    51-70k GTX 1080 for gaming in 2021

    Unless you're getting it for a very cheap price, I don't think it's worth it at this time. I currently own a laptop with a GTX 1060 that is currently worth ~50k or even less perhaps so maybe if you have a deal in that ballpark you might consider. Also it's age does show up in terms of benchmarks...

    (NO GPUs) 'How much can I sell this for?' thread

    I'm not sure if they're bare SATA disks or a portable USB drive but you can expect around 3k each. New ones generally sell in the 5k ballpark. This is more interesting. I'm not sure about the age and condition (or the capacity of disks it supports). I can find a couple new ones for 25k so I...

    Review What are the risks involved with getting an item shipped by seller on olx via CoD?

    You could but scams are way more common than you'd expect so realistically you can't expect anything from either a police complaint or from OLX. You can if you;re able to convince the delivery guy but usually not. I'm not sure about CoD logistics but I would definitely avoid stuff from OLX...

    News Mi authorised stores running scams in India?

    Lol wtf. That's such a screwed up practice although I don't have any hopes on this changing anytime soon anyways. After getting my Poco the first thing I did was move out of MIUI. I don't really understand how people can stand such a shitty excuse for an OS. Pixelexperience is infinitely better IMO

    Windows 10 sign in caution !

    I set to login with my MS account so you could look into setting that up. Although if you were able to get rid of the bootloader and a full disk format Windows shouldn't generally make a fuss about it.

    I got conned on instagram, pls advice me on how to go about with it

    Sorry mate but cut your losses and move on is the best thing you can do. You can try cyber cell but realistically nothing is going to come out of it. Don't trust FB/Insta or any marketplace in general and prefer physically inspecting goods before purchase. To be fair Techenclave is also such a...

    Browser Review

    I have been using Firefox for several years as well. Firefox + UBlock Origin is an incredible combination for me. That combined with the built-in strict enhaced tracking protection, DNS over HTTPS (DoH) and Green Tunnel is my current setup to get rid of ads locally. I am looking to switch to...

    20-25K Smartphone for Elderly

    Long story short, 5G is still atleast 2 years away until beomes feasible so my suggestion to you is to avoid 5G phones this cycle and opt for it during the next purchase. The so called 5G trials are already happening in various circles but it's not the true 5G in the strictest sense.

    WTB Looking to buy used RX 480/570/580 or GTX 1060

    Given the GPU shortage scene most of these are unforatunately selling at inflated prices (~14k). I hope you can find some generous person willing to sell below 10k

    0-20k Budget GPU recommendation to get 60 fps at 1080p medium-high

    I was lucky enough to pick one up for ~8.5k before this whole fiasco. Currently it's lying idle because I'm looking for a better CPU but there's no way I'm getting rid of my GPU given the current situation.

    0-20k Budget GPU recommendation to get 60 fps at 1080p medium-high

    I'm not sure about current market prices but a GTX 1060 6GB is a good choice in the 8.5-9k range. Due to GPU shortage most of these are likely selling at higher prices

    20-25K Phone for learning customization

    I would suggest using the trusty old Moto G5 Plus. I have not seen any phone having as diverse and extensive range of customization options as the G5 Plus but the phone itself is very old at this point so you should be able to find one dirt cheap. Even if you mess up, you don't burn a huge hole...

    WTB Want to buy android phones (oneplus preferred) and broken iPhones

    I don't have OnePlus phones but I have two (broken) android phones I'm looking to get rid of. Asus Max Pro M2 (6GB/64GB) Purchased in early 2020 and used for ~4 month before I switched to another phone. The touchscreen randomly stops working. It can potentially be fixed by changing the display...
