    41-50k Budget 50k gaming pc

    I got together the exact same build last year except for GPU : R9 280x Cabinet : Cooler Master HAFXB PSU : Corsair VS650 for the psu you have selected I'd recommend you to try get the GTX960 as it has much lower TDP than the 270x. And also make sure you buy the WD blue as most of the local...

    Nirbhaya documentary: Why Javed Akhtar, Anu Aga's views differ completely

    Why don't you try to understand that this is about us. This is about what we are doing to our women. What happens elsewhere, what everybody else thinks about us is not a matter of concern now. How is hiding a fact of our own society going to hamper the already declining society? Yes, I worry...

    ACT new connection in Bangalore

    I too had an extremely unpleasant experience with ACT in koramangala 4th block, bangalore. They took a month to provide the connection (which was done by pulling wires over adjacent buildings). And then it lasted for 1 hour or so before going dead and was never fixed for another month. After...

    yes. I agree. The QTEs and he entire layout shows it's a lazy console port. But for someone who finds greek mythology fascinating this is worth a runthrough.

    Ryse Son of Rome PC release date and system requirements revealed

    Has anyone here played Ryse on PC? I started playing last evening and it is surprisingly good. Looks stunning, brilliant voice acting and absolutely amazing environment design. THough the gameplay seems like something that'd get repetitive soon, initial impression was really good.

    21-30k urgent need advice for buying pc

    i5 4460 is a haswell refresh CPU. It is clocked 100MHz higher and except for that the two processors are near identical. You wont see any visible differences between the two. Pick whichever you find cheaper. Instead of the Gigabyte board mentioned by me I'd recommend you to look at B85M-D3H. It...

    ACT Fibernet - How to lose a customer within a day?

    Hi Praveen, I'd really recommend you to stay away from ACT. At least at this point of time they are not reliable at all. Theres so much more to the story explained by me. I'm moving back to Airtel. They are the most reliable of the lot, if not affordable.

Now that I was moving back to koramangala I decided to give them a shot again. And here's what happened 1. Called ACT about 15 days in advance to check the...

    41-50k Need A New PC config to Watch HD Movies on 46inch TV

    Playing HD content on 46inch TV doesnt need any more power than playing the same content on a smaller screen. I mean the screen size is not a matter of concern but the content you are playing is. I dont think you need to spend this much just for HD playback, 24x7 downloading and occasional...

    Suggest a gaming mouse (3k budget)

    If looking for a wireless mouse then I'd highly recommend Logitech G602. Only down side is that I am ambidextrous and its a right handed mouse.

    Graphic Cards 6870---->280 (not X) expert advice?

    My point was 1. Upgrading the GPU might not give the same amount of fps bump that the GPU is actually capable of, if there is a CPU bottleneck 2. Day by day as CPU architectures are improving developers are using more and more CPU computes in games. Sheer clock speed doesn't dictate performance...

    Graphic Cards Advice for Graphics Card for 15-16K Max

    I'd advise to avoid the sapphire dual-x cards. They are built weak in a relative sense. But 270x does indeed fit your requirement perfectly

    I have recently built a i5 4440 + 8GB DDR3 + 280x on a H85 board. And feel the CPU is somewhat a bottleneck. I'd recommend you to upgrade CPU + MB + RAM before upgrading the GPU.
