[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.

ou sir kayang kaya po, overkill pa, kahti 1080p monitor mo kayang kaya, pwede ka pa mag 260x almost same lng ng performance pero less 1k sa price,

Kahit nga GT740/R7 250 puwede na sa NBA on 1080p. Pero kung gusto mo mas makatipid puwede ka maghanap ng HIS Radeon R7 260X 1GB edition, 3950 nga lang.

Salamat po mga sir

Inquire ka muna sa EasyPC kung saan ka pinakamalapit kung available ang bundles na yan (procie+mobo). Sa casing puwede na ang Aerocool or Techware nila under 1300 maliban na lang kung gusto mo talaga ang design at airflow. About naman sa video card kung meron ka pang cash to pull baka puwede pa yan gawing R9 380 or GTX960.

1080p Sir, nice kung ibabahin ko yung GPU mas maganda ba si Sapphire R9 270X kaysa kay
ZOTAC GeForce GTX 960 Mini ?

View attachment 224911

gtx960 pa din sir

1) is slightly faster
2) consumes less power, and is quieter (some or all will have the ability to turn off the fans completely in light usage)
3) has a hardware encoder to record or stream gameplay video with minimal performance drop (5% or less)
4) can improve performance slightly using MFAA for supported games (more coming)
5) has a few other new features most won't care about (H.265 encoder, voxel lighting support, 4K @60FPS via HDMI 2)

magpapalit ka pa psu kung mag 270x ka

 

[peterbenedick]

sa pag kakaalam ko nag kakaubusan na ng stock yang 3570k, magkano max budget mo sir? para mamaximize natin, konti na lang add mo kasi pede ka na mag gtx960

ahh okay po. daan siguro ko mamaya pchub paquote ako for those parts. mas okay po pala ang i3-4170 vs fx-6300? or sa compatibility?

The Intel Core i3-4170 3.7ghz is an excellent choice for a processor. Aside from having 4 threads that let it act like a quadcore processor, it is also energy efficient, so it can be used everyday for any function while having the grunt to play processor intensive games. Pretty affordable.
