So I will be getting a new PC assembled, managed to get a person to whom I need to send the config. I am planning to ask him as well for suggestions. But in general, want some idea of what to ask - as its been almost a decade since I have delved into all this

But this is the general idea I had - considering cost & needs.... Any suggestions to add/change. Plus any suggestions for specific model etc welcome

1) Motherboard – AMD (Decent performance)
2) AMD Processor
3) 4 GB Ram
4) 1 TB HDD
5) Cabinet – Decent level
6) Power Supply – Decent level
7) Entry level Graphics Card – Basic needs , not for high-end gaming
8) Wireless Keyboard/Mouse

Already have monitor, no need of CD/DVD writer as well...Any other crucial part I am missing?

30k on the higher end.... Prefer near to 20s.... Also mostly browsing & docs is the use... amateur photo editing is the max. intensive work I see happening on it.

Thats why even I put it here - to get some suggestions.... AMD I have heard about heating issues long ago - Does that persist even now... But well, lets wait for the feedback.

The only catch is I need to probably move on this quickly.

I doubt we have any active member who is into desktop pcs these days. Best would be to crosspost on another forum like Techenclave or Digit >🙂

Considering that I might be going ahead today with the purchase/order - I guess I just need some last minute tips if possible.

Based on your config - you should be able to get decent PC around 20K or may be less.

May be i3 is enough for you.

Also I have OPENED BUT NEVER USED wireless keyboard / mouse touch on keyboard.

Logitech k400r

Willing to sell at around 1800Rs. (costs about 3200Rs on Flipkart / Amazon)

Sorry could not reply as office, rains and installation kept me busy.
I got my PC made at about 30k - With most of @Nishant 's recommendations
@amish saw your post late. In any case it was for my dad - who is not comfortable even with laptop because of the touchpad. So it was ruled out in that sense.
