Looking for configurations for a friend:
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: Word, Excel, internet surfing, listening music, watching full hd movies and video clips, at times photoshop & a little video editing (not frequently). also some zynga games like farmville.
2. What is your overall budget? If you can extend a bit for a more balanced configuration, then mention this too.
Ans: 30000
3. Planning to overclock?
Ans: NO
4. Which Operating System are you planning to use?
Ans: Windows 7 / 8.1 / Ubuntu / LinuxMint
5. How much hard drive space is needed?
Ans: 1TB
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: 22 / 24 inch. full HD.
7. Which components you DON'T want to buy or which components you already have and plan on reusing?
Ans: 160gb sata hdd, Keyboard & Mouse (will buy a simple one from any brand as no gaming requirement)
8. When are you planning to buy the system?
Ans: expected in a month
9. Have you ever built a desktop before or will this be done by an assembler?
Ans: No. ( user has not built but i have built and am going to build it for him with an assembler known to me since long)
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: Lucknow. No. Will ask him to consider. (reluctant due to ASS issue)
11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: Want to build it around Fourth Generation i3 (i think that will be sufficient and will last 3-4 years as per the current need). Thinking of getting 8 gb RAM (4gb X 2 or 8gb X 1 and later add another 8gb - user's suggestion)
UPS will be bought separately. expected is APC 600VA and if budget possible i will suggest APC 1100VA.
