Re: AMD Phenom II X3 720 2.8GHz AM3 95W Black Edition Proccy + Gigabyte GA-MA785GMT-UD2H + Belkin N1 I'm interested in buying Phenom II x3 720 BE ? How old is the CPU ? Did you keep it OCed ?

I wonder why enthusiast hardware is so overpriced in India!! Comparing with newegg you will find everything to be at least 50% costlier. Desktop is already dead in India except for us enthusiast and gamers and they are trying to kill that too with overpriced hardware. BTW nice RAM and don't...

ebay (hong kong) using paypal. Yes, running furmark for very long time could probably damage it but there are no better stressing utility to check the stability of your card. Also Heaven 2.1 doesn't really stress the card that much. In fact Crysis2 benchmark is more stressing than heaven 2.1.

Replaced stock cooler with Gelid Icy Vision-A......max temps are below 60C with fur mark burn in.

The CPU in AMD APU is far worse than 2nd gen i3. Clock for clock, even quadcore AMD piledriver Fx CPUs are no match for 2nd gen i3 . Making the matter worse unlike Fx CPUs ,APUs don't have L3 cache. So I'm 100% sure the AMD CPU in the first build is worse than intel build. However it is good...

Dude the first one has more graphical prowess as the two GPUs 7640G and 7670M runs together in crossfire to give you more graphics processing capability. The AMD CPU will hardly be a bottleneck even for the crossfire combination. So for gaming choose the first one. No doubt intel cpu is better...

Trashy games do not score 9.3 on IGN. Choices you make during the gameplay has effect on the final outcome, so play wise and be careful because if you die in some specific missions, you won't be asked again and again to restart from the last check point but face entirely different mission...

Crysis 3 alpha MP is a real resource hog. It uses around 1.9GB of VRAM in max details @1080p with motion blur set to medium. Although this is the maximum amount of VRAM usage, not the average. It uses two CPU cores to full 100% and the other two cores hovers around near 33% on my i5 2500. I...

It's on the first floor, shop name is Partha International, but it is bit difficult to find. Have you seen vedant computers? It is on the same street as vedant computers. Going from lenin sarani towards the central avenue , the shop will be on your right. On you way from lenin sarani to central...

Since you clean once in a month, simply use your blower to remove the dust. You could also use ear buds to reach the remote corners.:-D Alternately you might open the heat sink assembly, clean it as much as you want. However to assemble it back you would need some thermal paste. So don't open...

You can easily get that at chadni for around Rs300. I recently bought one.

Really nice price. Looks legit to me. Please post if someone gets it.

1GB 7950 isn't available. In fact it is technically impossible. Reason: 7950 has a 384 bit memory bus. Which means each memory module is accessed via a 32 bit bus and there are 12 such modules to give a net bus width of 32 x 12 = 384bit. Now in general memory modules have the capacity in...

You don't have to ruin your card...You can always monitor your temps , in case it gets really high (excess of 90C) then shut it off. Lower your clocks and rerun. It's not for benchmarking, only for stability testing. After all I don't need it for performance ,but only for the underlying...

Did you go to the dealers directly? e.g Akshay enterprise(at Dalhousie) for XFX, Tirupati (Behind Air India building at chadni) for HIS and Rashi for Asus.

It will cost around Rs 3500-3700 . I bought it from ebay(seller: fp-outlet ). But in my case it was only the reference cooler that was interfering with the HDD cage. The PCB itself was clear. If this is your case then you might give it a shot.

Don't remember when was the last time AMD held the performance crown for single GPU. I mean for last few generations Nvidia had lead over AMD eg GTX 285 > Hd 4890, GTX 480 > Hd 5870, GTX 580 > Hd 6970 but not any more. Awesome work AMD...

Damn right, however 680 came 4 months after 7970. The only annoying thing is that it takes a lot of time to reflect those price cuts in Indian market which is enough to piss off the buyers. Actually 7970's should be priced at where 7950s are right now in India.:-x:-x

Of course it will. You are better off with i3 2100 or even pentium G850. For now, you may overclock it to 3.0Ghz or more , it will help to some extent.

Hey my Asus radeon HD 7970 wouldn't fit in my CM storm case. The extra large and crappy heat-sink was interfereing with my HDD cage. So I changed the reference cooler to gelid icy vision-a and now it fits perfectly. The temps are way lower too. Killed two birds with one stone. You could do the...
