    PC Peripherals PC Case producing weird humming sound into headphones.

    Just a wild guess - could it be earthing issue ? Not sure but i think i had noise in headphones many years ago because of that. Adapter did not have earth pin or something like that.

    Your Gaming Backlog/Progress Report!

    Don't spoil anyone. Have to play bioshock series in future. Had started 1 few years back but bounced from it after forced period of not playing.

    Your Gaming Backlog/Progress Report!

    Hope so, after witcher 3 i found RDR 1 very middling. But generally i like rock star games. HDR is quite good so far in RDR2

    Video Amazon FireTV Stick 4k Max not in stock??

    Have you been able to get 4k on desktop ? From what i read, networks don't allow it on desktop at all. Just google '4k on desktop netflix' for example. I do have all hdcp stuff for both hdmi and display port and monitor is 4k. In any case, linux + browser will definitely not work which is...

    Video Amazon FireTV Stick 4k Max not in stock??

    Streaming on pc browser - they don't give higher quality options on desktop to avoid piracy ( doesn't seem to help as its easily available ). Even with netflix, apparently (looking at reddit posts) you only get 1080p max on edge + windows only and 720p elsewhere with no option for 4k. So...

    Video Amazon FireTV Stick 4k Max not in stock??

    yes that's what i meant - amazon owned products - kindle and firestick. firestick 4k max works well - have gotten upto 4k HDR on prime video ( although usually 1080p HDR - might be limited by my own max speed of 50 mbps - not sure) Below is what i bought for ~3.5k after discounts...

    Video Amazon FireTV Stick 4k Max not in stock??

    Amazon refurbished products are good. I had bought kindle earlier and firestick 4k max recently and both seemed like new to me and without any issues + full warranty i think. Happy with it - quality is better vs desktop pc streaming with prime video .

    Budget 0-20k Help me choose a 27" 1440p Monitor

    32 is great and works well at arms length for me too. Now 27 looks small to me. 42 seems impractical at same distance so limit is somewhere in between. 27 1440p - will be fine and good upgrade from 1080p 21. 24 1080p has lower ppi. acer KV v2 is nice.

    Amazon sale buying advice - Air Purifier, Fire TV Stick

    Hello, 1) So i live in Mumbai and get a lot of dust in my room even with windows/door closed most of the time. My room is small about ~150sqfeet. I also get asthma in winters and allergy from time to time. Any recommendation for a simple air purifier that does the job + easy parts availability...

    Budget 90k+ 1440p/4K Gaming PC

    1) If focus is on native + no/light raytracing + 4k then GRE is obvious choice i think. And it looks to be competent in RT too. 12 gb vram is going to be tight, just makes no sense to go with a compromised gpu. 2) upscaling - along with performance we also need to look at image quality. This...

    Budget 90k+ 1440p/4K Gaming PC

    yes so this might depend on games, but anyway from what i remember, at 4k gap increases because of lower bandwidth in 4070. Meaning perhaps not the best option to buy now for 4k specifically. yes GRE seems nice, it has relatively better RT performance vs 7800xt. AMD getting better, but FSR is...

    Budget 90k+ 1440p/4K Gaming PC

    1) 4070 - probably not best choice for 4k as its constraint by bandwidth ( and vram ). It gets slower than 3080 at 4k while being competitive at lower resolution because 3080 has more bandwidth. Still, should be fine for slightly older games / lower settings. 2) DLSS is much better than FSR and...

    Budget 31-40k Trying to go for budget build with RX 5600 XT

    L08 was ok when i tested but i havent dont too much stuff on that card. Probably best to get it officially anyway, so unless he is facing issue with L09, go for that.

    PC Case

    Simply don't connect the argb cables to motherboard and by default there is no fan light. That's what i do, and yeah fan controller is nice. I also put a 140 fan under the gpu, there is lot of space and that does the work of a side fan - probably better as you don't need to disconnect cable...
