Updated October 2026 with current Indian retail prices.
A new PC for ₹25,000? Only just, and only with the graphics built into the processor. Our Ryzen 3 3200G build with 8GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD comes to ₹25,180, ₹180 over; with a 256GB SSD it’s ₹23,250.
The builds
- Main build: Ryzen 3 3200G + 8GB, ₹25,180
- Under ₹25,000: same with a 256GB SSD, ₹23,250
- Stretch build: same with 16GB, ₹28,340
- Full setup with monitor: from ₹29,598

Looking for the best PC build under ₹25,000? RAM prices have jumped in 2026, and the Ryzen 5 5600G build this page recommended in April, at ₹24,900, can’t be bought for that any more. We rebuilt it on 24 Oct 2026 from parts you can actually order today, each read on Amazon.in with a delivery pincode set.
Every price below is for the tower only. A monitor, keyboard, mouse and Windows licence are extra; we price a full setup further down.

Can you build a gaming PC under ₹25,000 in 2026?
Here’s what happened to our April parts at the same store; two we couldn’t find at all:

RAM did the damage. The same G.Skill 16GB, bought as two 8GB sticks, costs nearly five times what our April page said, and the Ryzen 5 5600G has gone from Amazon.in altogether. So the new build cuts RAM to 8GB and picks an older processor.
Where the money goes

A quarter of the budget goes on the processor, because it’s also the graphics. RAM is close behind: at 2026 prices, two 4GB sticks cost nearly as much as the processor.
Processor: AMD Ryzen 3 3200G
This is the part that makes a ₹25,000 gaming PC possible at all. The Ryzen 3 3200G has Radeon Vega 8 graphics built in, so there’s no graphics card to buy, and AMD’s Wraith Stealth cooler comes in the box. At ₹6,299 with 10,116 ratings, shipped by Amazon, it’s also the cheapest well reviewed AM4 chip with built in graphics we found on 24 Oct 2026. We didn’t find the Ryzen 5 4600G or 5500GT on Amazon.in either.
Be clear about what it is: a 2019 chip with 4 cores and 4 threads. The Ryzen 5 5600G our April build used has 6 cores and 12 threads and stronger graphics, but we couldn’t find it new on Amazon.in, and its replacement, the Ryzen 5 5600GT, was only on Flipkart at ₹14,999. The 3200G is on Microsoft’s list of processors supported by Windows 11, and its listing gives DDR4 2933MHz as its memory speed. It also leaves a way up: Gigabyte lists Ryzen 5000 G series support for this board, so a chip such as the 5600GT should fit later; check the support list for the BIOS it needs and update with the 3200G still in.

Amazon price checked 27 Oct 202610,116 Amazon ratings
Motherboard: Gigabyte A520M K V2
₹5,235 on Amazon.in with 171 ratings. We picked it over cheaper boards for one reason: Gigabyte’s own support list names the Ryzen 3 3200G as supported from the board’s first BIOS, F1. That matters: some A520 boards only run the 3200G after a BIOS update.
The ASRock A520M HVS was ₹4,999, but ASRock lists the 3200G only from BIOS P3.40, so an older box may not start with it.

RAM: two 4GB sticks for 8GB
Two Crucial 4GB sticks cost ₹5,838 for 8GB, and that’s what keeps the total close to ₹25,000. Two sticks matter more than size on this chip: the Vega 8 graphics use your system RAM as video memory, and two sticks give them two channels of bandwidth instead of one.
8GB is tight in 2026: the built in graphics keep part of it, so Windows and the game get less. We picked these 2666MHz sticks, with 1,263 ratings, because the cheapest 8GB stick we found had 49% one star ratings.

Crucial 4GB DDR4 2666MHz: desktop RAM (buy 2)
Amazon price checked 27 Oct 20261,263 Amazon ratingsPrice is per stick
Stretch build: 16GB for ₹28,340
Swap the two 4GB sticks for two EVM 8GB sticks and the build comes to ₹28,340: ₹3,160 more and ₹3,340 over budget. This is the build we’d buy if you can stretch: 16GB is what most new games recommend, with plenty left after the graphics take their share.
Decide now, not later. The board has only two RAM slots, so going to 16GB later means replacing both 4GB sticks and wasting ₹5,838. If you’d rather spread the cost, one EVM 8GB 2666 stick at ₹4,449 brings the build to ₹23,791, and a second stick later makes 16GB; until then the graphics run on one channel, which is slower.

Storage: Geonix 512GB SATA SSD
₹4,480 for 512GB, a 2.5 inch SATA SSD shipped by Amazon. We went to 512GB because Windows 11 plus one or two big games fill a 256GB drive quickly; the 256GB version of the same drive was ₹2,550, if you need to save more.
Check one thing before you buy: the listing mixes sizes, and one of its bullet points mentions a 128GB drive. Make sure 512GB is the size selected on the page and in your cart. The 1,465 ratings, 3.7 stars on average, are shared across the sizes. For a better rated drive, the Consistent S6 512GB had 4.1 stars at ₹4,875, ₹395 more. SATA is slower than NVMe, but the board has a free M.2 slot, so you can add an NVMe drive later.

Power supply: Circle CG RAW Power 500W
₹1,829 for a 500W unit with 80 Plus White certification and active PFC. This build draws little power, so 500W is more than it needs today, but there’s room for a modest graphics card later. Don’t cut here to a no name supply: the cheapest 450W units we found were under ₹700 with no 80 Plus rating, and the power supply protects every other part.

Cabinet: Zebronics Zium
₹1,499 with 746 ratings, and the cheapest cabinet we’d use. It takes Micro ATX boards like this one, has bays for the SSD, and fits graphics cards up to 270mm and coolers up to 150mm.
Its ratings average 3.6 stars, so check the panels for damage when it arrives. The bigger catch is airflow: it ships with one 80mm fan at the back. That’s fine for a 65W processor with no graphics card. If you add a graphics card, add a front fan too.

Every budget near ₹25,000: what you get
If ₹25,000 is a guide, not a hard limit, here’s what each step buys:
| Budget | Build | RAM and storage | What changes |
|---|---|---|---|
| ₹23,250 | Main build, smaller SSD | 8GB, 256GB SSD | The best new build under ₹25,000 |
| ₹23,791 | One 8GB stick | 8GB in one stick, 512GB SSD | Easy to reach 16GB later, but slower graphics until then |
| ₹25,180 | Main build | 8GB, 512GB SSD | ₹180 over; the build we’d start from |
| ₹26,410 | 16GB, smaller SSD | 16GB, 256GB SSD | ₹1,410 over budget |
| ₹28,340 | Stretch build | 16GB, 512GB SSD | The build we’d buy |
| ₹34,662 | Our 40k build | 16GB, 512GB NVMe | Same processor, B450 board, 80 Plus Bronze power supply |
So no, you can’t build a new PC under ₹20,000 that we’d recommend in October 2026: the cheapest version of this build was ₹23,250. For a graphics card build, the next real step is our PC build under 60,000, with an RTX 3050.
Gaming PC under ₹25,000 with full setup: monitor, keyboard and mouse
A new full setup doesn’t fit ₹25,000 in October 2026. The cheapest one we’d buy comes to ₹29,598: the 256GB version of this build, a 100Hz monitor and a basic keyboard and mouse. Here are both, all read on Amazon.in on 27 Oct 2026:
| Part | Cheapest setup | Gaming setup |
|---|---|---|
| Monitor | Acer EK220Q E3, 21.5 inch, 100Hz, ₹5,999 | Acer EK240Y P6, 23.8 inch, 144Hz, ₹6,488 |
| Keyboard and mouse | Zebronics Judwaa 750 combo, ₹349 | Logitech G102 + Ant Esports MK3400 V3 Pro, ₹2,494 |
| Tower | Main build with 256GB SSD, ₹23,250 | Main build, ₹25,180 |
| Total | ₹29,598 | ₹34,162 |
Both monitors connect over HDMI, the one digital port the board has, and both come with an HDMI cable in the box. The Acer EK220Q runs at 100Hz and the EK240Y at up to 144Hz, though this PC only reaches high frame rates in light games. Add a Windows licence to either total. More options in our guides to the best monitor under 8,000, gaming mouse under 2,000 and gaming keyboard under 2,000.
Refurbished PC under ₹25,000: what Amazon actually sells
We also searched Amazon.in for refurbished PCs on 24 Oct 2026. We found no Amazon Renewed listings in this price range. What’s there is older Intel office PCs from third party sellers, several described as “Assembled” rather than refurbished, with the seller’s or assembler’s warranty. Two listings said their installed software was “Only Trial Version Software, Not Licensed”. A typical spread:
| What you get | Price | Seller or assembler warranty |
|---|---|---|
| Core i5 3470 (3rd gen), 8GB DDR3, 256GB SSD, sold as “Assembled” | ₹10,679 | 1 year, at a service centre or by courier at your cost |
| Lenovo M700 Tiny, Core i5 6500T (6th gen), 8GB, 256GB SSD, “Pre-Owned” | ₹16,999 | 1 month |
| Core i5 4570 (4th gen), 16GB DDR3, 256GB SSD, GT 730 card | ₹19,888 | 2 years |
| Core i7 4770 (4th gen), 16GB DDR3, 512GB SSD, a best seller in Tower PCs | ₹21,790 | 2 years on site |
| Our main build: Ryzen 3 3200G, all new parts, 8GB DDR4, 512GB SSD | ₹25,180 | Each part sold new |
The i7 gives you 16GB of RAM for less, a real point in its favour. The catches: these are old DDR3 platforms with little room to upgrade, the GT 730 is a card we’d avoid, and none of these Intel chips is on Microsoft’s list of processors supported by Windows 11, which starts at 8th gen. The 3200G is on that list. A few 8th and 9th gen Core i3 and i5 office PCs, which are on it, showed up at ₹21,999 to ₹25,999 with 8GB of RAM. If you buy refurbished, check the warranty terms and that Windows is a genuine licence.
What this PC can run
We haven’t measured frame rates on this build, so here’s what each game’s maker lists as its minimum, set against this PC: Vega 8 graphics and 8GB of RAM, or 16GB in the stretch build.

League of LegendsRAM OKRAM OK

Rocket LeagueRAM OKRAM OK
FortniteRAM tightRAM OK

Marvel RivalsRAM shortUnclear
The graphics borrow part of your RAM as video memory (AMD’s example for an 8GB system is 1GB or 2GB), which is why Counter Strike 2, Fortnite and Apex Legends are tight on 8GB. The newest big games also want a graphics card with its own memory, which no build at this price has.
Fortnite is the only game here whose maker names Vega 8 graphics as a minimum (Epic’s page as saved in January 2026; Epic’s site blocked our check). For older GTA V, Rockstar’s Steam page warns that integrated graphics may be incompatible, so we wouldn’t buy this PC for it.
What reviewers measured on the Ryzen 3 3200G
Three well known reviewers measured the 3200G’s built in graphics in 2019 and 2020. All used faster RAM than this build: TechSpot ran DDR4 3200, ComputerBase DDR4 2933 and Tom’s Hardware a 16GB DDR4 kit. Expect this build to score lower. Averages in frames per second:
| Game | Average | Settings | Reviewer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rocket League | 174 | 720p, low | TechSpot, 2019 |
| Fortnite | 114 | 720p, low | TechSpot, 2019 |
| Overwatch | 95.1 | 720p, medium | ComputerBase, 2019 |
| F1 2018 | 76.6 | 720p, high | ComputerBase, 2019 |
| Resident Evil 2 | 62.7 | 720p, medium | ComputerBase, 2019 |
| World of Tanks enCore | 73.6 | 1080p, low | Tom’s Hardware |
| Civilization VI | 53 | 1080p, low | Tom’s Hardware |
| Dota 2 | 45.8 | 1080p, best looking | Tom’s Hardware |
| Far Cry 5 | 25.6 | 1080p, normal | Tom’s Hardware |
The pattern: esports and older games run well at 720p, light games work at 1080p low, and Far Cry 5 drops to around 25 at 1080p. TechSpot’s Fortnite figure is from the 2019 version of the game. None of the three measured Valorant, Counter Strike 2 or GTA V on this chip, so we don’t quote numbers for them.
Why other lists show cheaper builds
Most lists and AI summaries we read on 24 Oct 2026 still quote 2025 prices. Here’s what they say against what the same parts cost when we checked:
| Part | What older lists quote | Price on 24 Oct 2026 | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8GB DDR4 stick | ₹2,000 to ₹3,000 | ₹2,919 for 4GB; ₹4,449 for a well rated 8GB | RAM prices rose sharply in 2026 |
| 16GB DDR4 (2 x 8GB) | ₹2,700 (a mid 2025 list) | ₹8,998 | More than three times the quoted price |
| Ryzen 5 5600G | About ₹10,000 | Not found on Amazon.in | The 5600GT was ₹14,999 on Flipkart |
| 256GB SSD | ₹1,500 to ₹2,500 | ₹2,575 | Just above the quoted range |
One more check for any build with no graphics card: open the processor’s spec page and make sure it lists built in graphics. Some chips have none, and a PC built around one shows nothing on screen.
Parts to avoid at this budget
These came up while we priced parts on 24 Oct 2026:
Putting it together: 8 checks
If you’re building it yourself, watch these steps:
- Fit the processor and cooler on the board outside the cabinet. The Wraith Stealth comes with thermal paste already on it, so don’t add more.
- Fill both RAM slots. Both sticks go in, so they run in dual channel. The graphics depend on it.
- Mount the power supply at the top. The Zebronics Zium mounts it there, not at the bottom.
- Plan the SSD cables. A SATA SSD needs a data cable to the board and a power cable from the power supply. Buy a SATA cable if the board box has none.
- Connect the front panel wires. Power switch, reset and lights follow the pin map in the board manual.
- Plug the monitor into the board. With no graphics card, the picture comes from the board’s HDMI port.
- Check the memory in the BIOS. Both sticks should show, 8GB in total (16GB for the stretch build). These Crucial sticks run at their rated 2666MHz; the 3200MHz EVM sticks in the stretch build run at up to 2933MHz, so check the speed shown. If you play Valorant, turn on TPM (AMD fTPM) and Secure Boot here too: Riot requires both on Windows 11.
- Install AMD’s graphics driver. After Windows, get the driver for Vega graphics from AMD’s site; Windows’ own driver is often older.

How we chose
On 24 Oct 2026 we searched Amazon.in and Flipkart for every part, then read each likely pick on Amazon.in with a delivery pincode set. We dropped listings with heavy one star ratings, no delivery date or a board that might not start with the processor. We read every price again on 27 Oct 2026. Specs come from AMD, Gigabyte, ASRock and Microsoft; game requirements from each game’s own page. We haven’t assembled this exact build; nothing here is a hands on review.
Decision time
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I build a gaming PC under 25000 in 2026?
Only just, and only with the graphics built into the processor. Our main build with a Ryzen 3 3200G and 8GB of RAM came in just over budget in late October 2026 with a 512GB SSD, and under it with a 256GB one, all from Amazon.in. It plays esports and older games, not new AAA games.
What is the best processor for a 25k PC build?
The Ryzen 3 3200G, because it has Radeon Vega 8 graphics built in and fits the budget. The Ryzen 5 5600G is better but we couldn’t find it new on Amazon.in, and the 5600GT costs more than half the budget on its own.
Can I build a PC for 20000 rupees?
Not one we’d recommend in October 2026. The cheapest version of this build, with a 256GB SSD, still came to just over 23 thousand; the budget table above has every step.
Can I build a PC under 30k?
Yes. Our stretch build with 16GB of RAM stays under 30 thousand, and it’s the version we’d buy. It’s the same build with two 8GB sticks in place of the two 4GB sticks.
Is 8GB RAM enough for gaming in 2026?
Only just. Counter Strike 2 lists 8GB as its minimum, and the built in graphics keep part of it for themselves. It works for lighter esports games if you close other apps. 16GB is the better buy if you can stretch.
Why not buy one 8GB stick now and add a second later?
You can, and it’s cheaper: the budget table above prices it. A second stick later makes 16GB with nothing wasted. The catch is speed until then: this processor’s graphics use system RAM, and one stick halves their memory bandwidth. Two 4GB sticks are faster today; one 8GB stick is the cheaper road to 16GB.
Can I play GTA 5 on this PC?
We wouldn’t buy it for GTA 5. GTA V Enhanced lists an entry graphics card with its own 4GB of memory as its minimum, and the older version’s Steam page warns that integrated graphics may be incompatible.
Can I add a graphics card to this PC later?
Yes. The board has a PCIe 3.0 x16 slot, the cabinet takes cards up to 270mm and the 500W power supply has room for a modest card. Check the card’s recommended power supply first, and plug your monitor into the card. Once a card is in, a cheaper Ryzen 5 chip without built in graphics also becomes a sensible processor upgrade.
Is it cheaper to build or buy a ready made PC at this budget?
Not clearly. Google’s AI summary showed two prebuilts with the same Ryzen 3 3200G priced close to this build, one slightly below it, but we couldn’t check their parts or warranty. If you buy one, check the RAM is two sticks, the storage is an SSD and the warranty terms are clear. Our refurbished section covers the older Intel PCs sold at this price.
Will RAM and PC prices come down?
We can’t say. RAM is the part that rose most in 2026, which is why this build has 8GB. We’ll update this page when prices move, so check the date at the top.
Is this PC good for college and office work?
Yes. Four cores and built in graphics handle Office, browsing, video calls and light coding comfortably. With 8GB, keep the number of browser tabs sensible; the 16GB stretch removes that limit.
Should I buy a used PC instead?
The older Intel PCs in our refurbished table give you 16GB of RAM for less, but on old platforms with seller or assembler warranties and processors that aren’t on Microsoft’s Windows 11 list; the 8th and 9th gen ones we saw cost about as much as this build. Adding a used graphics card to this build later is another route.
