[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.

Bossing, ganito po kasi yan, in terms of performance, oo kaunti lang ang lamang ng 560 Ti sa 5850, pero newer card po kasi ang 560 Ti. Kaya mas future ready xa compared sa 5850. Pagdating naman sa BF3, i don't think it's right to just buy something specific just for a single game. Madami pa naman pong games, in every game kasi, ibat iba din ang performance ng video cards. For example, in some cases, mas lamang ang 7850 sa 650 Ti but in some cases lamang ang 650 Ti. Sana po maunawaan nyo

Re: [ADVISE]Help you build/choose/upgrade your Computer

papaptulong lang po sana ako pumili ng laptop, di ko alam kung medyo out of topic to, kasi ang nababasa ko puro computers/desktops lang dito. hehe

iniisip ko po kasi bumili ng laptop and yung budget ko is nsa 30-35k.
nagcanvas na ako dun sa mga store sa gilmore and may pinagpipilian akong dalawang laptop ung asus k45vm and acer v3-471g

pareho sila naka ivy bridge intel core i5 tapos for the graphics nvidia GT 630 2gb at 750gb na storage. pero yung k45vm eh 8gb ram, yung sa acer v3 naman 4gb lang, di naman masyadong issue yung RAM sakin kasi pwede naman ipa-upgrade to 8gb din yung sa acer. ang pinagkaiba pa pala nila is yung chipset model according dun sa website ng asus,yung k45vm, HM76 express chipset, according naman sa website ng acer, yung v3-471g, HM77, mas highend yung HM77 dahil dun sa smart response technology tsaka RAID support pero kung common usage lang naman (nood videos, laro ng konting games, programming-java,wpf,asp.net,wcf,mvc) ramdam ba yung difference?

salamat sa magrereply!

Re: [ADVISE]Help you build/choose/upgrade your Computer

boss janzon matanong ko lang.. ano pala video card mo?

tsaka pala boss sabi ng pinsan ko in terms of GPU maganda daw talaga radeon kasi nvidia daw pangalan lang daw ung binabayaran.. ano masasabi mo boss? kaya parang gusto ko tuloy kumuha ng radeon kesa sa nvidia.. pa advice naman boss at paexplain.. hehe.. kaw lang maaasahan ko dito eh ! thanks

 

[Janzzon]

Re: [ADVISE]Help you build/choose/upgrade your Computer

boss janzon matanong ko lang.. ano pala video card mo?

Naka HD 6770 lang ako paps hehe.

tsaka pala boss sabi ng pinsan ko in terms of GPU maganda daw talaga radeon kasi nvidia daw pangalan lang daw ung binabayaran.. ano masasabi mo boss? kaya parang gusto ko tuloy kumuha ng radeon kesa sa nvidia.. pa advice naman boss at paexplain.. hehe.. kaw lang maaasahan ko dito eh ! thanks

Actually Nvidia at AMD ang naglalaban. GeForce at Radeon ang tawag ng dalawang manufacturer sa GPU nila.

Parehas yan maganda at ang deciding factor talaga ay ang presyo in relation to its performance.

Personally ganito ang ranking ko as of this writing kasama ang current market price:

HD 7000 vs. GTX 600

HD 7750 > GTX 650
HD 7770 < GTX 650 Ti
HD 7850 > GTX 660
HD 7870 > GTX 660 Ti
HD 7950 < GTX 670
HD 7970 > GTX 680

ask ko lang ulet ahah

yung asus p8z77-m pro po ba eh anong size ? mini atx po ba ?

mATX = Micro ATX

kasya kaya yun sa Nzxt guardian 921 rb ?
mas maganda po ba un kesa phantom 410 ?

Personal choice ko ang Phantom 410

nga po pala yung psu pong gagamitin ko eh for hd7770

HD 7770 lang pala, kahit anong matino na PSU pede yan. Ambaba lang ng power consumption nyan
