I wish to stay away from Intel. I've had a really bad experience with the last three Intel machines I had. OCing is not a strict no for me. I just don't have enough cooling capacity for over clocking. I might do so in future. 2x4GB or 1x8GB? I was thinking about ZEB U1000 Plus (it'll save me...

What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et cetera.') Ans: The primary task will be playing all the recent games (Dark Souls...

Nope. Sapphire 7870 was priced at ~ 17K (including tax). I bought it recently from there.

Ah, goddamit. Forgot to mention that this account is shared b/w a few users :/ Confused between ATI and nVIDIA cards. Should I go for 660 or 7850/7870? CPU + mobo + RAM ordering either tonight or tomorrow. Thanks for all the help :D

I could only find two types of chips. 1. C11-G03-1N (1 Nos.) 2. 2DM77-D99FJ (8+8 Nos.)

Whoa! Slow down little buddy! Most of us never perform good during +1. Even I scored a 67% in 11th while getting 82 in 10th. So, its nothing much. If you're good at atleast two of P/C/M(Phy./Chem./Maths.) then don't worry, your 12th percentage isn't going anywhere but up. Now, first of all...

check for the pre-POST checks in your BIOS. Also, disable stuff like network/usb boots and 1394 adapter etc.

I think WordWeb[1] doesn't allow Ctrl+C too(for the word definitions) [1]: WordWeb: Free English thesaurus dictionary download

OK, got 2 of them replaced just yesterday. Seems like all 3 were corrupt(some probability :| ). The third one will be replaced within the week. Those two are working fine. At first, they were @1066 MHz. Clocked them to multiplier 12 and tCL etc to 9. Working fine for now. Still, I talked...

aww yeah!!! :) Never tried typing hindi in Xp. And I used to have APS Corporate 2000++ version with me.

It is always good to get a higher rated UPS. A 600 VA one will do a decent job, but considering the possibility of upgrades, 800 VA wouldn't be a bad choice either. Spike guard only if you're unsure of the wiring in the location you're using your system. Otherwise, I don't think you'll be...

lol, congrats. :) i think i'll skip the lecture. :) but you can keep a desktop in college rooms too(most of the colleges allow it) and there is next-to-nil usage of laptops in colleges.

It's a ZION 4GB DDR3 PC1600 Dynamic RAM(that's what is written on it). The webpage mentioned is either out-of-date or something. The nearest result I could find regarding zion was this: Zion RAM - CompareZion RAM Price Online India
