Planning to upgrade a old sempron 2500+ km800 based rig used at home.(Telling for reference the requirement are not huge and hence the budget)
1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et cetera.')
Ans: No hefty games. Unreal tournament sometimes. office applications, pro e(cad software), autocad 2004 etc.
2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: 10k
3. Planning to overclock?
Ans:no
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans:windows 7 mostly.. all app in use have support for win7
5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: have an old IDE one - reuse or might just get a new SATA - no limitation have an external one.
6. Do you want to buy a monitor? If yes, please mention which screen size and resolution do you want. If you already have a monitor and want to reuse it, again mention the size and resolution of monitor you have.
Ans:No
7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans:hdd, dvd rom, keyboard, mouse, monitor
8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: 1months time max
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans:assembler mostly
10. Where do you live? Are you buying locally? Are you open to buying stuff from online shops if you don't get locally?
Ans: online is ok.
11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans:
How does a amd athlon x2 with amd 880 looks.
or intel 630 pentium with any h61 mobo.
Both are budget options and hence looking. I sincerely believe its better to spend money on ssd rather than on number crunching cpu unnecessarily.
will upgrade to ssd in future for this rig.
