[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.

Hi po, I'm planning to upgrade my PC po, current specs below:

MOBO: ASUS P8H61-M LX3 PLUS R2.0
Proc: Intel Core i3 3220
RAM: G.Skill F3-14900CL9-4GBXL (2x:Total 8gb) - DDR3
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 420

& I'm using SSD

May nilalaro po kasi akong game (Path of Exile - para lang siyang Diablo 3) at nag FPS drops siya (kahit na ka low setting lahat) kapag madami ng nangyayari sa screen. Ang tingin ko, need ko lang mag update ng Video card at magiging okay na ang lahat.

Pa advise naman po kung tama ba akong video card lang talaga ang need ko i-upgrade oh pati processor na and mobo?

Budget ko po pala sa Video card eh 5-6k. Please advise na din po kung anong vid card ang maganda at hindi mabobottle neck ba yun? kung sakaling vid card lang ang papalitan ko sa current set-up ko.

Thank you in advance po!

pasok pa yan sir, sa gtx 1050/1050ti or RX 550 or RX 460
di pa yan bote

your GPU is really weak
sa budget mo, pwede na siguro geforce 1050. meron around 5.6k
malaking performance boost sa gaming pag napalitan mo GPU. pag ganun pa rin, baka may mga background task ka na nakakabagal sa system mo.
about your cpu and mobo... yes, it's kinda dated pero subukan mo muna magpalit ng GPU at baka ma-satisfy ka sa performance improvement.
pwede ka rin mag-hunt ng 2nd hand na i5/i7 na same generation ng cpu mo. hindi naman ganun kalaki ang performance difference ng current generation sa generation ng cpu mo. may mga nagbebenta nyan ng around 5k.

Sino ba naka setup dto ryzen ok ba compared sa intel?

dami sa youtube brod mula ng lumabas ang ryzen

Thank you so much mga sir! Follow up question po, kung sakaling bumili ako ng GPU and ganun pa din, pwede ko pa din naman po magamit ang binili kong GPU kung mag upgrade ako ng Mobo at proc diba po?

Edit: Need ko din pala palitan monitor ko dahil VGA lang to. Pwede po bang gamitan ko ng DVI to VGA adapter muna pansamantala?

yes pwedeng pwede pa rin naman, pwede mo naman unahin yung gpu upgrade before sa cpu at mobo mo, kung ok lng sayo mag 2nd hand na proc mas ok un, i5-3570 nsa 4.5k 2nd hand nyan, or i7-3700 nasa 6k to 7k

Re: [ADVISE]Help you build/choose a Computer

tanong lang po tungkol sa airflow.. yung pc case ko ay thermaltake versa h23, andami kong nabasa na pangit daw ito kasi dahil sa ventilation.. nag observe naman ako sa temperature, cpu at gpu ay pumapalo nang 58-60 degrees celsius pag naglalaro ako.. ok lang ba ito?

Refer ka sa video na ito with regards to your GPU depende sa mga games na lalaruin mo. Baka maka-experience ka ng FPS drops sa iba dahil 3GB 1060 GPU mo.
