    No display after installing new Corsair VS550 PSU

    I think the PSU's faulty. I tried connecting my DVD drive with it and it didn't boot at the first try. It takes atleast 2-3 presses from the power button to get it started, so I think that the PSU isn't delivering the proper power. I got mine from flipkart too, about 3 days back so I'll start...

    No display after installing new Corsair VS550 PSU

    I changed my current PSU (Cooler Master RS600) to a new Corsair VS550 but when I switch on the machine, the HDD, the fans and the processors turn on, but there's no display. The display works fine on the older, CM PSU. The config: Processor: Intel Core i5 2400 Motherboard: Gigabyte...

    Looking to buy a new PSU for PC with R6850 card.

    I'm looking to replace my current PSU (which in all probability is the reason why the monitor shows 'No Signal' when the card is plugged in, and works without it). My current setup: CPU: Intel i5 2400 Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H61M-D2-B3 HDD: Seagate 500GB RAM: Corsair Vengeance 4GBx1 GPU...

    How to restore/fix underclocked HD6850; PC won't boot or go past login screen.

    Hmmph... this is going to be awful. This is the second time this mobo has faultered, and it's not even two years. The first time I got it back from repairs, Gigabyte's CC called me up to check what my experience with their new mobo was. @sumonpathak, would you by any chance know how much (the...

    How to restore/fix underclocked HD6850; PC won't boot or go past login screen.

    An update. Removed the card, and the PC ran fine for about 30 minutes, froze and rebooted. I think at this time it'd also be important for me to list the specs, so here they are: CPU: Intel i5 2400 Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H61M-D2-B3 HDD: Seagate 500GB RAM: Corsair Vengeance 4GBx1 GPU...

    How to restore/fix underclocked HD6850; PC won't boot or go past login screen.

    I have the MSI HD6850 card, bought last June. I've been using it since then, no major problems, most games run on medium/high settings fine. About a week back, some games started to freeze between gameplay, and then after a few days, Win7 would hang whenever I'd be using it, games running or...

    Sub 40K rig for casual gaming and no upgrades for a few years

    Done & done. Called up SMC to arrange a visit to their Nehru Place shop with this configuration. Just one last question :) I know SMC are reputed here and on the web too, should I get it assembled from them? No problems there, right?

    Is the stock cooler/fan on the MSI R6850 Cyclone Power Edition enough, or should I buy an extra fan/cooler for it?

    They don't have the GS600 listed on their website, might be in stock at their shop in Nehru Place, dunno... I'll jot down a few of these and take them with me. Plus I'm leaving in about 30 mins to get this baby assembled today!

    Thanks guys, I looked up the i5 v/s 955 benchmarks on the web and the i5 2400 is the better buy indeed. I'll get the Corsair PSU, and a APC UPS.

    Reliable laptop repair in Nehru Place?

    Thanks phil2097, I'll take a look at some of the shops near CTC... incidentally I looked up DDR2 RAMs at SMC's website, and they still sell some. They only have the 1GB @ 667MHz, I was looking for a 2GB stick, guess they don't have it anymore.

    Building a budget gaming PC, suggestions needed

    @Cilus: I don't have a motherboard choice nailed down as of now, that is probably the grayest of all areas... will definitely look at Gigabyte 880GA UD2H as you said. PSU should now be one of either Corsair/Gigabyte as mentioned by ico... And the reason I chose the Phenom processor is because...
