Various Speed test sites give me close to 50Mbps speed. But all the torrents (from both public and private trackers) are super slow, varying between 4.4-120KBps. Everything was fine till yesterday morning. Anyone else facing this issue ? Maybe this is the flip side of the recent speed and FUP...

Since the last 2 months, the speed is reminding me of horrible Hathway days. I'm on a 30Mbps plan and speed after evening goes down to 1-2Mbps and sometimes even less than that regularly. Anybody else experiencing this ? I have called them numerous times (incl Nodal officer) and they keep...

I'm considering buying an e-book reader for the first time and have narrowed it down to Kindle basic touch and the Paperwhite since nook and kobo readers are not readily available here. I have no budget constraint as such but want it to be worth the price. I have the following questions for the...

I need to buy internal HDD for the new Desktop. Prices seem to be around 5.8-6k for 2TB and 7-7.5k for 3TB. 2TB will be enough for me but 3TB is cheaper per GB. The problem is I remember many members complaining about failing of 2/3 TB HDDs (especially WD green drives). So which one would...

My cousin is travelling to US right now on a business trip and I wanted to get some PC stuff from there. But instead of a credit card, his company gave him a prepaid Amex card which he can't use online. So can I buy those from here in India with my debit card which happens to be a Titanium...

Hi ! My friend is coming from US next month and I am thinking to ask him to get me a GPU as they are much cheaper and may be Procy/Mobo/RAM as well. Do any of Saphire / HIS / Gigabyte / G Skill / Intel honor international warranty ?

Okay, So I have not been following the CPU/Mobo/GPU etc trends for a long time. I think my old AMD rig has served its purpose in the last 5 years, now it will be used as a Home PC. I have not played Games for almost 1.5-2 Yrs now, so a lot of the games in the backlog. I'll post my requirements...

This is my own experience after using the connection for 2 weeks+. I had to relocate recently and the place I live in is not covered by ACT yet. So I was searching for good and fast broadband provider at a reasonable price. I found out I have 2 options - 1. Hathway DocSIS 3.0 network which...

I have seen a lot of my friends who use Interchangeable lens cameras, almost always end up buying a UV filter. Most of them are usually made to believe that those filters improve Image quality by reducing haze and UV ray. I think this topic has been discussed to death in various photography...

I do have a router but that would require space on my table and more wires so prefer the wifi dongle to act as wifi hotspot. Can you guys recommend some good free software ?

A couple of weeks ago, ACT did some maintenance activity and after that, browsing has been painfully slow. Anybody else in facing this issue ? Regular downloads don't seem to be affected by much. And they have blocked torrentz/kickasstorrents etc again !

This happened to me a couple days ago and then it was fine after a few hrs. I thought it was some glitch. But from yesterday, again, popular torrent sites as torrentz.eu, piratebay, 1337 are not accessible - only a blank page shows up. Happening to anybody else in B'lore ?

After waiting too long, finally got these today :) It's really small for an APS-C camera SLIK F 740 Damages : They were giving me the camera @ 38,999/- with free Sandisk 16GB class 10 card (apart from the 4GB card + HDMI cable that was part of Sony India offer) But I asked...

Hi ! My questions are mainly for those who have bought stuffs from B&H and/or who have bought camera gear in general from US or EU. I want to buy the Sony NEX-5R and some other lenses & accessories. It seems that the damned India dept of Sony doesn't care about releasing their NEX series - heck...

Hi Guys ! I need to get a Credit card which will be mainly used for Forex transaction i.e. buying from newegg/amazon. I'd also use this for my personal shopping when I'm on a business trip. Main criteria should be less forex txn charge. Any suggestions ? Don't wanna use Amex. P.S. - I'm not...
