Hello Everyone! Before answering the Questionnaire below, I need a Configuration (Motherboard, Processor, GPU and CPU Cooler) in which my existing components would work perfectly:
1.) Corsair Vengeance 12GB (3x4GB) Triple Channel RAM
2.) MSi GTX 580 Twin Frozr-ii (1.5GB) GPU (if this won't work then I am ready to invest in this as well).
3.) Tagan 1100W PSU (6pin+8pin connector for GPU).
1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run?
Ans: High-end gaming of all the latest games at approx. 30-40fps with all Basic and Advanced Settings set to High (if not Ultra/Insane).
2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: Budget is only for Processor+Mobo+GPU(only if my existing GPU wont work on the new mobo)+CPU Cooler and will be around Rs.70K (+/- Rs.10K)
3. Planning to overclock?
Ans: Not at all.
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: Currently i was on Win 7 Ultimate Edition (as all games worked perfectly), I wouldn't mind switching to Win10 (provided all my games work), If there are any pros/cons, I will be happy to go for a dual boot OS (Win 7 Ultimate and Win10)
5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: I will use my existing WD 2x1TB HDDs (But i would prefer an SSD just for the Dual boot OS setup) i.e. a 120/128GB SSD which is fast (as this will be my 1st time loading an OS from the SSD).
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: I will re-use my 23" Samsung monitor which has a full HD Resolution (1920 x 1080).
7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: I wont buy: PSU (already have 1100W), Monitor, Keyboard, RAM, Mouse, Cabinet (CM690)
8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: within a week's time (1st-2nd week of May, 2016)
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: I will do 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: I live in Mumbai so Lamington Road will the preferred option (I have also purchased online stuff from Golccha IT before, so, any would do).
11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: nothing as such that I have in mind. If i remember, will surely add it.
