Zenith PC - Model: 302F-XII

Intel Pentium Dual-Core Processor E2140 (1 MB Cache, 1.6GHz, 800MHz FSB)
Intel Original 945 Motherboard
1 GB DDR2- 533 SDRAM
80 GB HDD (SATA II)
Onboard Integrated GMA 950 Graphics, High Definition Audio, 10/100 LAN
USB Logitech Optical Mouse
Keyboard

Cost = Rs.20500/- *

*Prices mentioned include excise duty.
Freight, Insurance, Installation and 1 year On-site Maintenance Rs.2000 extra.Local Taxes, VAT and Octroi(wherever applicable)extra.

So,

20500 + 2000 + taxes =

should come around Rs. 25000 /-

First I should tell that, I really dont know how the config should be. Friends say go for dual core - 512 ram - 160 gb hard disk. I really dont know what is that 1.6 ghz. mhz , mother board etc :wall:
Is it a good deal. I am planning to go fot it. Any suggestions 🙂

Does the above offer include an original copy of Windows? If not its probably not really worth it...if you do get Windows (XP or Vista) it is probably worth it... although I would recommend getting 2 GB RAM and at least 160 GB Hard disk with DVD writer these days 🙂Actually I dont like it because the CPU is not latest "Core 2 Duo" 😛 edit: yes motherboard is also old...A friend of mine recently (few weeks ago) got a quote for assembled PC for Rs 30k all inclusive (no Windows of course), this has Core 2 Duo 2.66 Ghz, 2 GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Disk, DVD writer, 19 inch LCD, onboard graphics, speakers with subwoofer...i always prefer/recommend assembled unless you need/get original installation of Windows...best solution: either get assembled PC or get a good Dell or HP model...

so what are you getting finally?

 

[~Hami~]

I have noted manu1991's parts pricing. and by next month i ll buy them... 🙂

 

[coolbuddy_79]

also, in manu's config u can save around 300 bucks for the keyboard and mouse if u go for other brands...and i don't think u'd need the speakers...they're obsolete these days, at least for me...

dont go for zenith or hcl or for god sake any other indian pc manufacturer. if you are going to buy an assembled go for either HP or Dell. the best is to find a reliable assembler or a friend and get a custom made machine.
