All Calcuttans in Digit

[bukaida]

Please suggest a decent mp3 player within 6k. Should I go for iPod nano?I didn't like the sound of it as my SE w810i mobile produces much better quality sound than that.Atleast that quality of sound is required.TSonic models available in GC AVenue(supreme, eastern logica etc shop)are not also upto the mark.Most of them lack the bass effect.Creative players are also hopeless.I am totaly cofused.Please help(Pagla hoye gelam bhai,ei gorome mp3 player khujte giye).

Thanks for your suggestion..but can u please clarify whether Antec Basiq is available in Kolkata and if so any dealer other than Alfatech who is stocking it (the guy charges really sky high prices!!!!)

And PowerSafe dealers in Kolkata if any you happen to know???

For antec I only know Alfatech and don't have any idea about powersafe but one can always search a little.

Help me out again people..
Is there any other shop other than Lalani who sell Western Digital Drives??
Last Saturday I made my trip to Chandni Chowk for buying an SMPS and a 400GB Hard Disk. Went directly to Lalani and asked the guys whether they had a 400GB SATA 3Gb/s SATA drive in stock.The sales person confidently said they had in stock. I asked again and was given a positive answer. After a bit of bargaining he agreed to give me the drive for 4500+VAT. I asked to show him the drive. After a long time of waiting (read 20 mins) i was handed a 40 GB WD drive !!!! Pointed it out and immediately came out a 400GB Drive from under the counter (bastards!!!). Thorough inspection of the drive revealed that it was manufactured on 16 Feb 2006 and was imported by Lalani in September 2006. Isn't Lalani the sole distributer/dealer of the WD Drives?? Whatever after another set of arguing with the sales person i got to know that that's the latest they have got in stock. Still not convinced i did another set of inspection and saw that the model number was WD4000KD which is in effect a SATA I 1.5Gb/s hard disk which has long been discontinued by WD. The model number for the same size and buffer for SATA 3Gb/s when WD4000KD was released was WD4000KS and now marketed as WD4000AAKS.

If this is the condition of the dealer wonder what's going to happen for Kolkata people who want bigger drives but not as big as 500GB or 750GB ??

Btw has anyone been to the Classic Computers shop on N.S.Bose Road?? They are the stockers for Cooler Master products.Anyone got SMPS from that shop?? If yes how is it working?? If not and you got it from some other shop then can you please give the details ???

@john_the_ultimate

thnx bro !!!

any idea where in Kolkata I might get ThermalRight 120 ?? i tried my luck, but my vendor wants able to arrenge that for me as Cooler Master is 2nd choice for me !!!

 

[john_the_ultimate]

No thermalright in kolkata best you could get is coolermaster eclispse or ASUS Silent Knight, Arctic square (all copper cpu cooler) from Rashi. But still you have to order and wait for few days. Better get it ultra 120 from PRIME ABGB mumbai through courier. And if you r getting it from mumbai then get the extreme version of ultra 120 *www.sidewindercomputers.com/thulex.html
As for Classic computer................if the stuff came with their current shipment then you will get it or else you will have to wait for the next shipment, which could be in 1-2 months time.
I had to face this situation while buying Coolermaster CoolVIVA pro GPU cooler.

Else go to ebay and you have these option *search.ebay.in/search/search.dll?from=R40&_trksid=m37&satitle=thermalright&category0=

As far Classic Computers is concerned i had visited their shop on the same day i went to look for the Hard Drive. Right now they are out of stock of the Extreme Power sereis SMPS, but do have in stock a iGreen 500W (it'w way costlier than an Extreme Power).The shop owner said me that he would be getting re-stocked by the end of this week and would call me back to confirm it.

As regards the Whole of G.C.Avenue they seem to have a definite fear for 500W SMPS.They dont seem to stock those and when asked te maximum they have in stock is a 400W. One shop even showed me a 500W Frontec when i asked for powersafe.And ask about Antec they all say yes, then call up Alfatech to get the prices, then say that the True Power Trio 650W will cost you 9800+VAT. You go individually to Alfatech (the sole dealer of a very few Antec products in Kolkata) and ask for the same thing you get a price quoatation of 9900+VAT(100 bucks increased for walking that far and asking personally). As i had posted earlier the same can be purchased from ITDepot at 8155 inclusive of all taxes and shipping.

It seems that people buying computers are either skipping on the SMPS to reduce cost or else are truly ignorant of the fact that a Rock Solid SMPS(yes it means investing a little more) translates to a more stable and a better performing machine. Well i can go on ranting but well it will have no effects.

Btw guys tell me a shop which can give me a 400GB SATA 3Gb/s Hard Drive with 16/8MB buffer any company (no samsung please) at a compititive price..i need it urgently..pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee .........

@rb_kaustuv
Why don't you buy CORSAIR HX 520W for around 5.5k (check with Tirupathi Enterprises for the price) . Its an excellent PSU and that too modular (detachable cables).

Thanks buddy for the suggestion..but don't you think that when i can get a CoolerMaster 600W SMPS for 4K+VAT why should i buy a Corsair 520W SMPS for 5.5K+VAt ??
