    So, I got it repaired. Here are some details which may help other A5 users. The below is my assumption - please correct if you see a mistake. There are two circuit boards in the audioengine 5. The left one seems like the preamp. It has two voltage regulators, some 8-9 solid caps and other caps...

    Audioengine repair Mumbai

    Have a pair of audioengine 5, which are about 6 years old. Lately there is a scratchy sound coming from both the speakers. The sound is similar to when blows into a microphone. In between, there are random boom sounds. Since two days, the problem is there as soon as the speakers are switched on...

Meanwhile Amazon gets my business, 16 orders in the last 6 months worth more than 60k I never faced any issues with any of the online stores (Amazon, Fk, SD...

    Graphic Cards GTX 970 with a P45 and E8200 ?

    Yes, the CPU/RAM bottleneck is clear from the video - however the game is playable Regarding settings - do settings matter when running a benchmark? i though benchmarks run at a standard parameter so we can measure the performance across different test setups.

    Graphic Cards GTX 970 with a P45 and E8200 ?

    Yeah Lord Nemesis, I was thinking I will upgrade rest of the system if required i.e. if i can't play the current generation games But, I think i can manage a few months with just the GTX 970 upgrade. I am able to play GTA V with very high to high settings. Although i have up my page file to...

So I will start the upgrades with the GPU - just got a GTX 970 today and started Witcher 3. Will continue playing tomorrow and see...

Its been almost 5 and half years since i upgraded my PC - I really don’t feel like going for a mid range GPU. Suppose the games are unplayable after the upgrade, I will upgrade the...
