[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.

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
MoBo: Asus Prime B360M-A = 5840
RAM: GSkill Ripjaws V 16GB 2x8gb 2400Mhz CL17 = 9400
GPU: Galax GTX 1060 EXOC White 6gb = 19000
PSU: Seasonic S12II 620W 80PLUS = 3350
CASE: InWin 503 Mid Tower Windowed = 2900
SSD: Adata XPG SX6000 M.2 256gb PCIe = 4350
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



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



well, b350 mobos are just built and packaged better overall

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

thanks sir , mapapa gastos pala ko ng todo dito

thanks sir , mapapa gastos pala ko ng todo dito

since tinanong mo kung ano pwede mo i-upgrade, nilista ko best possible upgrade path for playing games...
pero you don't have to follow all of them... it's better to assemble a new one instead.
ang prioritize mo for ay video card. it will have the biggest impact in improving your gaming experience.
next ay SSD...
you can re-use these 2 kung bubuo ka ng bagong unit.

Salamat dito ng marami boss!

Ahh, marami po kasi akong nakikita na may mga liquid cooler pa and maraming fan sa loob ng rig nila (na may LED pa). More on cosmetics lang po ba yun?

For the RAM, recommended nyo po ba nag Goldkey na brand? For the GPU malaki po ba ang difference ng Galax GTX 1060 OC?

 

[jakethedog21]

Hi Boss, pahelp naman po ako, I am planning to build a gaming/autocad rendering rig po. Games to be played po are the following: Dota 2, ROS/PUBG and NBA 2k series.

Budget is around 40k-50k

CPU: Intel i5-8400 (or other recommendations?)
MoBo: ????
RAM: ????
GPU: ASUS GEFORCE GTX 980 4gb OC EDITION (or if may marerecommend po kayo na iba?)
PSU: ????
CASE: ????
SSD: ???? (Cheapest po sana, para lang sa mabilis na pagboot)
HDD: Atleast 1TB

Salamat po!

Goodpm sir. Parecommend naman ako ng build up na customized cpu. Ang budget ko po is 30k-35k lang. Ang madalas ko po gamitin is autocad, sketchup, vray, 3dsmax, photoshop, lumion(malaki ang requirements sa specs pero recommend nalang kayo). Based sa research at napagtanongan ko. Maganda po ba yung. Ryzen 5, gtx 1050 ti, gskill 8gb. Thank you po.

thanks sir ! wala na bang mas medyo mura na GPU jan ? maliit lang din kasi monitor ko , 18 inches lang naman siya , pang Dota 2 CS lang pang patay oras ? may ibang suggestion pa kaya ? naisip ko na rin po yan kung bubuo ako parang mas mura siya then yung mga HDD ko , PSU ko yun parin gamit ko , mag invest na lng ng ssd khit 120gb lng no ?

 

[pgark]
