[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.

dipende kung anong klasseng school works gagawin mo. web / programming / 3d or movie rendering / cad. kase kung mga ganyang kabigat gagawin mo sa pc need mo atleast quadcore processor pra mabilis mag render.

medyo mahirap mag image editing sa laptop with that price range. need mo kase atleast 4gb memory (8gb mas ok) and isang factor medyo mainit laptop need pa nun good heat dissipating pads. pro kung gusto mo talaga laptop medyo angat mo pa budget mo.

Depende sa resolution yan kasi. Sa 1366x768 and below kakayanin yan most games on medium/high settings. For future games, it's hard to say dahil di natin alam kung gaano ka demanding ang mga lalabas na laro.



TIP: Get the mobo with the most features na pasok sa budget mo. Wag mo ipilit yung Asus kung may katapat naman na mas mura at maganda sa ibang manufacturer. Ganyan dapat diskarte pag magbubuo ng tipid budget na rig. Di porket Asus eh nakascore ka na sa magandang mobo.

Saan ka ba bibili? Parang panget naman kung yan lang ang choices mo, di sulit sa budget.



Mahigit sa 25k budget kailangan mo kung yan gusto mo na specs.



TipidPC.com either 2nd hand or overpriced na brand new makukuha mo dahil phased out na yan.

yan la po sana bos kac kulang budget ko pero yung G620 na processor ok na po kaya yon sa gaming thanks po

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

@Kangara09 if ever di mo need ng rendering prowers downgrade mo lang yan to intel pentium g630 halos 2.4k ibaba nyan. then ung chassis pili ka nalang ng generic case with psu with that build di mo mamax ung generic psu halos mga less than 200watts lang kakainin ng cpu mo so it wont cause any trouble to buy generic psu. pro if your safety conscious ill go with true rated psu. pro budget wise for the meantime you can use generic case with psu mga nasa 1k to 1.3k lang un with mouse and keyboard pa.

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

tanong lang mga idol. bottleneck ba and sapphire hd 7850 sa i5 3540?

7850 considered as mid range card. only high end cards or sli/xfire or quad sli/xfire. pro kung kaya mo pa go for the i7 k-series pra sure na walang bottleneck kahit anong card pa gamitin mo

 

[Kangara09]

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