[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.

@janz

Oo kakaupdate ko lang kagabi sa latest driver ng nVidia( 301.42 )

Yun na nga eh, Higher res, lower FPS pero bakit ganun? 720p naman, hehe and weird..

Experiment ka nalang sa graphic settings. Usually nagpapabigat dyan ay Anti-Aliasing at shadows for any game. Baka naman sinagad mo lahat haha.

Boss aztig ang laking 2long po. Ask q lang po, san nman po aq bibili ng mga parts na un? I mean, sang comp hardware shop po. At lastly, gus2 q po sana black lahat ang kulay. Black mobo, black hdd casing, black memory casing, black wire. Pede din pong medyo may red or dark orange. Hehe. Pede po bang magchooze ng kulay?

Prices & parts came from different sellers. Punta ka sa Cyberpod Eton or Gilmore and you'll find those. Prices may differ siguro by 100-200 depende sa store.

As for the colors, wala kang choice pero may way naman AFTER you buy them. Wirings for example pede ka mag pa sleeves with the color of your choice sa mga modders pero syempre dagdag gastos yun at di mura yun lalo na kung gusto mo talaga themed ang labas at loob ng rig mo.

Tama yan, hindi pwede mali dahil masisira yung reputation ng site at mawawalan ng visitors kung ganyan gagawin nila haha. Baka may na missed out ka lang.

Possible siguro na di naka DX11 yung benchmark? Unlikely to happen. As long as constant 60 FPS on max settings ka naman wag mo na problemahin haha.

Re: [ADVISE]Help you build/choose/upgrade your Computer

Punta ka sa Cyberpod Eton Ortigas, get the parts from the stores there.

Here's a build for you:

CPU: Intel Pentium G620 PHP 2495.00
MOBO: ASRock H61M-HVS PHP 2400.00
RAM: G.Skill RipJawsX 4GB 2x2 DDR3 1333 CL9 PHP 1350.00
HDD: WD Caviar Blue 500GB SATA3 PHP 3400.00
ODD: Any DVDRW PHP 900.00
PSU: FSP HEXA 500W PHP 2000.00
ATX: Any Generic PHP 450.00
GPU: Sapphire HD 5570 1GB DDR3 PHP 2150.00

TOTAL: PHP 15145.00

- Sinama ko na isang true rated PSU. A generic PSU is okay pero di talaga sya highly recommended. Don't skimp out on the PSU pero it's your call kung gusto mo talaga mag generic.



Mukang AGP lang pede dyan. Punta ka sa TipidPC.com at dun ka tumingin dahil most stores don't sell AGP anymore.



Magkano ba budget mo?

mga 30k boss.........

Most stores sa Gilmore should have those parts. PC Hub & Foxcom to name two. Pwede ka mag pa assemble kung yung major components ay binili mo sa mismong store na yun. Casing is already included.
