[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.

Hi po,
Need your expertise for upgrade, as of now, may pc akong connected to 100 clients, server for employees monitoring, quad core lang po gamit ko
pero marami pa akong applications na kelangang gamitin ng sabay sabay
> VM for pfsense firewall
> Netsupport Manager
> Net Monitor for Employees
> Connectify Dispatch Pro
> LanSchool
> Photoshop
> Adobe AE
> Skype Chrome Firefox
> MSoffice 2010,
> Biometrics
> etc

Ito po ang current specs ko (32bits)
Motherboard: G31T-M7
Processor: 2 Quad CPU Q8400 @2.66GHz (4CPUs)
Physical Memory : 4096MB DDR2, maximum na
Video Card: Radeon X1550 Series
Storage: 3 x 500gb HDD
Lan Card for 4 static lines, internet connection


Yan po kasi ang naiwan dito sa dating IT namin
Kaya kelangan ko po mag upgrade, naiyak na talaga memory at processor ko, naabot ng 90° ang temperature
Gusto ko sanang ioverclocked kaso wala akong magandang cooler fan
Ano po kayang magandang specs kasi more on high end software at multitasking ako
TIA po

Mga boss may kilala ba kayo kayang magretrieve ng file sa hdd na di na nadedetect sa pc at may nag titick sa loob ng hdd?

Mga boss may kilala ba kayo kayang magretrieve ng file sa hdd na di na nadedetect sa pc at may nag titick sa loob ng hdd?

malapit na bumigay yang hdd mo ah (or bumigay na )
may DIY solution ako pero basically, junk na pagkatapos yung hdd mo. magagamit mo 1x para makuha files... pag-reboot... patay na
pero pwede mo pa dalhin sa mga data recovery companies, pwede nila isalvage yung hdd mo by replacing the mechanical parts... pero i smell gastos
gusto mo subukan DIY solution?

Mas okay po ba kung brand new na hdd storage ang bibilhin kesa 2nd hand? Nasa magkano po kaya price range ng 500GB brand new?

Ahh. Okay thanks sir. Halimbawa sir mag upgrade ako, anong upgrade path nung build ko? Sa ram, alam ko pwede mag-add pa ulit ng 8gb. Ano pa po?

unahin mo SSD. you can either buy the typical 2.5" form factor na SSD with 120gb or more of capacity... or an NVME m.2 ssd ito siguro unahin mong upgrade.
sunod RAM... pag bumaba next year...
maybe a better video card depending on your needs

Okay sir thanks po. Yung cpu ba sir pwede ko iupgrade to ryzen 7 kung sakali?

 

[themonyo]

well, yes... pero abangan mo na lang siguro yung 2nd generation ng ryzen which supports higher clock speeds
pero why do you need all those extra cores/threads?
bihira pa naman mga games ngayon na gumagamit ng lagpas 4 cores...

3d rendering sir e. Balak ko kasi ipang-work at game kaya need ko din ng higher cores/threads na cpu.

ayun
pero kung kasya sa budget mo eh di mag r5 1600 (around 11k) ka na lang with 6cores/12 threads
sulit ka sa rendering power nyan

Mga IDOL need your expertise, kakabili lang ng Ryzen setup: CPU is Ryzen 5 1600, Mobo is MSI B350 Mortar Artic, RAM is GSkills Trident Z RGB 3200mhz 8gbx2 Silver (F4-3200C16D-16GTZ). updated na bios. ang prob is the memory is running at 2400mhz only. pano kaya sir magagawang 3200mhz? wala pa ko mysado ginagawa. baka may nakagawa na sa inyo, SALAMAT ule.

Salamat sa mga tumulong, pero sa kasamaang palad fail hehe, naka ilang try nadin kame to change timings and voltage base on forums and videos na nakita namen, di tlga namen makuha tamang timpla, si gskills dn nag email nadin, prang bottomline hndi pa tlga compatible yung RAM as of now. i hope may makakita nung post ko baka sakaling may nakagawa na na ibang member dto. SALAMAT
