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.

tanong ko lang po ulit. mga sir pwede ko bang alisin ung optical drive sa casing ko kahit naka install sya sa pc ko?. hindi ba maaapektuhan pc ko pag wala ung optical drive na un?

 

[inmrc]

Anyone na may kaalaman sa router, what should I choose between this two? ASUS RT-N14UHP @ 3,000php or ASUS RT-AC51U @ 3,100php?

tanong ko lang po ulit. mga sir pwede ko bang alisin ung optical drive sa casing ko kahit naka install sya sa pc ko?. hindi ba maaapektuhan pc ko pag wala ung optical drive na un?

Yes you can remove it for better airflow (depende sa drive at sa placing). It won't affect the performance of the rig overall, be ready na lang siguro with backup OS installer on a flash drive para pang format. Else, ikabit mo na lang ulit pag kelangan mo na gamitin. Aalikabukin lang kasi yun sa loob e.

Ang balak ko po kasi since my extra po ako na 1tb, dun po storage tapos po dun lang sa ssd ung OS, pede po kaya un?

As long as 7200rpm yung storage mo ok na yun for games. Kung 5400rpm lang, good for literal na storage lang yan (for me, at least) and I wouldn't recommend it for gaming. I'm using 128GB dn for OS (win7 ulti 64bit +sp1), and kasya pa sya for dying light and dragon age inquisition. May additional space pa sya pero I put my other games on my HDD na.

Ayun sinagot ni @themonyo hehe 667MHz kasi rated speed tapos slot 3 so i thought populated yung ibang ram slot mo.

Mga bossing pwede na po ang specs na to?

I5 4460
Ecs b85
8gb hyper x 1866 2x 4gb
Ecs gtx560
Case deep cool smarter
500 gb seagate sata
samsung led sa100 18.5 inches

18k 2nd hand.

Or punta na lang ako gilmore and build ako ng entry level gaming unit. For sure ibibigay sa akin sa gilmore 2358 or a8 with 2gigs vcard and 8gb mem.. Palagay nyo mga sir?

Good value na, although need mo din itanong yung psu, kung gaano na katagal yung mga parts at alin2 sa kanila yung may warranty pa. Tatawaran ko yan kung ako sayo kasi di mo rin nabanggit kung stock cpu cooler lang gamit e. hehe

 

[daikixD]

@-x-i-i-i-
kala ko kasi bawal ung ganun eh. balak ko kasi bumili ng nzxt s340 na case. ikakabit ko lang sya pag mag install ako ng os at driver nitong motherboard ko. tapos aalisin ko sya ulit. salamat

wow! 2.1ghz since its dual core, you can easily oc that to 3ghz. for gpu, if you just play moba games and lite fps games like crossfire then the r7 260x 1gb is good enough. forget about dual graphics.

 

[k9doomer]

Kaya po ba ng g3258 ang world of tanks kahit walang gpu? TIA po sasagot.

 

[ydnar23]

Mga bossing I really need your expert advise. May nagbebenta kasi sakin 2nd hand gaming rig pero all parts may 1yr and 4 months distro warranty pa. Ito ang specs: Procie - i5 4440, Mobo - Asus B85m-G, GPU - GTX 760 ichill 3000, PSU - CX600 watts bronze, RAM -8gb corsair vengeance blue 1600, 500gb HDD, CaseXigmatek Alfar Window w/ 3 cougar green led fan, With Razer set KB, Mouse and mouse pad. 23in led monitor din. Ok ba siya? Binebenta ng friend ko sakin for 28.5k nagnenego pa kame.

 

[pgark]

Hi mga sir! Pa-suggest naman po ng cpu build. Budget is more or less 30k. Yung future proof sana. Gagamitin for games, GTA V, Just Cause, mga ganung tipo ng laro tapos for work. Autocad, sketchup, revit kaya sana mga 16gb ram. Salamat!

Pa-add na rin sana pala ng monitor, 1080p or 1440p. Hiwalay na budget na to basta yung medyo mura lang. Hehe

Any Seasonic PSU will do kung maisisingit sa budget. and around 520w or 620w okay na for your setup.
