Uhu, Not Gonna Happen!
Hi Folks,
I have read similar threads and buying advice thread by Jas but was still confused so creating a new thread to get help from you guys, here goes the questionnaire:
1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Generic answers will not work. Be exact and avoid the word 'et cetera.')
Ans: Mainly a CPU based on 64bit architecture for SharePoint2010 related development tasks. I used to be a gamer but don't find time now. It would be good I could play NFS once a while but that's not a need.
2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: I am expecting a config under 20K (can extend to 25K max). If I can't play games within that, no worries. Just want to fulfill my main purpose.
3. Planning to overclock?
Ans: Depends (do not include expensive MB/Processor for overclocking)
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: Win7 64bit, Win Server 2008 R2
5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: I have around 2TB so no extra HDD required
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 have Dell ST2220L
7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: Please exclude monitor, HDD, keyboard/mouse, UPS, Speakers
8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: ASAP
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: Yes, I have assembled a PC
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: Bangalore, but I can purchase online too.
11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: I have an inclination towards Intel based PCs
