[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.

merun ba sir 5k tapos 5gb sya?

 

[themonyo]

I guess 10-15k will do. Wala naman ba bearing if I keep my current Mobo and Ram since DDR3 lang siya?

wala. generally, DDR4 gives around 5-10% better performance during memory operations on real world performance. but it's barely noticeable
get the geforce 1060 6gb.

gaming cpu po worth for 30k? yung pang dota2 at maraming pang online games sa steam

CPU: i5 6500 = 9,640
MoBo: ASRock H110M-HDV Micro-ATX = 2,890
RAM: Crucial Ballistix Sport LT 8GB Single DDR4 2400 = 2,350
PSU: Seasonic S12II 520W 80PLUS Bronze = 2,650
HDD: WD Blue = 2,290 (or Sandisk 240gb SSD = 3,200)
Case: NZXT Source 210 Window = 1,850 (or any other case na type mo)
GPU: Palit GTX 1050 Ti StormX 4GB = 7,400
Total = 29,070

Wala p po palang case.. pasama ndn po ung case saka suggest nlng dn po kaya ng gpu na pwede po sa nsabi kong pg gmt ng unit. Or kht umabot po ng 20k.. salamat po

GPU: Palit Geforce 1050 = 5,900
Case: Tecware F3 Mini = 1,100
Total = 20,590

may life span po ba ang ssd bago masira? depende daw po sa kung gano na kalaki ang nawiwrite nya? totoo po ba yun?

meron. tignan mo yung specs sa website ng SSD mo or other sites that review those products.

merun ba sir 5k tapos 5gb sya?

wala. 1050 (2gb walang Ti) around 5,900 ang price

kaya nga SSD's are recommended mostly for boot drive only para konti lang write nya at para tumagal nga sya. though, most SSD's generally have at least 5 years of life span based on maximum write access. kung limited naman mga sine-save mo na data dun, it would still last a long time.
may mga bago na ngang model ngayon na napakataas na ng write threshold nya... around 10-30% lang ang currently circulating sa market... pero syempre, mahal

recommendation ko:
SSD: 120gb lang for windows and other most commonly used apps/games (sandisk 2050, kingston 2200)
RAM: add an extra 4gb (900-1k)
GPU: kung isasagad mo sa 10k na gpu lang, geforce 1060. pero kung iko-consider mo pa idagdag sa upgrade mo yung mga nabanggit ko sa taas, either geforce 1050ti (7400) or 1050 (5900) lang depende kung alin pa magkakasya sa budget

depende sa usage mo eh
kung maglalaro ka lang, you're better off sa i5. pero kung may mga programs ka na nakikinabang ng 8 cores, then go for the i7. ang advantage ng bagong i5 (haswell) na yan ay lower power draw against the older generation. other than that, lamang yun i7

yung mobo mo is too expensive in my opinion. pwede ka na mag-Z170 sa ganyang price range
Gigabyte GA-Z170M-D3H = 6,200
MSI Z170A PC Mate = 6,590
Z170 has more features than a B150 motherboard. kahit di ka mag-overclock, supported nya ang higher memory frequencies, more PCIE lanes, M.2, more sata ports... and others (like overclocking)
also, try considering a 2TB HDD. malaki ang files ng video editing. in my opinion, mabilis mong mapupuno yang 1tb ng raw vids mo even before editing.
