A Friend of mine asked me " Is it possible to build a PC for casual gaming and still be under Rs.10000?"
He further added he want to do gaming more than any other thing. He wanted to add a 1TB HardDisk and so I told him it is very difficult to come up the parts that cheap and have desired performance. for instance I would personally use a 500GB HardDisk rather than a 1tb one as it is cheaper and I can always upgrade and add more later.
I adviced him the budget is too low even for a low-end gaming PC, the processor and motherboard alone cost 6850, but he kept on insisting so I came up with a list of components to not overshoot the budget by a large difference. Only Rs.5000 more to the budget.
So, this is how it goes :
- Processor - AMD
Athlon 5150 (INR 3850)Sempron 2650 (INR 2600) - RAM - Dynet 4GB (INR 2000)
- Hard Disk - Seagate Barracuda 1TB (INR 3800)
- Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-AM1M-S2H (INR 3000)
- Power Supply - Zebronics Zeb-N450W (INR 600)
- Internal Optical Drive - LG DVD Writer (INR
1200900)
The total came out to be INR
I think my friend is gonna be disappointed for a while but I'll see if it can be sorted out.
UPDATE : 2 Days Later
Now that my friend has stretched his budget by 2000 to INR 12000, I think I can suggest him another processor with near performance of the selected one.
Now I am suggesting him AMD Sempron 2650 which cost INR 2600. Which will bring down the total cost by 1250 to INR 13250.
