D14 is available for only 5k @mdcomputers. :razz:
NOCTUA D-14

i was thinking about it...
but it looks huge and weighs quite alot 1.2Kg and on an mATX board...
little concerned about that....
but actually i'm thinking something around 3K for the cooler
but if nothing shows up then i can spend a little more cause
i don't want to feel sorry later...

I looked up flipkart at first and it seems that Noctua products are quite overpriced there. Even the cooler i have is overpriced there by 400 Rs. 5k for D14 is a very good deal IMO.

Thats because flipkart include taxes (sales/vat/octroi) & shipping in the price we see. If we buy say from mdcomputer/primeabgb/theitdepot/theitwares, we have to shell out the octroi extra, which veries from state to state and on weight as well in some cases:) and some times shipping charges as well.

So go for flipkart if the price delta is around 300k to 500k (which will cover up other costs such as octroi/shpping). If the delta is more than that then go for other online shops.

Myfeedback is that
1. primeabgb never informs you of shipping details until you call them (they charge shipping extra and octoroi will be above it)
2. theitdepot.com are very lazy in doing shipping... so before placing order call them up to confirm the availablitiy of the item and once order is placed then again call them up for shipping.
Also one more caution... if you are paying by CC/netbanking they charge extra moeny to you.
3. flipkart.com has been always nice to me... they have never delayed a single shipment which I've ordered.
4. I dont have any experiences with mdcomputers.in and theitwares.com but they charge shipping extra as I can see from thier website.

Well i have bought my cooler from theitwares.com. I also bought a PSU from them as well(1 year back maybe). They have replied to every query of mine through mail within 30 mins. I made the payment through credit card for the cooler at around 6:30 PM(approx) and it was shipped at around 8 PM the very same day. Si guess i can vouch for them as my experience with them has been excellent. Flipkart's service is awesome to say the least. The peace of mind you get while shopping at flipkart is not there anywhere else.

@panwala95 For Hyper 212 Evo flipkart will be the best as it is priced correctly. But all the noctua coolers are around 400-900 rs overpriced on flipkart so i guess it won't be such a good idea to buy it from there. I think OP can find most of the products locally in nehru place itself. The problem is with the small cities like mine where its hard to find any high end products and shopkeepers refuse to even recognise the brand name. I am sure if i say "noctua" to any shopkeeper here he would be thinking *what hua :shock:*

but if there is a price diff then i'll go to flipkart

much of the effort
and i'm going there tomorrow ... so i'll find out my self.. :p

Best of luck and as suggested by Mandar note down the prices and then we can workout the best deal possible :)

P.S. If you are not going by Metro then i guess you can add 1000 Rs as fuel expense as well :p

have you bought your rig yet?
no dude...(i'll buy the rig on upcoming Saturday)
i went for price check...
and it was a terrible experience...
very few shop's keepers know about maximus v gene and none knew about noctua... :banghead:
only generic items were available in all the shops....:banghead:

though got few prices and have one person with whom i previously dealt with, who said he can arrange everything(most likely)
and asked me to call him on Tuesday.. looking forward to it... hope that work out...
by the way few things are cheaper at Nehru place but there are few items which i guess needed to be purchased online...
