PC Builds IDEAS

Updated December 31, 2021 - Intel LGA1700 no Find Your Own GPU List

1. Since ginagawa ko na tong list for more than 10 years na ata sa TIPIDPC, it is time for an update.

2. PSU, unlike 10 years ago ay marami nang decent choices sa market natin. FSP, Corsair, EVGA, Seasonic, Super Flower, Thermaltake, Cooler Master mula 80+ Bronze to 80+ Titanium ay great choices except konting research sa Cooler Master at Thermaltake since minsan ay tinitipid nila ang 80+ Bronze PSUs nila. Seasonic > Super Flower > Corsair/FSP ang magaganda para sa akin. You are almost golden pag Seasonic or Super Flower ang OEM ng PSU mo.

3. Importance heirarchy, not to be confused with my build flow.

PSU - puso ng isang system, huwag tipirin kung may $$$ naman.
CPU - the more cores/threads possible, the merrier since marami nang apps that can take advantage of both core/thread count and speed
MOBO - as long na (decent) 4-phase and above with a good heatsink for an OC board is okay. More is a bit better, check the bells and whistles of what you need, maybe you don't really need that RGB mobo lighting and etc.
Monitor - IPS>VA>TN. Color Fidelity w/ speed = IPS, Decent Color Fidelity w/ speed = VA. Since modern IPS monitors are as fast at TN, there is no need to get a TN anymore unless you have budget constraints.
SSD - Ideally SSD muna kung may budget since it is getting cheaper if used as a main drive
HDD

---Etong mga piyesa ang mga importante para sa akin kasi eto ang mga piyesang pang matagalan na at mahirap palitan.

RAM
ODD - May gumagamit pa ba?

---Unless na 16gb dual channel kit ang bibilhin mo at kung wala ka naman balak sa matinding multi-tasking (yes, multitasking = RAM, hindi lang po CPU), pwede na ang 8GB for gaming even sa windows7/10 64bit pero kung kaya na mag 8GB pataas ay bakit hindi? Tried and tested na ng maraming helpers dito. ODD, either you use it or you don't pero hindi naman lahat sa atin ay marunong magformat from the USB, gagawin ko po itong guide as newb friendly as possible.

ATX
GPU

---Okay din pumili ng magandang ATX at walang masama dun pero huwag lang po pumili ng wala sa budget or mag sacrifice dun sa mga nauna sa taas para lang "wafu" ang itsura. Luckily may maayos at murang cases na from Deep Cool, Aerocool, at Tecware. Kung gusto mo ng magandang GPU, wala din masama pero pag wala sa budget, wag po mag sacrifice ng nasa taas para lang makakuha ng maganda, ipon pa po at tyaga sa IGP muna.

HSF
Keyboard
Mouse
Speakers

---Peripherals, kayang mabuhay ng rig miske wala munang matikas na HSF. Mabubuhay din ang system na hindi Roccat, Razer at Logitech ang KB at mouse. Pwede ka din mabuhay sa libreng speakers muna. Luckily compared to 10 years ago, marami narin SEA brands na maayos gaya ng Tecware at Red Dragon.

Rig assembly, my take:

Madaming newbies ang gustong magbuo ng rig nila, masasabi ko na magandang experience yan. Sa gawain na to, hindi ko na matandaan kung exactly gaano ko na katagal ginagawa ko, estimate ko ay 20 years na? Totoy palang ako ay pinagaaralan ko na po to sa shop ng tita ko sa nag buy and sell ng PC units at sa mga technicians nya More than 20 years experience na!) at gusto ko lang mag share ng ilang sikreto ko.

1. Sa mga newbies na walang idea kung saan mag sisimula, meron pong website na tinatawag na "youtube.com", sa search bar, type, "computer rig assembly". Tandaan lang sana na i-ground ang sarili para hindi masira ang compents mo dahil sa static electricity sa katawan. Pwede mo muna hawakan ang kahit anong malaking bakal na makita mo.

1.1 Sa may mga experience na, eto po ginagawa ko: Mobo tray > screw mounts > masking tape or washer > mobo > washer (ok lang din na wala) screws. Naiiwasan nito ma ground ang mobo sa case, yun lang po. Marami narin nagbago sa manufacturing process ng mobo ngayon and this tip might be useless but is still good practice.

2. Cable ties + imagination = cable management!

Please take note:

1. Kung ang tanong mo ay kung kaya mag OC ng build, yes kaya naman mag OC. Kung magtatanong kung paano, hindi po kita sasagutin hehehe, may ibang thread po dyan.

2. A single yet powerful GPU solution is always the best course, iilang developers nalang ang nagsusupport ng multi-gpu option, most of the time ay may negative impact pa sa performance sa game dahil sa driver issues.

3. Sa builds ko, function muna bago porma. Always.

4. Wala sana magtanong ng, "Sir, paano po pag itong case (insert atx here) ang gusto ko? Pwede po ba?". Please, suggestion ko lang ang atx cases, kung may extra ka pang pera, why not.

5. OCing is not really my thing ^_^ okay na sakin ang 3.8ghz ng Ryzen 5 1600 ko

6. Wala sana magsabi na, "Sir, nagtopak po yung (insert item here)". Miske po tried and tested ang isang unit or item, hindi talaga maiiwasan ang bad batch or lemon item, nararanasan ko din po yan. Kaya itago ang resibo at warranty para sa RMA.

7. Kung gusto malaman kung saan ko po nakuha mga yan, meron po tayong IFS, pa search nalang at ang bawat presyo ng parts at suggested seller's price po.

Sa mga interesado malaman kung ano PC ko (as reference) para hindi na mag PM or mag post pa:

LGA 1700 motherboard selection is pretty good too, DDR4 performance most of the time is the same as the fastest DDR5 RAM performance. Might need to check with the seller of what available cooler is good enough to cool down this beast.

Any build from the 3400G and above can run CAD/PS/LR/PR/Sketchup/Vray/Audacity just take note of:

*Some CAD applications are single threaded and like high frequency processors
*Vray loves a lot of cores/threads
