1. What is the purpose of the computer? (Note: If you are planning to say multimedia, you will have to be more specific as all types of systems are capable of doing that)
A:Mainly for watching Movies , but also play the occasionsal game at low/moderate Ssettings.
2. Are you open to alternate ideas/products giving similar better performance but offering more VFM/ sellers? If not- why?
A: Yes of course.
3. What is your MAX budget?
A: Rs.50,000
4. Planning to overclock?
A:No never.
5. Which OS are you planning to use?
A: Windows 7 64Bit
6. How much hard drive space is needed?
A: 2 TB Minimum and plan to increase very soon.
7. What resolution will the screen run at & whats the size of the screen you want?
A: 24" 1080p ,but may consider 22" because 22" is quite cheaper than 24".
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)
A: 9
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
A: Yes i have but just once so i will get it done by an assembler
10. When are you planning to buy the system?
A: Around New Year.
11. Are you one of the types looking out for "future proof" configurations?
A: Atleast the Non Upgradable Parts like Processor/Mobo should be somewhat future proof.
12. Are there going to be any components that you don't want to include in this new rig? If yes, do mention.
A: Not really.
13. Which city do you live in and are you open to buying from shops from other city/states?
A: Kolkata , and yes I will buy from Chadni Chowk.
14. Mention any other points if deemed necessary
A: My PC will be running 24x7 , and Hard Disk will be in constant use , so my system should not have high heat producing components , i would rather but moderate config so that it can run all the tim without problem.
And by ideal i do not mean the most Eco Friendly Low Power Low Config machine. I need something which can atleast handle games at moderate/Low Settings.
The PC should have such components which generate really less heat , will be good enough for running 24x7 for days/months at a stretch , it won't be CPU Intensive all the time , but the Hard Disk will be in use all the time [ I share my stuff on our College Internal LAN DC++ Network ] , so that will be something to be extra careful while picking.
My Budget is around 50k, my priorities are , Cool machine suited for running long hours , Good Video watching , moderate/low gaming [ just the regular FIFA and Counter Strike , nothing intensive ].
Here's what i listed would be suitable to my needs and within my budget
Edit : 08.12.10 - The list is almost final , just not sure about the Graphics Card.
