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: Purely for gaming purposes..And running the most tasking games like GTA5 and witcher3 at a Min of 1080p(high to ultra).will look foreward to 4k experiance if possible on the rig
2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: Around 1-.1.2 lakhs but can max. Extend it a further about 10000. I have written a bit about budget in the last question too.
3. Planning to overclock?
Ans: No.That's my 1st gaming rig and i would want it to give me as stable performance,without worring about all the heating issues and all.
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: I haven't had the taste of win 8 till now.I have been using 7 and will continue to use it.
5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: I guess 500Gb to 1Tb max.Coz i would be buying a 2Tb ext. Hdd.And I would like to add that I just dont care if my load times are a few second quick using SSD. just give me rig for max. fps
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: Yes and no. I already have a samsung 22" 1080p LCD monitor.Now if my budget allows me go for a 22" 1080p LED or 4k(u guys suggest me in that department) monitor.I may purchase it.
7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: I don't need an SSD. If my current monitor works the charm I may reuse it.And I am not quiet sure about an Optical drive.
8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: Within 2 months or 3months at max.
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans:This is the tricky part over here. I have no experience with pc assembling. But this one I would like to do it myself if I am guided properly.. Also do these high end rigs have to be assembled in a different way compared to the 60-70k pc's. The catch being my area assemblers aren't that educated i guess(but they assemble 60-70k pc just fine). So I wouldn't risk burning my PC by their hands at the time of assembling if this pc would require a higher knowledge
of assembling.
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: My 1st priority will definitely be local purchases. But if
Parts aren't available locally. What options do I have?
Will go for online purchases
11. Anything else which you would like to say?(PLEASE give this one a read)
Ans:Yes i would. I am a college going child. Do I even need to buy a custom gaming rig?
Or would an alienware 15 sum everything up. Also in Graphics department i read about Nvidia gtx 980ti being launched in India. Also read its performance results. It gave almost a 70-80% increase over the existing 970. Bt at a cost of 55000 I guess. So is it advisable to shell out such amount of money on a single component.
ALSO I saw gaming rigs here on forum that was max.ed for abt 80k. Considering an extended budget I may like to get the 980ti. But i won't want bottlenecking other components mentioned in the config.
Being an Indian I too would want the price to be as low as possible without lowering the fps of course.
And please suggest me an Intel rig not** an Amd one.
Though I am flexible in the graphics department b/t Nvidia or AMD cards. Also yes I am not much of an i7 kind of guy..If an i5 gets me about the same perf. Then I may go for it,Considering the price factor.
Also if the rig mentioned in the forum thread(abt 80k one) gets me the same performance I would be dancing around naked in the streets.
