Naocha

Right off the assembly line
please help me out in deciding the specs.

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 will be using mainly for 70% Graphics/3d software and renderings. AND Gaming being 30%.


2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.

Ans: in future

Ans: Windows 8.1

5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: 256 SSD for main OS. Additional not required. I have extra.

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 am planning Dell ultrasharp 24 inche full HD or more (recommend me for graphic design)
