1. What is the purpose of the computer?
I want to build a new computer to run intense GSN3 simulations(cisco router simulating software) and also run VMware( virtual machine software), possibly concurently.
I do heavy multitasking
2. Are you open to alternate ideas/products giving similar better performance but offering more VFM/ sellers? If not- why?
YES
3. What is your MAX budget?
25K
4. Planning to overclock?
NO
5. Which OS are you planning to use?
ubuntu 64bit & windows 7 64bit
6. How much hard drive space is needed?
500Gb
7. What resolution will the screen run at & whats the size of the screen you want? If you already want have one and want to use it, mention its resolution and size.
19inch
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)
6
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Assembler
10. When are you planning to buy the system?
This week
11. Are you one of the types looking out for "future proof" configurations?
To some extent
12. Are there going to be any components that you don't want to include in this new rig? If yes, do mention.
Monitor, keyboard & Mouse, speaker
13. Which city do you live in and are you open to buying from shops from other city/states?
Bangalore
14. Mention any other points if deemed necessary
I don't game. No desire to,
but would heavily use bells and whistles built in OS
COMPIZ FUSION under linux
AERO effects under windows 7
and I would watch HD movies
and would run the machine for long hours
so, should be reliable
and I need about 8 gig of ram,
So any hardware suggestions?
Thanks a bunch!
