With a long list of upcoming initial public offers (IPOs) in the pipeline this year, investors may look forward to an action-packed year. As many as 16 IPOs are likely to hit the market in March itself to raise over Rs 25,000 crore.
The list of upcoming IPOs includes MTAR Technologies, Kalyan Jewellers India, Power Grid Corporation InvIT, Anupam Rasayan, Laxmi Organic Industries, Suryoday Small Finance Bank, Craftsman Automation, Barbeque Nation Hospitality, Nazara Technologies, Aadhar Housing Finance and India Pesticides, among others.

Here’s a look at the top 11 upcoming IPOs that are scheduled to hit the market in March 2021.
Game consoles still have great success with the public because they allow us to play in the living room or bedroom quickly and quickly: just switch them on, choose the game to start (or insert the optical media into the player), wait a few seconds and start immediately to play. The same cannot be said of the gaming computer: often we will have to wait for the system to start, wait for Windows updates and start the desired game with the keyboard and mouse anyway.
But if we wanted to build a game console with PC pieces, which pieces should we choose in order not to regret a PlayStation or an Xbox? How to optimize the operating system to be as fast and practical as a console?
In this guide, we will have fun showing you how to make a home game console using the components normally intended for desktop PCs and, in a dedicated chapter, how to optimize Windows for this purpose.
PC parts to buy for a game console
The computer to be used as a game console must have a compact shape and as close as possible to the appearance of a console, although it will inevitably be larger since the internal components for a computer tend to take up more space. The advantage of this configuration is that we can update it at regular intervals, so as to always have maximum graphics power.
Components for the PC to be connected to the TV
In order to recreate a game console with the components of a computer we will have to focus, we stick to the list of products available below:
There is no slacker component to the new generation of talented young pilots who like to fool around with quadcopters.
In a canyon in the Rocky Mountain Front above Fort Collins, Colorado, a young man named Jordan Temkin is flying his drone. He wears goggles that show him a video feed from a camera built into the drone, and he holds a console with twin joysticks that control the direction, angle, pitch, yaw, and speed of the flight. He sets the drone on the gravel at his feet. Just downhill is the Cache la Poudre River. The canyon rises to maybe three hundred feet above. He gives a command and the drone leaps to the top of the canyon in an instant. Then it is soaring over the highest places, looking down on Temkin, a small figure sitting on the tailgate of his car. At eighty miles an hour, the shadow of the drone flashes across the face of the rocks. Then Temkin swoops it down to the surface of the river, where it zips a few feet above the water. Because of where the sun is, the river is a blast of silver light. Temkin takes the drone upward again and veers into an intersecting canyon.
The limit on the battery that powers the drone is about three minutes. Before time’s up, Temkin lands the drone near him, where its arrival on the gravel makes the kind of plastic clatter associated with dropped toys. In fact, the drone looks like a toy. Temkin calls it a quadcopter. It has four plastic propellers, one at each corner of a cruciform plastic frame. “Quad” is the commonly used name for drones like this. The entire device could fit in a single-serving pizza box. An immeasurable amount of scientific and technological progress, like a huge invisible inverted pyramid, converges on this small, toylike point.
