  1. Budget (including currency): Rs 1.5 - 2 L (around $2-3K) Country: India Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: I want to play games in the free time, looking for Competitive shooters mostly but will want to play AAA titles on 1440p. I am a software developer, so will be working on that as well. Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): This will be my first rig, so will be building it from scratch. I want the best budget friendly (Assuming that I can get a RTX 3080 for around Rs 70-80K(~$1000) ), I don't want to cheap out but basically want to avoid spending a lot on something(a too powerful cpu/overpriced Mobo) that doesn't benefit the system that much. Apart from the system, I also want recommendations for either a good ultrawide monitor or a triple monitor setup. Any help will be appreciated.
  2. I am thinking of buying a Smartwatch and was holding off till the release of Galaxy Watch 3 but its almost same as the Active 2. I was almost certain to buy Galaxy Active 2, but I target on using the "Smart" features of the watch more than the Health features and I don't really like Bixby and prefer Google Assistant and Wear OS instead, so was confused by the Fossil Gen 5. If you have any experience or reviews with either of these, please help me out. Also, if there is any other sub $300 watch that i can use with my Android Phone and might be a better option please do mention that as well.
  3. Hello Everyone, I have been saving up to get a smartwatch and Xiaomi released Mi Watch (basically a great Apple Watch Clone) in Nov 2019, that is exactly what i wanted but it hasn't released outside China yet and I am fed up waiting for it. What I am looking for is: More Tech oriented than Fitness. Amoled Screen Something ~$200 Available/ Deliverable in India Wear OS Preferably Square Google Assistant Built-in Works on Android I have looking for something but its either more fitness oriented in this price range or are like $50 ones that won't give a good experience. The alternatives that i have till now is Amazfit GTS https://en.amazfit.com/gts.html. Please suggest me something that is well enough or if its some watch that you have been using please share your experience with it. You can have look at Mi Watch here: https://youtu.be/KuOkGP15pDo.
  4. You'll also have to keep in mind that there are organizations that may buy them in bulks. I am currently working as an Software Developer intern at one of the companies in FANG, and they are offering top of the line MBP as an option to work on (I have chosen it as well), as I think that they want their staff to have the best possible workstation as an option. So I think these kind of companies can result in really big sales for them as well.
  5. I have been facing the issue of crappy and stuttering audio from my laptop. I first noticed when i tried connecting my Bluetooth Headphones and the audio was crazy and the audio driver kept disappearing and appearing from the audio devices list. Today, i noticed that my Audio service was taking 70% CPU Usage and closed it down and when i opened Device Manager, it showed these many devices that had some with crazy names . I have already tried restarting and reinstalling the Realtek Audio Drivers but that did not help. Please help me fix this, as i am unable to get any Audio after this issue.
  6. I finally got a fix after a thorough cleaning of my laptop and the fan dust, along with changing the Thermal Paste. It worked like a charm.
  7. I ran Furmark on 1080p preset and got the following result
  8. Also, i tested the temps for a game so i got this
  9. This is the result i got from HWMonitor after playing a game HWMonitor.txt
  10. I have a Asus GTX FX553VD Laptop, with the following specs: i7-7700HQ GTX 1050 2GB 16 GB RAM 512GB Intel 660p NVMe SSD I am experiencing severe problems while playing games, for instance, CSGO gives me 15-50 fps on high 1080p and the game is totally unplayable at times. I have done the following things: - Tried uninstalling and reinstalling graphics driver with a driver removal tool. - Tried optimizing Windows tasks that might be using CPU. - Tried all in-game optimizations that I could find, including fps_delimiting and settings change. Currently using optimized settings from GeForce Experience, I have attached screenshots of Task manager on idle as well as when playing CSGO. Any help can really save my day.
  11. Watched the WAN show, got to know i am super late to this
  12. Vessel was all great until it was acquired and dumped down the shithole.
  13. Yeah, although the content are exclusive to each other but their model seems more robust.
  14. Some of the creators from youtube have released a service that is somewhat similar to Floatplane, i got to know about in a video from one of the participating channel. Link: https://watchnebula.com/ What are your views on this?
  15. I understand that, but i just want to know first about what all things are there that i must learn and practice and what are the things that need to be avoided. Basically, i need a better picture from someone who already have gone through all this.
  16. Hey Everyone, I am currently in my a sophomore in my sophomore and pursuing Computer Science and Engineering. As summer is approaching, i have a goal to learn Data Science and all related aspects and become proficient in Machine Learning and Data Science. I know this might not be the right forum to discuss this but as a community, i see this place is filled with pretty talented people from all around the world. So i am looking for someone who has experience working with data science and is willing to help me up to figure out a path which i can take to utilize my summer in the most efficient way. Your suggestion are really welcome and would be of great help. P.S. I already tried pretty hard to look it up online but everything is pretty scattered and all of them go in different ways as well. P.P.S. I also want to develop my Data Structures and Algorithms, for which i regularly take part in competitive programming contests as well.
  17. I ran it as "fsck /dev/nvme0n1p3"(partition name) and that is what i got after googling about fsck.
  18. fsck does not do anything it just tells that 0.1% is non contiguous and does not fix anything
  19. No, i think it stopped when i once ran out of battery and the system shut down.
  20. I migrated it and reinstalling is not a feasible option as i had done a lot of customization and package installs on that ubuntu.
  21. I'm 100% positive that it was working as usual after the move, was using it for a week.
