Hi guys, I asked one of my computer guys to assemble a computer for me, as I do not know much about hardware (im mostly in software). This is what he gave me
-Pentium IV Dual Core 3.0 GHz + 915 Dual Core Compatible Intel Motherboard - Rs 16,000
- 1 GB DDR II RAM - Rs 5,000
- 120 GB SATA HDD - Rs 4,000
- DVD Writer - Rs 2,000
- 128 MB AGP Graphic Card - Rs 2,500
- 17" TFT Monitor - Rs 12,000
Total Rs 41,500 approx
Now, the budget is just about right for me. However, I wanted to know if its possible to have a better configuration for the same budget. I was think of Core 2 Duo, but I am not sure what exactly the difference is between Dual Core and Core 2 Duo? Also, is 16,000 is bit too high? Could you guys tell me what exactly the mobo and processor I should go for?
Also, I was hoping for atleast 160 GB Hard drive, and a slightly better Graphic Card. I wont mind going for 15 " TFT instead of 17 " to save a couple of thousand.
Can anyone tell me what exactly I should go for, and if this upgrade is ok? Or something that could be better within the budget.
Thanks
