[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 ask ko lang guys,
bibili kasi ako ng RAM:
Zeppelin
4GB 1333mhz ddr3

Mobo:
ASRock H81M-DGS R2.0

Compatible kaya to? wala na kasi ako makitang available na ibang brand na malapit dito samin and sabi kasi yung Zeppenlin brand namimile ng MOBO. totoo ba yun?

Actually hindi RAM ang mapili, kundi mga board.

gagana yan Zeppelin sa board mo.

If may existing ram ka and gusto mo mag add, check mo yung existing ram mo kung DDR3 1333 and be sure na 1.5v. (different voltage will not work most of the time, also mixing DDR3L with DDR3 will not work)

thanks boss!

eto kasi yung existing na RAM ko,
Apacer-4GB-DDR3-PC3 12800 CL11-DDR3-UNB

then bibile ako ng zeppelin ram

pacheck lng mga boss, ok na kaya to? To follow nlng gtx 1060 pag may budget na

 

[biscuitz]

mag kaiba ang speed ng ram mo vs Zeppelin na pinost mo, better find also a 1600mhz na DDR3 ram.

PC3 12800 / 8 = 1600 (existing ram mo)

Zeppelin = 1333 (also I think this is CL9 since 1333 sya)

(eto yung existing ram ko)

ang akala ko, 666x2 para malaman yung mhz.

anu pong b350 board ang maganda? yung 5-6k budget?

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

Hi po kamusta? ask ko lng po. ok po ba sa desktop na gamitan ng wireless Bluetooth mouse at wireless keyboard? hussle kasi pag naka wire sya. at saka po anong magandang monitor for PC budget ko po na P2,800. thanks sa thread na ito. Pa tambay na rin po

 

[themonyo]

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

anu pong b350 board ang maganda? yung 5-6k budget?

i would recommend the following:
AsRock AB350M Pro 4 = 4600 (mATX)
Asus Prime B350-A = 4690 (mATX)
Asus Prime B350 Plus = 5700 (ATX size)
ayoko na rin mag-recommend ng b350 mobo na mataas sa 6k... kasi malapit na yan sa presyo ng X370...

I'm using 2 wireless mice. Logitech G602 & MX Master.
Though proprietary ang wireless connection nila, yung mx master may support for bluetooth connection din.
problema lang naman ng mga wireless mice ay battery life. bili ka ng bili ng battery pag naubos unless rechargeable yung battery mo.
the same holds true sa wireless keyboard.

depende sa manufacturer at model ng wireless gadget mo, mostly wala naman problema sa response time or input lag. kung ano performance sa laptop/mobile gadget mo, it should perform the same sa desktop pc.

monitor for 2800? 2nd hand siguro?

Hello po, pano po ba pumili ng wattage po ng psu? medyo confuse po kasi ako kng ano po ang ok eh. ano po ba ang recommended wattage for a gaming rig? and pano malaman po kng enough na yung wattage ng psu mo? Planning to build pero hrap parin makapagdecide dahil sa RAM and GPU. Thank you po!!

ito po specs ko pero balak ko sanang mag gtx1060 na lang? kaya paba yun ng psu na 520w?

 

[chelseagar]

anu po ba major difference ng b350 at a320? aside sa di ka naman maka-OC sa a320? yun lang ba difference nila? wala naman po kasi ako plan mag overclock.

if say a320 board bilhin ko or any board na 2 lang ang dimm slot, better ba na mag 8gb ako isang stick?

 

[Valentine0789]

mga sir ano ba pwede ko i upgrade dito ? pang casual gaming lang ROS , Counter Strike Source mga ganon lang

magkano po budget mo? kasi yung Logitech G602 ay phased out na pero kung makakahanap ka, nasa 2.7k~3.2k ang presyuhan. yung mx master nasa 4.5k.
about sa monitor, i have no idea sa brand na yan... pero kung pasok na sa panlasa mo, then go for it
personally, i would recommend the brands from: lg, dell, samsung, hp, benq, acer

if you are talking about the cpu fan, kailangan kung may "K" (8600k, 8700k, 8086k, etc) yung bibilhin mong processor kasi walang bundled pag binili mo sila. the rest, merong stock fan at pwede ng pagtyagaan.
CPU: Intel i5-8400 = 9,350.00

HDD: Western Digital WD Caviar Blue 2TB = 3280
Total = 57,470

Note: Prices are from dynaquest's website. call and verify availability of parts first before going to their store.

keyboard: kung gusto mo mag-mechanical, i would recommend going to the mechanical keyboards thread bago ka mag-desisyon kung anong keyboard bibilhin mo. may kanya-kanya tayong preference sa type of switches na gagamitin kaya better read or try them first before buying. mga sikat na brands of mechanical keyboards are corsair, razer, logitech, cooler master
mouse: i would recommend na same brand ang bilhin mo with your keyboard para 1 lang ang software na gagamitin nyo lalo na sa mga macros and rgb synchronization and patterns. other brands to consider sa gaming mouse: roccat & zowie (also include the brands from the keyboards) [REVIEWS]Gaming Mouse Reviews and Tambayan
speakers: meh

alamin mo lahat ng parts ng pc mo at gumamit ng power calculator na website.
pwede mo rin input lahat ng pc components mo sa pcpartpicker na site. merong analysis dun ng power load ng system mo.
it is recommended na ang total power load mo ay 60% lang ng rating ng PSU mo for maximum power efficiency

ito po specs ko pero balak ko sanang mag gtx1060 na lang? kaya paba yun ng psu na 520w?

kahit mag gtx 1060 ka pa, nasa +300w lang ang load ng pc mo. pag lumagpas ng 450w, saka mo na pag-isipang magpalit...

anu po ba major difference ng b350 at a320? aside sa di ka naman maka-OC sa a320? yun lang ba difference nila? wala naman po kasi ako plan mag overclock.

if say a320 board bilhin ko or any board na 2 lang ang dimm slot, better ba na mag 8gb ako isang stick?

well, b350 mobos are just built and packaged better overall

mga sir ano ba pwede ko i upgrade dito ? pang casual gaming lang ROS , Counter Strike Source mga ganon lang

2nd gen i3... medyo mahina na rin yan try mo maghanap ng i5 or i7 an 3rd gen. pero update mo muna UEFI/BIOS mo bago mo palitan ang cpu.
4gb ram kapos... try mo maghanap ng stores na nagbebenta ng quality na 2nd hand components para sa ram at try mo upgrade to 8 or 16gb. 2 lang ram slot mo kaya kelangan mo palitan yang nakalagay.
gpu: pinaka-importante sa gaming. pwede mo lagyan ng gtx 1060 yan... pero sa mahal ng gpu ngayon, try mo maghanap ng 2nd hand na gtx960 or 970... medyo maganda presyo nila sa 2nd hand market
SSD: lagay ka at dun mo lipat OS mo para mabilis ang boot at loading time
