    15-20K Phone under 20,000

    If you can extend your budget above 20k, then Poco X5 Pro is a great phone and you can definitely go ahead with it. QC and rep are Poco's only flaws now, but nothing has been reported for this phone for now at least. For under 20k, the above 4 would be my recommendations (you could shortlist F23...

    15-20K Phone under 20,000

    Realme mobiles generally dont have good custom ROM support. You're best bet for this is to go for a used phone that already has good support or spend slightly more for the Poco X5 Pro (which recently got a LineageOS build). Consider a used Poco X4 Pro maybe. Samsung F23 and M14 are good options...

    Restoring a 2 decade old PC

    810%? Lol ok. But why though, any incompatibility issues or is it because of the age? Will keep you guys posted, Im a little wrapped for the next 2 days, so will try to set it up asap. Ahh, I was wondering why it had 2 notches instead of the traditional 1 notch. It came with a networking card...

    Restoring a 2 decade old PC

    Well, I really didn't expect to have this in my hands but here it is. Crazy what a visit to my native's place can uncover. I was rummaging around in the cupboard and found a 23 yr old OEM PC (approx), and the ancient machine had quite some things to play around with. Not sure what the OEM is...

    21-30k Basic pc

    There's barely any any difference between Zen 3 and Alder Lake for OP's needs. Going the Intel route will add more to the PC cost.

    90K+ Need a new gaming PC

    That HP pre built actually looks decent, but pre builts often include terrible parts to provide the bare minimum of a PC to buyers. Custom is definitely the way to go, you could also enlist the help of shops to build it for you. Instead of 13400F, you could go with the i5 12400F or ryzen 5...

    15-20K Need replacement for Poco F1

    Samsung already has good software processing of images, so gcam won't be a big upgrade over stock camera. There doesn't seem to be any official gcam port for F23, but you could try this - https://gcamstore.com/samsung-f23-5g-gcam-port/

    21-30k Basic pc

    Avoid the Gigabyte PSU, this one is better- https://www.amazon.in/Cooler-Master-Bronze-Certified-Non-Modular/dp/B08GTF8224/ref=sr_1_1?crid=30R93GL7PIDUE&keywords=coolermaster+450w&qid=1684845754&sprefix=Coolermaster+45,aps,482&sr=8-1 Yes, it's about 600 more, but will give you a better peace of...

    21-30k Basic pc

    Amazon isn't the best place to buy PC components, I would recommend looking into bigger names like MD and Vedant Computers to get the lowest prices. Consider this as a starting point - https://pcpricetracker.in/b/s/a8c0d705-b2a1-4867-9dbc-b90ce14ae2cc Or this for an AMD build. -...

    15-20K Need replacement for Poco F1

    G62 has an IPS display, so it won't be a noticeable upgrade over Poco F1, other than the 120hz refresh rate. 108MP is more of a gimmick. You'll get better details and slightly sharper images over normal 50MP cameras, but that's about it. It still has good cams no doubt, but there's a lot more...

    15-20K Need replacement for Poco F1

    Yeah, there's barely any difference between A12 and A13 stock for the normal user. I doubt there'll be much offers until next month or so. I'd suggest the G62, since that'll offer the easiest setup experience, and install the latest gcam apk for it, though you might have to play around with a...

    15-20K Need replacement for Poco F1

    There are some apks for gcam ports for the G62, but I couldn't find any comparison with stock and gcam. For G71 though, there are good improvements over stock app using gcam - . I'm not sure if it will completely sort out Moto's camera shortcomings, but it will definitely improve on some issues...

    15-20K Need replacement for Poco F1

    Poco X4's bloatware can easily be removed via XDA's platform tools- https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/ There are some guides in YT for this as well. Other than unoptimisation, MIUI actually offers more features than stock android, plus you get the...

    51-70k Looking for a new GPU: Considering All Options from RX 6800 and Up.

    The system you have now could be a starting point for upgrade. For example, any 6 core CPU from 2020/21 will be able to keep up with most of the current gen GPU. You'll need at least a 650w PSU as well. So it would be a good idea to list your complete system specs. I would recommend the RX 6800...

    51-70k Need Help building a PC

    Yeah, 12/13th gen + DDR4 would probably be your safest bet now. I'm not sure if there were any developments regarding AM5 and Linux, so IMO avoid AMD for now. For the PSU, a higher end PSU would be beneficial, but the only thing that would set it apart from the 80+ Bronze units would be the...

    Monitors Samsung Odyssey G3 or Gigabyte G24F 2 or something else? Both 24inches.

    1080p 24 inch is fine, even for programming. Cheapest 1440p 144hz goes around 20k, even after discount.

    51-70k Need Help building a PC

    Future proof and performance for what though? I installed Linux on a potato dual core laptop with no HT, and that runs well, so your current rig is really all you need. Or you can buy a laptop for 50k and enjoy the portability you get with, though you can't rely on the battery for long. 16GB +...

    71-90K 4k Gaming PC for LG OLED C1

    And OP can also sell his current motherboard, CPU and memory for around 20k. Add cooler cost to the 5800X3D as well, but if OP already has one, that's fine. 7600 + DDR5 + B650 won't cost more than 40k. Sure, it's a bit more hassle, but spending 30k on a previous gen CPU seems pointless now...

    71-90K 4k Gaming PC for LG OLED C1

    IMO, if you're considering 5800X3D, consider any Zen 4 CPU instead. 30k for 5800X3D is overpriced, and anything like a Ryzen 5 7600 will be on par with it. Plus, it gives you a newer platform and DDR5.

    Monitors Samsung Odyssey G3 or Gigabyte G24F 2 or something else? Both 24inches.

    For gaming, from what I've noticed, IPS would be a much better bet than VA. Consider the LG 24GN650 as well, its got just as good colour coverage, and is a 144hz IPS panel. I don't think you can expect much under 15k from monitors, so anything with an IPS panel will work just fine. HDR doesn't...
