    Can a government levy charge on bank account without your approval?

    Germany is smart enough to continue the Euro. As long as the currency stays depressed, German exporters stand to stay competitive, to the pain of most bankrupt countries. Of course it keeps business costs low and economic policy firmly with them. Of course the cost of any country leaving will...

    Asus Xonar sound cards - DG,DX and STX

    DGX will be useful when you upgrade your PC and don't get backward compatibility wrt slots. Or else, if you use a micro - ATX board with a GPU, chances are that the PCI and PCIe slots will be close to each other, and having a DGX will be helpful in such a case

    Newbie to Sound cards - suggestions required for sound card upto 3k

    Hi, Thanks. The sound on is definitely improved compared to the Realtek Onboard. However I'm using a cheap non-branded headphone/mic set, so I can feel that the sound detail is slightly missing, but then that can be a headphone issue more than that of the card! Will update when I lay my hands on...

    Thanks for the suggestion, but I'll buy a new PC in a while, so won't need the extender!

Just thought of warning anyone looking to buy this card and used an micro ATX mobo with a...

    Graphic Cards Suggest Best Graphic Card Under 8K

    Having used the Sapphire HD 7750 on my i3 PC with a Gigabyte Mobo, I can heavily vouch for it. Its really good for its price, and plays every game thrown at it with no issues! I've even play NFS on full HD on my TV and it works really well with that too! For 7k, its surely a good deal. I don't...

    Newbie to Sound cards - suggestions required for sound card upto 3k

    Not planning a high end machine! Planned motherboard is Gigabyte B75M ( or another mobo based on the B75 series) so that's why looking at the sound card purchase. Upto Rs. 5000, 2.1 speakers. Basically I'm building my hardware bit by bit. And the discussion of the veterans here is confusing me :P
