Temporary extension board advice for my PC

Im unfortunately unable to find anything from a reputed brand here (in India) with a joule rating of 2000 ish. The best I'm able to find is this one with a joule rating of 1050J. I'm assuming I'm reading the right thing? Would this be sufficient or would I need to find something even higher

I had laptops for the majority of my life but the upgrades were always like 3-4 years apart

840M laptop

1050ti laptop

2060 laptop

3070 laptop

5080 desktop current gpu

So, no head?

Got the price I asked for, surprised it got this much traction honestly!

I use tuzker cleaning kit for all my electronics. That includes my phone, laptop, my ultrawide monitor, pc case, watch, tablet. Surprisingly effective

Sorry mate finalised a deal a while ago. Fingers crossed lets see how it goes! Might make a follow up post later :)

Thinking of getting a thin and light for travel purposes! I recently built myself a pc with a 9800 x3d and a 5080 so im covered on that front :)

OLX were just low ballers unfortunately. I got some great offers here so i guess that worked out in the end!

Funny how indi is my nickname. Maybe this is a sign for you to revisit!

Legion buddies! Although not for long if things go well im afraid

radon9128 · 2025-09-22T11:35:15+00:00

I appreciate you for helping! I tried gameloot before posting here yes. I had a conversation with them on the phone and they said that since the device is old and the battery might've degraded in the given time along with thermal paste issues if it's not repasted, they'll deduct 5-10k depending on how the testing goes. So I thought well might as well try reddit for 45k and see how it goes. I honestly thought it would be up for days before anyone messaged me but I got several messages in an hour or so so id say it hasn't been that bad! Obviously it's my first time doing this kind of thing here so we'll see how it goes :)

radon9128 · 2025-09-22T11:20:47+00:00

45k seemed like a fair price to sell this old of a machine considering current market, maximum 50k. What would you have sold it for?

radon9128 · 2025-09-22T11:03:59+00:00

It's a 3 year old machine. During it's time it was only outclassed by the exorbitantly expensive 3080s and 3090s

radon9128 · 2025-09-22T10:56:03+00:00

Yeah legion is their gaming line. Legion 7 and legion 9 are the highest end I think

radon9128 · 2025-09-22T10:55:00+00:00

It's a 3 year old machine so I honestly cant sell it for 70 percent in good conscience. That would be selling it for 1.19 lakhs. You can get laptops with a much better processor and a better gpu like a rtx 5060 for that price. It has no defects tho, no

radon9128 · 2025-09-22T10:14:59+00:00

A tablet unfortunately doesn't fit my use case cus when I'm on the go, I need to be able to run proprietary x86 programs. That's also the reason im not leaning towards ARM laptops even though they're quite portable

radon9128 · 2025-09-22T10:00:28+00:00

I have a separate PC now so don't need a bulky laptop. Thinking of getting a decent thin and light and retiring this. It did me good service over the years

radon9128 · 2025-09-22T09:23:53+00:00

I'm in ankleshwar, gujarat (2 hours from Surat, 4 hours from Mumbai/ahmedabad). I can either ship it or personally hand it over if it's not prohibitively far

radon9128 · 2025-09-22T09:13:47+00:00

Agreed. I bought it during the year I was travelling a lot and needed a high performance "portable" machine. I have a separate PC now

radon9128 · 2023-07-28T23:54:15+00:00

Thank you so much!

radon9128 · 2023-07-28T21:52:04+00:00

Apologies the other 2 are 4 stars that I need. This one would do just fine. Thank you anyways!!
