pwede yan, also depends on what games you're targeting.

20k = good middle end. Will last around 3-5 years. 30k onwards, high end na... will last until next generation, I guess.

whats better an AMD phenom 2 x2 or should i go with intel core i3 im actually leaning towards the AMD kasi but i might need a better psupply

d ko rin gets kung pano tumingin ng mobo D: mas ok sana kung ok upgradeablity para pde iwan mobo tapos xfire nalang at palit processor nxtym

i5.

i suggest, getting above average pc now. its gaming capacity is usually good for about up to 5 years. i don't suggest not upgrading the mobo

kelangan lang iupgrade mobo kung di kasya yung bago mong processor sa kanya. Haha.

after it's lifecycle because if you already upgraded some of the other parts based on the mobo and your mobo dies on you, then...

yun mga nabili mo na, hindi na pwede sa bagong mobo.

hassle pag lahat palit eh haha and ang mahal ng i5 x.X mawawala budget pang vidcard hahaha and akala ko iba ang core archi ng i7 sa i5?

mas hassle kung nagpalit ka na ng iba tapos hindi pala pwede sa bagong mobo kung nasira yun lumang mobo. hahaha ~30k naka quad ka na niyan.

quad naman ung amd phenom eh haha

sorry na wala ako alam sa amd. puro intel alam ko. haha anong games ba lalaurin mo?

mass effect 1 2 sc2 , gears of war maybe mga release ng xbox kasi d ako bibili ng xbox lol

Murang mura lang 360 ngayon. Haha. May pirated pa kung singleplayer lang habol mo. (although, multiplayer yung maganda sa kanya)

even an i3 can play sc2

you need an i5 to play it on decent speeds

ralegan: yeah pero kasi most 360 games come out on pc narin sooo pc nalang hahaha since maganda releases sa pc nxt year

chrisdlee: gus2 ko ultra high lahat eh

yapkeith: it's all in the budget. the higher the price usually the better

I hate how Starcraft2 ignores CUDA capabilities of your graphics card and forces the CPU to compute shaders and physics. Stupid, really.

so, yes... i5, highly recommended for SC2

ralegan: ah tlga? cpu intensive pala sc2 sayang naman vidcard

how old is your current pc

tingnan mo yung options screen. Ang daming "this feature uses CPU blah blah"...

knocom: 8 years old pare since high 1

ralegan: apparently d rin niya kaya utilize quad cores ang alat ng sc2

senior citizen na nga pc mo haha

knocom: may konting paayos here and there pero everything else is 8 years old lol eh sa laptop na ako parati kaso nababagalan narin ako d2

dude even my Core 2 Duo can play Mass Effect and SC2 on high basta make sure you have a ton of RAM rin, plus vid card of course.

fueledbycola: d pde high lang kasi next time kulang na ung high

...ultra settings. Haha. And mine's nearly 3 years old. So kahit midrange lang na proc kaya naman. I3 baka kaya na.

'kaya na' = good gaming na affordable.

ang hirap if i get i3 obsolete na sha next year and useless na ung mobo if i get i5 prices are like double pati mother board >.>

plus a new vidcard is at 8k shit wag nalang kaya magka HD tapos 4 ddr3 sticks will cost 5k ish huhuhu ang mahal

not to mention with that specs kelangan din ng matinong psupply which fikin hurts too boo parang exponential cost T.T iyak nalang ako

i7 na pls pls. Or Acer Aspire Predator.

Ayaw ko na laptop wik e

Acer Aspire Predator = PC ni Kurt.

happyfingers: aspire makes pcs?

oh i looked at the specs its a little out dated

unless its the newer predator which is like everything top of the line kelan ba nya binili

This year iirc although hellspawn343 would totally recommend otherwise.

happyfingers: of course, mahal eh. Pwede naman build your own, tailored to your needs

happyfingers: for Kurt's needs, ok yun. Pero when on a budget... hehehe

maganda sana ung case kung hindi orange

mukhang orange armored cockroach lolllerskates

yapkeith: ok naman ah, haha badass eh. Parang Megatron.
