a gaming PC in India and these are the current prices I'm getting:
MSI MAG Forge 130A — ₹3,800
Cooler Master MWE 650W Bronze — ₹5,500
B550 motherboard — ₹6,350
Ryzen 5 5600 — ₹13,000
16GB DDR4 (2×8GB) — ₹12,400
512GB NVMe — ₹7,550
Intel Arc B570 10GB — ₹31,500
Samsung 24" IPS — ₹8,800
Total: ₹88,900
And this is basically a budget mid-range 1080p build in 2026.
What makes it crazy is that ₹90K–₹1 lakh in 2024/25 could get you a much more powerful/high-end setup.
Are these prices actually justified because of the current RAM/SSD shortage and AI demand, or are Indian PC component prices simply getting ridiculous?
If you had ₹90K today, would you build a PC, buy a console, or just wait for prices to come down? And what GPU/build would you choose?
