Hi guys,

I started this thread to help everyone wanting a new computer. All you need to do is post the following:
Code:
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.

Dahil sa overpriced ang GPUs ngayon, ano sa tingin mo mas maganda? Stick to Intel CPU ba or lipat na sa Ryzen APU? Mukhang matatagalan pa ata bago bumalik sa dating presyo GPUs ngayon. Balita ko may ilalabas na mining GPU ang Nvidia, no display output, focused sa mining.

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

Mga bossing, :help:

pa help naman. ano kaya mas OK, Desktop or Laptop?
gusto ko sana uli mag desktop for gaming naman. 1st and last desktop ko is way back 2007 pa. tapos puro laptop na. pero yung laptop hindi naman high-end.

example:
yung personal laptop ko, 2gb memory, win10, 500gb, quadcore, acer
company laptop, i3, win7, 4gb memory, 500gb lenovo

Ano po ba ok, iupgrade ko personal laptop or bumili na lang ng i5 or i7? tapos mas ok sana kung 1TB ung disk.
more on office works lang din naman pag gagamitan, programming or photoshop.

any suggestions po kung laptop or desktop at ano specs and brand.

salamat!! :beat:

Mga Bossing,

Pa build naman po ng desktop worth 20k - 25k.
Pang Games, Photoshop, Programming po.

Thank you!

You have to look for PROS and CONS first. For me, mas okay ang desktop dahil pwede ka mag upgrade by part. Pag may sira, madali lang hanapin ang parts at safe for overclocking. And it is waaaaaaaaaaay cheaper. Pero kung studyante ka, mas okay pag laptop, kung hindi ka naman hardcore gamer. I bought a laptop with an i7 4th gen with GT 820m GPU for 25k, second hand. At mostly dito ako nag-rerender ng videos na gawa ko sa Adobe After Effects/Premiere CC + pwede na din pang gaming, GTA 5 at 30-40 fps mid settings, at gamit ko din for programming and Photoshop. Pero sa 25k na yun, mas mataas na specs ang makukuha mo pag nagbuild ka ng rig. Sa laptop kasi you're paying extra for the portability.

this is more like a VIP gaming shop? same sa mineski at TNC? kasi sa mentioned games mo like DOTA 2, ROS, LOL and Dragon Nest can run with Intel G4560, 2GB GPU and 4GB RAM but, question what kind of latest games? if gustoh mo like PUBG 1050ti GPU set to mid settings, DOTA 2 to Ultra high settings.

an entry level i5 desktop lang walang monitor, KB and mouse cost 25k already.
