Was waiting for a 3-fan version to go on sale sana pero baka tumaas pa lalo yung prices in the coming months. Also GPU is dying na (currently using my rx 580 spare, after completely masira ng aircon waterleak yung rx 6600 ko). Sana sulit na tong presyo ng pagkabili ko 😭

Buti nalang nalaman ko agad. Medyo na high blood ako sa 75k MSRP. Kahit Wala akong alam sa PC builds, alam ko na it doesn't make sense to buy a PS5 Pro at that price. Kaso lang noob lang talaga and really don't know where to start. Actually sa totoo lang, gusto lang malaro mga AAA games at 1080p med to high settings at 60 fps. Gusto ko din malaman mga boss if I push ko na sa 1440p kung 60 to 70k naman budget ko including 1440p na monitor.

HP prodesk G7 MT

bought this barebone in shopee for 2400 pesos.

and after i got this i5-10400 as a freebie when i bought something in fb marketplace. and fingercrossed 🤞 hoping it will work. next I bought 16gb hyperx 3200mhz for 2600pesos nearby fb marketplace and a Can of spray paint to blacked out the silver chasis. removed the drive cages to fit in 2x 120mm fans with cool 😎 lights. for 200pesos. i have 256gb lying around. boight long time ago for 1k. and a wifi card on a broken old laptop.

next plan is to buy a low profile gtx 1650 and a decent cpu cooler (thermalright peerless assassin 90 SE)

so overall this is a budget 6k+ build. and more updgrade to come.

Looking for laptop suggestions.

Still saving up but would like to know what to buy and what to expect with this price point.

CPU: min. 3.2Ghz - max. 4.5Ghz AMD

GPU: 3050/4050 6GB

Storage: 512GB SSD

RAM: min. 12GB - max. 16GB DDR5 base RAM (edit* DDR4 is fine 3200mhz)

Upgradable RAM up to 32GB

Upgradable Storage nmve

120hz-144hz

For Gaming, School, Video editing, Canva, Browser Multitasking.

Decent Fans (preferably quiet) and Decent quality build.

these are the games I'll be playing (mostly the open worlds and AAA games) + valorant, hoyoverse games, and Wuwa.

Hi, guys!

Can anyone help me determine what the discoloration is? And if its fixable or are there any remedies?

Is this a common issue on these kind of panels. Thanks

Aside from the items in the receipt, dinagdagan ko lang ng isa pang 1TB SSD yung storage, but everything else has stayed the same since 2020.

Will admit na hindi talaga ako masyado maalam or matiyaga mag-aral sa parts. Medyo nafo-FOMO lang ako with my current build because of the following:

1. Hindi ko siya ma-upgrade to Windows 11, and yung current work laptop ko is Win11 na and hinahanap-hanap ko yung ibang QoL improvements dun sa personal PC ko.

2. Gusto ko na rin mag-upgrade to an OLED 1440p ultrawide monitor to replace my old dual IPS na 1080p.

3. Gusto ko ma-maximize yung future monitor ko with a PC that can keep up with modern AAA games at 1440p with at least 60fps.

Given the above, what would be the best way to upgrade? GPU lang ba kailangan? or GPU, PSU, CPU, and motherboard na rin (halos buong PC na rin)? And may recommended shops ba kayo who could upgrade an existing setup (preferably sa south)?

Planning to buy this set, asking if worth it po ba?

Mainly use for school work lang, ms office and minsan valo

My laptop is an entry level HP 15 Ryzen 3 with an integrated AMD Radeon Graphics card. And I was able to play re4 remake but it has a bunch of crash mainly running out of VRAM same as elden ring and rdr2(rdr2 has less Crashes but it is guaranteed at around 2-3 hours of gameplay). I'm only 15,student with a low income family so gaming hardware is hard to get. So if anyone has a DDR4 that they don't use. it'll be a blessing for me

Any recommendations po na low profile keyboard. Meron po ako ngayon yung Langtu L98 gasket structure keyboard, napapagod kasi agad ako magtype and natatamaan ko agad yung mga adjacent keys kung di ko natataas ng maayos yung daliri ko kapag nagtatype (maliit lang po kamay ko).

Mechanical or normal keyboard recommendations will do po. Thank you!

Hello po! Hingi lang po ako ng suggestions niyo anong pwedeng bilhin na processor or whatever na nilalagay sa PC? Di kasi ako maalam sa pag setup mismo. Alam ko lang gumamit 😭 Di po sobrang mahal sana yung around 20k na setup siguro? And any recommendation na shop sa online or physical store po? Salamat po! 🤍

hi so i mounted my 8.44kg 34” monitor along with a 24” monitor sa h100 ko and nag bebend siya. rated 9kg max weight ung arm.

Hey everyone!

I think my DeepCool Castle 360EX might be failing or have severely degraded over time. I bought it back in 2021, so it’s been around five years, and I’m now getting pretty high CPU temperatures with my Ryzen 7 5700X3D.

My idle temperatures fluctuate between 49°C and 67°C, and they reach 85°C or higher while gaming. The games I mostly play are Where Winds Meet, Valorant, Cyberpunk 2077, and Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.

I’m considering replacing my current cooler with another 360mm AIO, but I’m also open to air coolers if there’s one that can provide comparable cooling performance. I’d prefer to save some money if a good air cooler can handle the 5700X3D without sacrificing too much performance.

Here are my specs for reference:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D
Current cooler: DeepCool Castle 360EX (bought in 2021)
Case: Phanteks Eclipse P600S
Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix B550-A Gaming (White)

Would you recommend sticking with a 360mm AIO or switching to an air cooler? If you have any specific models to recommend, I’d appreciate hearing about your experiences with them, especially regarding cooling performance, noise levels, and value for money.

Thanks in advance!

I went to UniPC today to check mostly what I can expect with my budget and this was what I was presented:

BUDGET: around 50k

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5500 (3.6GHz) | 5,600 php
GPU: VC-Colorful RTX 3050 6GB v4-v black | 17,000 php
MB: Gigabyte GA-B550M AC WiFi (AM4)|DDR4| | 6,300 php
RAM: 2x T-force Delta 8GB ddr4 3200hz | 9,350 php
Storage: SSD Adata Legend 850 500Gb Gen4 x4 m.2 nvme | 5,500 php
PSU: Gigabyte P550SS 550watts 80+ silver, ATX 3.0 PSU | 2,600 php
Cooler: Gamdias Aura GC9m ARGB white gaming case | 2,000 php
Case: Fan Jungle Astroshel v2g 240 (black) AIO | 3,400 php

Total: 51,750

What I wanted to ask is if they're good or even compatible together and If I could replace some parts with better and cheaper ones (maybe cheaper than 50k with better parts? or am I dreaming too much? haha) and If it would be better If I just build it myself, If so where should I buy parts? (Preferably a trusted and cheap store, tho that's already obvious)

Thank you!

Hello guys just wanna ask your opinions on this controller. If this is better than the normal/regular PS5 dualsense controller. I really want a controller that has haptic feedback and adaptive triggers with back paddles and i stumble upon this controller which is perfect for me but has little reviews. So just wanna ask if you recommend this controller? Thanks.

hello po, should I sell my Acer nitro 5 and build a PC instead? been wondering this for months now if worth it po ba or just keep the laptop and hope for the best?

specs of the laptop:

Intel i5-12500H

16gb ram

rtx 3050 4gb

Been gaming on the Playstation system since I was a kid. Despite being 180 platinum trophies deep, I really cannot ignore Sony’s anti-consumer behavior. If I will be forced into an all digital world, might as well do it on the best platform. Salamat sa lahat ng napagtanungan ko dito!

Not a PC question, but this sub knows setups. I'm looking for an ergonomic chair for 8+ hour workdays. The user is around 130 kg, so I'm looking at chairs rated 145 kg and up, with mesh because of the heat.

Shortlist:
Musso H80 Pro,
Sihoo M57 Pro
FlexiSpot C7 Premium

Not considering gaming chairs.

Anyone heavier using one of these? How's it holding up? Or any other recos available locally?

Salamat!

Hi everyone! I'm planning to start a YouTube channel where I make anime analysis and commentary videos, and I'm looking for a decent microphone.

My budget is around ₱2,500–₱4,000 PHP

• Use case: Analysis, reviews, and commentary with voiceovers recorded separately.
• Recording environment: My room can have background noise from people talking, traffic, and my fans.
• Connection: Preferably USB, since I want something easy to set up on my PC.
• Priority: Clear, natural-sounding voice with decent background-noise rejection.

I've been looking at dynamic microphones such as the FIFINE AM8, MAONO PD200X, and FIFINE K688, but I'm open to other recommendations.

Which microphone would you recommend for my situation?

I'd also appreciate recommendations for reliable Shopee sellers or official stores in the Philippines.

Thanks in advance!

Hope someone could give advice on the budget build attached. Parang hindi naman siya budget pero siya na daw ang cheapest!

I don't have an idea about specs. My ancient PC gave up all of a sudden today and I have to buy a PC ideally by tomorrow to complete a design project.

Tinanong ko lang sa AI yan. Budget ko sana 30k or even less pero imposible daw because I have an upcoming video editing project. Willing to buy 2nd hand (saan pwede?) yung problem ko lang time constraint.

People talk about Gilmore... may magandang place ba doon for 2nd hand na maayos naman and you can get it in a day?

I mainly do A3 posters and have some upcoming youtube video editing projects. If I cant afford a proper build, anong pwede to tide me over for next 3 years. Ok lang sa akin may konting lag.
