Hi Guys,
Looking to buy and assemble a rig in Bangalore and I need help. I've been out of this thing for quite a bit and have a very vague idea of the prices and builds that are currently vfm. I'm hoping to stay withing 50k for just a CPU as I'm gonna reuse the monitor and peripherals for now. Still if something makes sense, I'm ok with a bit of extra incurred cost. It will be awesome if some member from Bangalore could help me out with shops as well.
