[ADVISE] Help in Assembling/Building/Choosing/Upgrading Your Computer

OhNow3P · Aug 23, 2008

Hi guys,

I started this thread to help everyone wanting a new computer. All you need to do is post the following:

Code:

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 sa lahat ng mga ka sb tanong ko lang po.,
kapag madami bang fan sa casing ng pc mo mataas bang mag consume ng kuryente yung mga fan?

den anu pong maganda na casing para sa pc? THERMALTAKE V4
o THERMALTAKE din xa kaso d ko alam basta malaki yung fan nya sa side ehehe kasing prce ng v4 sabi ni kuya na nagtitinda THERMALTAKE MASTER daw :| wala ako makita sa net ehehe
tapos
nu po maganda na mobo yung ASUS o ASROCK?
den sa hard disk samsung o western digital? ehehe salamat po

hindi po mataas magconsume ang fans lalu na kung wala naman itong mga leds, processor, video card yan ang malalakas sa power consuming.

yes, ayus naman ang TT v4 yung master hirap nga humanap, wala bang pinakitang product sayu yung shop? magkanu po ba budget sa casing?

sa Asus naman po ako in terms of quality pero mas mahal sa Asrock, Asrock ok rin very econo sa price pag dating sa mga tipid ang budget.

ashlot said:
