AMD Ryzen 3 3200G:
The Ryzen 3 3200g is a quad-core processor(4 cores, 4 threads) providing decent performance under the price tag of 7,999 rupees.
Main reason behind selecting this CPU is that it comes at a good price and the integrated GPU delivers solid performance.
Over the years, this CPU has been the favourite of many budget builders due to the on-board vega 8 graphics.
The CPU base clock is 3.6 Ghz, and boost clock is 4 Ghz with 6 MB cache, and power draw of 65 watts.
It supports the DDR4 system memory of 2933 MHz, and supports dual channel as well.

XPG Gammix D30 8GB:
Since we have our budget set to 20000, we have selected the XPG Gammix D30 8 Gb single ram that runs on 3200 Mhz.
We have chosen the 3200 Mhz ram stick, but it will run on 2933 Mhz as our cpu supports up to this limit.
During our research we found that there was no difference in price between the 3000 Mhz ram and this 3200 Mhz ram.
Therefore, we picked the 3200 Mhz ram, as it is faster and it will be relevant in the future upgrades as well.
Important Note: Due to the limited budget, we have opted for a single ram stick. In future we recommend that you add another ram stick to the build for dual channel to boost the performance.
WD Green SATA 480GB:
In many similar PC builds, you might have seen most of youtubers and bloggers recommending 120 gb/240 gb SSD.
In our pc build, we have found a 480 GB Sata SSD that will provide you ample space for your games and operating system.
With this pc, you might be able to play all the modern AAA titles, but you will be able to enjoy games such as GTA V, CS:G0, Far Cry 3, etc.

Ant Esports Vs400L:
After adding up all our pc components in the pc part picker, our power consumption comes out to be 150 watts. Although we do not recommend that you buy a 150 or 200 watts power supply because of two reasons:

Within our budget of 20000, the perfect power supply with a reliable history is the Ant Esports vs400L.
It is a 400 watts non modular power supply with more than 2000 reviews on amazon. For this we have done some extra research from the local pc markets. Overall, this is a reliable power supply for our build.
