Uhu, Not Gonna Happen!
Hi Guys,
I have gone through other similar threads in this section which mentioned PC for 12K and 18K but they didn't help as the guy with 12K budget finally purchased config for 24K and the other thread did not have whole configuration. So my friend is looking for this:
Anyways it goes like this:
1. What is the purpose of the computer? (Note: If you are planning to say multimedia, you will have to be more specific as all types of systems are capable of doing that)
A: Basic PC. For giving it as a playtoy to very young kid. No gaming, no heavy graphic usage. Will watch movies occasionally. Internet Surfing mostly, no downloading.
2. Are you open to alternate ideas/products giving similar better performance but offering more VFM/ sellers? If not- why?
A: Yes, any configuration will do. No strings attached.
3. What is your MAX budget?
A: Rs. 15,000
4. Planning to overclock?
A: Nope - my friend is not too technical. My support is also limited to getting the config
5. Which OS are you planning to use?
A: Windows XP (could be upgraded to Win7 too)
6. How much hard drive space is needed?
A: 500GB will suffice.
7. What resolution will the screen run at & whats the size of the screen you want?
A: The lowest we can get, no issues. 14-15"
8. How would you rate your hardware knowledge from the count of 1-10? (1 being the lowest, 5 being you are somewhat in sync with the current performers and 10 being the highest)
A: 7
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
A: I have assembled mine and few others'
10. When are you planning to buy the system?
A: First week next month
11. Are you one of the types looking out for "future proof" configurations?
A: No, if it serves 2-3 years, it is good
12. Are there going to be any components that you don't want to include in this new rig? If yes, do mention.
A: He needs a complete PC but as it is for basic purpose only I do not think he is going to need a graphics card, no TV tuner.
13. Which city do you live in and are you open to buying from shops from other city/states?
A: Bangalore
14. Mention any other points if deemed necessary
A: None, covered every point above I guess.
