A: 7 but I can get hardware technical support from my work colleges (I work in outsourcing firm)
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?

13. Which city do you live in and are you open to buying from shops from other city/states?
A: Mumbai, I could travel to ahmedabad too.
14. Mention any other points if deemed necessary
A:
Current Planned build
mini-ITX intel/asus h77 chipset motherboard 9000Rs?
core i7 3770k /i5 3570k processor 21500/15000Rs?
Seagate Barracuda 2/3/4TB (2 or more) year warranty. will go for most cost effective one. 6500/9000/....?
RAM DDR3-1600 8GB*2 kit price . If prices are unreasonably high, will go for 4GB *2. 6500Rs?
GPU HD7850 . If better card with good price offer is available, will go for higher. 17000Rs?
PSU 650W 5000Rs?
totalling above will be 60k plus Rs without case,coolers and monitors.
I haven`t decided which case I would use. I have little knowledge on ITX cases. I personally preferred silverstone tek cases but their prices are ridiculously sky high.
My price information above are collected after one visit to lamington road. They might not be the best offers since I can`t negotiate price (I do not speak hindi/marathi and I am originally bad at negotiating). I am trying to trim the cost in all means. If prices in nearby states are more reasonable, I might very well be vistiing there.
Your kind recommendations and advices will be well appreciated.
