[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.

hingi lang ulit ako ng tulong. Salamat boss themonyo sa set up nabuo ko na kahapon.
Problema ko naman ngayon network drivers ng mobo ko Gigabyte B360M D3H. wala ko masearch sa net.
tapos may nakita ako ayaw naman mainstall kahit naka .exe file sya.

Nasubukan mo na ba sir schrismo na gumamit ng Driverpack?

 

[lexoter]

Pwede ko pala iupgrade GPU nitong Laptop? wala kasi ako makitang tutorial sa net na upgradable pala GPU ng Asus ROG GL553vd. saka may concern lang din ako sa temp ng CPU pag nag lalaro ako like GTA5 Naabot na kasi ng 70 ung temp nya.. ano kaya possible solution don?

edit: may VACUUM COOLER na din po ako gamit pero still mataas pa din temp. ng CPU pag nasa gaming na ako pero pag normal browsing nasa 50-60 lang..
NOTE: hindi po aircon ung location ko. pero naka tutok naman ung electric fan sa laptop buko pa sa VACUUM COOLER.

Check mo kung nakakabit ng ayos ang cooler ng cpu mo, baka maluwag or reapply ka ng thermal paste, baka tuyo na.

yung mobo may kasamang CD yan for the mobo and chipset drivers... dapat nandun na lahat yun... at kung wala kang cdrom drive para makuha mo yung laman at wala kang mahiraman, meron sa website ni gigabyte.
https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B360M-D3H-rev-10#support-dl
at dahil wala kang network card driver, pwedeng maki-rent sa computer shop or kahit sa phone mo lang. gamit ka lang ng usb otg or usb cable to get the downloaded files from your phone to your pc.

well, i'm not really sure pero most kasi ng mga high end gaming laptop na lumabas these past few years gumagamit ng MXM version ng GPU. though mahirap maghanap sa ebay at napakamahal lalo na kung mga high end gpu yung ilalagay mo. i've encountered these MXM cards on Alienware, MSI, Gigabyte, Acer and ASUS...

70degs natataasan ka? ano ba ineexpect mong temps? ang mataas na temps nasa +90degs. ginagamit mo yung pc eh... mataas cpu at gpu usage, natural na uminit yan.

pwede naman. check mo lang yung PSU mo kung true rated para hindi sumabog yang system mo dahil sa power instability.

salamat boss themonyo kala ko kailangan ko na magworry sa ganon kataas na temp. sa desktop kasi di ako naabot sa ganon kataas pag naglalaro kaya nung nagtransfer sa laptop nagworry agad ako.. and also regarding sa upgrade sa GPU wala din ako makitang tutorial kay pareng google. then nagsearch din ako regarding GPU upgrade ng ganitong model. wala din ako makita.. palage lang upgrade sakanya is RAM at SSD.

 

[jelolz]

Pa advise naman po Ryzen CPU build po for 30k budget po for gaming and for office po thank you po

PS: Sa isang shop sana sa gilmore para minsanan na un sa price

hinanap ko model ng laptop mo, wala nga MXM... soldered sa mobo both cpu at gpu kaya walang upgrade path yan.

Pa advise naman po Ryzen CPU build po for 30k budget po for gaming and for office po thank you po

PS: Sa isang shop sana sa gilmore para minsanan na un sa price

i assume meron ka ng peripherals (monitor, keyboard, mouse)
cpu: AMD Ryzen 5 2400G = 8840
mobo: Asrock AB350M Pro 4 (AM4) B350 = 4430
ram: 8gb (dual) ddr4 2666 Tforce Dark = 5480
ssd: 240gb GEIL Zenith R3 SSD sata = 3990 (pwedeng 120gb lang)
hdd: 1tb Toshiba 32mb 7200rpm hdd = 2100 (pwedeng walang ssd at hdd na lang)
psu: EVGA 500BV, 500watts PSU, 80 bronze = 2440
case: Tecware Nexus M TG = 1500
Total = 28,780

prices are from PC Hub's online price list

dapat sinabi mo agad
cpu: AMD Ryzen 3 2200G = 5670
mobo: Asrock AB350M Pro 4 (AM4) B350 = 4430
ram: 8gb (dual) ddr4 2666 Tforce Dark = 5480

case: Tecware Nexus M TG = 1500
Monitor: 20" LG 20MP48A, LED, IPS, vga = 3900
Total = 27980

kung ryzen 5 2400g
31,150

kung di talaga kaya lumagpas ng 30k, pwede mo tanggalin yung SSD or balik sa 240gb SSD at walang HDD.

patulong naman ng monitor. ngayon tuloy na tuloy na pagbili ko monito. meron bang 20k budget na good monitor?

LG 29 inch 29UM58 / 29UM58-P 2560x1080 Ultrawide ok ba to? or do i need 144hz?

by may kasi bibili nako. dahil dko na alam pano ayusin tong monitor ko laging nagbblack screen ng ilang segundo tpos sisindi ulit. tinry ko na ibang monitor pero ok naman. so balak kong bumili bago ngayon.

this is not a PUBG optimization thread... unless gusto mo mag-upgrade ng PC mo to gain reasonable playing performance in PUBG.

magkano budget mo? kelangan mo pa ba ng monitor, keyboard and mouse? any other preference?

there are a few factors to consider when choosing a monitor...
video card = either AMD or Nvidia if you want adaptive sync
adaptive sync = gsync or freesync. mahabang paliwanag... pero prevents screen tearing and reduce stuttering.
type of panel = IPS, VA, TN
TN = kung mahilig ka sa fast paced FPS games with very fast response time (1~2ms), go for a TN panel... though color accuracy and reproduction is not as good. also bad viewing angles.
IPS = has the best color accuracy but has the slowest response time... pero most IPS panels nowadays are around 5ms... which is not bad at all... the best and most expensive maybe have around 4ms of response time. best use for professionals that work in colors like photo and video editing. has around 178deg of viewing angle.
VA = a good transition between the 2 panels above. around 3~4ms response time and great color reproduction and good viewing angle.
grey to grey (GTG) response time = Its basically the time it takes for a pixel to change from one color value to another. Faster response time means less ghosting. already discussed above for case use.
aspect ratio = luma is 4:3, current standard 16:9, utlrawide (21:9) [should be 7:3 ], 16:10 [should be 8:5 ]... these are purely based on your personal preference
refresh rate = 60hz (standard), 75hz; 90hz; 120hz; 144hz; 160hz; 240hz... also, this will be based on your personal preference. this is supposed to define how much frames your monitor can produce for your eyes to see. ako, i can't seem to distinguish anything above 90hz

buy what you see is good looking
it is a peripheral kaya you can spend as much or as little as you want...

Grabe boss nosebleed ako. Konti lang knowledge ko kapag karating sa hz ng mga monitor. Yup agree din ako sayo. May limit mata natin karating sa hz. More on offline game lang naman ako boss. Sa ngayon kasi naka msi rx480 ako pero nagbabalak ako mag 1070 pero not sure pa kelan. Kasi may mas priority na kasi ako ngayon. So yun naguguluhan din ako kung ano ba talaga monitor bibilhin ko. Ang prefer ko kasi good for gaming then widescreen monitor. Or mas malaki sa 24inch.

hindi ko na nga isinama yung "curved" display at yung radius nila
ako kasi, i use my pc mainly for work and i do a lot of CAD and other technical drawing stuff... hindi maganda mag-edit kung curved ang display mo sa mga technical drawings kaya secondary lang ang gaming. i can do with 60hz... but i would prefer something around 75~90hz refresh rate atsaka 1440p na reso. if i could afford a 3440x1440 much better... pero, di naman masama mangarap
forgot to mention kung balak mo mag-adaptive sync... Gsync is usually around 10k more expensive than it's Freesync equivalent.

Ok lang ba wala ng gsync or freesync. Nkakasakit pa sa ulo ahaha. Ang sakin naman kasi basta makapaglaro lang ok na. Malabo pa naman ako sa 1070. Kasi may priority narin kasi ako ngayon. May nakita ako almost 20k.tsaka ayaw kosa curved monitor xD BenQ 27 GW2765HT LED IPS QWHD 2560 x 1440p 4ms. 1440p sya xD

pag walang gsync, usually freesync capable na yan... which is pares sa current gpu mo . syempre pag nagpalit ka ng nvidia, di mo na mapapakinabangan ang freesync.

so need ko tlaga. with gsync of freesync xD. sige boss maraming salamat. check ko yung benq na nakita ko. hindi sya freesync T_T or gsync. ang hirap mag decide ahaha. san ako pwede tumingin ng mga monitor boss?
