Computers: Frequently Asked Questions

[M Corleone]

Hi guys anyone can help me build a rig? Because right now gusto kong maglaro ng battlefield 1 pero ang pc ko ngaun mababa lang. Ok ba bumili ng parts sa pcexpress?

Depending on your current setup, pwede mo i-upgrade na lang yung pc mo para mas makamura. Usually, ang pinapalitan dyan is video card and RAM lang naman if game-specific yung gusto mong set-up.

 

Pero don't worry if mababa pa PC mo ngayon, check it's potential din. I had a rig na Core i3 (2nd gen) lang pero kayang kaya yung GTA V at high settings. Kahit mga high-end games like Mafia 3, L.A. Noire, Hitman: Absolution, Batman: Arkham City at marami pang iba. It would really depend on your knowledge on how to tweak the video settings to adapt to your current rig setup.

 

Also, invest on a very good power supply. Yung may independent k*ll switch and a bunch of safety features. Pricey but it will be worth it. Kasi video cards and processors, when used in heavy gaming, can be very power-hungry. Kaya kung mababa ang wattage at walang safety feature ang power supply mo, baka dun ka pa magkaproblema.

 

Medyo mahal sa PC Express. I would suggest Easy PC sa SM North. Gaming rig essentials ang carry ng shop nila dun. Mga gamers din ang mga staff. Hehe! Look for Sam (not sure lang kung andun pa sya). I think MTC member din yun. Hehe!

hello po,

 

any suggestions po for a mid range gaming pc setup? today is nov 13 2017.

 

1. cpu?

2. gpu?

3. hd?

4. ram?

5. power supply?

6. cpu cooling?

7. mother board?

 

overclocking?

 

and mura para makarami thanks!

 

1.Intel 4th gen-5th gen (i5 will do since gaming lang habo - old architecture na sila pero pwede na for gaming

AMD Ryzen is still pricey but you can opt for Ryzen 5 (new architecture pa...medyo future proof na din unlike sa 4th-5th gen Intel)

2. GPU - GTX 1050, GTX 960 (Di naman siguro habol 4k gaming no?)

3. HD - WD o Seagate. 1tb will do unless i shove mo more than 1tb na laro. You want speedier bootup?.SSD as main drive/OS Storage

4. RAM - 4gb. Gaming lang naman but you can go beyond. 8gb para safe (Ripjaw, HyperX)

5. CPU Cooler - Hyper EVO 212. Mas maganda vs Stock Cooler

6. Power Supply - yung maganda na like Aorus...pwede stock power supply though need mo ng power regulator.

7. Motherboard - ASUS, Gigabyte (depende sa CPU mo din kasi pero dun ka na sa maayos ayos na motherboard model

office pc - 30-40k

 

my own - 70-90k

[blue+george]

hey guys,

 

thanks sa pag answer ng query ko, well nag search din ako google, youtube etc. I also checked tipidpc

 

yeah mura sa kanila compared with pc corner I guess due to the rental prices.

 

anyways, I compared the pc build from acer (link below) its $1280 SGD. so around 48k. sa tipidpc nasa 42k ish... so mas mura talaga sa tipidpc.

 

https://www.courts.com.sg/acer-axc-780-i770mr81t13-cpu-intel-core-i7-7700-8gb-128gb-ssd-1tb-hdd-win-10-ip120305

 

so for my office pc, I think I would buy yun sa tipidpc. only problem is, if I use credit cards, well... walang discount. broken hearted... wala ako cash... installments is way easier and better!

 

and for my gaming pc, I found this cool baby on youtube. astig. ganda. I'm in love pero casing pa lang 12k na! and available sa tipidpc! asar!

 

 

I think 100k pesos over pag setup.

 

kung same price sana sa credit card, ok na ok.... anyways need to wait and until makaipon... hayzzz...

 

anyways eto na research ko and prices from tipidpc.

 

comments po sa system. may kulang ba or better choices? i9 is just too expensive... processor pa lang 50k na agad...

oh yeah, games intended is battlefield one, nba 2k series, yun parang lord of the rings sa xbox one? yun bago. need for speed! yun bago din! so ganun... hopefully... pamasko ehehehe

which video card ang kaya ng high quality settings sa dota 2 pero mura ang presyo?

[M Corleone]

which video card ang kaya ng high quality settings sa dota 2 pero mura ang presyo?

It depends on your processor and motherboard, bro. Dapat kasi compatible sila. Pero normally:

 

Intel : Nvidia;

AMD: Radeon

 

Tho hindi naman ito absolute, you can mix and match pa din basta check your compatibility pa din.

[Vegetae999]

Baka meron kayong intel core i7-4790k @4.00GHz na hindi na ginagamit at gusto nang ibenta Ill buy it thanks!

[Lyse]

I need help / advice on to what parts I should be buying and what will be the specs, as I am planning to buy a new System Unit specifically for Gaming (Ultra settings), Video editing, programming.

My budget for System Unit only is 60k - 70k(MAX). Also recommend me a pair of Monitors (Brand and Dimension for this set up).

Ultra Settings and video editing....hmmm...I'm not sure with the prices because of mining thingy going on (Mas pricey if you game or edit a video @4k)

 

GPU - Nvidia GTX 970, 980, 1060,1070, 1080

CPU - Intel i7 (4th-8th gen) or Ryzen 7, Threadripper

Ram - DDR4 Ripjaws, HyperX at least 16gb....much better kung mas mataas pa for video editing.

Motherboard - Compatible din dapat sa CPU, I prefer Asus, Gigabyte motherboards

Power Supply - 750W and up....depende kung gaano kadami isaksak mong parts (Mas maganda kung modular para malinis tingnan at di masyado maraming cable)

CPU Cooler - Hyper512, AiO cooler. Medyo di ok yung stock cooler ng CPU

Monitor - Asus, AOC, LG, Samsung yung magagandang display (ok na yung 1080p reso. kung trip mo 4k....mas mahal syempre and I suggest 2 1080p monitors para isa naka portrait for programming. Bili ka na din ng monitor arm para mapadali yung pagrotate ng monitor at isa lang stand for two monitor.)

 

Sa case....bahala ka kung ano trip basta kakasya yung mga piyesa. Go for mid to full tower.
