I want to setup a gaming PC for younger brother. I don't want to spend too much on this because anyway I am not staying at home and he doesn't play that much. Still I may upgrade this PC after a year or so because I'll be back at home around that time. So I think parts such as proc and mobo should be good. I can add a good graphics card later. Budget is tight 30k including monitor.
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:
FIFA 13 and some recent games at lowest settings(don't want to spend on GPU right now. I'll upgrade later).
HD movies. And less intensive day to day stuffs.

9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: It'll be done by an assembler as I'm out of station. In fact I've to ask him about availability of components that you're going to suggest me.
