    20-25K Need a decent mobile for smooth experience

    If you're truly out for UI smoothness, I've noticed that iOS, ColorOS (in Realme, OnePlus and Oppo), stock Android and XOS (in Infinix and Tecno) are the best bets. These have extremely good hardware optimization, and can run fine with a semi decent SoC. I'd place MIUI and OneUI at the last for...

    Need a build for software dev + machine learning

    Well, as mentioned a couple of posts above, both Intel and AMD tend to push for max frequencies even above 90 C. This doesn't have any impact on its life. While I'm fine with AIOs, I assume that you might also leave your system on over night sometimes. If this were frequent, I'd trust an air...

    Need a build for software dev + machine learning

    Why not go for something simpler as an i5 13600K or Ryzen 9 7900 build? You have seem to have included a lot of stuff that contribute negligibly for reliability and performance. You could go with any cheap Z790 motherboard, it wouldn't change a thing from the NZXT one you chose. Look into...

    Need a build for software dev + machine learning

    You'll probably want something more reliable, so I'd suggest steering away from AIOs. Go for a good air cooler like the Deepcool AK620 or Noctua NH D15. It's mostly your GPU doing the grunt work anyway, so you don't have to worry about cooling. Swap out the SSD for something like a Samsung 970...

    51-70k Video editing PC

    Looks great, do post pics after the final PC is done as well. As for the CPU connector, it doesn't really matter which route you want to go with. One is enough. Make sure that you're connecting the plug to the correct socket on the PSU and the motherboard.

    [PSU] Gigabyte PSU RMA second time

    650w is fine for any GPU that draws upto 250w (your 6800 XT), since you've got a power efficient CPU as well. Just make sure to undervolt your GPU, you'll get a noticeable drop in power draw without any loss in frames. There are plenty of tutorials for this on YT. The PSUs that you linked are...

    90K+ Time to replace my aging PC

    If it has the sufficient amount of USB ports and M.2 slots (for SSD) that you need, then it's a good motherboard. The motherboards I suggested lack a few USB ports compared to the one you had in your build but its good enough. Both motherboards have 2 M.2 slots and 4 DIMM slots for RAM. The Asus...

    90K+ Time to replace my aging PC

    Swap out the motherboard for a cheaper one like the MSI B550 PRO VDH or Gigabyte B550 DS3H, it has most of the features that the Asus board has. You could go for a cheaper case like the Ant Esports Ice 100 or anything under 4k with 4 pre installed fans and a front mesh.

    15-20K Want new phone with 5g with recording feature

    QC of Redmi/Poco has been terrible in the recent years, yes. The software update shouldn't be a problem. Every recent smartphone from Infinix, Redmi, Moto and Realme will most likely have support up till Android 14, whereas Samsung M14/F14 will get until Android 15 (F34/M34 will probably get...

    51-70k Video editing PC

    Those are the prices in local shops? They look good, go ahead with them. Gigabyte Z790 is a good board. For the case, maybe check if there are options with more pre installed fans in the case, and a mesh in the front. The brand doesn't matter.

    15-20K Want new phone with 5g with recording feature

    If you can live with its 6.8 inch display, then yes, it's a good phone as well. Honestly, for your use case, any cheap 5G phone with good battery life will get the job done. I'd suggest the Samsung M14/F14, Poco M4 or Infinix Hot 30. Samsung has the best UI and battery life, Infinix has the...

    15-20K Want new phone with 5g with recording feature

    Both have their own advantages over each other. Infinix's UI (XOS) is far behind Samsung's OneUi in terms of features, but it's still sufficient for the average user. It's also extremely light, so XOS combined with its powerful chipset will give you a lag free experience. Dimensity 8050 in...

    51-70k Video editing PC

    The Asrock B760 PRO RS actually seems to be the best option under 15k, you could go with that. Other options would be Gigabyte Z790M Aorus Elite (https://www.pcstudio.in/product/gigabyte-z790m-aorus-elite-ax-lga1700-micro-atx-motherboard/) , Asus Prime Z790M (...

    51-70k Video editing PC

    If portable storage is used a lot (which I'm guessing is true), then a motherboard equipped with Thunderbolt is definitely good to have. Premier pro plays better with Intel, so a 13500 is a no brainer. https://pcpricetracker.in/b/s/3fdbd0c6-afa5-47bb-8ff4-808a0e9b9fc8 A cheap motherboard is...

    25-30k 5G Phone with 3.5mm jack and expandable storage

    Iqoo Z7 and Infinix Zero Turbo (sister company of Tecno) are good options under 20k. Or as mentioned above, Poco F5 packs the most performance for a bit above 25k with offers.

    15-20K Phone under 20,000

    My grandfather bought an Infinix Hot 10 Play (or something along those lines) mid of last year, which was under 7k. The only other phone in that price range was Redmi A1 I think, which I had a chance to test out at a nearby retailer. Since I was tasked with setting up his phone, I was genuinely...

    51-70k Need help with Building a budget PC

    Actually, in Windows 10, there'll be negligible difference between a SATA drive (the ones which you have) and an NVMe drive, unless you're moving a lot of files around. You've got a good SSD as a boot drive as well, so I'd recommend buying a new SSD only if you need more space. For the GPU, RTX...

    51-70k Need help with Building a budget PC

    5700X is not required for a gaming build, an i5 12400F or a Ryzen 5 5600 will deliver the same amount of frames. Since you'll be moving to a 1440p display, you'll want to prioritize your GPU. The i5 was on sale for around 10k on flipkart, so you could wait for a while to see if it comes back to...

    90K+ 1440p gaming build

    Yes, a 5600 is alright. 5700x and 5600 are basically the same for gaming, go for the 5700X if you will need those extra 2 cores over the 5600 for productivity tasks. I think its about 6-7k extra as well. An RTX 4070 will bottleneck the Ryzen 5 5600 slightly, but since you're going the ultrawide...

    90K+ Gaming RIG

    And I've run FIFA 23 with 60+fps at low 1080p with an i5 4570 and GTX 1060 3GB. What are you on? There's no way you can convince me other wise that "low end" hardware can't run it, unless you come and pluck my eyes out of my head. Both are good GPUs, get whichever is cheaper.
