GM Harry.
I am very happy with the monitor. Go for it.:). The USB hub on the monitor also works great.

I would be getting the gfx card today.. got stuck with the corsair psi.. (snapdeal..:mad:). Will buy it from vashi plaza today.

Thanks for the reply brother, hope you enjoy the rig.
 
This is how it looks. I have put a blue fan on the side of the cabinet. On the left is the UPS. Photo taken without flash with Lumia 720...lovely phone.:)

If you are looking for a heavy built, i think it is better to go for a good high capacity UPS. Especially with a big screen the UPS will run out of gas in a few minutes/ seconds. My earlier UPS were from Sukam and Powersafe. The powersafe was still better; Sukam is just crap. After an year it cannot even support the internet router for more than a few seconds..forget about the PC :( . So this time i spend three times more than what i would have normally spent.. hoping for the best,

Thanks a lot for your patient replies brother.
Well I do have a heavy(?) build except graphics card. But whatever I have is quite expensive, I bought hoping it would last some time rather than just getting outdated in 2 yrs.
Hope it does last long. But for that I guess I also need a UPS, although there is not much problem here but still I think its better to be safe.
But am heavily confused as to which UPS to go for.
 
If you can manage the budget, get the model I bought. There is an option to increase the backup time by connecting additional battery later.
Although power situation in vashi is much better now, I did not want to risk the rig due to power problems. I also plan to add a smaller ups for the router which is currently connected to the old ups.
BTW, I have hooked up my cordless landline with the new ups..so no sudden disconnection due to power.:)

..."overbudget heavy rig"...:D..heavy on configuration and pocket:p
Thanks to emi on credit cards..

Sorry forgot to reply here earlier.
I got a Dell u2312hm. For media consumption it's an awesome monitor, IPS is on another level than TN.
But for general work like word, excel and browing I found it a bit stressing. Don't know why exactly.
 
Hi harry_houdini

I don't know about you, but for me, upgrading from a 15 inch 3:4 LCD monitor to a 24incher widescreen behemoth was awesome. For the first time i had to move my head instead of my eyeballs to capture the whole screen while working on a document :rolleyes: . But the brightness is a bit too much for document work. Try to reduce the brightness when working on documents. It might help...:)
