[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.

pa help ulit, magpapalit na ba ako ng GPU??

Current Rig:
Proc: AMD FX8320 BE 3.5-3.8GHZ
HSF: M9a Cryorig
MB: Gigabyte 990FXA UD3 AM3+
RAM: 8gb dual ddr3 1600 G.Skill Ripjaw X 12800CL9
HDD: 1TB WDC CAVIAR BLUE
GPU: 3GB Powercolor HD7950 Boost State ddr5, 384bit PCIE
PSU: FSP 650W Raider Series 80+ Silver

Scenario: white horizontal line during boot, checkered patterns then blue screen pagpasok sa desktop. Tried booting in safemode, no display problem.
Balak ko din ipa diagnose sa computer repair shop, hingi lang ako ng input kung tama yung hinala ko na wala na talagang pag-asa yung GPU ko.

-balak ko sana mag switch to PALIT GTX 1050i Storm X 4Gb, wala po ba magiging problem sa Motherboard and PSU? Will go entry level gpu na lang ako kasi puro photoshop lang naman din. Or may marerecommend ka po na GPU (budget 8K). Okay lang ba mag switch from Radeon to Geforce? Hindi ba siya katulad ng AMD and Intel na iba yung socket?

-hindi po ba ma-ooverload yung motherboard kapag walang 6/8 pin yung GPU?
Salamat.

Mag amd ka sir kng png multimedia editing,rx 460/560, mas mblis amd gpu sa mga open cl apps kso nga lng overprice mga amd gpu ngaun,,try m muna plitan ng thermal paste yang gpu m

Ryzen 5 1600 build nlng sna mas maraming cores and threads mas mura pd m gwing 4x4 ddr4 ram

 

[DaRK VeNuM]

Ryzen 5 1600 build nlng sna mas maraming cores and threads mas mura pd m gwing 4x4 ddr4 ram

i7 > R5 1600 in terms of gaming..

A lot of Games usually require 4 Cores Right now

Hmm.. Prang may bottleneck JK..

- - - Updated - - -

battlefield 1, gusto ko mga first person shooting games e

Nvidia Sir.. Mas cheap sila kaysa kay Team Red[AMD] (via LAZADA)

Kahit GTX 1050 ok na sa BF1

 

[batangmaligno]

pa lagay po saken

 

[dark_athmosphere2007]

Hmm.. Prang may bottleneck JK..

anu po bang gagawin pag may bottleneck kulang pa po? tsaka anu pong magandang power supply dun sa dalawa salamat tsaka di rin po ba sagabal yung noctua jan? ang panget pa ng kulay parang poo anu po ba alternative nun.

Bottleneck meaning may nag ho-hold back(Mostly CPUs will be the Bottleneck to the GPU)

Ok naman wla naman bottleneck sa build mo..sa PSU more Wattage and Higher Efficiency(From Bronze to Platinum) -> RMi 750 Gold na lng

Hmm.. Try mo ung Cooler Master Hyper 212 LED CPU Cooler

salamat po may natutunan nanaman ako palagay ko nga pwede na yang 212 maganda pa kulay tsaka di naman ako mag OOC. mwah mwah tsup tsup

Try mo rin Ryzen 7 more core mas futureproof. Check mo Cryorig H7 talo niya CM hyper 212 sa aesthetics at syempre performance at halos same price lang. Pa assemble mo na lang sa technician ng shop para safe kasi mamahalin parts eh mahirap na

 

[natsu]

@ Thermonyo, cyrhex. Salamat po sa replies. Yung GPU ko kasi may history na 85C to 90C before kaya hindi ko na siya ginagamit sa gaming. Ttry ko palitan yung therma paste para maka sure kung deads na ba siya or hindi.

Parang ayaw ko na dalhin sa technician dito sa lugar namin, baka biglang "lumala"
Sa tingin niyo mga sir, GPU kaya may problem? May chance ba na RAM or PSU?

*noob pala ako sa rig mga sir, ngayon ko pa lang nakakapa after ilang years na sa akin to

 

[dr3amboi]

Sir tanong lang, anong video card yung kaya mag display ng 6 to 8 monitors? Meron kayang ganun na 15K lang or below? Salamat.

Salamat po sa suggestion pero di ko po feel c amd ��, maganda nga ung cryorig h7 yun nalang may led ba yun.

Gpu sir,mukang npbayaan m,,subukan m muna plitan ng thermal paste

 

[vashistamped1]

May 6 pin ba yung GPU mo sir? May advantages ba yun?

Meron boss. Advantage ng Palit na GPU na dual OC is tahimik lang at matipid sa kuryente. 75 or 85 watts lang maximum output niya kaya di malakas sa consumption. Mas maganda pa motherboard mo sa akin kasi Gigabyte G970A-UD3 pa ang motherboard ko. Pumapalya na nga ang driver nawawala ang sounds.

Mukhang 4k gaming ang build mo ah. Dagdagan mo pa ang memory mo dapat minimum mo 16GB. Usually ang build na ganito good for 3-4 years kung triple A titles ang lalaruin mo, more kung old-generation titles. Wala naman sulit na gaming build after 10 years dahil sa bilis rin ng pagbabago ng technology. (Meron akong nakitang youtube video na $1750 yung build niya nung 2009, ngayon $75 na lang worth).

By the way, mag OC ka ba since 7700K yung kinuha mo. May nag-suggest na Ryzen build ang kuhanin mo. Mas pabor ako doon for future-proofing at best bang for buck performance. Better go with 1700 or 1800 kesa 1600.

CPU Cooler: Cryorig H5 Universal
PSU: Seasonic 650W 80+ Gold Semi-modular.
Storage mo ba HDD lang or SSD? I suggest mag SSD ka para mabilis bootup ng PC mo.

 

[ghostecho]

Salamat po sa suggestion pero di ko po feel c amd ��, maganda nga ung cryorig h7 yun nalang may led ba yun.

try mo rin sir yung hyper 212 led TURBO, iba to dun sa 212 led lang, dual fan sya and may top cover

View attachment 318802

or kung available na dito, cryorig h7 quad lumi, single fan pero may RGB lighting

http://www.cryorig.com/h7ql_us.php

walang led yung h7 lang at mas mababa ang TPD nya.

pero kung mag o-O.C. ka, hanap ka ng mas mataas na cooler, like noctua NH-D15, pagtyagaan mo nga lang color scheme nya

yes fit yan noctua nhd15 dyan. if mag overclock ka go for it pero kung stock ka lang much better go for hyper 212 ka na nga lang.

 

[ghostecho]

mga ma'am/sir tanong lang,

current build ko is i5 7600 + B250 na mobo, san po mas maganda (overall) pumunta from here, planning to overclock BTW,

i5 7600k + Z270 mobo

or

Ryzen 1600x + X370 mobo

or stick na muna ako sa current

but if I do, I plan to stick to this upgrade for 3 or 4 years...

ano bang pinag-gagamitan mo sa PC mo?
kung maglalaro ka rin lang naman, yang CPU mo should be capable enough. ang kelangan mo gastusan ay yung graphics card para mas gumanda yung hitsura ng mga games at at mas mataas ang frame rates. though an overclocked 7600k will give you an additional boost pero masyadong malaki ang gastos for less than 10% fps gain... kaya
hell no!

pero kung may program ka na kailangan ng maraming CPU cores/threads like those used in cad and video rendering, a ryzen build is much better. pero pwede ka pa rin mag-overclock kahit B350 based lang yung mobo mo.

my advise: stick to your setup and invest on either your GPU or a high end video card

sa kasalukuyan po ay mostly gaming lang talaga ang rig ko, with the occasional AutoCAD(3D) on the side, and nakalimutan ko lang po i include yung existing ko na 1060 6Gb, nalilito lang po kasi ako kung saan ako mag uupgrade(for future proofing purposes) eh, sa GPU ba or sa CPU+mobo...

 

[p4up4u]

Boss pano ba ung set up sa 3 monitor na di naka extend? ung parang isang monitor lang sya na wide screen?
meron kasi akong excel na gusto ko makit lahat ng column and rows nya. may 3 monitors ako availble. possible ba yun?
