Subject: System requirements to suffice your daily computational needs
Dear Mary,
I am writing this mail to you in order to list and justify the hardware and software requirements
according to your work and leisure needs. Before purchasing any computer system, to determine
the hardware and peripheral requirements of the system is the most important step.
The hardware requirements for your system are as follows:
 8 GB of Primary Memory (DDR4 RAM)
 64-Bit Quad Core Processor with minimum clock speed of 3.2 GHz (i5 or i7- 7th
Generation series Intel processor or equivalent AMD processor)
 Motherboard with 2 DDR4 RAM slots and support for 7th Generation Intel Processors,
High Quality Audio Capacitors, GbE LAN card and a total 4 USB 3.0 and 2 USB 2.0
ports (Lykkebø et al., 2014).
 1 TB of Hard Disk Drive with SATA (Serial AT Attachment) ports
 4GB DDR5 Graphics Card (Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050 TI or equivalent AMD card),
which will allow you to play modern day games, hassle-free.
 Wireless (for laptops) - 802.11ac (with WPA2 support)
 450 Watt Power Supply Unit
Apart from the core hardware requirements, the peripherals that your system must consist of are:
 21” Full HD LED Monitor
 Keyboard and Mouse

 Audio Speakers
 Headphones
 120Vac UPS
 All-in-one Ink Jet Printer
 Internet Router or Modem alongside Broadband LAN connection
The above mentioned requirements will help you to get a strong platform on which you can run
all your necessary applications for both educational, utility and leisure purposes. Below, you will
find the detailed list of the system software and other application software packages that will be
necessary for you to carry on with your daily data analytic works, projects and entertainment.
The software specifications of the system will be as follows:
 Windows 10 Operating System (64 bit)
 Motherboard drivers (Chipset driver, Graphics driver, Audio driver, LAN driver, WLAN
driver for laptop)
 Microsoft Office 2016 (MS Word, MS PowerPoint, MS Excel, MS Access, MS Visio,
MS Project)
 VLC Media Player for watching movies and listening to music.
 Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome or Mozila Firefox web browser software for browsing
the web
 Any Windows platform game
The utility software packages that you would require to back-up your data or archive important
file sets are as follows:
 WinRAR or WinZip to archive, compress or extract groups of files.

 Google Drive or One Drive software to keep cloud backup of the necessary media files or
important documents.
Apart from the above mentioned utility software that were important for the basic utility
operations, you will also require a few security based utility programs that will protect your
computer and accounts from security threats. You will need to install an affordable Anti-virus
software with web security enabled. A few examples of such software would be McAfee, ESET,
and Kaspersky and so on (Al-Saleh, 2013). These updated security software packages will not
only protect your computer from virus programs but will also protect your system from external
security breaches and threats.
It has been my pleasure to help you out with recommendations for buying a new computer
system, which will help you in your daily computational needs. Also, I would like to wish the
best for your educational and professional career ahead.
Thank you.
