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.

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.

besides, locked naman ang multiplier ng cpu mo... hindi naman mag-overheat yan. kung stock cooler lang gamit mo, there are CPU coolers na less than 2k pero delivers solid performance both cooling and acoustics.

Cge po balak ko na kasi mag upgrade to i5 8th or i5 9th gen,

Okay po ba for PUBG, DOTA2, Dual boot windows & ubuntu Programming (Android) & Minimal Photo & Video Editing? Salamat

Yes. Yung SSD baka kaya pa i-up to 240gb. Parang bitin kasi yung 120gb.

Good day po ask ko lng po anong magandang liquid cooler? DEEPCOOL gammaxx L240 or NZXT M22? Which one is the best jan sa dalawa. Naka i3 8th ang cpu ko balak ko Mga upgrade in near future sa i5 8th gen or i5 9th gen . Pa help naman po para sa pag pili ng cooler . Thanks po

I have an i5-8400 being cooled by the ID cooling SE-214L, which is an air cooler, and I'm getting 35-37c idle temps in a non-airconditioned room. Take into consideration the kind of weather we are having nowadays, I'd say, it's doing fairly ok naman. On load, I'm getting about 59-62c playing AAA games. Not bad na rin for an air cooler considering it's only P1550 brand new. hehe

Anyway, point is, AIOs are not always the best cpu coolers of choice. In terms of performance, kaya syang tapatan ng air coolers minsan nga mas maganda pa mag-cool ang air coolers eh, especially yung noctua nh-d15 at yung nh-u12s. It also depends on your build, baka naman kasi masikip at hindi kasya yung beefy and bulky air coolers or baka naman tatama pala sa ram, then that's the time na maganda gumamit ng AIO, it uses less space kasi. So weigh the pros and cons din. But to answer your question whether which one is better, deepcool gammaxx L240 or NZXT M22? Personal opinion ko lang po ito pero between a 240mm vs 120mm AIO, I'd go for the bigger one for better cooling performance. Hindi naman ganun ka-effective yung mga 120mm AIO, parang air cooler lang din ang cooling nyan, mas mahal pa. Bottomline, hindi sulit. Goodluck po sa upcoming i5 8th or 9th gen build!

Mukhang more than okay po yan build nyo na yan. Pero tama si sir programmr, if you can still stretch your budget a bit more, get a higher capacity ssd. 120gb is just about enough nowadays, pero minsan kinukulang pa rin. Go for at least a 250gb, better kung 500gb ssd. Tamang-tama, nag-mura na ang mga ssds ngayon.

DOTA 2
MK 11 (pag kaya)
CPU lang po ba ung 30k?

 

[gravitysan]

Mga boss, out of topic lang po. Saan po kaya ako makakabili ng m.2 ssd enclosure? Para magamit as portable ssd? Sa lazada po kasi puro galing china. Salamat po.

May nakita po ako sa DynaQuest, ganito po sya:

M.2 NGFF to USB3.0 Enclosure / Adapter Converter - PHP540



Not sure kung ito yung hinahanap nyo pero inquire na lang din po kayo sa kanila.

thanks po sa pag reply. huhu ang mahal pag 280mm ang kunin ko na nzxt. san ba ako makakamura? sa lazada?

well, they say that as long as the rams are of the same size, speed and timings, it will work. Howewver, oftentimes, it does not. Sometimes it will work but then you start getting random errors related to the memory. It is recommended you get the same brand and spec ram, better kung yung ram kits na para sure na walang errors or conflicts.

Pwede nyo rin naman i-try yung ram nyo kung same specs naman sila at brand lang pinagkaiba but don't be surprised if it doesn't work or if you start getting errors.

thanks po sa pag reply. huhu ang mahal pag 280mm ang kunin ko na nzxt. san ba ako makakamura? sa lazada?

Mahal nga po yan. lol Mag noctua na lang kayo ma'am! haha!

Try nyo po sa gilmore, mas mura doon. Or if you want to buy online, try tipidpc.

If you're not manila-based though and you have to factor in the shipping fee, baka nga mas cheaper pa kung lazada kayo bumili kasi minsan may free shipping and may vouchers. Check nyo na lang din po.

Mukhang di mo pinanood yung video na pinost ko about liquid coolers at air coolers especially noctua.
Summarize ko na nga lang
Ang liquid coolers may maintenance Yan after maybe a year or so... Yung mga noctua cooler, may sturdy back plate yan to support yung cooler kaya malabong madamage yung mobo mo... At, tulad una kong sinabi, hindi mo kelangan ng high end na cpu cooler kung hindi naman pwede overclock ang processor mo kasi hindi naman yun nag overheat. Lalo na at concerned ka rin pala sa cost
My recommendation for 3rd party cpu cooler: cooler master hyper 212x or cryorig h7. These 2 should be enough to keep your cpu temps to less than 60°c even at full load

Ano pong mga errors ang pede kong ma-experience kung ganon? At kung 8gb single stick po ram ko, hindi rin po ba pwede na ipartner ko sa kanya ay 16gb para 24gb lahat? Balak ko po kasing bumili pa ng isang monitor para makapag-youtube or vlc ako habang naggagaming kasi nasa 400mb na lang natitira sa ram ko at may fps drop sa games ko pag kasabay vlc. Gigabyte H310M S2H po mobo ko. Salamat po sa reply

 

[shinrenkiru]

Pa advise naman mga ka mobi
Magbuild sana ako ng Gaming PC 60k budget

Anu kayang pwede kung mag ROM ako 4 emulators (Nox/Mumu/BlueStacks)
Thanks

BSODs or maybe random reboots/shutdowns, I haven't really experienced memory related errors before as I've always bought mine in kits. hehe But from what I've heard and read, pinaka-common yata BSOD.

Pwede naman po i-mix 8gb with 16gb as long as same voltage, speed and timings sila. It will most probably work naman but yun nga, you might eventually start getting random errors. At least may idea ka na kung ano ang possible cause kung sakaling magka-error nga. If everything runs smoothly and you actually notice a difference in terms of perf, then be thankful na lang.

 

[themonyo]

okay po thanks. okay lang ba mag order sa lazada? mukahang ang hirap hanapin mga parts dito samin e

try mo kontakin: pchub, dynaquest, softbox, easypc, etc... kilala na yan sila na reliable sa online orders and shipping para may idea ka kung magkano dagdag
