    Why is 3840x2160 considered 4k?

    Today we consider 1920x1080 1080p, and 1280x720 is considered 720p so they are both labelled by their width but with 4k 3840x2160 is only 2x more than 1080p so it is really 2k. but why do brands call it 4k and make tvs and projectors and cameras so overpriced almost 10x more expensive than a...

    Pls Help me choose b/w these Laptops.

    If I were you I would go with the first one, eventhough the second one uses GDDR5 it wont work that well considering it will only run with 2 gb of RAM and the first one has a newer graphics processor

    WD HDD problem in my PC

    Did you connect the original WD HDD to a different sata port on your mobo when you put in the new one? if so then you probably plugged it into a older version of SATA port which would limit your HDD speed. Therefore if you only have one newer SATA port then you should hook the HDD to a USB 3.0...

They're are two types of SSDS Pci-e AND SATA (plugs in like a hard drive) PCIE ssds tend to be way more expensive but give you way better performance but should...
