You can check out flipkart, snapdeal and Amazon. For thermal paste, this is the best option online. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny007 Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Hi. I have an i3 desktop probably the 1st or 2nd gen.. Everything is fine.. But from the day i built it, when i try to boot the pc, the fans run, mobo lights up and sounds as if the processor is running but nothing on the screen.. Then the sound n light in mobo will stop and then again light up and fans will run and the system will boot without problem.. This was happening for around 2yrs.. Never cared coz want an issue for me.. But past 2 days, the time taken to boot has increased i.e around 2 minutes until i see w7 logo.. What should i do/check?

ALPHA17 Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 ^ Are you using any anti-virus and anti-malware suite? Use CCleaner to clean up temporary files that might be dragging your performance down. Defraggler to defragment your drives, the long method not the quick defrag. Apart from that check on your hard-drives health by using this application. If this does not fix your system, it might be some other component damaged or it is just showing its age now.

hussain Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Friends Looking for a laptop for video editing 40k budget suggestions?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALPHA17 Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 ^ Look at the following options @flipkart. Anything below a Core i7 is really crippling in performance but if they are adamant about the budget restrictions, check the following, @flipkart.

devil_angel Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 So, I checked with the help of a HDMI cable, and it seems like it's the monitor that's dying with the blue line. It's not anything special. A Samsung 20 incher that's 5 years old. Is it worth looking into (to fix it)? My guess is it's to do with the terminal points or one of the contact points. It's just one vertical line though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALPHA17 Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 ^ I do not think it is worth investing a lot here, just get on with times and get a new monitor with DisplayPort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomShade Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 (edited) Hey Alpha is Dell U2412M Good for multiplayer gaming? (Dota2,Starcraft 2 and BF4 mainly) It has a response time of 8ms Will it cause screen tearing or anything of that sort?

ALPHA17 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 ^ Look for something better than that, at-least 5ms and a TN panel is good for gaming. Screen tearing comes up with low refresh rates or when your frame-rate fails to sync up with the monitors refresh rate, this is not dictated by the same.

But i can use V-sync right?I need this monitor for color correction for my 3D model renders as you may know colors on TN panel monitors are not up to the mark Sent from my Asus Zenfone 5 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALPHA17 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 ^ Yes, although V-Sync has its own issues. Yes, I know that the colour accuracy of TN panels is not good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VR46 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) Hi alpha, My Pc again refused to boot up yesterday, so i opened the case and checked motherboard connection. i pressed 4-pin main connector hard and pc started . now when i switched on pc today but today also pc did not start. so i again tried to press motherboard connection harder but today it did not started. now i accidently removed 4-pin connector to main board and pc started . so is 4-pin connector (20pin + 4pin) to motherboard is required or i dont need to connect that 4 pin connector please guide.

ALPHA17 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 ^ That sounds like a case of poor connections, a 20+4 pin motherboard connector is required to run the PC. I do not see any reason why removing it is helping you power on your system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VR46 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) ^^ I was also also worried that why pc is running but everything seems normal and now even i have not connected 4 pin connector What should i do now .. any help ??

ALPHA17 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Hmmm... Try and see if it boots up without the 4 pin next time, if it does, you might need better help than I can provide. What is your PC configuration? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VR46 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 My PC configuration Intel Core I3 4130 Asus H81M-k Kingston GB DDr3 Antec vp450 Psu toshiba 1 tb HDD will update after restarting PC without 4 pin connector Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
