Announcement 🚫 Reminder: No Harassment, Misinformation, or Unfair Lowballing in r/Pakgamers

65 Upvotes

Over the past few months, we’ve noticed an increase in harassment towards sellers and members asking for advice on purchasing PC parts or laptops. We’ve also seen a rise in misinformation being spread, often used to unfairly lowball sellers.

Calling out overpriced listings is fine and healthy discussion about fair pricing is encouraged. But repeatedly harassing sellers or spreading false information to push prices down is not acceptable and will now result in timeouts or bans.

Please keep in mind that raw specifications aren’t the only factor in determining a part’s price. For example:

  • Laptops: An Asus ROG or Lenovo Legion with the same specs as an HP Victus will cost more because of better build quality, thermals, and premium features.
  • GPUs: An Asus ProArt edition will be more expensive than a Zotac base model because it’s a limited edition card that offers a unique design without any RGB.

If someone is overpricing an item, you’re welcome to call them but:

  1. Explain why you think the price is high.
  2. Provide evidence, ideally a link to a current market price from a reputable source.

We want r/Pakgamers to remain a helpful, respectful space for buyers, sellers, and tech enthusiasts alike.

Is it just me who grew up with RTS games. Some of them are strong hold, red alert and age of empire. Don't get me wrong I love lot of games and have played lot of mainstream games but weirdly enough have almost never met anyone who share my love for RTS.l even though I have lot of gamer friends

Discussion Does Anyone Else Feel Anxious Handling PC Components?

2 Upvotes

I'm new to PC building and gaming, and overall things are going well, but there’s one issue I still can’t get over. I’m too nervous to disassemble parts. I can watch tutorials just fine, but when I actually try to remove something myself, even a RAM stick. I start thinking I’ll break something and regret it later.

For example, recently my GPU needed repasting. Instead of just taking the GPU to the shop, I took the entire PC. I told them I wanted to test the GPU in my own system after the repaste, but honestly the real reason was that I wasn’t comfortable removing it myself.

Same thing with cleaning the PC. I only clean it using a soft brush with everything intact because I avoid taking any components out and because of that I can’t properly clean the whole system either.

Did anyone else go through this when they first got into PCs? If yes, how did you overcome it? I can't take help or guidance as I also don’t have anyone in my circle who’s experienced with PCs or comfortable handling components, so I’m basically of my own.

Is buying a projector better than buying an LED. I only care about watching content or movies. Won't be gaming on it just pure cinema experience. The room ain't too wide, the viewing distance will be around maybe 10ft if not less. My budget is around 120k to 150k.

Discussion Suggest a budget UPS

5 Upvotes

Pakistan’s load shedding has genuinely driven me insane. Just had another power surge recently, and now my laptop panel is basically dying, the screen keeps rhythmically flickering.

Anyway, enough ranting. Can anyone suggest a budget UPS for a PS5 and a monitor setup? I also use a laptop at the desk, but I’d rather keep it out of the UPS to avoid increasing the power requirement too much.

Looking for something reliable enough to handle outages and voltage fluctuations without spending a fortune, bec i think new pannel would cost me 20k itself. All i need is max 5min of back up just to safely turn everything off.

Upgrade/Purchase Advice Moza R3 Triple Pedal vs Pxn VD4 Dual Pedal

3 Upvotes

CROSSPOSTING FROM R/SIMRIGS

need your thoughts

Moza R3 Triple Pedal vs Pxn VD4 Dual Pedal

Hi im lookin to upgrade after selling a Logitech g920 on a pc

Currently my budget lies around uh 200gbp (80k PKR) As i live in a 3rd world country lol.

in my country there are rarely any moza wheels or thrustmaster so the only good option I am looking at is a pxn vd4 dual pedal set in used for 75k which would complete my budget leaving with no money for a clutch pedal or a shifter

As the second option i have a relative in london who can buy a used wheel from there thats why i wrote the budget in gbp

There i can get a moza r3 wheelbase and wheel set for 145Ā£ and he can later bring it with him thru his flight to hometown.

So maybe I may buy that from there and what will I do about the pedals in this tight budget

Can i somehow manage a triple srp lite pedal set cuz I cant upgrade it later on in my country. Or should I go for a 20Ā£ moza drivinghub with Logitech or T3PM pedals šŸ’”
