I am considering buying a new gaming PC. It will have an i5 and a single graphics card? No overclocking of either the graphics card or the processor. So, is a qulaity PSU like the Seasonic 520W sufficient for such a rig, for any single graphics card? In the future, if I get a beast graphics card...

Hi, I am finally looking to junk my old mobile and get a smartphone, albeit a cheap one. A lot of shops are giving discounts on mobiles right now. I want the mobile for the following uses, with the first one being the most important: 1. Music. I prefer listening to music without using...

Okay, so just a couple of days back, I had a fit of carelessness and spilled some water over my cabinet while the PC was running. The PC immediately shut down, so I rushed it to a nearby shop. Luckily for me, the PSU, motherboard, ram and processor seem to be working fine. But the gfx card on...

I am having a strange problem when playing a few games - when the game is running, sound randomly disappears completely. This is system wide ie no sound anywhere after that. Only a system restart fixes this. LoTR online is the one suffering from this the most. I thought my 1 year old drivers...

Which ISP in Delhi is likely to give me the best ping for online gaming on servers overseas. I am not looking for 50-150 ms pings, which seem impossible at present. I am into MMOs (enjoying World of Warcraft at present ) and there I only need to have a ping of 150-300. Unfortunately, even...

My uncle wants to buy a new PC for surfing, watching movies and playing some basic games. He was adamant on buying an i5 earlier but now seems to be willing to listen to reason and let go of that idea. Can you please suggest a PC for him keeping in mind the following things: Budget is...

Well, Indian prices are low and you are also saved the headache of downloading 4-6GB of the game, especially with my 256kbps connection. Until now, to buy games online I have used Steam and Impulse, mostly for games that were 50%-90% off or for games which I simply could not get in any shop...

Hi! I asked this same question a few months ago and was told to wait until the i5 came here. Well, now it is here and I want to get rid of my old noisy PC :) I bought a GTS 250 512MB and CoolerMaster Extreme 600W a few months ago and now I am upgrading my system, a 4 year old P4 based. I will...

Hi, I bought (as per suggestions here :) ) a GTS 250 512MB and CoolerMaster Extreme 600W about a month ago and now I am upgrading my system, a 4 year old P4 based. I will mainly use it for gaming and image processing. My current PC can't even give me 100 fps in CS and I won't use my gfx card...
