Friends

Thank you all for helping me for my first mid range PC buying, my experience was too good here.

Now I want your same support for another budget home PC for my niece. Note that the PC will be used in a rural area so the components has to be rough-n-tough which can work on extreme village/environments.

Also it should be an Intel based PC and the cost can be as low as possible :)

Thank you for the suggestion. But I surprise why the Intel pentium haswell processors (pentium g3220) are not available in India yet. When I contacted Intel India at their FB page they said we have already launched it. But we can not find them in ANY store !!! Any idea regarding this?

When providing a suggestion, be exact and avoid vague comments. Which i3? There are three generation chips available each having 3-4 models. If OP simply goes to buy that board and ends up getting a 4th gen i3, it will be not be compatible.
