[ADVISE] Help in Assembling/Building/Choosing/Upgrading Your Computer

OhNow3P · Aug 23, 2008

Hi guys,

I started this thread to help everyone wanting a new computer. All you need to do is post the following:

Code:

budget:
usage:

other miscellaneous requirements:

*If to be used for gaming,. please indicate the games you wish to play.

The prices i will be using are those that come from major shops in gilmore and also PCexpress and others... The prices will only reflect that of which on the date of my post.

also please put your requests in this format:

Processor:
Motherboard:
RAM:

Video Card:

Hard Drive:
Optical Drive:

Power Supply:
Casing:

monitor:

Accessories:

please indicate (at least)the size of the hard disk desired, and also what you need/have/prefer.

Thanks.

How to get to Gilmore:
commuting... From EDSA get on the MRT to Cubao and take the other train and get off at Gilmore station. so easy.
driving... Via aurora is the easiest way from EDSA. anyway, just ask na lang cos i dunno where you'll be coming from.

An example post would be as follows:

Hi. Please help me buy a computer for my son. He will be using it mainly for school and some games. He likes to play Dota and L4D. Our budget for the PC would be 20K. We already have a printer, monitor and speakers. Our monitor is a 17" CRT monitor. My son said he prefers 1gb video card.

Thank you.

Maganda performance nyan, comparable sa 550ti ng Nvidia w/o a 6pin PSU. (power efficiency)

Videocard is cheap and low on performance. A FX-8150 of AMD will be reliable if using 1 high end videocard or 2-3videocard in crossfire or SLI.

ELSE...

Panget ang magiging kalalabasan ng setup mo on games.
If multitasking like encoding/decoding, ok na ang 8150. Pero ayaw mo ba sa 2500k + 560Ti??

Actually kaya na ng 500w. Para lang may headroom para sa future kung sa tingin mo ung PSU tatagal na sayo for 3-5years.

RAM: use Gskill f3 ARES or Gskill Ripjaw X dual channel 2gbx2

VIDEOCARD: Go for GTS450 1gb ddr5 konti nalang difference mas ok sya kesa sa gt430 2gb..... Check mo din dito sa

http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html

para makita mo yun ranking ng GT430 and GTS450

MOBO: asusp8h61 usb 3.0

PSU: FSP hexa 500 watts or Hec rapter 2 500 watts, gigabyte superb 500 watts

CASING: Coolermaster elite 431 mas ok yun airflow nito

Monitor: 18inch kahit anung brand mas ok kung may HDMI na.

goodluck sir sa new rig mo.... :salute:
