If my calculations are right , it should be enough.
When OP said multi-tasking he didn't mention with which apps he will multitask.If he will open photoshop,dreamweaver while doing some folding at home, I think we will need something more powerful.If he means regular stuff like word with photoshop and multiple windows open(for browsing files) along with surfing the web and downloading , the i3 should be enough.

Re: need a new gaming pc including monitor
How about an AMD alternative -
AMD FX4100 - 6.6k AMD FX4100 Zambezi 3.6GHz
Biostar A880GZ - 3.4k Biostar A880GZ
Prices from smcinternational.in and flipkart. However, I'm not sure about the motherboard so do correct me if I'm wrong.
@OP
Basing on what I've googled -
You can choose the AMD alternative for better multitasking/CPU heavy processes if you're ready to sacrifice your gaming performance to some(however noticeable) extent, otherwise Intel (proccesor+mobo which GTX OC mentioned) is the way to go.
