Dear friends,
Would request your suggestion to help me choose a PC config, with the answers given below. I can go for either AMD (if consumes less power, 65 W or below) or Intel. But this PC should not become obsolete in next 5 yrs. Thanks
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: Mainly word processing, browsing, 1080P full HD movie viewing. Processor should use less power, 65W or lower. Need 4 GB RAM 1600 Mhz minimum, USB 3.0, HDMI port on MoBo, Hard disk SATA II(if possible), Wi-fi enabled, and if possible should support 5.1 channel audio.

Ans: Rs 20,000

Ans: No. basic user
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: Win 7, however would like to future proof myself for Win8
5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: 1 TB
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: Will use existing monitor

Ans: monitor, Keyboard, mouse, speaker, DVD drive
