Longevity · Repairability · Balance
Custom PC Builds in Mumbai
Desktops built to last 6-10 years, not 2-3. Long-life CPU platforms, modular PSUs, captive-thumbscrew cases, and standard 120/140/240/360mm cooling so any repair 5 years from now is a 30-minute job, not a special-order situation.
Long-life platforms
AM5 over AM4. LGA1851/1700 with a Z-class board. The up-front cost is ₹3-7k more than the cheapest socket, but you get a guaranteed 3-5 year upgrade path without replacing the motherboard or RAM.
Modular & standard parts
ATX (not SFX) PSUs. Full-ATX boards unless the case forces otherwise. Cases that open with one Phillips screwdriver. Fans and radiators in the 120/140/240/360mm standard sizes that any shop in Mumbai can source.
Cooling headroom for 32-35°C ambients
Mumbai indoor ambients routinely hit 32-35°C. We spec cooling headroom of 25-30°C above worst-case ambient — tower cooler for 65W CPUs, 240mm AIO for 65-125W, 360mm AIO for anything above 125W.

Us vs typical shops
The eight things we do on every build, and the gap between that and what we hear from customers who came to us after a build elsewhere.
| What we do | AssembleMyPC | Typical shops |
|---|---|---|
| Burn-in on every new build | 48 hours | None / "looks fine" |
| Compatibility audit | Socket, chipset, BIOS, RAM QVL, PSU headroom, case clearance | Customer is told to check Amazon reviews |
| Thermal paste | Quality TIM, IPA-cleaned surface, reapplication included | Stock paste only, never replaced |
| Cable management | Velcro-tied, airflow-routed, photographed for your records | Whatever happens to fit |
| Driver / firmware updates | Latest stable, dated and noted in the handover | Whatever shipped in the box |
| Warranty on workmanship | 180 days assembly / 90 days upgrades / 30 days thermal | 30 days, often disputed |
| Doorstep service | 35 Mumbai areas, 6 days a week, ₹1,000/year AMC | You bring it in, or no service |
| Pricing transparency | MRP strikethrough, GST invoice, written quote before any work | Estimated verbally, revised later |
