Colossus of Stars
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: These are the games I already own: Watch Dogs, Arkham Origins, Tomb Raider, Sleeping Dogs, Battlefield 4, ARMA 3, Metro Last Light and planning to buy upcoming GTA 5, Arkham Knight and I am also thinking of setting up a Home-Studio in near future(by the end of the year, perhaps) for my band so that we can finally start creating stuff rather than making covers so I'll also be running Studio recording software like Nuendo/Cubase.
2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: Right now, No bar.[Upper Limit is 15L]
3. Planning to overclock?
Ans: I dont think I'll need to. But might overclock to get the best benchmarks possible!
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: Win 8.1 Pro(64-bit)(Already bought)
5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: Atleast 4Tb(Atleast 2Tb should be SSD)
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: 2x4K Monitors planned. Already have Sony KD-84X9000 TV as a Movie screen. These are not included in the budget limit so go all out
7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components youve already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: Already have Mad Catz R.A.T. 9 and Razer BlackWidow so no WIRED mouse and Keyboard
8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: Before September 2014
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: Have built 9 PCs before for family and Friends
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: Chandigarh Tri-City. Open to Online shopping
11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: I also need a good Wireless Headset, wireless keyboard and Mouse for whenever I play games/watch movies on TV so please include that too. And for people concerned about wasting my money: I do appreciate your concern but I have been dreaming of this rig for the past 7-8 years. I have planned my finances, my expenditure and even my new apartment specifically for this purpose. I finally have the means for fulfilling this so please don't tell me about wasting my money. If you want, you can suggest me the all-out, future-proof rig with the best VFM. That would help me more. Thanks
---Update---
As per the suggestions recieved I have planned to wait for the X99 Chipset along with DDR4 and that 8-Core i7 which should push the date to December 2014 atleast. But in the meanwhile just for the sake of approximation what do you think shall be the configuration for such a killer rig?
