    71-90K Home Virtualization lab

    71-90K Home Virtualization lab

    Hi, you are going to buy the rig for learning/training right? Then why spend more for the highest end CPU like 8350 ? You will need a minimum of 3 to 4 host machines to learn many features like DRS/FT properly, not an overly powerful single host. SO get 3 to 4 mid end bulldozer quad cores...

    Review Theitwarescom - Reliability?

    Once I mistakenly recommened itwares to my friend to buy a PSU, Seasonic 630 one. Price was ok, and so bought it right away. But it came DOA, and when we called up rahul, he started acting rude.

Hdd technology isnt something too much for them, as they are already making flash memories/tablets etc with decent enough technologies. Atleast that would tecah the so called two mega brands , ie SB and...

    GSkill RipJawsX 16GB (2x 8GB) 1600MHz CL10 RAM @1632/-

    Thank GOD, i got my 4x4 vengeance at 2600/- on the black friday deal from the US. First i was shocked to see the thread title, Hope they will price the same at around ~4k, even then it would be good deal, and i would go for one kit for sure if < 5k. Currently 16GB ram is throttling many of my needs.

    Graphic Cards Is Biostar 8400GT better than Integrated 4200 HD?

    8400GT should be slightly better, but if it was 8400GS, then they would be almost similar matched. And there is no way to combine the power of both are both are from different stables.
