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: My work involves everything, from compiling heaviest of source codes (that run into GBs) to rendering aftereffect videos, editing in premier pro, autocad, 3DS Max designs creation and image editing using every damn software possible. Gaming comes a good second, but work comes first for my requirement of this PC.
2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: 1L
3. Planning to overclock?
Ans: Yes
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: Win 7/10
5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: 2TB (SSD+7200RPM Combo)
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: 24" Dell Ultrasharp (retailing for 30K currently) or similar model
7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: None
8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: In a month
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: Yes. Will assemble it myself
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: Delhi. Yes
11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: My last system overhaul was in 2009 (didn't spent much back then though). That thing worked flawlessly so far until recently, the OS updates began taking toll on its performance and speed. Even a single command in a puny software like dreamweaver, leaves it whimpering now, let alone handling huge softwares. Now upgrading with minimum 5 years (max 10 years) in mind for not looking at overhauling system again.
