Hi,
I sold my iMac a year back and now was looking at Mac-Mini - but that too comes out to at least 40k + keyboard/mouse/monitor additional, etc.

So I am looking at options of putting together a Windows PC myself for home use and photography use.
The problem is, I seriously doubt I have the time to do this myself. But then I haven't completely resigned on it yet either.

Configuration I am looking at is:
some i7 CPU (I guess that above average?)
a decent 1GB video card (enough for lightroom/photoshop to work flawlessley)
4-8GB RAM
500GB HDD

I understand this is a regular decent setup - and thats what I want.

Now my questions are:
1. If I go about putting this together myself, how much would components alone cost me? (including case/PSU/etc)
2. If I have someone else put this together for me (I am in Hyderabad), how much of a premium would I be paying?
3. Do we know anyone here in Hyderabad who would put this together for me locally?

Without the monitor/keyboard/mouse, I was looking at about 20-25k budget. If that too much or just right or less?

Thanks in advance.

20-25k budget for CPU, gpu, 8GB ram & whatever else you want? :confused:
I hope you saw prices of at least i7 in an online store first.
 
im a beginner - well i am very techie - but first time putting together something like this. would have to settle for i5 then i guess.
