If it is a "genuinely imported product with proper GST bill" then price difference between same brand product won't be more than 10% for shops in same city/locality. It is clear that you have no background knowledge about pc parts so I suggest you to create a new thread in pc configuration section by filling this questionnaire first:
Asking for new PC help? ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS FIRST
Well, as I said, its not of the same brand, but its not no brand local stuff either.
So well what I was asking was if I am restricting myself to the named brands Gigabyte, MSI, Corsair etc etc. Then these are all decent brands. But is the price difference between so drastic as to warrant a 20k cut? I've added a link to an excel and if anyone is interested he/she can give me a sense if the prices from Right Solutions are plausible, or areas where they might be trying to go for sub par stuff.
Even I know that the difference shouldn't be more than 10%. Hence the question, is there something that I am missing. Or are such differences common. And I was also seeking feedback about the particular store if anyone else has dealt with them before and how was their experience.
And stop being condescending about this. The questions that you linked to me has no bearing on the question I am asking. I am asking for someone knowledgeable about prices to tell me if the prices I am being quoted are realistic, while the questionnaire asks me stuff about why I am buying a computer. And many of the questions are getting answered on its own with my explanations so far.
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: I don't need to answer this because I don't need your help on the config, I already told you the config.
2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: Budget is not an issue here, is the quoted price realistic? Is the issue here.
3. Planning to overclock?
Ans: I know that Intels have K models for overclocking and for AMD all the processors are geared for overclocking. I know that in overclocking operations you need a better cooler since heat builds up at higher performance. But since I've not mentioned an external cooler in my build it'd be safe to assume I am not overclocking it.
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: Not relevant to the question at hand.
5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: Explained in the config.
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: Yes at Rs. 6500-7000 as I mentioned. Judging by the budget it is obvious that it wont be a 4k, but it'll be an HD 22" (which I also mentioned incidentally) 1920*1080 full HD. So if you had any idea about monitors you'd have guessed this.
7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: I have clearly mentioned what I want to buy.
8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: Yes.
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: I have built a desktop before but that was 11 years ago so I am not up-to-date with current prices.
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: Mumbai, and yeah locally from Lamington road.
11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: Nope.
So yeah, all these basic questions were already there in the thread. And although you are a supermod and all, had you been a bit more helpful and spent more time trying to understand the issue instead of trying to find an opportunity to show me down, it would've been appreciated.
