Need Cofiguration For Cyber Cafe

But you must realise that even if the diff. is 200 rs. if you buy 10 it is 2k which is not too bad for saving....

Still a 250GB HDD is a better option.
And yes dont get those ODDs. Get only one ext. DVD-RW for any type of use. That will come handy when any user wants to read some of his/her data from a CD/DVD.

about Smps ??

 

[tkin]

actually titan would be a very nice gpu but i doubt about it's cost (afraid it will cost too much)..... also most probably many cards wont be made as gtx 780 comes into play later this year...

7950/7970 should do quite well....

Btw titan releases this feb 18 afaik...

Paper launch

 

[draco21]

Opps i actually posted in wrong thread....

sorry ppl...

about spms. generic would do but if you want nice one, antec bp300 or crosair cx430 according to your budget...

Nope, external odds are very fragile, if he uses it too much it will get borked, rather get one or two ODDS in one master machine, and then remotely burn the user files, a lot of cyber cafe's do that.

Yeah, also note, buy Asus drives, they come with one year warranty are the most reliable drives I had ever used, they will bork in a year or so if you use them too much, like all other drives, just replace them after a year, 1k per drive, for two drives that comes to about 100/- per month, doable, do not buy LG drives ever.

Second, charge for data download, here the first 25MB data download is free(softwares only, browsing is not counted), then they charge extra.

Zebronics Keyboard & Mouse @ 0.35K
Intex/Frontec/Tech-COM 600VA UPS @ 1.4K


= 17550 without cabinet....

i dont understand one thing whenever i go to any dealer in my city he /she says "aap pentium 4 le lo mast chalega"......some of them dont even know that corsair manufacture smps/psu "corsair ka psu ???? bhaiya corsair ka ram aata hai "..when i asked one of them about 1200 w smps "bhaiya 1200 watt ?? itne me to c.p.u jal ke rakh ho jayga"
..."aap ek kam karo ..amd ka 7970 wala 2gb ka graphic card lagao aur pentium 4 lelo..mast chalega"...

 

[tkin]

^^ Perfect, now keep these and in future after a few years when you had recovered the cost or have a steady income stream you may put a low end GPU in a few of them like 6450 etc and charge 30/- per hour for gaming, only if its popular at your place, here there is a steady stream of kids lining up to play CS or GTA in the cyber cafes.

WTF charging for data downloads???

here i would go to cafe download songs and videos and all but if ppl started charging, guess no more songs for me....

just telling about my area...

there are seperate gaming and browsing pc's . On gaming pc's u can't browse net and on browsing pc's no games....

gaming pc's have games like ninja blade, prototype,prototype 2 ,ac revelations, cs source,fifa 13 and likes.... config. is c2d processor with 9600 or 9800 gpu. charges rs.10 per hour...

browsing pc's have nothing in hardware just a c2d processor. They contain softwares like c and photoshop.... charges rs. 15 per hr. 10 for half....



backup is provided by a single inverter(yes there is one) so it means buisness even on total power cut days(frequent around here esp. during summer). Provides other facilities like color printing, lamination,spiral binding,xerox etc.Also sells games and anti virus....

so my point is dont just keep computers in your cafe... Load up some softwares and provide other services to make real profit.Add a good quality printer with low cost per page value, add a xerox machine if there is demand for xerox in your area,add a cold drink refrigarator in your cafe,add services like booking railway tickets and mobile recharging,believe me you wont regret such an investment.

anyways it is just a piece of free advice take it or leave it.....

 

[Myth]

^^
Looks like someone spends a lot of time in cafes


Wouldnt it be cheaper to purchase a single large ups for all systems instead of purchasing one for each individually ?

 

[saswat23]

Or even a single UPS can power up two PCs.
You just need 5-6 mins to just shut down a PC. So, a single UPS should be enough for two PCs.

GIGABYTE GA-E350N (Rs 4000 for cpu and board)
AMD E-Series E-350 - EME350GBB22GT
18w power cunsumption so it will save your electricity bill

But it is very weak for Processing and if you open couple of Tabs in Firefox 19 with lots of heavy Contents, it will slow down.

AnandTech - Bench - CPU

not as slow as it looks as many cafe owners use slower clocked p4
though you can't game on it but still enough for google chrome's multiple tabs
or other solutions like this can do (onboard cpu)
it will save energy, less cooling required, itx size so less space required, any generic psu can handle it very easily, one 1k ups can handle 10 machines like this for long enough etc............
