Dear all,

Thanks for your help. I was not in position to waste any more time so I went to sofitel and bought machine with following specs

Intel Quad Core 2.83 Ghz Q9550

4 GB RAM

17” LG LCD

And rest of the stuff for PC

It cost me 2270 QR in Total

I would advice you to buy a branded laptop rather than facing all these hurdles for non-reliable things. As long as you go cheep for price, the worth of item is getting down as we all know in general. Go for branded desk top or branded pc, better. good luck...

Thank you all for your replies. I am now exploring another option and now looking for a quad core system with at least 4 GB RAM for one month rent or something. I have a exam after 1 month (on 6th of Oct) for which I need this high end machine Any body can help please reply.

Thanks in Advance.

I dont see the logic in buying a branded pc that goes for double the price just coz of the brand name when they all use the same bloody parts that u get in the open market. Secondly with assembled computer u can choose what u want and adjust the price on certain items/bargaining. You cant do that with the branded ones coz they are "fixed prices".

if you are looking for branded PC then go to PCone, they are simply best in it ...they have in-house service center also

but if you are looking for assembled PC, then go to Sofitel. you can buy parts and assemble yourself or get someone from there itself to assemble it for you ..

Good Luck on new PC :)

I will backup smoke on this one

1.- Get your specs

2.- Go to sofitel

3.- Walk around the many stores and ask for help on building/and quoting the price of what you want.

Take a choice/decision.

If you still don't know the city just take a cab and ask the driver to drop you in Sofitel.

Regards...best of luck!!
