[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.

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

- I could probably build something better compared sa build mo if focus is on what you need and not what you want. As I mentioned, spend money wisely.
- There's no such thing as future proofing. Only preparing for the next 2-3 years as technology is getting better not worse.
- Alamin mo yung store kung san ka bibili dahil di pareparehas ang offerings at policies when it comes to freebies and discounts.
- Kung wala ka discount sa Tt eSports na keyboard/mouse then get buy it at all. I personally use a mechanical keyboard and I will never go back to using rubber domes.
- Mag Haswell ka na.
- H100i is a waste of money when the Swiftech H220 is already available. Otherwise just go with a heatsink which performs better at a cheaper price.
- Just get the GPU that best supports the softwares you are using. AMD knocks Nvidia down when it comes to GPGPU and OpenCL tasks. CUDA is useless if the software doesn't support it.
- As I mentioned sa earlier post, get the aftermarket fans at a later time.
- Get a better OEM sa PSU. The ones you picked are decent but they are not the best when there's a better one for a cheaper price.
- If you don't play higher than 1080p resolution then wag ka na mag SLI/XFire. Just get the best GPU you can afford. Otherwise it's a waste of money lalo na at may stuttering.
- Wala ka pang SSD.
- If you insist in doing an SLI/XFire later on then better get the a 16x/16x mobo now and a higher wattage PSU.

- yes sir hopefully umabot at makasabay ako sa mga update upto 5 years or so.
- sa ngayon nag canvass ako sir is sa PCHub wala kasi ako iba mahanapan ng full list ng item at best cheap store, pede ba kayo mag mention?.
- what is the cheap mechanical keyboard & mouse sir? yung Tt eSports (999 in PCHub) and wala na ako iba alam usually dati gamit ko lang lagi is generic MK100 na kb & mice.
- Haswell? baka sir tumaas ang target budget ko sir? di kaya?, tsaka sir sabi sabi huh, usually kasi 3d rendering ang ginagawa ko at photo editing heavy use usually, mas prefer daw mag Hyper Trending? kasi ang intel Single . para tuloy nag open sa isip ko yung AMD 8350 + MSI GTX 760 Twi Froz . usually Vray Adv (CPU) Vray RT (GPU) yup sir OpenCL ang Radeon.
- sir suggestion nyong PSU? im not going to to SLI anymore. big no no na ako sa SLI for my stuff. wag daw gagawin yun for my work. masasayang lang at isa pa hindi naman ako heavy user mag game. usually nga ang laro ko lang is LoL , if mapagtripan ko ituloy ang Tera Online which mid-end ang requirement. at Krysis 3 for Fraps testing lang. i dont play FPS sir for testing use only.
- sir VS239H-P 23" IPS ang monitor na gamit ko, pede naman na 1080P tama sir?.
- wala pambili ng SSD ang mahal kasi for the meantime na lang muna yung 500 Western Blue.
- sir pm sent ako sayo. pakita ko na lang yung mga hinagilap ko.

No prob pafs. Anong games ba ang mga lalaruin mo? Kasi may build in gpu na yang A series ng AMD. Pero pwede mo din naman bilhan ng gpu yan pag nagkabudget ka na.​

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

mga sir help naman... di ko pa sinusubukan kasi baka masira PC ko e.
Yung specs ng PC ko nasa signature ko po.
On that specs, meron na kong Kingston HyperX ram, 1600Mhz at 4gb single stick. Kaso medyo lag kasi sa 2k13, then may nagsuggest saken na bili ako ng ram na pair daw. Nung nagkapera at extra time ulit bumili ako G-Skill ripjawsX 2X2gb na 1866Mhz at ok na po yung problem ko.

Bali yung tanong ko po, kung pwede ko bang idagdag pa yung HyperX ko na ram sa PC (mix ko dun sa dalawang G-Skill)? May advantage po ba yun? Kasi sayang naman, wala naman akong ibang mapaglagyan nun nakatiwangwang lang dito. TIA po sa sasagot...

Ung HyperX mo ba anong mhz nun? 1600? ang alam ko dapat same mhz sila kung gusto mong ilagay ulit. Pero not sure ah. try mong ilagay then download ka nung cpu-z tignan mo kung basahin ung isang ram na nilagay mo. or punta ka sa my computer then properties kung binasa. Pag hindi dapat 1866 din ang ram.​

Got the PM. Get the AMD build na quote sayo regardless kung gaming or for work ang purpose ng rig mo dahil mas balanced kesa dun sa Intel build.
