Hi Guys,



New to this Forum. I need help in configuring a new PC. I have a budget of around 25K. I need a PC Basically for Home use. I will also be using this Rig for doing some programming and some high performance calculations on Excel. The last 2 will be less frequent. But still I would need a computer which could handle some load. Could you please suggest me a PC for the said use. I might use it for gaming but again would think about it at a later stage and would add a GPU later on. Does this idea make sense?



Apart from this i would also like to know
1)Where can i buy the parts in Pune.
2)Is it safe to buy the parts from Flipkart/Online. If yes How do I assemble the PC?
