    21-30k Looking to upgrade my office desktop from core i3 to something new

    Hi All, I am looking to upgrade my office computer which I built in 2016. The main motivation is that I have decided to upgrade my monitor (which I bought in 2008!) to a LG Ultrawide wQHD (3440 x 1440 @ 60Hz). I don't know if my current build will do justice to it.The way I see it, I need to at...

    21-30k WTB: 4K Monitor for mostly office use + Netflix.

    I am seriously considering the new LG ultrawide (34WL750). It's a wQHD IPS panel (3440x1440) which is coming for about 38K right now. wQHD seems to be a good compromise in gaining some screen real estate while still keeping things readable.

    21-30k WTB: 4K Monitor for mostly office use + Netflix.

    Looking for a 4K monitor. Will probably use it zero for gaming. Just need it for office work (multiple browser windows, MS Word windows etc.) and a little bit of Netflix (4K HDR) viewing. The reason I want 4K / higher resolution is so that I can get more pixels per inch, i.e. more content in...

    PC Peripherals Need an ergonomic chair

    My featherlite chair (Liberate) doesn't have sidearms that are horizontally adjustable, but the arm rests themselves can be turned to angle outwards and are fairly wide to begin with. Check out featherlite.

    If it's still available could you post a picture of a blank black screen at night? (To see the amount of backlight bleeding).

    21-30k Need a new/upgraded office PC - help!

    So have decided to get a new desktop altogether, and only retaining my SSD. Keeping most of the specifications at what you guys have recommended. As for the motherboard, I am thinking of the Asus B150M-Plus. Anyone have any opinions on that? Still have to figure out the cabinet though.

    21-30k Need a new/upgraded office PC - help!

    Thanks all for the suggestions. I don't like the Gigabyte motherboard as it only has a VGA port. Not even DVI forget HDMI. I saw that there are tons of options, so will look for more. Considering I am either retaining my case, or as per your suggestions still keeping a mid size tower, why...

    PC Peripherals Are vertical mice comfortable?

    I am using the Microsoft Sculpt ergonomic mouse, which is not fully vertical, but close enough. I love it! Using normal mice seems foolish. I can feel the difference in just an hour of use, where previously I would feel strain in my wrist, and now nothing! Highly recommend these. In my research...

    PC Peripherals Best Colour Multifunction Laser/ Inkjet printer?

    @The_Falcon We are fine with an inkjet so long as the quality of printing is high (business presentations, promotional material) which includes being able to print on 100gsm paper. In a go, we would print maybe 20-30 pages.

    After a LOT of research and buying 3 chairs from them, in my opinion Featherlite is the best VFM chair company in India.

    PC Peripherals Wi-Fi laser printer suggestions please

    Buy a brother printer. I have found them to be the most reliable, least hassle printers. Since you didn't mention a budget, you should see their site and find what suits you best yourself. IIRC their AIOs go from 10k to 35k.

    PC Peripherals Best Colour Multifunction Laser/ Inkjet printer?

    Need an AIO that can print in colour (already have a single function laser for black and white prints). The amount of printing would not be a lot (~100 pages a month), but whenever we need to print some marketing pamphlets etc. the quality has to be good. Mandatory features: Excellent colour...

    PC Peripherals VFM wireless keyboard?

    Just for anyone who stumbles on to this threads in a futile search like me for a reliable wireless keyboard and mouse. They don't exist. Buy a wired one. Conceal the wires. You don't have a choice.

    PC Peripherals A mouse that isnt a complete PoS

    You have correctly perceived that most mice (and keyboards) are POSes. I have been looking around for the last 2-3 months for one reliable wireless keybaord and mouse, and TL;DR it doesn't exist. All of them have issues. On someone's personal recommendation I am buying a Logitech m705, but it...

    PC Peripherals Suggest a basic B/w printer for local home tasks

    I agree. Inkjets actually waste a lot of ink sitting around. Know the jhig-jhag-kang-dong sounds that inkjet printers make randomly every now and then? That's them 'cleaning' themselves. With what? Ink! Every time there is a power cut and it makes that sound restarting? Yup - ink. I have since...

    PC Peripherals VFM wireless keyboard?

    So as it turns out the Anker keyboard and mouse combo is super sglitchy. If you see the errors in this post, ict's s because the kdkeyboard loves to insert random characters at its own will. Needleaess to say for my use (professional - drafting long documents) this is useless. Back to the...

    0-20k Upgrade need for Office Computer

    Hmmm... well as far as the primary drive goes, it is indeed the SSD now (which has 87GB free out of 111GB) so no problems there. RAM - I have been seeing the Performance tab in the Task Manager, and it is mostly going on at a steady 2.7GB / 4GB (68%) with a few spikes here and there. So I think...
