Hi,

I am planing for a budget PC for my in-laws.

Total Budget 20k (PC + monitor)

What you feel is good option 1) buying PC 2) assembling ?

In general what's the performance of assembling PC? I mean reliability?

After my college days (many years) I am not this assembling world as working and busy.

If I do it then I will get more than if I buy it. But service is a issue.

So please suggest and recommend a config.

Thanks,
BT
 
If your inlaws dont have much knowledge of PC and service can be an issue then go for the branded PCs.

Just get a basic system from HCL/Compaq/Acer. They have some decent PC's in that range (20k-22k) with Intel dual Core 3GHz, 2GB DDR3 RAM, 320GB/500GB HDD and 18.5" TFT monitor.

These usually carry 1 year On-Site warranty. But they mostly have 3 years warranty if you pay extra upfront.

Check the last few pages for various desktop configs and pricing.
 
Thanks DA,

The pdf is very good source of price info.

Still if I take risks , mobo+cpu+ram (2gb) + hdd 500gb +smps , budget 12k can burn extra for best in class.

Thanks,

BT
