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

[OhNow3P]

Hi guys,

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

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.

Re: [ADVISE]Help you build/choose/upgrade your Computer

panu pong di ma fifit sir ? sa gaming po sir ...

sabagay dipende nga nmn sa tao siguro , dati kasi 1280 x 768 gamit kong resolution sa 20" lng na monitor , kya napa upgrade ako to be abe to have higher resolution in games para ndi streched at lalabo altho sa desktop and browsing mas bet ko nkababa ung resolution, I'm looking looking forward in monitor upgrade to get higher pero since wala pa ako experience sa mas mataas pang resolution bka pag sisihan ko kya tinanong muna kita since u have 32"

kumbaga sir kpag pla magmamalaking monitor , dapat alamin muna ung trip na resolution para di masayang ung video card that's capable of a higher one ?

you should also consider ung FPS.. the more na isstretch mo ung resolution the lower FPS ang makukuha mo.. ung 32" ko ang maximum reso nito is hanggang 1920x1080.. which is for HDTV katumbas nya ay 1080p.. masyado ng maliliit ung txt nya at icons kaya sinet ko sa average settings like 720p katumbas ay 1280x768 d2 sakto lahat and normal ang icons and readable ang mga texts..

pagdating naman sa gaming some of the latest games are already set sa best resolution na kaya ng monitor and GPU mo to get high FPS and to avoid laggy scenarios..

ah un mga crossfire ganon ?? hindi kaya mag lag sya??

ang target nya mag hanap ng 2nd hand na atleast sapphire 7770 eh

i'm getting 30 to 40 FPS in crossfire gamit ung laptop ko with intel core 2 duo .. im using built in graphics and i can play it smoothly.. ngayon sa setup ko im getting 200 FPS in max settings haha

Re: [ADVISE]Help you build/choose/upgrade your Computer

Good Eve mga Boss... Papabuo sana ako ng rig lng. Wag na isama monitor. For gaming po, like NBA 2k12, SFxTK, BF3, COD MWF. Not more than 21k po siguro. Sa enigma ko po balak bumili. Yun lng kasi available na store dito sa amin. Tapos tanong na din tungkol sa monitor, kung anong magandang monitor. Gusto ko sana yung wall mounted. Not more than 5k. Tapos game controller na din. Yung compatible sa NBA 2k12 at SFxTK. Yung d gaanong kamahalan. Hehe. Thanks In Advance.

Up ko lang boss. Natabunan na yata eh. Hehe.

kung gusto mo makatipid ka sa kuryente bumili ka ng PSU na true rated wag generic .. then ung memory cooler pde mo alisin un para makabawas din sa load..

thanks bro pano kung mas mababa na PSU gamitin kunwari mga 400, pwede pa rin kaya sa specs ko?. kelangan ba naka avr ba? ano pala gamit ng avr, tsaka meron suggestion din friend ko i undervolt ko daw, para saan un? thanks.

 

[youwish_ian]

Re: [ADVISE]Help you build/choose/upgrade your Computer

un mga Rig ba ngaun kaylangan ba tlagang naka AVR pa ?? ... or pede direcho plug na?

kaya gumagamit ng avr para maiwasan ang short circuit or macontrol ang voltage na pumapasok sa PC mo.. para nadin nde kagad masira ang mga pc specs agad just incase magkaron ng voltage prob..

thanks bro pano kung mas mababa na PSU gamitin kunwari mga 400, pwede pa rin kaya sa specs ko?. kelangan ba naka avr ba? ano pala gamit ng avr, tsaka meron suggestion din friend ko i undervolt ko daw, para saan un? thanks.

ang normal consumption ng whole rig ay more or less 300w.. sa setup mo a 450w antec PSU will do..
