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.

Hello mga pc/laptop experts, napapalitan po ba ang video card (discrete) ng laptop? GT635M gusto ko sana i upgrade sa GT740M or kung ano latest.. pwede ba?
 
Re: [ADVISE]Help you build/choose/upgrade your Computer

Walang katapat yan sa AMD.

Yung matitipid mo sa ODD gawin mong 1TB sa HDD.

boss ano ba mas maganda GTX 650 Ti 2GB or Radeon 7850 2GB? tsaka what if balak ko mag crossfire in the future, magkano naman idadagdag ko at hindi ba mag bottleneck un?
 
Re: [ADVISE]Help you build/choose/upgrade your Computer

Mas maganda yung HD 7850 kung hindi yung ng GTX 650 Ti Boost ang tinutukoy mo.

tsaka what if balak ko mag crossfire in the future, magkano naman idadagdag ko at hindi ba mag bottleneck un?

Kung balak mo yan papalitan mo pa yung mobo, graphics card, at psu :)
 
Re: [ADVISE]Help you build/choose/upgrade your Computer

been using xfx 7850 masaya parin ako sa performance. :)

The GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost sits snug between the Radeon HD 7850 ($180) and 7790 ($150), so how did it compare in terms of performance? Based on the 11 games that we tested with, the GTX 650 Ti Boost was just 2% slower than the Radeon HD 7850, which is good considering it's also slightly cheaper.

Thanks Yatten. Halimbawa mag SLI ako dapat ba identical? kung GTX 650 Ti Boost 2GB ang i-SLI ko kelangan yung kapartner nya GTX 650 Ti Boost 2GB rin?

Correct.

eh kung MSI Z77A-G45 Z77 Ivy Bridge CPU ang bilin kong motherboard compatible naman sa Core i5 yan dba, SLI compatible din ba yan? magkano ang price nyan?

Yup although kung ganyang mobo kukunin mo then much better palitan mo narin processor with a K or unlocked variant. Nasa 7.5k php sya more or less.
