Hi guys, in case anyone backs out, feel free to include me.

Hey thanks for that, at this point, I'm looking for just 1X8GB. I'll reach out in case I change my mind.

Hi, I'm looking for the following: 1. A 8GB DDR4 Module for my backup desktop 2. A low cost PSU to go with the setup including an I37100 , GIGABYTE H110M S2, along with AMD 6500XT and 1x 500 GB 7200RPM HDD. 3. Also thinking of buying a decent entry level gaming wheel (maybe a G29, not sure...

Hey I could explore that, could you give me a sense if older PSUs could have weaker capacitors or circuits by any chance? I read something to that effect on a reddit post. (Although I recognize that I do not have too much of a choice , given the price point that I hope to get it at).

Hi everyone, I am putting together a i37100 based backup system and am looking for a reasonable PSU. Albeit I do not plan to spend too much for obvious reasons, including that it won't be used too much. I would also run my AMD 6500XT on it along with probably a sata magnetic storage HDD. Are...

Haha it was Jan 16, 2024 alright. Not particularly proud of what I did, that too for trying to save 400 bucks ! And that trust pilot review had me grinning, although I was naive enough to not look up reviews before ordering ! I guess years of online ordering had got me complacent. And its...

Hi everyone, The title says it all. I already have an i37100 to go with my GIGABYTE H110M S2. However, I intend to use the I37100 elsewhere, so I am keen to get hopefully something better for my backup PC, while hopefully not spending too much on it. Here is a list of compatible processors...

Welcome ! :)

I'm not sure what you mean by "use" It. I can see the amount credit in my card unbilled transactions list. I hope it reflects as a credit in the bill too. Will keep you updated. Another small win: I have managed to get the website's payment gateway provider (Cashfree) to block their services...

Hi All, I am contemplating buying a Steering Wheel, Paddle and Shifter Combo to have some fun on the weekends. Wanted some suggestions on which combos might be a good choice. While in theory I would prefer simulators, but there is a risk that I might quickly get bored and start using it just...

Update: I was a little bit skeptical at first and thought that a better GPU like 4060ti 16GB alone might give at least playable frame rates on current titles. How wrong was I ! I tested the GPU on my old system (i37100 + 16GB DDR4)- and titles like Alan wake 2 played worse than a power point...

Update guys: HDFC bank has given me a temporary credit equal to the transaction amount and has written to the merchant for evidence. The merchant gets 45 days to respond with evidence, failing which my credit will become permanent. Thanks to @kunnalthapa @awestorr and @variablevector and...

Thanks for sharing this. I guess I was in your boat as well, but luckily I was in India so I took the slightly less bad ChAdOx1-S/nCoV-19 (Astrazeneca). I was lucky, but my sister suffered moderate VAERS (swelling in lymph nodes and allergic reaction) and nobody at the vaccination center / let...

I have some sympathy for your point on any rants at the mere use of the term experts, but I have sympathy for such behavior among the uninformed. I doubt that will ever go. Anyway lets park that for some time later since we do not have significant disagreement there. That seems to me to be a...

My broad point is that as I and many others believe, many experts are biased or influenced by vested interests - and scientific organizations are increasingly getting bureaucratic and scientific journals relying more on reputation than pure reasonableness of arguments being proposed in academic...

While that is true, you would probably agree that a lot of popular criticisms / questions are so low quality that scientists tend to develop a sort of arrogance towards any questions that challenge the conventional wisdom. Off course not, there's no taking away from the wonders of what...

To be fair to @booo, It is clear that the word "expert" is very often misused. If anything, the pandemic made it clear to me, that experts in positions of power are often more driven by political and conflicts of interest than their commitment to upholding scientific truth. Its quite obvious to...

Thanks responders. Especially @Futureized and @OMEGA44-XT . I am intuitively more comfortable with WIN10 as well, so on balance, would probably stick to it for now, and get it from TE, if possible. And I've also felt that Win 11 is more about trying to push stuff more than it was on WIN10...

Hi everyone, I am looking to pick between win 10 and 11 for a new configuration that I'm setting up. AMD RYZEN FX 5700X MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI Rtx 4060 Ti 16Gb Corsair CMK16GX4M1E3200C16 GB My end use would be moderate gaming, LLM and a little bit of video editing/up scaling etc. I am...

@awestorr @variablevector : I called HDFC Bank customer support, they told me that to charge back I would have to block my card which I agreed to. They told me to separately file an online dispute claim which I did after which the website informed me that the bank shall contact me in 48 hours...
