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.

Sir Genocide, tama, UPS nga 'yon. Nagtaka naman ako nung binack-read ko 'yung tinype ko at PSU ang nakalagay. :lol:

Sir, 'yung sa CPU na for MULTIMEDIA PURPOSES, actually, preferred ko 'yung sinabi ninyo na for "sound and video editing and for multi-tasking." So kapag ganyan po at 50k ang budget, ano mairerecommend niyo na build?

susundin ko nalang price sa pchub dahil mas mahal ang bili ng mga parts nung june. so yeah

Processor: Intel Core i7 980X - $601.00 > 25,722.80 PHP (di ko alam price nito ngayon since galing at bili sa ebay tong procie na ito last June at nabili ng ganito kamura. huling tingin ko ng price ay 54k pa.)
MB: MSI Big Bang-XPower LGA 1366 - P17800.00 *
RAM: 6gb (triple channel) ddr3-1600 G.Skill NQ - P5720
Monitor: LG 20" (E2040V) LED Backlit LCD - P6990.00
PSU: Corsair 1000W - P11250.00
Hard disk: WDC Caviar Black 1tb/64mb (WD1002FAEX) sata - P4390.00
VC's:
Sapphire HD 5870 1gb/256bit ddr5 Vapor X - P17990.00 **
Palit GTX 460 1gb/256bit ddr5 Sonic Platinum - P10460.00 **
TT Bach VX Gaming Chasis - P5340.00

----

P105,622.00

hiwalay pa ang keyboard at mouse (bundle kasi) Optical drive pati speakers.. since sila na ang bumili. :sigh:

**Kaya dalawa ang video card niya dahil sa Fuzion ang board niya.. She can use both Nvidia and ATI cards at the same time pero sino naman sa atin ang gagamit ng dalawang video card na yan nang sabay.
*Fuzion tong board na ito kaya pwede kang mag lagay ng ATI at Nvidia sa mga slot na yan nang sabay.

:beh:

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

gusto ko po bumili ng bagong HDD (for storage lang).. bale yung current HDD ko yung gagamin kong primary

seagate? samsung? or western digital?


malaki po ba yung difference sa performance ng 7200RPM sa 5400rpm na hard drive???

bale yung pinagpipiliaan ko po yung 1TB WD black o kaya yung 2TB WD green (5400rpm) or 2TB samsung (5400rpm)

all brands are good..
the difference between WD Black and WD Green is speed and power consumption..though hindi ko napapansin ang difference masyado ng 5400rpm sa 7200rpm and little ang difference rin ng power consumption..try looking at their website if you want.. http://www.wdc.com/en/products/index.asp?cat=3

if ako sayo..WD Caviar Green ang kunin ko..since i think you're not into benchmarking or watsoever naman.. :)
