I read somewhere, maybe in a TE forum thread, that pcstdio.in is legit. What I'd like to know is what they are like to deal with. Many Indian sites, although not outright scammers and cheaters, are very frustrating to deal with. Some of them list products they don't have without showing that...

Someone has asked to buy my old Asus Strix GTX 970 4GB. It has no issues. I'll clean it thoroughly, repaste it and give him a testing warranty. What would be a price that's fair to both sides?

I'm not a gamer and have only a broad general idea of the GPU market. I just do some research when it's time to buy one, mostly for others. I've long noticed that products by brands like Colorful and Inno3D are usually cheaper than those of the big names like EVGA, Gigabyte, Asus, MSI, Zotac...

Most of my online purchases of computer hardware over the past 15 years or so have been without any major hassle. But it seems the latest two are going to be different. The two shops involved are computechstore.in and mehtabrothers.in. I enquired about these two sites here at TE before ordering...

I'm collecting the components for a new build for a close friend who has always relied on me for his hardware requirements. I've already selected these items - Ryzen 7 9700X MSI Pro B650-VC WiFi II (full ATX) RTX 4070 XPG Core Reactor 750W (80+ Gold) etc. etc. I had my eye on Ant Esports CV100...

The title really says it all. Does anyone know about this site? Their contact address indicates that they are located in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.

My people are one of the numerous minority races in India and make up less than 0.1% of the population. We are all Christians living in our own state in a remote part of the North-East, namely Mizoram. The link below is to a video of the youth choir in my local church performing this Good...

I have recently been unable to access the image hosting site imgur.com. This site is very popular and is used as the default host for linking images to forums like forums.tomshardware.com The problem is not only that I cannot view images linked to imgur.com. I also cannot open the site to...

This question is not about a product but I couldn't find a more appropriate section. Does anyone know anything about bharatecomerce.com in Navi Mumbai? Are they reliable? (Note that there's a single m in the name).

My motherboard has a USB type E header for connection to a front Type C socket but my cabinet doesn't have a Type C front port. Amazon has Type E to Type C connectors but they start from about 1k upwards. I think this is too much. AliExpress has them for as low as $1 (INR 84). If our countries'...

How big is your Windows 10/11 partition? Do you feel it's too small or needlessly big? Would you change the size if/when you get a new drive? I know how much C: space I need for my own use. I don't play games any more and I don't install huge programs in my computer. The 90GB partition I've...

I'm not a power user and the only times I used third-party CPU coolers were when I wanted something quieter than the stock coolers of pre-Ryzen CPUs. I'm now in the process of choosing parts for a new computer for a friend who will use it primarily for video editing with DaVinci Resolve, and...

This comes from having to help someone choose a monitor but perhaps it has more to do with the associated GPU and CPU. The friend is getting an RTX 4070, Ryzen 9 7900, 32GB RAM and a 27-inch monitor, mainly for video editing and playing MS Flight Simulator. In general, a higher resolution and...

I haven't bought a new monitor over the past several years and the market as well as user expectations are always changing. I now have to decide on a 27-inch FHD monitor for a close friend who's always depended on me for his hardware requirements. The primary use of the monitor will be for...

I've bought about a dozen Mi TVs since 2018, both for home and for relatives and friends. Out of those, two of them had the backlight fail - one of them after about 15 months and the other after 4 years. I'd like your help in re-evaluating the reliability of Mi TVs. Is this failure rate...

The title really says it all. Does anyone know about this online shop based in Thane, MH? Are they reliable and good to deal with?

I'm thinking of building a desktop for my wife from old parts that I've accumulated over the years.. I have everything except the monitor. She doesn't need a fancy rig - just something for browsing, youtube, playing music, typing, and the like. From a first quick search, I find that the MSI Pro...

I want to buy an active speaker system and have my eye on Ahuja XPA-3010DP. Online prices range from 24-28k. Moglix is one of those offering the lower prices. I've long heard of Moglix of course but have never ordered anything from them. Are they reliable in terms of efficient service, quick...

I'm looking for a free file manager for Windows that I used to have but lost. Now I can't even remember the name. Here are some of the features that are important for me: - Two-pane side-by-side window (don't remember if it could have more than two panes) - Can show folder sizes, not just...

I don't know if this question belongs in this section, but here goes: I want to revive an old laptop - a 15-year-old Samsung RV509 - for use by someone who doesn't need a fast modern model. It still works fine except that the battery's quite dead of course. Can anyone recommend a brand of...
