    Does the Flipkart "Open Box Delivery" include actually testing the item ? (monitor in this case)

    As the title says if I buy a monitor from FK with "Open Box Delivery", can I actually test the monitor before accepting it? This will take quite a while, right ? To unbox it, connect it to the PC etc.

    Mods, please close this thread. The buyer has not posted here so I cannot leave feedback. Posted this mainly because I'm still getting enquiries.

    CPU/Mobo Unable to use XMP with Gigabyte B450M DS3H V2

    Ryzen 3 2200G. 4 x 8GB Corsair Vengeance.. Ya, you could be right, R3 2200G specs say "System Memory Specification Up to 2933MT/s" Link Learn something new everyday, LOL. Also I just learned that if you have four memory slots and two ram sticks it is better to use the slots away from the...

    CPU/Mobo Unable to use XMP with Gigabyte B450M DS3H V2

    I recently bought a Gigabyte B450M DS3H V2. I have Corsair Vengence DDR4 (which has XMP). Even if enabled in BIOS, the XMP settings just wont show up. I'm not the only one facing this issue. See Success with running xmp 3200mhz ram with b450m ds3h Thats with a a older version of the mobo and 5...

    Monitors Good IPS 24 inch monitor, preferably LG.

    OK thanks. Most prob I'll be buying that monitor. I'll report - with a HDMI 2.0 cable and with a old but unused Monoprice HDMI 1.3a cable.

    Monitors Good IPS 24 inch monitor, preferably LG.

    if a monitor specs, e.g. LG UltraGear 24GS60F-B, say "180Hz refresh rate" and has both HDMI 2.0 and Display Port, will the refresh rate be 180 Hz on both ? I have a Ryzen 3 + B450 mobo. no GPU, , so only HDMI & DVI. So no DP.

    I'll be using the old monitor. The 24GS60F-B has a matte (non-reflective) screen, right ?

    Monitors Good IPS 24 inch monitor, preferably LG.

    My LG 24EA53 is getting long in the tooth, about 10 years old. This monsoon it would not come on unless I put it off-on 2 -3 times. Suggest a good IPS 24 incher, 1080p. I would prefer LG because I've had good experience with LG. LG Customer service in Mumbai is good too I've heard. I've had to...

    Good low wattage PSU.

    Ya the 450VX was really something. Looks like I used it for 12+ years (pic). Rs 4250 in 2007 is how much today ?

    Good low wattage PSU.

    Not dead. What I remember is the system would reboot randomly or something. I was actually relieved it turned out to be the PSU because it was ten years old and I didn't have to replace the mobo or something. This was when COVID had just struck and it was diff to get anything. Luckily Prime...

    Good low wattage PSU.

    The current system is like 10 years old, LOL. Haswell. That one has the CX450 which I bought in 2020 (to replace the Corsair VX450 which lasted me more than 10 years). The newer system needs a PSU. I plan to keep/use both the systems.

    Good low wattage PSU.

    Just to confirm, you are referring to this, right ? Cooler Master MWE 450 Bronze V2 Power Supply - Non-Modular Asking because when it comes to PSUs sometimes there are different versions of the same model. Wish I could pick it up from Prime. I don't trust Amazon packing/shipping. EDIT : it's...

    Good low wattage PSU.

    I have a Corsair CX450 in my current system. I need a PSU for a newer system - Ryzen 3 3200G + B450 MoBo, one NVMe SSD, one HDD. Non-gamer, no GPU. Frankly, even a 350W PSU will do. Recommend a good PSU. I can only find Corsair CX550 (I don't understand the black/gray/white label stuff).

    Indian Railways Train Journey Discussion.

    I don't think "going 3-4 hrs late on average" is correct. Things are def improving, I remember what it was like years ago. e.g. My relative who has a house in Goa would regularly drive down - I would tell him he must be in the Limca Book of Records. These days, after Vande Bharat, he prefers...

    Indian Railways Train Journey Discussion.

    I've traveled by train quite a few times in the last few years - mainly between Mumbai and GUJ/RAJ/MP/MAHA/GOA. By and large the trains have been on time +- 15 min. Actually few times the train has reached the destination (last) stop a bit early. Once a train starting from Mumbai was going to...
