    A GTX1660S should be more than enough for your needs
  • @fakuryu 1660s how many gb? and will my PSU be able to support it or I need to upgrade it too?
  • @shaqvalencia

    1660s how many gb? and will my PSU be able to support it or I need to upgrade it too?


    6GB, no yor PSU is more than good enough, it only requires a 450W PSU for the entire system
  • @fakuryu another thing my procie is reaching 80c+ when I am playing Dota 2 all max settings. I think I need to change my stock cpu fan I am looking at Fryst almace as a temporary replacement because of budget restrictions. Is that good enough? or do you have any other brand that you can recommended?
  • @shaqvalencia

    Its normal kasi naka full APU mode ka. I don't think yung Fryst will help you out that much, might as well invest sa maayos na HSF na at least sa Deepcool Gammaxx 300 (800php) kung medyo tight sa budget, but you can get a really good tower HSF nowadays for less than 1.5k. I'd rather invest in:

    hsf, Deepcool Gammaxx 400 (first gen) - 1300php, one of the best budget HSF out there even besting the Noctua U12S

    hsf, ID Cooling SE224 RGB - 1350php a good HSF with RGB if that is what you want

  • @shaqvalencia

    May TG naman yang case mo so makikita mo kung paano nakasetup fan mo kahit hindi ikaw ang naginstall.

    Yung 6 case fans, saan nakalagay yung exhaust and intake?



    -- edited by Ignus on Oct 23 2020, 05:59 AM
  • @Ignus 1 rear exhaust 2 top exhaust 3 front intake kung hindi ako nagkakamali
  • @fakuryu what shop are you referring to with those prices? I already looked at our local shops and easypc but they dont have those models or at that price range
  • ^Okay na pala case fans mo, molex ba or PWM? Kung PWM check mo nalang yung kung naka 100%.

    Search mo sa Sh*p** "SE-224-TX-ARGB" nasa 1.4k Php.
  • ^Okay na pala case fans mo, molex ba or PWM? Kung PWM check mo nalang yung kung naka 100%.

    @Ignus Di ko alam pinagkaiba ng dalawa bro pasensya na newbie lang. Inplay ice tower fans sila. Ano mas recommended mo bili ako ng SE-224-TX-ARGB or kumpletuhin ko ang 10 fans ng case ko?
  • Search mo sa Sh*p** "SE-224-TX-ARGB" nasa 1.4k Php.

    @Ignus nagsearch ako 2.4k price range. Yung 1400 out of stock na sir. Any other model or brand?
  • Tower cooler muna. Sa totoo lang kahit 1-2 case fans na matino pwede na kung APU lang gamit mo.
  • ^ Pag molex fixed yung rpm ng fan mo, pag pwm nacocontrol mo siya or varying yung speed.
  • @shaqvalencia
    Sa akin may nakikita akong 1.4k.

    Anyway try mo rin search sa Sh*p** ito: "TL-AS120", mayroon 1,250 Php lang
  • @shaqvalencia para sakin panget yung Fryst almace kasi 2 heatpipes lang kung bibili ka kuha ka ng at least 4 heatpipes hanap ka na lang sa mga brand na to na swak sa budget mo coolermaster, id cooling, deepcool at yung sumisikat na snowman.
    sharing my temp <click here for link>

    yung case na robin parang pang bling bling purpose lang 2 lang hdd na pwede isang 2.5 at 3.5.
    wala talaga tatalo para sakin sa coolermaster 690 at nr600 mesh for airflow at madaming hdd na pwede ilagay

  • ^Parang nauso na build yung O11 knock-offs tapos lalagyan ng 360mm AIO na kapresyo or mas mahal pa sa mismong CPU.

    Kung bling lang rin ang paguusapan available na ulit yung InWin 103 @ 3.4k lang.

    Di hamak na mas maganda yung build quality nun compared sa Coolman & Tecware. Mas madali pa mapuno ng RGB fans kasi 6 lang yung max 120mm fan mount. Mas maganda rin yung effect ng RGB sa tinted TG panel niya.

    Tapos lagyan mo ng ARGB tower cooler like ID-Cooling SE-234 or Jonsbo CR-1000 or CR-2000 solve na kung RGB talaga trip mo.

    Just search them sa items for sale sa search box dito. Or search mo sa L or sa S:

    hsf, Snowman T4 - 950php and above depende sa version na kinuha mo
    hsf, Jonsbo CR1000 - 1160php
    hsf, Deepcool Gammaxx 400 - 1200php (IMHO still one of the very best HSF as long na hindi i9 or R9 paggagamitan mo)

  • @vhoi33 @Ignus sensya na mga sir nagbuils lang kase ako ng sabayan at kung ano pinakamagandang available na parts. Wala pa masyado alam sa airflow, case at peripherals. Habol ko lang kase Maxed out settings sa dota at rgb nung una.

    @fakuryu Noted sir. Thank you sa suggestion

    alam kong kanya kanyang trip yan and personal preference pero never prioritize having rgb over any other parts of your rig.
  • Mga bossing okay po ba to sa video editing po gagamitin? Halos 33k po aabutin base sa presyo online. At kung meron po kayong suhestiyon mas mainam. Maraming salamat po.

  • I'm trying to complete my rig, and SSD nalang ang kulang.

    Any positive feedback/red flags for Patriot VPN100 SSD M.2 NVMe Gen3x4 (512GB)?

    I'm looking for a cheap NVMe drive with longevity in mind, and this one looks like it fits the bill. The 800TB TBW looks sweet on paper too.

    Any thoughts? May nakagamit na/gumagamit ba nito?
  • @idiot
    Dagdag nalang ng 1-2 case fan sa harap okay na yan sir.
  • Hi po, its been years since I last visited TPC and im really happy na very active pa rin community dito. I'm posting because its high time for me to build a new rig (my current rig is 8+ years old and the last upgrade/update on it was when my MOBO died and also i replaced the GPU).

    Some questions lang po:
    - Compared to pre-pandemic times, sobra laki ba ng tinaas ng PC part prices?
    - Gilmore pa rin ba suggested place to buy parts in person? My last rig was bought sa gilmore iirc.

    - After a little bit of research here are some parts that i'm interested in:
    - AMD Ryzen 5
    - 5700 XT (or maybe there's a better/more cost effective option?)
    - 16GB memory
    - Small SSD for OS purposes lang (i'll be transferring my current HDDs to the new desktop)
    - 650 PSU (or can i use lower)
    - other parts (case, hsf, fans, etc.)
    - Monitor, accessories, not needed

    Budget should be around 40-50k max. Hoping to get some help on this? My primary purpose is gaming of course but it would be great if the build is good to last for 4+ years again.
  • - Compared to pre-pandemic times, sobra laki ba ng tinaas ng PC part prices?


    Not really, nagspike lang yung price nung april to july pero ngayon stable na ulit at near srp na ang presyo.

    Gilmore pa rin ba suggested place to buy parts in person? My last rig was bought sa gilmore iirc.


    Yep but there some good shops also na pwede mabilhan. Pero mostly gilmore talaga.

    I highly suggest to wait for ryzen 5000 series and radeon 6000 series. We might see price drops on 3000 series CPUs and 5000 series cards so you can build better or save.
  • @ckenni
    Cheapest prices na makukuha mo for CPU ay Chinese sellers sa Sh*p**/L*z*d* na mga OEM.

    Pinakamura na R5 3600 nasa 9.6k lang online compared sa 11k+ sa physical shops dito. Minimal risk kasi bihira na masira CPU, dami ng protection na nilagay and kung stock settings lang walang problema, kapag DOA i-refund mo lang kaagad.

    Mobo naman mayroon rin online sa local physical shops, wala masyado difference sa prices ng mga physical stores. Same for RAM & SSD, medyo bumababa narin, expected rin na bababa hanggang next year prices.

    Cases nagkakaroon naman regularly, PSU medyo ubusan lalo na kung may specific needs ka like SFX, shorter depth, modularity, etc. Mahirap mamili ngayon.

    Aftermarket coolers and case fans walang tatalo sa Chinese sellers online. Maraming bang for the buck choices na hindi kilala locally na comparable sa Noctua yung quality and performance.

    Personally, maghihintay ako ng Q1 next year bago magfinalize ng build kasi dami pang upcoming releases. Around Feb or March para tapos na CNY at mabilis lang shipping ng parts galing China.
  • @TPC_GameGuard025 @Ignus
    Thanks po for the replies! I can see na it might be better to wait until next year pero historically malaki po ba binababa ng prices for older models? I'm not sure how long i might be able to hold on considering dead ulit ung current desktop ko.

    Also, di po ako comfortable to purchase high cost equipments online due to a bad paypal experience in the past. Most likely dadaan din po ako sa Gilmore by december kung sakali.
