    Budget 21-30k CPU advice

    It is quite an adventure to try a 5900X on that board. It will work, but it won't perform optimally over time. Better to go for a 5700X.

    Budget 0-20k Good budget mAtx board for R5600x?

    For your requirement, I'd suggest ASRock B550M Steel Legend..... And yes, for good performance, use a half-decent Air Cooler or a smaller AIO.

    Wi-Fi Cards: Intel 9260, Intel 9560, Intel AX200, Intel AX201 and Mediatek MT7921

    MT7921 Wi-Fi 6 M.2 adapter installed and fully functional in Intel 10th gen platform, so if you all are looking at whether the newer chips would be compatible with older boards, the answer is yes. For the record, these chips are intel only - won't work with an AMD motherboard/CPU: Intel AC-9560...

    Beware: Avast and AVG are officially snoopware!

    Webroot is a bad product. Good luck. It's also basically useless without a 24/7 Internet connection.

    Beware: Avast and AVG are officially snoopware!

    Well, I use some computers with paid versions of AVG/Avast. The paid versions snoop a lot too. You'll get random alerts that your IP address is visible, please get VPN. You may open gmail one fine day and AVG/Avast will alert you to add the email signature for "peace of mind" for your friends...

    FS: Desktops Price Drop : Intel Core i5 6600K + Gigabyte Z170X-Gaming 3

    That means I'll pretty much have to spend a lot on heatsink + RAM. Might be worth it to just buy new CPU + Mobo combo then. Let me think about this.After some consideration, I think deal's off - I'll just buy a new one. I don't plan on OCing much as I will not be using the rig, and it seems...

    Any experiences with Cashify?

    They are good, but keep their contact number handy. They run their operation through franchisees. If the vendor who comes to your house offers a lower valuation, call cashify and explain the situation. They will then give you a whatsapp number where you can send the phone pics.

    Game collection discussion (Physical copies only).

    If I remember correctly, in India you have the "official" distributor's versions which are barely have anything than a card and discs, and you have those "Eastern European/Asian imports" which usually come in DVD casing but do include full manuals and occasionally some freebies too.

    At least till 2019 there will be 5 as Idea/Vodafone will initially operate under separate brands "for customers" (i.e. one company, two brands). This is already announced.

    FS: Desktops Price Drop : Intel Core i5 6600K + Gigabyte Z170X-Gaming 3

    Hmm, I might be interested, but I am not currently in Mumbai. I can update you on whether I am still interested in about 10 days if you don't sell it off by then..... Questions: 1) Do I need to change the CPU cooler combo or add new thermal paste? 2) Anything else I should be looking out for...
