Man up and liquid cool that sucker! ;) EK waterblocks FTW! Jokes aside, get a shroud from a dead card, replaced the TIM, tighten it up and you're good to go.

R9 280 all the way!

unfortunately for us early birds (Will be buying a 970 later this year), nVidia won't cut prices until mid next year or until AMD outperforms it (likely!). And to add insult to the (Rs 30k) injury, it's only Rs20,000 in Europe and North America. And buying on newegg fetches 7-8k in taxes and...

Go for the Maxwell. It is on pre order on mdcomputers.com, and nVidia is being coy about the release date again. It will cost ~30k, which means it will be nigh impossible to assemble your rig within budget unless you 'source' a few components. Go for a monitor of about 20-21in and increase your...

Praises be to our benevolent overlord nVidia for bestowing upon us their grace! A GTX 970 can get <50 FPS on W_D, and that too while running off of a 500w PSU! Ridiculous! Your thoughts, fellow green people?

Get a refurbished or second hand mother board. It will save you rupees if you don't want to upgrade. Also, go for an Asus model. I've been using one for almost 8 years now. It now powers my HTPC.

I did some research and came up with this. Can you guys cut some money down? I don't wanna downgrade the GPU. I will also be swapping the cooler with either a Corsair H100i or a custom solution. And Asus Motherboard preferred. I will be overclocking. AMD FX-6300 Processor + ASUS Motherboard...

Mobile Maxwell Summary : boostAnandTech | NVIDIA Pretty neat, IMO. also, either NVIDIA is a lying little runt, or we in for one hell of a performance upgrade in laptops. Buckle up, Jimbo! Yeehaw! :horse:

Hey whatthe frak, what happened to your black edition? Did you get rid of the torrent problem?

Well I decided that it was more trouble than it was worth, hence will be buying a laptop in the stead. *grumbles* Thanks for nothing. Mods feel free close thread.

27 gigs do take time to check, esp. if you're using uTorrent, which is made as a lightweight client, not the most efficient one. change your client, and you will be fine. Hope this helps. :thumbs: Toodles!

RAM's fine; All 2 gigs of it. I think it's the motherboard or SMPS. The thing is, I don't wanna be electrocuted, and I don't wanna further screw up the motherboard. So no homebrew solutions. Anyone else know anything?

I have a 7 year old HCL PC (Asus P5VD2-VM, Intel Celeron D 3.33GHz (Some geriatric model), 2GBs of Aftermarket RAM, Radeon HD 5450 1GB 650MHz GPU) Which has been giving me Grief. It boots into Windows 8 desktop, then explorer.exe spikes in activity and everything but the cursor freezes. No BSoD...

On the contrary, my dear sir, I have already a basic browser with an editor pane to display "text/(as in)html" basic functions like go button, back and forward button and the ability to actually browse the 'net built. now, all I need is to get it to somehow render the webpages normally (it has...

i hate to say this but I cannot code in csharp. I know this is a major pain in the butt, but what do I do?? Also, JAVA!
