[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.

Mga bosing tanong ko lang sana kung compatible ba yung G.skill ripjaws V 3200cl sa MSI night elf? Diko kasi sure kung di sila compatible. Yung system unit ko kasi minsan ayaw bumukas may 3 long beeps. Naka salpak naman ng naayos yung ram kaya diko sure kung compatible ba sila. Nag run na yung rig ko mga 3 weeks na pero dalawang beses na nag kaganito

try mo lipat ng RAM slot para macheck rin kung may problema mobo at may pag-asa ka pang mag-RMA

mga boss nu po advantage and dissadvantage ng haswell and skylake?? mas ok po b ung skylake s haswell?? slmat po..

mga BOSSING p check nmn if compatible cla to each other... slamat ng mdmi...

processor: i7 6700k............................................. ................17,000
motherboard: Asrock X99WS Socket LGA2011-3.......................19,000

magulo build mo brod. hindi balanced at hindi compatible and mobo sa cpu. i7 6700k should be paired with a Z170 mobo. magkano po ba budget nyo?
dual 500gb na HDD should be replaced by a single 1tb na nasa 2.5k lang and get at least a 250gb SSD/m.2
mahina masyado GPU... either wag ka muna mag-GPU at umasa sa built-in ng 6700k tapos upgrade mo na lang sa future ng at least a geforce 970 or r9 390
550w PSU is too bare para sa ganyang high end system. go for at least a 750w for more possible upgrade path.
ang liit ng monitor mo. ganyang high end systems should have a 1440p monitor or kahit 144hz na FHD.
but we need to know your budget so we can help you more with your build.

mga sir may tanung ulit ako may 8,500 na ko ibili ko na ba to ng gtx 950 zotac amp?kasi sabi ito daw pinakamganda na brand sa gtx950 un lang hirap ng RMA ata nito or ipon konti para maging 9600 para makabili ng gtx 960 msi OC ( ung white ) 2gb? nba 2k lang nilalaro ko pero gusto ko sana high setting sya hangang nba2k18 na. naka i3 4160 pala ako. pa advice po last na. anong mas wise?

mga ilan ba sir dagdag ng fps pag naka gtx 960 ako? pag bumili po ba ko ng 950 tatagal po ba sya sa mga laro ngaun at sa mga sunod pa na taon?

heto, panoorin mo kung makumbinsi ka to go with a 950, 960 or r9 380.

 

[inmrc]

Sir ano pa bang mura na z170a board 4 dimm sockets bukod sa msi z170a pc mate mukhang mahirap humanap nito eh? Pa suggest naman po kahit anong brand. Tsaka ano magandang bilhin na SSD yung mura din na 120gb? Bibili na ako this week. Thanks!

At noob question lang pahabol. Ang RAM na 2133 pwede i overclock hanggang 2400 or higher o hanggang 2133 lang? Tsaka dapat ba OC din ang processor kapag nag OC ka ng RAM? Please enlighten me hahaha! Thank you guys!

Na try ko na lahat ng slots bosing ayaw na nya talaga mag boot. Nung unang assemble ko dito ganyan din nangyari so binalik ko agad sya. Tinesting namin dun sa shop na pinag bilhan ko ang gumana naman sya. Then ayun pag uwi ko inassemble ko na then gumana na sya. After a week biglang ganun uli yung problema. All fans are running pati yung led ng mobo pero may 3 long beeps so ayun diko muna sya ginamit then kinabukasan gumana na uli sya. After 2 weeks eto uli nangyari. Same problem uli. Sa ram kaya yung problem ko?

[royjones66]

Sir patulong sana ako , meron ako dito asus gt730 ddr5, saang motherboard at processor ko ito ipair para ma maximize ko gamit nito? Pang pisonet lang sir..ty
Pati pala ram.

 

[skog14]

naku! mukhang kinakapos ka nga ng power...

Nag basa basa ako ng paulit ulit sa mga forums may mga kapareho ako ng problema pero iba iba results sa kanila. Meron mga nabalian ng pins, faulty mobo, faulty ram o kaya faulty PSU. So eto dadalhin ko na buong rig ko para matest. Sana pwede pa replacement kasi wala pang 1 month tong rig ko

 

[daikixD]

salamat po sa mga advice nyo. kuhain ko sana ung r9 380 kaya lang 450psu lang gamit ko wala pa kasi ako perang pang upgrade ng psu. nakita ko ung palit 960 oc. 8,790 nalang sa pchub. balak ko sana kunin ung gtx 950 zotac amp. kaya lang hirap ata RMA nun dito satin, or ung MSI 960 oc 2gb. mahirap din ata ang RMA. pero salamat sa mga advice mga sir.

 

[Atty Manalo]

pahingi ng advice if ok po ito
eto po monitor ko nabili ko last year.
Dell S2240L specs http://accessories.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&sku=320-9802

eto po plano ko bilhin paadvice if ok po. budget ko is 25k -28k
plan ko lang laruin is mga online games like dota2 try ko din yun gta5 at surf internet watch movie lang.

 

[eatsmyname]

anu po b ang OC? mga boss

 

[inmrc]

Mga sir okay lang ba 2400 na RAM sa i3 6100 skylake? Kasi 1866/2133 lang nakalagay sa description.

 

[pandaaaSTAR]

im using g3260 + h81m p33 + 4x2 kingston hyper x 1600
ask ko lang diba 1333 lang default na kaya ng 3260. pero pwde mo mamaximize ung potential ng ram depende sa motherboard.
nag research ako about sa motherboard ko, nakita ko sa reddit ung xmp profile para maayos ung sa mother board ko is aayusin ung DRAM Frequency sa bios.
Ask ko lang bakit nag aappear dun ay 1400mhz ang max at hindi 1600? TY

 

[avengemig]

brothers? patulong nman magbuild ng pc eh

Usage: Flight Simulator X (FSX), DOTA 2, BF, MW at Photoshop
Budget: 28-30k (kung lumampas konti sa budget baka pwede na din)

maraming salamat po

 

[pogisifranz]

Mga bossing tanong ko lang kung makakapagassemble ako nag cpu lang pang dota 2 po pero medyo maliit lang budget ko 4k - 5k lang po. At tsaka kung pwede na po bang wifi ready yun? Salamat po. Thanks po

Kakayanin ng 450w pero depende padin sa brand na gamit mo. Ano bang PSU mo?
Btw Seasonic s12ii 520w is just 2.6k

I fixed it for you. This will perform better and give more texture especially in GTA V. Given that you're using a FHD Monitor.

Skylake gives 5-10% improvement sa performance yes but if you're on a limited budget especially for gaming, better invest your budget in Haswell+GPU.

You can even go i5 if 28k budget mo or add an SSD.

After all it's the GPU which is at stress in gaming purposes.

For your budget does it include monitor, mouse & keyboard? If not you can use the specs I gave above.
You can either change it to i5-4460 or add an SSD to maximize your budget.

anu po b ang OC? mga boss

OC = Overclock, means you'll increase the clock speed of your components for it to perform faster. Downside is it will produce more heat and voltage.

Imagine you purchased a car that can run at 1000mph but you will only drive it at 800mph.

I suggest wag na masyado makalikot, kahit patakbuhin mo yang ram mo ng 2400, it wont make significant difference unless naka APU ka pero hindi.

It's better for you to purchase a second hand.

Btw Seasonic s12ii 520w is just 2.6k

450w corsair lang po ung gamit ko. saka hangang 9.5 lang talaga budget ko para sa gpu.

 

[yuri22rivera]

raw power and performance lamang talaga ang R9 380 even compared with the 4gb 960 but its very very minimal.
some games lamang ang 960 pero most lamang ang 380. of course, main advantage ng r9 380 lalabas pagdating ng DX12 games (maybe next year or 2). AMD's design is much more optimized sa upcoming dx12 implementation. 960 also consumes less power and produces less heat.
seriously, you won't go wrong with both cards. its just a matter of preference nowadays.
watch these to help you decide:

Nauwi ako sir sa gtx 960. Di pala kaya ng psu ko sabi sa shop 750w+ daw minimum ng r9 380 e 600w lang psu ko. Aun.. so far ok naman 1080p 60fps. Thanks ulit.

pedeng pede r9 380 sa 600watts mo.. sayang,
pero ok na ok din ang 960 ah.. so nice buy pa din naman
