[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.

Kung for gaming ang habol mo, go for Intel. Heto bigyan kita specs.

CPU: Intel Celeron G1610 2.6GHz (Dual Core) - PHP 1810.00
MOBO: Asrock B75M DGS - PHP 2530.00
RAM: G.Skill RipJaws X (Dual) 2x2gb ddr3 1600 CL9 - PHP 1930.00

Total: PHP 6270.00 ~ Sulit ka na sa RAM kasi branded na kesa sa generic ram lang. Pero kung di mo bet, go for generic ram. Sayo naman po kasi ung pera at nagbibigay lang po kame ng suggestion. Pero kung ako ang bibili sympre dun na ko sa branded na tatagal ang pyesa ko.

Lahat ng yan sa PCHub ko kinuha ung price. Kaya din ng integrated graphics nyan ung mga laro na nilalaro mo, yun nga lang sympre gapang nga lang. At alam ko ung Dragon nest kailangan talaga ata ng gpu nyan, not sure. Same with 2k13. Pero kung kaya mo mag i3 mas okay. Then pwede mo din yan lagyan ng gpu sa future.

Hmm..thanks sir..pero wla atang ripjaw d2 sa amin, cguro kingston na lg or corsair??hehe...pero ano po bang gapang ibig mong sabihin??lag talaga??smooth ba sa LOL e2 pero lag sa nba2k13??salamat po ulit

Yes dipa kasama ang add-ons. yes, no need na rin ang video card, not unless gusto mo talaga. Ang alam ko ang compatible graphics card dyan parang mag hybrid crossfire eh Radeon HD 6670 (around 2.5k) pero di ako sure kung yan nga talaga ang compatible para sa hybrid xfire ha.

eto ang pricelist ikaw nalang mag lista, baka may magustuhan kang iba, pwede mo dito i-base ang pricing. wala dyan ung mga generic na PSU at casing.

Gapang i mean medyo hindi kaya ng integrated graphics, pero kasi ung dito sa kapitbahay namen smooth naman ang takbo nung lol at 2k13. Minsan lang sya nag lag. Pero bumili sya ng 1gb Inno3d GT 630 ddr5, 128bit, for 2.7k ata. Ayun smooth na mga games nya. Pansamantala lang daw ung gpu na binili nya. Pero kung ako sayo eto nalang bilhin mong gpu na mura at okay sa performance Palit Geforce GTX 650 Ti 2GB DDR5 w/Boost (OC ED.) - PHP 7600.00

No prob sir. Nga pala pwede mo palang gawing 1gb lang ung Palit Geforce GTX 650 Ti Boost OC Ed. para mas makamura ka pa. Napakasulit ka yang GPU na yan. Tapos upgrade ka nlang ng cpu sa future or kung kaya nga talaga go for i3 + GTX 650 1gb na sinabi ko kanina. :salute:
