Thanks. Looks like this is a good buy: TP-LINK 3G/3.7G Wireless N Router | Router | Flipkart.com

Hi, I have shifted my house and in the new place, there is no option for wired connectivity. I am planning to get an Airtel 3G datacard and need to get a 3G router. Looking at the list here...

Get an IPS panel. If you can extend to 15k, I would suggest Dell U2312HM. Should be ok for FPS.

I am also planning to buy the same. This vendor is cheaper if you are in bangalore. "UPS APC 1000VA BR1000G-IN with Autoshutdown software " @ iTerials If you are not planning to use the software feature, better get BR1100CI-IN which is much cheaper. ~jain

Per core performance of Intel i5 processors are much better than FX 8150. Most of the games will use only single core. So, Intel is better for gaming. But at the same time, often games are bottlenecked by GPU than CPU. I dont have any stats, but I have read that fx8150 will not bottleneck even...

Your 1333MHz corsair is also showing as 800MHz? If it is showing corsair-1333 as 666 and corsair-1600 as 800, then nothing to worry. 666 and 800 are actual clock speeds.

I think I can buy the items in future upgrade now itself and go for flipkart's 3 months EMI. That way, I can take opt for 970 chipset based motherboard. So I need suggestions on these: Speakers: Creative Inspire T3130 or any good 2.1 ~2.4k Monitor: AOC I2251FW is a cheap IPS panel. Is it...

Good one. Let me know if it is better to relax the budget for a cool and quiet run for many years (in case there are better cabinets). I am confused about the motherboard now. Lemme think.

Re: Feedback req - PC for virtualization and casual gaming Valid point. Thank you. Yes. Was reading some more benchmarks yesterday and realized that non-K Ivy Bridge is not that efficient. Power Consumption And Max. Temperature : Core i5-3570K, -3550, -3550S, And -3570T: Ivy Bridge...

TDP of FX is 125w. Intel IB is 77w. Is that not a big difference? That is the only thing stopping me. Also, please suggest me a good mobo for FX. I need usb 3.0, on-board graphics and RAID. Only the 9 series chipsets support DDR3-1600 and more. And they are costly. How do you compare DDR3-1333...

My requirements are different from Java requirements. AFAIK, Java just need a lot of memory and good enough CPU. For me, more CPU, the better. Because, they are going to be divided among the VMs. CM 361 has a lot of options for additional fans. 3rd party CPU coolers may not fit. I havent checked...

^^^ Please read my answer to Qn.11. I have already a config in mind and I need feedback and suggestions on alternatives. Please let me know why you dont recommend what I have already opted to buy. I will edit the topic to "feedback" instead of "suggest".

I have decided to go with a desktop because I dont need the portability and I guess the maintenance/upgrades will be cheaper in the future.

Feedback req - PC for virtualization and casual gaming 1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? Ans: Mainly, Virtualization. This is gonna be a lab for multiple server OSes, softwares etc inside VMs. I will be dual booting with Windows for...

I am almost sure that it has a 120mm fan on top. :-) Check the reviews and flipkart page. eg: Cooler Master Elite 361 | Cabinet | Flipkart.com Cooler Master Releases Elite 361 PC Case | Hardware Secrets
