[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.

Kung ganyan gagawin mo it's best to have a fan controller.

sir thanks po ng marami...sir hmm pwede po ba yung intel i5 3470 sa mobo na yan?and if ill add my budget to 35k kasi bbgyan daw ako ng brother ko pandgdag to make my budget for 35k po...kung matuloy po yun pwede po pagawa ulit ng another build po para i can compare, with intel i5 3470 procie po..advisable rin po ba yung SSD?kasi sabi daw po ng friend ko mabilis daw..is it true?

thanks po ng marami sir and sorry po sa super sa istorbo...have a great day po..

sir add on lang po...if i will do SLI for the gtx 660 in the near future what po ba kelangan?is Antec VP550P ok na po b?at sir alin brand mas maganda the gainward gtx 660 or yung palit gtx 660 po?yung tatagal po ng couple of years..
thank you very much and sorry po sa istorbo..

Stick with the build I gave, palitan mo lang yung cpu tapos dagdagan mo nalang yung SSD na gusto mo.

Parehas maganda yan. Gainward is a division of Palit, same owner lang sila.

You will need about 700W for 2-way SLI ng GTX 660.

QC pala, dayuhin mo na Gilmore lapit lang yan at mas makakamura ka.

tsaka Sir, may nabasa ako n post nyu nung ang back read ako, sabi nyu dun sa post hindi porket nka quadcore malupit n agad ung PC for gaming.. dun po sa budget ko na 45k kac gusto ko makakuha ng malupit talga na graphics card, at trip ko tlga yung asus saber tooth Z77, di ko lng alam kung pwede ung mga naiisip ko, at kung anong procie ang pwede dun na kayang kaya mag pasmooth ng game experience ko.. pati sa ram at storage di ko din alam kung ano b dapat malaki.. paxencia n po.. salamat po sa pagtulong at pagsagot sa mga tanong ko pati n sa iba pang mga tao dito sa symbianize.. =)

Malaki kakainin sa budget mo kung pipilitin mo yung Asus SABERTOOTH Z77. If you have limited budget kailangan mo intindihin na importante ang ibalance yung components para makuha mo yung best possible performance. Features ang hinahanap mo sa mobo at hindi porma

Ikaw na bahala kung saang store ka sa Gilmore. Usually kung saan yung store na pinagbilhan mo ng majority of the components sila nag offer ng free assembly tapos pede ka manood.

For a 45k budget eto aabutin mong specs for gaming + overclocking capability @ PC Hub Gilmore although hindi ka naman limitado sa store na yun

CPU: Intel Core i5-3570K 3.4 GHz PHP 9999.00
MOBO: ASRock Z77 Extreme4 PHP 6800.00
RAM: G.Skill RipJawsX 8GB 2x4 DDR3 1600 CL9 PHP 2180.00
HDD: Any 1TB SATA3 PHP 3600.00
ODD: Any DVDRW PHP 900.00
PSU: Seasonic M12II 520W 80+ Bronze PHP 3100.00
ATX: NZXT Source 220 PHP 2270.00
GPU: Palit GTX 660 Ti Jetstream 2GB DDR5 PHP 14200.00
HSF: CM Hyper 212 EVO PHP 1400.00

TOTAL: PHP 44449.00

You should be able to max most games at 1920x1080 and overclock the CPU to 4.2 GHz without problems.

cenxa na ts. eto sure na..

maramng salamat po sir! tungkol nga po pla dun sa grahic card na palit gtx 660 ti jetstream magandang klase n po ba un?

Opo.

at pagdating po sa pag overclock ng CPU at GPU pwede ko n cla i-overclock sa binigay nyo pong specs?

Opo.

ilang percent po na pwedeng magfail? basta maraming fan pa ung ilagay ko ok na po?

It should not fail unless maling mali talaga ginagawa mo. Maraming guides dyan nagkalat sa internet.

o magdadag dag pako ng kaunting buudget pra mas maganda ung cooling system sa cpu?

Di na kailangan. For someone like you I don't think you'd go for extreme overclocking. Magsasayang ka lang ng pera.

sa 2500 po ba may mganda ng klase ng cooling system for cpu n pasok dun sa build ko po? salamat po ulit!

Maganda na yung cooler na nilagay ko dun. Nagkalat din ang review nun kaya isearch mo nalang kung duda ka pa.
