Build for Gaming cafe, as cheap as possible (upto 7lakhs for 20 PC)

[Hrishi]

In the nearest Cyber Cafe , people mostly play CS1.6 , CSS , Fifa , NFSMW , Age Of Empires , Call of duty MW , etc.
AFAIK , graphic intense games aren't that popular due to lack of proper multiplayer environment and setup.

Also ,When you play multi-player , people don't tend to care too much on Graphics .

^^ I guess sometime people play just single players in Cyber cafe and they will be enjoying BF3 and other games over there.

The Most Single player campaign game played at Cyber Cafes are either GTA Vice City or any Arcade Based racing games like Mostwanted or any NFS alternate.

Regarding Games like BF3 & COD BOII, Cyber cafe owner need to have good inputs devices other than cheap 200 bucks logitech KB & mice. Also a decent headphone would be a good choice.

@OP : IMO, visit few Cyber cafes near around. List down the games, that often played there. Now build your configs & decide on the input devices based on such information, rather than pouring money.

About steam: op can go two ways
1. contact steam support & get cybercafe type licence
2. or create multiple accounts & put copies of steam games in those (for n pcs you need n accounts & you need n no of licences for each game)

FX4300 will suffice with 4GB RAM

Or people whoever plays these steam based games, should have those games owned in their account. So they can login & play without any problem.

I think they will. If someone is visiting a gaming cyber-cafe, then he either owns a low-end PC, or doesn't know much about games. In that case, all games are free-to-play for him .

people usually play on LAN.. they come in a group of 5-8 and play together and leave together. It is due to this that they want to make atleast 20 PCs .. If a group of 5 boys come, and there are only 2 seats free, all 5 will leave. Since gamers stay 4-5 hours on a stretch (Rs100) they dont find a point in waiting.
As for Steam account and all, the owner he can buy games on our behalf... He even does microtransactions for fb games and Free MMOS. I dont think STEAM account is needed for LAN play. There are many elcheapo cyber cafes here which run COD MW on LAN, i am sure they dont have steam account.
