[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.

Hmm thanks po.

Proc: Intel I3 2120
Mobo: Asrock H61M- HVS
GPU: Sapphire HD 6670
RAM: 4gb Kingston DDr3 1333
HDD: WD 500gb
PSU: Hec Cougar ST-500W ATX PS

Ok na ba to? Kakayanin nba ng PSU na yn khit mag upgrade ako in the future ng GPU or CPU? Tska ok na po ba ang SECURE 650VA UPS?

Kaya yan. Kahit ang rated power ng PSU na yan ay 400W tatakbo parin. As long as single at mid range GPU ang build mo, in most cases papatak lang ng 300W ang consumption.

Sheh007 said:
para lng po sa konting dagdag kaalaman hehe may mga nag tatanong din kasi sakin ng build na budget wise eh .. anong GPU ba ang pede ko ma recommend kung 19 - 20 inches lang ang monitor na gagamitin ?

20" is 1600x900, HD 7750 ok parin dyan. Better GPU is of course okay.

Mga sir, ito na po bibilhin ko bukas. Kakasya po ba ito sa Emaxx Rebel M-ATX na casing? Tska need ko opinion niyo kung ok na to or my kailangan pa baguhin. Thanks.

Good to go na yan. Take note yung bolded part sa ASRock H61M-HVS, ibig sabihin ng M dyan ay mATX mobo yan which will fit in a mATX case.

@genocide

Imho, it's either you recommend an SB/IB build or advise na antayin nalang yung Trinity lineup ng AMD. AMD FX series talaga ay tataob sa SB/IB pag gaming.

Another thing to note is marami pa mas magandang PSU kesa sa GX series ng CM. OEM nyan is Seventeam which is said to be making PSUs with quality almost the same as generic ones.

And then IBP is only as good as when CM Hyper 212 Plus/EVO came out years ago. At that price range, mas ok ang temps ng mga yun.

Lastly, ok ang H77/B75 chipset para sa non-OC build.

Kaya naman sa budget na yan ang G620/G630 + HD 7750 + 18.5" LED

In a gaming perspective, parang i3 SB lang performance nyan. HTT lang naman wala sa G620/G630.

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

which is better i5 3450 or i5 2500k? ung 2500k po naooverclock anu naman po ang laban ng 3450?thanks po

jiang · Jul 26, 2012

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

3450 = lower tdp (77 tdp) pro usually 80 tdp
2500k = higher tdp (95 tdp) then pag na oc pa tataas pa

pro performance wise halos same lang yan. pro once na oc na ung 2500k alam na. pro base sa mga forums/articles medyo mas maiinit ang ivy kesa sa sandy eh not sure lang mukang same lang naman pag idle at full load.
