  1. Floating phone LG U Plus I have no idea if this is a real phone or not. I tried to do some research but couldn't really find any hard evidence for it.. but SERIOUSLY?? FLOATING PHONE!!!! I do not understand what sort of a future we are going towards but having a phone that can float like this is just absurd. Even if the software is able to manage the stabilisation, hover, without cutting my fingers off, I really really doubt that it will be useful with the noise it will make. Just useless tech!! Probably in future the phone's will follow us like dogs n will need to be trained.

    Scam ad on Instagram

  3. you need to check in the description on these websites if the products support international warranty. Generally you can get that information on the brand's website. They differ from brand to brand.
  4. Not really. It had a blinding effect and reflex action was to add the card to the cart but by the time I started registration process, it had sinked in and I realised that it might be a scam.
  5. CPU 8400 is locked and can not be overclocked, so probably not a good idea to buy B360 or z370
  6. First saw an advertisement on Instagram app. It was MSI branded ad claiming 500 pieces of GTX1080TI at price match. So I clicked on the link hoping that it will be MSI factory store selling the GPU at MSRP. To my surprise the prices listed were $120 for MSI GAMING GeFroce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB GDRR5X DirectX 12 352-bit VR. I was in a shock and almost placed the order and just before registering on the website, I realised that the Favicon for the websites was a spider. That made me check the reliability of the website. After doing some tinkering I was not able to find the link of the website on MSI's official website. After reading all of the content on the fake website, I realised there have not mentioned any contact details, company name, address, contact number etc. Then clicking on the social media buttons on their website took me to the home page of the respective social media. I thanked my stars that I am web developer and have sound knowledge about how websites work and I did not get fooled by the astronomically low prices and way it hit me. For almost a minute I was blinded towards the authenticity of the website until I really gave it a thought. After looking at the Who.is details of the domain name, I realised it is registered to someone in Asia and is probably someone trying to sell their used mining cards for cheap. This is to inform the general public that they should look into the authenticity of a website before making a purchase online. Stay safe! PS: Link to the website : http://msi-stores.com/
  7. Hey, Please don't troll on me for being a noob, but I was just checking if there a dedicated forum on LTT forums for cryptocurrency. I know Linus finds it to be a gambling and he is true about that but I find it to be an interesting discussion just because I find it fun to build new rigs. I am helping out a friend build an enthu rig for bitcoin gold mining so thought whats better than LTT forums for latest updates. Do let me know how to proceed with the discussion as there is not much out there about Bitcoin Gold.
