Is this a decent PC build (including Monitor) under 1.6L? Or should I aim for better?

I'm going for 16gb x 2 of DDR5 RAM just because I prefer having smooth Framepacing and the least amount of stutters in game. Do you guys believe I should go ahead with this build, or I can do better?

I would also prefer having the complete build in under 1.5L if possible!

Also I already have a 1TB WD SN5000, so that's one less of a concern.

Unofficial MFG mod is out for 40 and 30 series and it's completely a game changer! This gives 40 and even 30 series Laptops a new life.

Hey everyone!

For anyone who missed it, the RTX 40 series has received an unofficial DLSS Multi Frame Generation unlock thanks to the modding community.

As we know, having Multi FrameGen was the only advantage 50 series Laptops held over 40 series and it was one of the factors why going for a GPU like RTX 5050 made sense over something like RTX 4060. But with this one mod, the game has changed now.

The fact that RTX 40 GPUs can now run DLSS Multi Frame Generation brings them closer to RTX 50 series than ever before. From what early testing suggests, the MFG implementation on Ada is surprisingly close to the official Blackwell version (like 95% in practical use), and there is still room for further improvements as the mod matures.

Considering that RTX 4060 laptop GPUs already have a noticeable performance advantage over RTX 5050 ones in gaming, this makes the 4060 a worthier pick. Why spend more on a 5050 just for official MFG when a 4060 can deliver higher native performance and now gets access to a very similar frame generation experience?

This is one of the best news for 40 series owners as this mod works the best here.

▲ 119 r/iphone17

120Hz on iPhone 17 doesn't feel as smooth as Android Devices (even Realme P4!) and Pro variants.

Ever since I bought the device, this has been bothering me. Swiping through the home screen has minor framedrops and stutters, and this is evident across all iPhone 17 including display units.

You can compare a Pro variant and Base iPhone 17 side by side, and the difference is easily noticeable. It feels like the 17 is running on 90Hz while the other on 120Hz. This however is not an issue in 120FPS Gaming because the framerate is consistent 119.99 FPS.

This needs to be pointed out, and I'm surprised that I can hardly find any relevant discussions on this topic. If anyone here can compare, do you guys feel the same way?

Ban system in PokeGenie is ridiculous.

Host Level 23 here, and I’ve never broken a single rule while hosting raids. Now I’m almost unable to host Super Mega raids because the queue without additional trainers is ridiculously long. I really think the restriction on setting additional trainers needs to be reconsidered or removed.

Is there anything we can do about this? On that day, I had my friends with me and we were 3 local players, while the rest were remote trainers. Unfortunately, many of the remote trainers either didn’t join or didn’t Mega Evolve, which resulted in failed raids. Across 8 Super Mega raids, we managed to get only 13 total participants in a single lobby.

After all the effort I’ve put in and calling local players who were busy with their own work just to make sure I followed the rules, this is what I get. It feels extremely frustrating to be penalized despite trying my best to host properly.

Flipkart misled me about the final price of iPhone 17. On EMI checkout total price including Interest showed ₹72k, but total repayment seems to be ₹76k. Should I accept the order?

I ordered the iPhone 17 on EMI using an ICICI Credit Card. During checkout, Flipkart showed the total payable amount (including Interest) as around ₹72,000 and clearly wrote that this price is including Interest.

But now that first EMI has been debited, bank statement shows that the 72k price wasn't including Interest. I have to pay interest separately on top of it. I have been distressed since then .

What's the best approach I have now?

Also this is a repost as I need some rational replies. Most of the people seem to be missing the point here, so let me state it clearly:

  1. This isn't about any additional taxes (such as 18% GST which I know exists) on top of interest and base price. Only base price and interest is the concern.

  2. At time of checkout, (In my case)

Total Amount (including Interest) = ₹72,034

Actual Total Amount as per Bank = ₹72,034 + Interest = Around 76k

Misleading EMI pricing on Flipkart iPhone 17 purchase via ICICI Credit Card. I have to pay 5-7k more!

I ordered an iPhone 17 on Flipkart at around 12:01 AM on 3rd July.

Initially, I planned to pay using direct credit card payment via ICICI, where the total amount showed around ₹72.5k.

However, I also checked the EMI options. Surprisingly, the EMI section showed a total of around ₹72,000, and it was explicitly mentioned there that this amount was “including interest.” I quickly checked the monthly EMI breakup, which added up to the same total, and the checkout page still showed ₹72,000 as the final amount.

Based on this, I proceeded with the order.

What confused me was that even though the EMI clearly indicated an interest rate (around 16%), the total payable still showed ₹72,000, which made it seem like either:

There was a discount applied, or

the interest was already adjusted within the price.

To be sure, I later checked other smartphones and products, and noticed similar patterns where the EMI section shows a “total amount including interest,” but still displays a single consolidated price at checkout. This made me assume the price already included some offer or adjustment.

However, after the final credit card statement was generated, I noticed that the actual EMI breakup results in a higher total (around ₹75-76k), meaning additional interest has been applied on top of the product price.

Now I’m genuinely about how the pricing was represented during checkout.

This purchase was for my father, and the phone is important for our family. At this point, I’m unsure whether to continue or cancel the order, and I’m way too stressed about the situation.

What would be the best thing to do here?

Getting my first mechanical keyboard and I'm unsure if I should spend more on Aula F75 (₹4.8k) over Evofox Ronin Wireless (₹3k).

I’m planning to place the order today, and this is my first mechanical keyboard coming from basic laptop keyboards.

From what I’ve seen, the Aula F75 is generally considered to have better build quality and a more refined typing experience. On the other hand, the Evofox Ronin Wireless also seems solid for the price, and one thing I really like is the shine through keycaps, which are essential for using the keyboard in dark.

Since I’ve mostly used laptop keyboards and still find them decent, the Evofox already feels like a big enough upgrade for me. But at the same time, I’m wondering if it’s actually worth spending extra for the Aula F75.

For those who’ve used either (or both), is the upgrade to the Aula F75 really noticeable in daily use? What exactly does it offer over the Evofox Ronin Wireless that justifies the higher price?

Question regarding the final price on ICICI Credit Card EMI. I won't be charged more than 72k, right?

This is the price breakdown for the iPhone 17 purchased on EMI using an ICICI Credit Card. The same total amount was shown at the time of placing the order and has already been debited from the credit limit. Can you guys please confirm if this is the final payable amount and whether there are any additional interest charges, or is everything already included in this price? I'm afraid that they might charge additional 16% interest.

At the time of placing the order, the total price (which should include Interest and Base Price) was 72k.

This Laptop has been a Nightmare for me. Need suggestions!

The first month I bought this Laptop (Lenovo Legion 5 15IRX9), I was really glad that I finally achieved this long dream of mine. I always wanted to have a gaming laptop and I got one for 1.10L back in July 2025. The thermals and all were excellent. But just a month after buying it, I realised that the Laptops aren't capable enough to maintain stable "frametime" in games. What we see in the charts comparing Laptop and Desktop Performance is the frame rate which is almost on par between both, but due to weaker RAM Module and CPU in Laptops, there are occassional stutters while playing demanding games. This irked me the most, and I almost decided to sell it in December but chose not to because of the RAM Crysis. I decided to live with it and appreciate the positive side- The Thermal Management and Performance.

Unfortunately my hopes shattered just the next month in January when the Laptop started to heat up excessively. The rear exhausts of the Laptop gave up and stopped blowing air out. Everyone I contacted including Lenovo, Legion Owners and all blamed the Laptop and me. So assured that the Intel CPU is the fault, and I don't understand thermal physics. Everyone told me that the rear exhausts are supposed to blow lesser air out compared to the sides. I dealt with this mess for 4 months until I got the Heat Sink replacement in April, and woila! The rear vents started blowing air out and even more than the sides. The service guy who earlier claimed that I'm being delusional was surprised as well. I was all thrilled again that the greatest worry of mine has vanished and decided to just get out of this mess. I GAVE UP ON GAMING. In this last month, all I used the Laptop for was watching 1-2 hour movies once a WEEK and nothing else. It was just collecting dust.

Until just a week back, I opened the Laptop lid and its Y Button came off. This is shocking considering this Laptop costs a lakh and this type of imperfection doesn't even exist in budget Laptops.

The keyboard itself seems perfectly fine, except that the Y keycap popped off on its own, and the hinge appears to be broken.

I visited the service center, and they’re now suggesting a full keyboard replacement and they have already ordered a new one. But when I bought the laptop, it was advertised that keys are swappable, and now the technicians say key swapping is not possible. But I'm sure that the keys are swappable on this model.

Replacing the keyboard is a complicated process, and I really don’t want to risk any other issues.

I’m thinking that once the replacement keyboard arrives, I could ask the service center to just swap the Y keycap from the new keyboard onto my laptop. Is it possible? The service guy says it's not. I have a 15 year old HP Laptop whose buttons broke in a similar manner just 6-7 years back and it was suggested to replace the keyboard. Can't believe we have a latest Laptop in 2026 suffering from the same fate.

You guys have helped me out in the past as well, and I will appreciate any suggestions.

Another issue with my Laptop: Y key came off on my 9 month old Legion 15IRX9, but the keyboard is fine.

The keyboard itself seems perfectly fine, except that the Y keycap popped off on its own, and the hinge appears to be broken. This is frustrating because just last month, the laptop’s rear exhausts stopped working, and I had to get the heatsink replaced. I was relieved everything else was okay, and I barely used the laptop for a month, only to open it today and find the Y key came off.

I visited the service center, and they’re now suggesting a full keyboard replacement and they have already ordered a new one. But when I bought the laptop, it was advertised that keys are swappable, and now the technicians say key swapping is not possible. But I'm sure that the keys are swappable on this model.

Replacing the keyboard is a complicated process, and I really don’t want to risk any other issues.

I’m thinking that once the replacement keyboard arrives, I could ask the service center to just swap the Y keycap from the new keyboard onto my laptop. Is this possible? Has anyone done this before?
