    Monitors LED monitor text reading less than 9K

    As for HD flicks, you can always borrow them or buy blu rays. Suggestion would be to go for a monitor with native resolution of 1920x1080 (also known as full HD) and with HDMI port. The HDMI port will make it compatible with Tata Sky HD and any blu ray player. Don't know about reading on LEDs...

    Price updates from S.P. Road (Bangalore)

    Jainex is the guy to go for monitors. I think he charged me 13150 + 5% VAT. Though a couple of months back, he sold it for 13k + 5% VAT to a guy while I was there. This monitor is low in stock is what the IT Gain guys told me.

    Looking for good config to practice VMware.

    So now, since K series is out of the list, the stock cooler should suffice. Anyways, a point that I missed out earlier was that the K series processors do not support Intel vPro, Intel VT-d, and Intel Trusted Execution Technology. The K series are purely for multimedia performance. Your VMs...

    Looking for good config to practice VMware.

    Sorry if I hurt any feelings. I was just sharing my point of view. (AS you know, Opinion is an A**ole) Dedicated graphics card is after all a matter of personal preference (I give up on this one). By the way, that can be added later. Overclocking again goes the same way (personal preference)...

    Looking for good config to practice VMware.

    First, you don't need the i5 2500K. The i5 2500 should do in your case as you are not going to overclock. Second, again since you are not going to overclock, you do not need an after market CPU cooler. So, save on that. Third, once again, since you won't overclock, you do not need a Z68 based...

    Asus i7 laptop

    The Acer 5740 G will come to around 43k at the max. Specs are awesome though expecially the ATI 5650 1GB along with the Core i5. And warranty would be one year international. Build quality is good as my room mate is using the 4738G for a year now.

    Mobo for Gaming, overclocking

    Biostar TA 790 GX 128M - 5k in bangalore. Bought it last month. In my opinion the Zebronics Bijli for 1.5k is almost the same as CM Elite. If you want a cabinet which belongs to the next best category, go for Lancool K 56 @ 4.5k approx. It comes with cable management, bottom mounted PSU and...

    Windows 7 upgrade on my HP pavilion

    The HP support are going to tell you the 39$ way. Because that is the legit way and a lot of manufacturers including acer, dell, etc.. are providing that option. If you go to the MS website, you can see the list. I am not sure but this option is available only till end of Jan or something.

    Windows 7 upgrade on my HP pavilion

    Just go with the $39 option. You will have your own disc and a legit license. Win7 doesn't seem to be goin away for a long time. It seems like the new xp. Also, the 39$ are for shipping and handling.
