i have a few more queries,

 

1) While testing, i removed the cmos batery and resetted the bios, now the thing is i dont remember any of my bios settings, now if i connect everything back, will my windows boot up from the default settings and everything will be like it was before or do i need to make some changes in the bios setings? ( i never modified my bios since i got it nither did i do any kind of overclocking)

 

2) When should one apply a new coat of thermal paste?, i removed the cpu from its socket, now do i have to reapply the thermal paste again?

 

3) plz suggest a cheep and good thermal paste to buy.

 

thanks a lot.

Yes don't worry, it detects default settings by itself.

paste?, i removed the cpu from its socket, now do i have to reapply the thermal paste again?

 

You don't, though after a while it is recommended you replace your paste but it is not necessary, so don't bother yourself if your PC was working fine before.

 

3) plz suggest a cheep and good thermal paste to buy.

 

Try tuniq tx-3 or Arctic silver 5

 

thanks a lot.

Hi Guys,

 

I need to buy a laptop with max budget of 65 K, i have short listed Toshiba and HP I don't have any brand loyalty , just need a sturdy laptop with good service and decent gaming capabilities as well.

 

Will be using this machine for the next 3 years, need your suggestions\ recommendation for any other brand , also would like some kind of complete protection cover for 3 years as well any recommendation in that department would be welcome

From my experience the most sturdy laptops are the business line of laptops from HP / Dell / Lenovo.

 

That said, my recommendation is that you are better off waiting for a month because both Intel and AMD have released their next gen chips and they will soon start showing up (infact many laptops with the new intel ivy bridge chips have been announced).

 

If you want to have decent gaming and decent cpu performance AMD Trinity chips seem most promising. Intel has better cpu performance and battery life. Just wait for a couple of weeks and then you will have a lot of choices.

My PSU is 600w...and have a 21 inch LCD monitor. Could you guys suggest some good tested\used brands and model no.s if any which can give me backup for 10-15 mins atleast.

 

 

Thanks in advance...

Use APC UPS...and nothing more to say..!!!!!!!
