Hello Digit users,
I am a basic Android developer. I want to sell my old laptop(Acer Aspire 4738Z, 2 years old) and buy a Desktop for my personal use, gaming as well as android development. My budget is around 35k-40k.
Here are my basic requirements:
*A fast processor of atleast 2.5Ghz clock speed and quad/octa core.(An Intel i5 maybe, but which variant?)
*Atleast 4GB RAM
*HDD of around 500GB-750GB.
*A Graphic Card for Games like NFS The Run, GTA-4, COD MW4, Far Cry3 and other high end games. (Now Compulsory)
* Atleast a 18" LCD/LED monitor (A resolution nice enough to play those games)
* A DVDRW drive
It should be able to run both Linux and Windows.
All with a preferable motherboard, Power supply and a case.
I don't want to OC it.
Will be using Windows 8 and Ubuntu 12
Also, please suggest a good wifi receiver(I have a wifi modem at home).
EDIT:
Questions as per forums:
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:I want the COmputer for ANdroid development with java and smali programming. Also, for games like GTA, NFS, Applications like MS Office, Adobe Creative Suite.
2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans:Budget is of About 35K, can be maximum extended to 40K
3. Planning to overclock?
Ans:No Plans As such.
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: A dual boot with Windows 8 and Ubuntu 12
5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans:500-750GB
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.

11. Anything else which you would like to say?
