[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.

Mababa pa yung GPU na nalagay mo para sa 23k setup na yan.

It's up to you kung susundin mo to but this is better than the one you made.

MON: BenQ GL950 18.5" 1366x768 LED PHP 3650.00

TOTAL: PHP 23500.00

Better CPU, MOBO, RAM & GPU for the same price. Ihabol mo nalang yung fans pwede naman yan isingit at a later time.

Nag price drop pala ung i3 3220, PHP 5480 kc to dati nung nakita ko

,wala po kasi ako tiwala sa quality ng mga motherboards ng asrock eh, malaki po ba difference ng 1600Mhz at 1333Mhz RAM?

Janzzon said:
Yan hirap pag pirated OS ang nakasanayan wala tuloy alam sa retail version hehe. Karamihan ata di alam yan. Ang professional version naman kasi pang office/business use na yan. Ang pambahay at personal use talaga ay home premium version, standard na yan sa ibang bansa.

If you want a genuine version go for Windows 7 Home Premium nasa 4k range otherwise maraming cheap pirated OS na all-in-one na nagkalat dyan around 100php or less.

Madalas kasi dito professional/ultimate daw ang the best where in fact walang pinagkaiba yun sa home premium kung pareparehas lang pirated.

Yung pirated OS na lng bibilhin ko sir :lol:

Desktop syempre.

Magkaiba yung walang alam sa walang tiwala. So saan ka dun? Kung ikaw yung tipong Asus at Gigabyte lang ang alam na mobo manufacturer malamang di ka talaga familiar sa ASRock.

Magkaprehas lang presyo nila which is why you should get the higher 1600 one.

Sa sobrang hina ng videocard baka mas malakas pa built-in graphics ng processor.

Di balanse yung build kung lahat yan brand new mo kukunin.
