Build a Gaming PC In $800 in 2015

Posted by
In
Building a PC can be a really tough job, not because you have to put it together but primary due to the huge array of products in the market, it becomes difficult to choose the right product at the right price.

A Gaming PC or a pro-multimedia PC can cost you over a $1000, but if you look for better products in lower price range you can actually see the difference in the money you will be spending to build a PC without compromising on the performance and quality.

Let's build it

Before we start shopping I will suggest you buy all the products only from one shopping site (shop online, you can get great discounts too!) . 

Following is the list of things we need to buy (suggest if anything missing)
  1. Chasis
  2. Motherboard
  3. CPU
  4. RAM
  5. Graphics Card
  6. Storage (SSD and HDD)
  7. Cooling 
  8. PSU (Power Supply Unit)
  9. Optical Drive
  10. Sound Card 
  11. Keyboard & Mice
  12. Headphone

Chasis

The Chasis or the Case, is the first thing we are going to choose. We are going to build with an ATX motherboard (ATX is a little bigger than MicroATX so we would need a case compatible with ATX).

We can save on chasis by opting in for a mid-range one.



If you want the BEAST feel then go for a Corsair or Cooler master Chasis
(All ATX Chasis - Amazon)

Motherboard

We are building with Intel CPU, AMD CPUs are cheaper but Intel's are very efficient. 
For a $800 gaming PC we can get good motherboards at very low prices, around $100 to $150 and from well-known names like MSI and Asus. We would choose an ATX Motherboard and the motherboard we choose will decide the processor we will have to buy, the difference lies in socket type "LGA1155", "LGA1150" etc.

Let's choose an LGA1150 motherboard as we will be then able to get CPUs at affordable prices.

1. MSI Computer ATX DDR3 2600 LGA 1150 Motherboards Z97S SLI KRAIT EDITION




2. Asus H97-PLUS HDMI, SATA 6Gb/s, USB 3.0 ATX DDR3 1600, LGA 1150 Motherboards



(All LGA1150 ATX MotherBoards - Amazon)

CPU

Now this is a vital part. What CPU you choose decides the overall cost. We aren't building a over-powered beast, so an Intel i5 4th Generation is great. 

All the new games should run without any much performance difference with all of these CPUs



2. Intel Core i5-4460 LGA 1150 CPU - BX80646I54460


If your needs aren't that high then go for an Intel i3, you can get it at very low price:
(All Intel LGA1150 CPUs)

RAM

Time for RAM, it is probably the most easy and cheap to upgrade component of any PC so we have a really big list of RAMs to choose from. We have to keep both price and quality in mind.

8GB DDR3 1600 is ideal for our $800 build. HyperX and Corsair Vengeance are two very popular brands among gaming enthusiasts.

1. Kingston HyperX FURY 8GB 1866MHz DDR3 CL10 DIMM - Blue (HX318C10F/8)



2. Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory (CML8GX3M2A1600C9)


(All RAM)

Graphics/Video Card

This is one of the most crucial part: The Graphics card! We need a Graphics Card that's in our range and is capable of running most new games, you don't want to be left out, do you ?

1. EVGA GeForce GTX 960 Graphics Cards 02G-P4-2963-KR



2. EVGA GeForce GTX 960 SuperSC ACX 2.0+ 2GB GDDR5 128bit, PCI-E 3.0 Dual-Link DVI-I, 3 x DP, HDMI, SLI, HDCP, G-SYNC Ready Graphics Cards 02G-P4-2966-KR



3. MSI Computer Graphics Card GTX 960 2GD5T OC


(All Graphics Card)

Storage

For storage we would buy an SSD and a HDD. SSDs are fast and using it as the primary storage device will speed up the computer!

SSD

HDD

Cooling

Cooling fans and liquid cooling. Spend around $100 on this. 



Power Supply Unit (PSU)



DVD Drive

A good DVD/CD Drive will cost around $30




Sound Card

Want to have a lot of options with your sound system? Then get a Sound card here:
Sound Cards for PC

Gaming Mouse and Keyboard

There are a lot of options for Keyboard and mouse. Here's my suggestion:

Gaming Mice


Gaming Keyboards

1. Logitech G510s Gaming Keyboard with Game Panel LCD Screen


2. Logitech G105 Gaming Keyboard with Backlighting


Mechanical keyboards cost higher but are really great, do check them out too.

With great power comes great responsibility to handle it. Buy a Power Surge Protector

You don't want your hardware to get damaged due to voltage fluctuations , no one wants to. Buy a Power Surge:

Note: Buy a power surge protector that is capable of handling a desktop computer.



The above power surge protector can handle 2000 to 2499 Joules which is ideal for handling desktop computers.

Shop for Games

Now that you have your gaming PC ready it's time to buy some games and accessories. Follow the following links. 

Games for PC

The Witcher | GTA V for PC | Batman: Arkham Knight | Mortal Kombat X | Battlefield Hardline

ShopOn4U Shopping Site is a Scam

Posted by
In
Today we are not going to post any trick, we thought of spreading awareness about one big ongoing scam on the Internet and on phone calls, both.



With our ever evolving Internet, it is always a target for scamming and frauds. With the open nature of the Internet and technology anyone can create a professional looking website and trick people, especially not-so-tech-savvy person, into giving them their personal credentials such as password, credit card details and anything they can use to make profit out of cheating.

ShopOn4U Is A Complete Scam/Fraud

ShopOn4U[dot]com uses smart tricks to cheat people and asks them to send them money to claim their prizes. They work this way:

  1. Get details of a customer from any website (snapdeal, flipkart etc.) or forum probably by the comments they leave, it becomes a trace for them. 
  2. Then they calls the customer and tells them they are in top customers and it would require you to register on their site with and pay a few thousand bucks to claim it
  3. If you do that you are done, your money is gone and if you ask them about how they got your details they would try to mislead you by using vague terms assuming the customer is a web-illiterate person.
A huge population of the Internet in India aren't aware of such scams and how to differentiate a genuine and fraud service or site and they use the advantage of this fact to make those innocent people send them money to claim attractive but fake prizes. 

The analysis, how they would try to trick you

Anybody can set-up a website and put it online, even you can create a website like that and then call those people to transfer money to your account and run away with it. 

I knew they are fraud when for the first time I heard they are calling from a company called "ShopOn4U", I had never heard its name before nor Snapdeal has any affiliation with them, so it was sure they somehow steal the data to get my contacts detail. 

They called me through this numbers 1165545842 and then from another 1165028906, the first number has been already reported spam for more than 80 times, and the second number seems to be new. 


The first thing I did was to search their number on Truecaller and it came out that it is reported as fake already.

A few other users who complained about it

Visit these links to see what others said about this ShopOn4U scam:
  1. http://www.sitejabber.com/reviews/www.shopon4u.com - The first review is probably done by their own people to make it look genuine.
  2. http://www.consumercomplaints.in/bycompany/shopon4ucom-a350097.html - A complaint report. Many people lost their money.
  3. http://www.grahakseva.com/complaints/191765/shopon4ucom-ecommerce-fraud - Representatives of the site will search the internet if people have posted their experience and ask them to change their views.
  4. http://www.scamadviser.com/is-shopon4u.com-a-fake-site.html - The website cannot be trusted.

They will try to convince you that they are genuine

Next time they called I told them that they are exposed after me and the contest and the site is a fraud, but instead of hanging-up the call they kept on convincing me that they are genuine, but they didn't know I was not a computer-illiterate or web-illiterate to get tricked by them.

I told them not to call me again but they started talking too unprofessionally that I had to hang-up the call.

A few days later they called me again and I told them I didn't believed they are genuine and I asked them how did they get my details from Snapdeal, and she started defining me how e-commerce works which was completely wrong and misleading!

But if anybody who doesn't know enough about the Internet might easily get tricked into these scam. So never ever believe in any of this fraud contests and website unless you are sure that you are supposed to win some contest, whereas these morons would tell you that you are the top consumers. I just purchased on mobile since 6 months and they made me the #6 on their country wide contest, how idiotic. 

A few checks you must do

1. Check the website's SSL certificate. Genuine big-name websites which requires security such as these contest and shopping sites usually has SSL certificates on their domain and the web address is followed by 'https://'


For example the Blogger.com site:


2. If you are not still sure, then it is always good to consult an expert, they might easily be able to advice you about any specific site.

3. Search the Internet if other has complained or wrote about that website or contest.


Always be aware of these scams and also share this post with your friends and families to let them know about this in case if they ever get calls from this company again, well fake company!

Automatically Follow Twitter Accounts (Script for 2015 Updated)

Posted by
In , ,
Do you want follow a lot of people on Twitter? Mainly to get some attention from people of the same interest.. but it might prove to be a difficult task to manually click on follow buttons a 100 times!



With simple JavaScript code you can easily make that task a piece of cake.

Different codes might be needed for different types of pages on Twitter, so we have got the working codes for all of them.

For "Followers" page of other Twitter account

This is where you will find people with interests you are looking for. Go to a relevant Twitter account and click on "Followers" to get the list of its followers




TIP: Not all twitter accounts are visible at first, so running the code wouldn't follow accounts out of sight, so keep scrolling to make more accounts visible.





Run this code - (click to know how to run the code)

$('.user-actions-follow-button').click();

Optional: If you don't know how to use developer console, then simply copy and paste this in the address bar of the twitter page
javascript:$('.user-actions-follow-button').click();


You have to open developer console on your browser (check the link).

How to Select All Friends to Invite To Event on Facebook (January 2015)

Posted by
In , ,
Ever wanted to invite all your friends to the event at once? It may be a difficult task to manually click on each check box until you select all your friends before sending the invite, especially when you have more than average number of friends.


Codes, some functional codes can make your job easy, really easy. We will use simply JavaScript code to achieve the results. Running one simple code will do the selection of all the friends in the invite box for you hassle free!

UPDATE: Code Updated for New Invite Interface

The only problem is the changing interface on Facebook, the codes and interface are when changed, there's 90% possibilities that the previous code might stop working, but we keep on checking and updating the codes, so no problem!

If you get the following Invite interface then the following code should work for you (carry on with the tutorial to learn how)


The Code

var all_checkboxes = document.querySelectorAll('a[role=checkbox]');
for (var i = 0; i < all_checkboxes.length; i++) {
    if (all_checkboxes[i].attributes['aria-checked'].value == "false") {
      all_checkboxes[i].click();
    }
}

The above code must work fine. But if doesn't try the other ones (mainly for browser compatability, using Chrome or Firefox (latest) is recommended).

Alternate code:
var all_items = document.getElementsByClassName('_1v30');
for (var i = 0; i < all_items.length; i++) {
    al_items[i].click();
}



Before you run the code

Before you run the code to select all the friends you better make all the friends in the list visible by scrolling till the end, if you don't do it then only the number of friends in the list that is currently available would be selected.

Run the code on Developer Console

The final step is to run the code on the invite page.

Shortcuts: Press CTRL+SHIFT+J (for Chrome), CTRL+SHIFT+K (for FireFox)

To do that see the detailed instruction on using Developer Consoles on different browser


Leave your comments below! If you got any errors then do tell us, we will try fix it.
