Hey guys I am upgrading my RIG and wanna buy it on Thursday, I finalized some products but you guys need to polish it.
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: High Graphic Gaming (not much), HD Movies and a lot of Surfing.
2. Are you open to alternate ideas/products giving similar better performance but offering more VFM/ sellers? If not- why?
A: Don't know
3. What is your MAX budget?
A: 35-40 K.
4. Planning to overclock?
A: NEVER
5. Which OS are you planning to use?
A: Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7 Ultimate
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?
A: 1680*1050, I have a Dell 22''
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: Assembler, have built but don't wanna do this time.
10. When are you planning to buy the system?
A: Within 72 hours.
11. Are you one of the types looking out for "future proof" configurations?
A: I wanna buy this in a prospect of 3-4 years.
12. Are there going to be any components that you don't want to include in this new rig? If yes, do mention.
A: Graphics Card, DVD-RW, Monitor, KB, Mice
13. Which city do you live in and are you open to buying from shops from other city/states?
A: Kolkata
14. Mention any other points if deemed necessary
A: NONE.
Guys I already decided these things,
CPU- Intel Core i7 950
Mother Board- Gigabyte or Asus? (Please mention the model)
RAM- Corsair 4 GB @ 1333 MHz, Is there faster RAM available than 1333? and What about G-Skill?
PSU- Corsair 650 W, but what series VX or newly launched GS? Please input.
Cabinet- Cooler Master Elite 430, if I have extra money then a better one.
HDD- Wanna buy a 500GB WD Black as I already have a Seagate 500 GB and Hitachi 160 GB.
and Please also suggest a good Cooling Item.
Now here is the main thing,
I am not upgrading my Graphic Card atm, but I will change it within 6-7 months. What I will buy? Maybe a GTX 470 or maybe GTX 570/580, depends on my pocket but it should be Nvidia one, NOT Ati/AMD. So will a Corsair 650W PSU be enough to handle that card?. One more thing, I might have all the 3 Hard Disk running (at least two), so consider that too. I will also upgrade my Monitor in a year, this time it will be a Full HD Dell monitor.
So guys Please start help me by your valuable suggestions, don't have much time.
