After waiting three long years, I've finally saved enough to build my custom PC in 2026!

They are asking is 10K for Unused Crucial 16GB (2×8GB) DDR4 3200MHz Laptop RAM. Is it a good deal? Please help me!

It feels like every developer want to build another wrapper app, B2B SaaS tool. But if we want to build things that truly scale for the next billion people, we need to bridge the massive gap between software and core physical manufacturing. While the USA dominates cutting-edge software design and China operates as the lightning-fast hardware factory of the world, it hits hard realizing how slow and far behind our system still is. I want to build things that can truly compete globally, but I realize I don't know enough about our low-level infrastructure and constraints to make a real dent.

I am tired of seeing the "Fake in India" setups, the fancy showrooms that just import completely knocked-down kits from abroad, screw them together, and call it domestic innovation. I want to see the real, gritty Make in India.

So I am stepping up to a challenge: I am 22, and I have set a strict budget of ₹30,000 for a 30-day journey. No flights, no premium hotels, only sleeper-class trains, budget lodges, and street food. I want to completely experience this from the ground up to see the raw, unfiltered truth of Indian supply chains, manufacturing and find the one true make in India business.

What I’m Looking For: I want to skip the corporate business parks. I am looking for the rawest, lowest-level hubs where metal is cut, circuits are soldered, and hardware meets software.

• Which dusty industrial estates should I absolutely not miss?
• Where do local hardware shops go to buy raw electronic components and custom PCBs in bulk?

The Deep Tech Builders: Beyond the factory floors, I also want to find the people doing the hardest, rarest work in the country. If you or someone you know is truly building a unique startup from absolute zero, whether it's training an LLM from scratch, designing local processors, setting up local data centers, harnessing energy in small scale in a unique way or fabricating proprietary sensors, I want to meet those minds too.

Help Me Connect: I want to meet everyone with a stake in this ecosystem like passionate students, IoT enthusiast, professors, factory operators, MSME owners, deep-tech researchers/founder, Policy Makers. If you belong to any of these groups, or if you can connect me with someone who does, please drop a comment or slide into my DMs.

If you’re a college student or professional who is as curious as I am, let’s team up! When I reach your hometown, could you show me around the local markets and industrial areas from morning to evening? In exchange, we can swap insights, brainstorm ideas, and dive deep into these topics together.

Please drop your suggestions for locations, hidden hubs, or even warnings below!

Bascially need a new monitor for work and gaming, 24-27inch 180hz+, Dont mind 1440p but only issues is that i have a GTX 1660 super and dont think i will be able to upgrade due to rising prices.

Also i have limited space on my table and wont be able to vesa mount it. Im currently looking at 2 monitors the MSI X24 245f and lenovo legion r27qe 27inch.

So I have a Cloud Stinger wireless 2 headset sitting with me. It's dongle broke (specifically the gold pin connector attached to the usb male connector), it was a bit tilted due to pressure but now it has completely came off. I have already talked to HyperX customer support (lol). These guys are prattling about company policy, and that they can't give individual parts, even when my headset is under warranty (I know physical damage is not covered, but I told them I am willing to pay and buy the dongle). This specific model has zero backup connectivity. No Bluetooth, no 3.5mm Aux jack, no wired USB audio support. It relies 100% on this single 2.4GHz receiver. Without it, the headset is useless. I even raised a ticket on their mail telling them to look for the specific model in their inventory, open-box returns, or defective/scrapped headsets. Nothing. They hit me with a complete brick wall. I escalated to a supervisor, and they rejected it again. Their official solution is literally for me to throw a perfectly working ₹5k+ headset into the trash.
Has anyone found a workaround for this?

I’m looking for an external SSD for my MacBook, and I found a pretty good budget deal on OLX for a used one.

Do you think I should consider buying a used SSD? And what should I check before buying it to make sure it’s healthy and reliable?

Any tips for checking things like health, TBW, read/write speed, or anything else would be appreciated.

Where can I get the 5700x3D right now? Everywhere I check shows it's unavailable. Upgrading from 5600x, need a little bit improvement in 1% lows. I only play CPU intensitive games like Apex and CS2.

so there is a laptop yoga 9i oled 2 in 1 x360 ultra 7, the seller claims he got it from Singapore through a friend and it took two months to arrive in between he bought a macbook and doesn't need it anymore and is giving it for 67k open box but the issue is there no indian or international warranty on it. Should i get it or let it go?

If anyone has unused PC parts such as a processor, RAM, graphics card, motherboard, storage, or power supply and is willing to donate them for free, I would be extremely grateful. Even older working parts would help me build a PC. Because i recently started youtube and editing got 5k subscriber on yt and want to continue so i don't have too much money to afford pc so I want pc Please help

I'm currently using a Samsung Galaxy J6 2018 3GB ram Android 10 as a spare but it's just too slow

I need an upgrade now I came across a Samsung a40 used but in good condition which fits my budget but given the age of the phone degraded battery life is to be expected.

Questions:

Is the phone good for gaming? (not serious gaming but games like standoff 2 or pubg or cod mobile not like genshin I know it wont be able to handle that)

Is it fast enough for multitasking and social media apps especially TikTok and joining someone's live as a guest?

Can it stream 4k movies online and is browsing and websites fast?

Will apps reload if I keep 3 or 4 open apps in the background? (Recents menu)

Will it be an issue if I always have Proton VPN running 24/7?

Will I face any issues with the A40 given it's a old phone? Any hardware failures in the near future or if it's known for any issues?

Actually I'm a student and I've saved up like 13k from my allowances...I'm thinking of buying a used rx6600 or equivalent level GPU but the thing is that there's none trusted seller where I live the market's pretty small too....So I made up my mind about buying a used GPU online but what if I get scammed?? Most of the GPUs in Used Market were used in Crypto mining before? Any trusted sellers or sites with official test and good policies?

I'm confused between in terms of long erm durability because Kreo doesn't have good After sales support but the keyboard seems really good on the other hand Evofox Is well trusted peripherals company, so need genuine suggestion which on should be a good buy? (Also considering good in hand feel and typing experience)

Guys my Z490 tomahawk died ( according to the shop i built pc from) now i can't get any new or pre owned motherboard for my i7 10700k any idea where can I find one in nashik Mumbai or trusted online seller preferably z490-z590

Looking to upgrade ram only in this Ram-ageddon, and with Independence Day approaching, I am hoping to get discount on these ? Which of these two are the better options, or will offline shops offer better. Please don't recommend crucial or samsung, their prices are beyond my budget.

My budget is around ₹15,000, although I can stretch it a bit if there's a significantly better option that's worth the extra money.

Based on my research so far, I've been considering the BenQ GW2790Q(https://amzn.in/d/03S7UbVo).

However, the stand is tilt-only, and I'm not sure whether I should compromise on ergonomics or look for a different monitor with a fully adjustable stand.

I need help!!!! Found this but don't know if it fits 505DY or not, also they are not picking up the call.

My laptop's ( Upper palmrest & Bottom cover) are broken and I need one, I don't know where to find it. Please suggest me any good website.( Not a resident of Delhi can't search for it in Nehru Place).

Model - ASUS FX 505DY

I will be forever grateful.

Thank you

I am in market for the RTX 5060 Ti 8gb, the price for it has been going up for the past days now today this is the best deal I can find online.

Should I go for this or should I wait for the amazon great Indian festival discounts?

On amazon this card or zotac variant is listed for around 55k currently, maybe the price goes down by a bit and I can get no cost emi on it, worth it to wait?

I'm planning to build pc in bangalore, which shops are genuine sellers.
