Best gaming PC under Rs 75000 in February 2026

Stepping into the ₹80,000 bracket allows for a significant leap in architectural longevity, but it doesn’t come without its hurdles in the current market. As we saw in our previous build, the global “AI surge” continues to hit the PC enthusiast’s wallet where it hurts most: memory and storage. Because of the massive demand for server-grade components, RAM and storage price hikes due to AI cause us to spend a big chunk of our budget there, leaving us to find clever ways to maximize the remaining funds for pure gaming performance.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X

The star of this build is the Ryzen 5 7600X. Moving to the AM5 platform is a game-changer, offering the latest “Zen 4” architecture. With 6 cores and a blistering boost clock of 5.3GHz, this CPU ensures that you aren’t just building for today’s games, but for the next several years of software evolution. It is one of the most efficient and powerful gaming processors in this price segment.

GPU: INNO3D GeForce RTX 3050 Twin X2

For the graphics department, we’ve selected the INNO3D RTX 3050. While the market for GPUs is tight, the 3050 remains a solid entry into the RTX ecosystem. You get access to DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling), which is essential for boosting frame rates in demanding titles, and Ray Tracing for improved lighting effects. It handles 1080p gaming with ease, providing a smooth experience across both competitive and cinematic titles.

Motherboard: Gigabyte B650M H

To support our AM5 processor, we’ve opted for the Gigabyte B650M H. This board is a reliable, budget-friendly entry into the latest chipset. It provides the necessary PCIe 4.0 support for your GPU and SSD, ensuring that your high-speed components aren’t being held back by bandwidth limitations. It’s a pragmatic choice that keeps the total build cost under the ₹80,000 ceiling.

RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2x8GB) 3200MHz

Memory pricing remains the “elephant in the room” for 2026. At ₹12,500, we are paying a premium for 16GB of DDR4 memory. However, G.SKILL’s Ripjaws V series is legendary for its stability and “plug-and-play” compatibility. The 3200MHz speed ensures that the system remains snappy, allowing you to multitask between gaming, streaming, and chrome tabs without a hitch.

SSD: EVM 1TB M.2 SATA SSD

Storage costs have mirrored the rise in RAM prices, but we’ve managed to secure a full 1TB of space with the EVM M.2 drive. Having a terabyte of space is a luxury that becomes a necessity once you install a few AAA titles like GTA 6 or Call of Duty. While it uses the SATA interface, it still offers vastly superior speeds compared to old-school hard drives, ensuring your system boots in seconds.

Power Supply: Cooler Master MWE 450 Bronze V2

The Cooler Master MWE 450 Bronze is the silent workhorse of this rig. It’s a reliable 80 Plus Bronze certified PSU that provides clean, consistent power to your components. 450W is the perfect “right-sized” capacity for this specific CPU and GPU combo, offering high efficiency without the extra cost of unneeded wattage.

Case: ZEBRONICS ZIUM Mid-Tower Gaming Cabinet

Everything is housed in the Zebronics Zium, a mid-tower cabinet that punches well above its weight class in terms of looks. Its compact footprint makes it a great fit for any desk setup, while the side panel allows you to show off the internal hardware you’ve worked hard to assemble.

Performance Expectations

This is a high-tier 1080p gaming machine designed for longevity.

• eSports Titles: You can expect 200+ FPS in games like Valorant and CS2, making it perfect for pairing with a 144Hz or 240Hz monitor.
• AAA Titles: On High settings, you’ll comfortably hit 60–80 FPS in most modern games. In heavier titles, enabling DLSS will easily push those numbers into the triple digits.
• Future-Proofing: Because you are on the AM5 platform, you are ready for future CPU upgrades without needing to swap your motherboard.

Upgrade Path

1. Transition to DDR5: While this build uses DDR4 to save costs, the B650 platform is ready for DDR5 memory whenever prices eventually stabilize.
2. GPU Step-up: The 7600X is powerful enough to support cards like the RTX 4070 or even the newer 50-series cards later down the line.
3. NVMe Storage: Adding a dedicated NVMe Gen4 drive in the future would provide even faster data transfer speeds for professional video editing or heavy workloads.
