    PC Peripherals Suggestion for new PSU

    Dude, it is always wise to spend more money on PSU+cabinet more than on CPU. Antec 450W is available in less than 3K.

    Why not Lenovo A6000 or Yu Yureka. at 5.5" yureka is much lighter and smaller, though I have not used it personally. I have used Android One from Karbonn and Spice and both are damn good. They never hang, you get instant GPS lock of your position and great call quality. They cost you around...

    C/C++ IDE with Predictive Text (like Microsoft Visual Studio "Intellisense")?

    C/C++ IDE with Predictive Text (like Microsoft Visual Studio "Intellisense")?

    C/C++ IDE with Predictive Text (like Microsoft Visual Studio "Intellisense")?

    Well, you can use Code::Blocks or Eclipse but the real question you need to ask yourself is why you want to have predictive text when you are writing C/C++ code ? Why not without predictive text ?

    Less than 10K CDMA Phone around 5k

    If you are making only phone calls then get either Samsung DigiRap (if you can find) or Samsung SCH-B339. Both are solid phones with very good signal strength and call quality. Don't get SCH-B229 because it has signal strength issues.
