1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run?
Ans: Pure number crunching. Gene decoding. Statistical modelling.
2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: Around 50K. Will finalize budget after talking to the person who wants this to be made.
3. Planning to overclock?
Ans: No.
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: Win7 x64 and/or Linux.
5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: >1TB
6. Do you want to buy a monitor? If yes, please mention which screen size and resolution do you want.
Ans: Yes. 22" 720p. Exclude monitor price from the above budget.
7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: Keyboard, Mouse, Soundboxes.
8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: in the next two months. Need loads of planning and fine tuning before going in.
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: Yes. Will assemble 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: Kolkata. Will try procuring from Chandni first and then move to online shops.
11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: These:
· System will run for extended periods of time. Proper cooling will be necessary.
· Possible use of XFire/SLI to speed up parallel computing tasks. As I said, LOTS of data needs to computed during gene decoding/statistical modelling.
· Not for gaming. Occasional movies, maybe.
· Multi-monitor not needed.
· UPS will be needed.
· Will update the above info from time to time.
