This is the Best Price i am getting right now, ( converted from my currency with current exchange rate )

Where are you buying from? Prices fluctuate between online stores.

$260 for the 3570K seems crazy. If you're not going to overclock it, check out the 3570 or the 3470. If you are going to overclock, disregard.

Yeah...you can get that i5 for 215 here.

I assume from his post that he doesn't live in the US.

I live in India and as i said, the prices are converted from current exchange rate, yeah newegg isn't available here

EDIT

yes i will be over colocking it and i do need a Z77 chipset as i might add nvidia card later on

You might want to add a dedicated graphics card like the GTX660Ti, integrated graphics won't make it into games. Also, 450W seems a bit low for your system, that won't be futureproof imo.

Asrock Z77 pro 3 can be had for 60 in the states so that would make that way cheaper than that motherboard you picked above. I have the Z77pro 3 and it's really nice for the price. I use it with a 3570K as well.
