Y r u against? I heard XFX is the best brand in GPU.

It is the best brand alright, but some cards overheat insanely... My 8600GT runs at about 82C under load and i cant overclock it.
One of our forum member's(sagargv) card used to run at more than 95C under load. And he got it replaced.

Like i said before, you can buy XFX 8600GT(the older models) if you want to use your card as an electric stove

@mods: please make this thread a sticky.

I agree. No issues for me as well for MS k/b and mouse. Sometimes I feel, "Chalo, Kuch toh accha kaam kiya MS ne"

For this phone, my friends in Bangalore are not facing any issues at all. Superb quality.

For the same phone, my uncle and my friends in Andhra are facing lot of issues like frequent hang up etc.

Intex lan cards> got 4 times reploaced within 1 year

Creative T6060 : powerful, but only on bass....does creative dun know what treble is!!!!!!!!
Via chipset mobos> especially the IGP..the S3 uniocrome sux..even CS 1.6 @ 800*600 lags like hell


MS basic optical mice buttons feels clumsy after a few months..the buttons just loses its feedback..

 

[Gigacore]

i dont know why you guys are blaming MS mouse. I think you guys have damaged it by making angry clicks after ur windows stopped responding. And one thing is for sure, if you use this mouse for gaming, then this sucks. Besides it gets damaged as well. Since i'm not a gamer, I've no issues

 

[ajaybc]

Logitech Internet Pro Keyboard mouse combo.It says it is made for windows Vista and doesnt even have a Vista driver yet.

 

[dOm1naTOr]

ya, it was subjected to heavy torture during games. And we also added weights on it by fixing weights like metal nuts nd bolts inside it. It works gud with weights, but the buttons lose its tactile feel soon.
