    21-30k Should I go for 11th gen or 12th gen intel i5 processor(+motherboard) for upgrading my video editing pc?

    That is true. But we surely don’t need to spend on RTX given the prices are sky high. I have a GTX 1070 strix and for a 10 min 4K video with high bitrate and multiple transitions/effects, PP2020 takes roughly 7 mins to export. I’ve seen CPU and RAM being the bottleneck in my case, not the GPU...

    0-20k Want to buy a Mid Tower case under 10K

    Have a look at Corsair 4000D Airflow or Fractal Meshify C They have ample space for front or top mounted 240mm radiators and are focused on getting better airflow into the cabinet.

    21-30k Should I go for 11th gen or 12th gen intel i5 processor(+motherboard) for upgrading my video editing pc?

    Go for the 12th gen i5, don’t worry about DDR5 coz DDR4 mobos are comparatively cheap and 3600 CL16 DDR4 RAM sticks will most likely suffice your editing reqs.

    90K+ PC buying help for Productivity/Work

    I'm mostly in the same boat as you, and here's my pick: CPU - core i7 12700K Mboard - ASUS TUF Z690 RAM - 32GB DDR4 3600MHz PSU - Corsair 650W Gold (850W or 1000W when you get a GPU) Cooler: Corsair H100i Capellex Case: Corsair 4000D Airflow SSD: WD Black 750 1TB

    Clone only C: partition from one SSD to another

    Will do that :) Just to double confirm, 1. I save the product key before taking apart the old setup 2. Then create a bootable drive and use it to boot on the new hardware and choose which disk I'd want to install windows on If this is correct, can I still use the old setup as is? Or will...

    Clone only C: partition from one SSD to another

    I'm planning for the same setup, coming from an i7 6700K. I currently have a 256GB PNY SSD that's used for boot. Would like to know what is the procedure to: 1. Clone and change the boot drive to an m.2 nvme (since I still have my old PC, better to do it there?) 2. Ensure that windows...

    Share your automations

    Thanks @theironhorse99 and @NT40 for the clarification. Is there a way to link a thermostat to the smart plug so that the dumb geyser shuts off at the required temp? If yes, how to ensure that the thermostat is indeed gets the right values from the geyser?

    Just curious, won’t geysers turn off once water inside has reached certain temperature? Please correct me if I’m wrong :)

    CPU/Mobo i3 12100f and B610 OR i5 12400F and H610

    As others have mentioned already, B660 will mostly be preferred as a future proof option rather than something which improves gaming performance. Regarding the processor, save up for the 12400 as it gives more performance per dollar. Save up and get this.

    90K+ $1000 Gaming Laptop to buy from US. Need suggestions !

    Glad to find another Youtuber! I have a desktop with which I edit and render videos. One tip from my side is that for YouTube, 1080p Full HD resolution video upload is more than enough since most folks watch videos on their cell phones. For me, a 5 minute 4K video with all effects and...

    Monitors 32 inch Monitor Suggestion

    I'm using the LG 32GK650 since few years and its holding up well. Never came across the 32QN600 while hunting for a 32incher. On paper, 32QN600 seems to be excellent value for money.

    Crucial P2 might be a more reliable option IMO if you can do 1TB x 2 for your requirement.

    90K+ $1000 Gaming Laptop to buy from US. Need suggestions !

    +1 for Legion 5 or ASUS Zephyrus G14 for gaming. But they do generate a whole lot of heat and drain battery relatively quickly while editing/rendering 4k sequences. If you're into serious video editing, M1 Macbook Pro 16GB RAM is an efficient workhorse that doesn't need to be plugged in and runs...

    21-30k Need suggestions on Mobo + Case + PSU

    Thank you. I might sell the EVGA 550 gold for a Corsair 850 or 1000 gold then just to future proof the setup

    21-30k Need suggestions on Mobo + Case + PSU

    Thanks for the reply. PSU is in excellent condition. Nvidia rec of 500W is for 1070? I'm not planning to overclock anything on this PSU though. From specs, I saw that i7 12700k and 1070 will consume upto 400w n stock settings.
