Hi all,
I'm building a gaming PC for the 1st time so i need some urgent help!
1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Generic answers will not work. Be exact and avoid the word 'et cetera.')
Ans: Gaming, movies (want to run all latest games like Shogun 2 , BF3 at ultra settings 1080p )
2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: 50-55k
3. Planning to overclock?
Ans:Yes, but my 1st tym doing it....
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans:win7 64bit
5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans:>1TB , but with current HDD prices anything is fine for some time.
6. Do you want to buy a monitor? If yes, please mention which screen size and resolution do you want. If you already have a monitor and want to reuse it, again mention the size and resolution of monitor you have.
Ans:Yes, preferbly around 23' 1920x1080
7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans:have Razer KB,mouse, headphones, speakers
I can get the i5-2500k for around 9k for a few days only.....
8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans:as soon as possible
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans:No, But i want to build it myself
10. Where do you live? Are you buying locally? Are you open to buying stuff from online shops if you don't get locally?
Ans: In delhi, Yes from Nehru Place, and a local contact my father has, and no online is almost the last resort.
11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans:I would very much like SLi/crossfire enabled mobo for future expansion.
Also i like the Z68 platform and would like it if a good one is possible ( plan to buy an SSd in 4-5 months if not possible now ).
Almost love the i5-2500k and the GTX 570 , if 7950 is out of budget )
Also, i am willing to consider Amd cpu/mobs if they do not affect my gaming performance and allow me to get sli/crossfire for future...
Thanks in advance
