[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.

sir ang bibigay ko lang build sayo for amd is fx series pantapat dyan sa build ng intel, kaso ang problema obsolete na ang AM3+, wala ka nang upgrade path, kung mkakapag antay ka pa next year release ng am4 (AMD for future zen-based CPUs) maganda ganda na laban ng amd build

sir vheryoness, ngaun ko lang napansin na hindi supported ang DDR3 1866 sa Asrock H97M Anniversary ung Ram Gskill Ripjaws X 8gb 4gbx2 DDR3 1866 CL9. Madodowngrade siya to 1600. Bili na lang ako ng DDR3 1600 kaysa DDR3 1866 para mabawas konti ng presyo? o ibang mobo n lng na supported DDR3 1866? (neglible ba ung 266 na difference?)

eto ung build:
Processor: Intel Core i5-4460 - 8590.00
Ram Gskill Ripjaws X 8gb 4gbx2 DDR3 1866 CL9 PHP 2700.00
hdd, 1TB WDC Blue - 2500php
Sapphire R9-380 NITRO 4gb 256bit ddr5 - PHP 10699.00
Motherboard lga1150 ASRock H97M Anniversary PHP 3750.00
Psu Seasonic S12II-620 620W 80PLUS Bronze - 3150.00

 

[nubbest]

^with that kind of specs, the loss from 1866 to 1600 is too little to notice. even an amd apu which relies a lot on ram only has about 5 fps improvement.

 

[yuri22rivera]

Pa help din po ako anu ba mas ok sa dalawa sapphire r9 380 nitro 4gb o ung sapphire r9 380 dual x 2gb same price lang kasi sila kaso ung isa 2gb lng tnx po

Advantage ng may higher vram ay better performance on higher resolution displays
Yung dual-x, branding lang ng fan/cooling nila

SIr comment lang ako base sa knowledge ko, para sakin ok build mo, yung sa ram clock onti nlng nman dadagdag mo sa price for future upgrade nadin yun or para mas madali ibenta incase, idodowngrade nman yan kusa ng board kaya dont need to worry, sa pagkakaalam ko ok din channels nyan. eto and hndi ako msyado angsure sa board ata is mas mahal na pag yugn supported na is 1866 and hndi ko sure kung supported din ng cpu mo. ayun lang check mo narin lang. pero para sakin overall nice build na yan.

Just like what sir vheryoness said, install dx9. You can download a web-installer directly fom Microsoft website simply by clicking here.

yup install ka ng dx9. minsan sa mga cd mismo ng games my installer na dun. ganun lang ginagawa ko eh.

tama sila sir, ok lang yan, konti lang difference sa presyo, para kung sakaling plan mo sell madali lang din, at kung plan mo din mag ups
overall good na yang setup mo

 

[walanjoe]

maitanong kopo uli mga sir,

bakit po ang HSF fan ni intel ay papasok sa heatsink to cpu ung air, pero ung aftermarket ay palabas?

 

[biscuitz]

maitanong kopo uli mga sir,

Hindi lang intel. kahit amd ganon din.

Naka design kasi ang mga Cooler ng intel at amd sa low-profile or mini-ITX na case.

hindi lahat ng after market patayo ang heatsink. >> See low-profile air coolers

 

[asssasin]

Mga ser pa build patulong sa build ng mini itx ung pwedeng ihandcarry sa plane. Pang gaming cya at i5 at gtx 970 un gusto ko na cpu and gpu. Tnx.
