[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 in Assembling/Building/Choosing/Upgrading

Sir help ulit. Gumamit nako ng HWmonitor feeling ko hindi efficient ang cpu cooler ko. Ok naman yung ventilation ng casing may 2 exhaust fans sa taas, 2 intake sa gilid, isa sa harap at isa likod, at isang exhaust sa baba. Yung temp ng GPU, mobo at HDD medyo ok pa pero hindi ang CPU. Hindi po ako nag-ooverclock.

Parang hindi naman normal na umaabot ng 100+c kapag gaming mode ako. May 2x biglang nagbluescreen PC ko at 2x or more nag freeze yung game. Nag-try na rin ako magset ng full fan speed sa BIOS pero same pa rin. Anu bang maganda ipalit na hindi lampas 1.5k?

Ito gamit ko cooler ngayun:

​

IDLE:

GAMING MODE: BATTLEFIELD 4. (Kakalaunch pa lang nang game ganyan na agad)

Nagpalit na ako ng cooler/heatsink kahapon. Sa EacyPC Makati ko binili kasi walking distance lang sa bahay.
​

​

Mas ok na yung temp kahit hindi accurate ang hw, di na umaabot ng 100+c kapag gaming mode kahit hindi ko tutukan ng air cooler ko sa kwarto sa tanghaling tapat. Gumamit na rin ako ng AMD overdrive para macheck thermal margin.

​

Salamat po sa tulong
