Right off the assembly line
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: I'm planning to use this PC as a home server. It will run day and night. Also, i'm planning to use it mainly for programming (will run VMs and do heavy database scripting)
2. Are you open to alternate ideas/products giving similar better performance but offering more VFM/ sellers? If not- why?
A: Yes, ofcourse
3. What is your MAX budget?
A: 30k
4. Planning to overclock?
A: Maybe
5. Which OS are you planning to use?
A: Ubuntu (Linux)
6. How much hard drive space is needed?
A: 1 TB
7. What resolution will the screen run at & whats the size of the screen you want? If you already want have one and want to use it, mention its resolution and size.
A: I want atmost 20 inches screen with highest possible resolution
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: 5
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
A: Assembler
10. When are you planning to buy the system?
A: Within a week or two
11. Are you one of the types looking out for "future proof" configurations?
A: Yes
12. Are there going to be any components that you don't want to include in this new rig? If yes, do mention.
A: N.A.
13. Which city do you live in and are you open to buying from shops from other city/states?
A: New Delhi, will buy most probably from wazirpur market (delhi)
I am confused between AMD and intel. Never used an AMD before. But it offers 6 cores. Is 6 core (with low clock rate) better than 4 core (with high clock rate) ? Also intel provides hyperthreading, is it equivalent to having extra real cores ?

) Also AM3+ motherboards are costly and there is no BD CPU out there yet...
