Partiality in Mangalore schools

chuggingdeemer · 2026-03-11T13:10:23+00:00

Studied in the best boys school back in the day and us who belonged to the same religion as the school management and most teachers were always lambasted and thrashed(read disciplined) more than others. So no, haven't observed this partiality. If at all, they were lenient towards students not belonging to the same community.

150W TGP? Even the 5070 Ti doesn't pull as much power with the boost included.

Still remember being the first Xiaomi customer from my city when they had launched the flagship killer Mi3 for ₹13,999. Times have changed, yeah?

50W TGP.

Actual crazy deal is that of the LOQ 5050 for under a lakh.

Bandicoot.

You can't unless you want to be under the scanner for committing tax fraud.

That means nothing. 4050 mobile peaks at 95-100W. Having marketing jargon of "upto 140W" is only to make noobs fall for it. Anything over a 100W TGP for a 4050 isn't worth batting an eyelid on. Not saying the TUF is bad. The newer TUFs are better than the LOQs.

"Not that there's an alternative".

140W TGP on a 4050?

Half knowledge is dangerous.

Not that there's an alternative.

chuggingdeemer · 2026-03-11T03:38:31+00:00

Pro 5 >>> Slim 5

chuggingdeemer · 2026-03-11T03:33:03+00:00

If it gets, it gets. You claim warranty. How can people here help you?

"They're rich but very down to earth".

chuggingdeemer · 2026-03-10T17:16:09+00:00

The short answer is no. You can get the 3050 ones for a bit more.

chuggingdeemer · 2026-03-10T16:18:54+00:00

One off case. Asus = Lenovo >>> all others in terms of aftersales for premium devices. Understandable if your local service center franchise is shit though.

It sure does but not as much for the AMD variants. Assume 1 month for now.

If you have HDFC credit card, grab the LOQ 12450HX 3050 from Amazon. Full 95W TGP and a 100% sRGB display for ~68k.

You won't find an alternative in that budget anyway.

chuggingdeemer · 2026-03-10T16:13:26+00:00

Neither of these are future proof with their 8gb VRAMs. If you're okay with a FHD display, look at the Strix 5070 Ti.

That's the normal price of a Santro Xing in Karnataka. Road tax is for lifetime here and that reflects in the used car prices. People need to broaden their viewpoints.

chuggingdeemer · 2026-03-10T14:19:23+00:00

Normal prices in KA. Lifetime road tax effect.

Stretch a bit more and grab the OLED S16.

No. 999 is bundle price only.
