[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.

hindi
intel LGA 1151 motherboard yan
AMD AM4 socket naman yung sa ryzen
magkaiba sila ng motherboard
so far, walang "abang" na build para sa ryzen ngayon unless you want to spend around 50k for a R7 build.

if you can afford i5 now and need the extra performance, just buy it. dont buy into this upgrade path since it'll cost you more in the end. know what you need and what you think will satisfy you for quite a while before you can afford to buy another. youll just waste your money if you buy a weak pentium now then buy an i5 after 6 months. that sounds like you paid close to an i7. i know people who still has 2nd gen i5 and still using it today. intel changes sockets so fast your wallet cant keep up.

 

[themonyo]

yung mga may gusto pa dyan ng 980ti, may nagbebenta for 14k mas mababa pa sa nabili ko
hanapin nyo post ni jamesssss23 sa tpc

saka po ung suggest nun ni sir themonyo na antayin ung ryzen, di na kaya at need na ng nag papabuild... salamat po mga sir

 

[themonyo]

mahal ng gpu mo... sa presyong yan pwede ka na mag rx470 or 1060 3gb (9700 starting price) and they would perform a lot better than that
monitor mo baba naman... ang panget ng ganyan sa image/video editing. most even prefer ultra wide 21:9 or even multi-monitor setup for those kind of work
pero other than that, ok naman yung build mo

how about gawin mong Palit GTX 1050 Ti StormX 4GB (7050)
tapos yung monitor either of the following:
BenQ GW2270 (5290)
BenQ GW2270H (5650)
LG 22MP48HQ (5950)
LG 22MP58VQ (6480)
pare-pareho lang naman silang 72% ang color gamut
kung gaming, yes, lamang yung 1060... pero kung panget naman monitor mo... parang di naman maganda ang computing experience mo nun

[vheryoness]

whats so special about this headset?

+3k MMR

bang for buck gaming headset yan ayon sa mga nag rereviews sa youtube

 

[themonyo]

gaming is over-rated and just gives the manufacturers more reason to charge extra

audiophile headphones are way better
