    Display for Gaming and Photo-editing

    Hi Guys and Gals. I am looking to replace my old monitor for a new one as it has started to show some technical issues. I would be using it for mostly Single Player Gaming and Semi-professional photo-editing. My current monitor was Viewsonic VX1932 WM which had 900p resolution and 16:10 aspect...

    Backlit keyboard & gaming mouse & Speaker

    Hi. I am a seasoned PC Gamer. Lately due to my job, I don't get much time for it except at night. I prefer playing with all lights turned off, curtains fully drawn. Preferred genres are single-player RPG, FPS, RTS, Adventure, Action-Adventure games, and occasional counter-strike, cross-fire...

    There seems to be a problem. Sapphire HD7950 Vapor-X needs 2 8-pin PCI connectors. Does Seasonic S12II 620 has them?

    New CPU - Budget 35-40K (CPU Only)

    @harshilsharma63 - 10-11K for motherboard. I am already over-budget. In this configuration, I think Motherboard may become a bottleneck. I just want to overclock a little. Not going to test the limits with liquid cooling and stuff. Never heard of bitfenix. Is Bitfenix Shinobi as good as 300R...

    New CPU - Budget 35-40K (CPU Only)

    Hi Guys. Thanks for your help so far. Due to the free-fall of rupees vs dollars and some suggested upgrades my 40K budget has crossed 60K. 1. Should I buy as planned this Saturday or wait for a month? With the US job market showing good results, I fear Rupee may fall further. 2. As both the CPU...

    New CPU - Budget 35-40K (CPU Only)

    With few reviews now available for GTX 760, it seems that GTX 760 and HD 7950 with boost are virtually exchangeable. Will 3 GB memory of 7950 would be of advantageous later over 2 GB of GTX 760? Single monitor setup @ 1080p. Also 7950 will need a bigger cabinet. Which would be better CM 912...

    New CPU - Budget 35-40K (CPU Only)

    I would be buying my PC in July 2nd Week. 1. Today I came to know that PS4 has a GPU equivalent to HD 7870. As the coding on PS4 would be on the machine level without any impeding effects of the Direct X layer, its performance is bound to be better than the corresponding desktop version. For...

    New CPU - Budget 35-40K (CPU Only)

    Thanks again for excellent recommendations but there is some confusion. 1. Processor - Both PS4 and XBox One have 8 core processors. The upcoming games would try to utilize the 8 cores. So would it be better to go for a 8 core processoe (AMD FX 8350) or Core i5 3470, whose benchmark...

    New CPU - Budget 35-40K (CPU Only)

    I need to upgrade from my beloved 6-year old rig with so that I could do serious gaming for the next 3 years. My current can still run Crysis 2 at high(with 2x medium shadows and anti-aliasing) but is showing its age with Hitman-Absolution and newer games. I expect my new rig would be a...
