[aguisanda2000]

[mE_bytes]

Lite-On 20x LH-20A1/3L lightscribe& sata 1490
19" Hanns-G HW191 widescreen 9310

~34,250.00, pun.e nalang ug gamay para sa casing ug branded power supply unit and aother peripherals you wish to add.. all items are quoted from pcx..

[mE_bytes]

so you want to trim it down but it's a gaming rig.. unsa man imo actual budget jud?

[aguisanda2000]

I can't say nga gamer gyd ko, just want enough specs nga makaplay ug latest games without sacrificing quality, well probably not the latest gyd... in any case the PC will be mostly used for browsing and work... just want to be able to play kung ma bored na... budget is around 30K...

[kazki]

maybe you can settle for amd counter parts...that'll be abit cheaper.

Pila man gyud sad diay imo budget? 35K

EDIT:

Aw ok. 30K imo budget. Why not go with a Brand new CRT monitor?

LG 17 8,600.00 = mahal ra man kaayo ni for a monitor. Is this an LCD?

EDIT2:

You could also go with kazki sugesstion about using AMD stuff (Processor and Mobo) I actually bought a few weeks back the follwoing:

AMD X2 4000+ Brisbane
MSI K9N Neo-F V3

ALL for 7K.

[kazki]

if you're really into gaming...maybe you can trim down the cpu and mobo (amdx2 will do) and pump it up for your videocard, a decent PSU and some for your memory also..

[aguisanda2000]

yup lcd na bro, sa PCX na nga quote...

This two really are the ones that are making his setup expensive:
Intel Core 2 Duo E4500 2.3GHZ/800/2MB 5,040.00
Gigabyte GA-P31/C2d/Quad/1333MHZ/DDR2 4,750.00

If it was an AMD option, the overall price could be lowered.

Kani ako gipalit sa PC Express ato two weeks ago boss.
AMD X2 4000+ Brisbane (3,020)
MSI K9N Neo-F V3 (3,540)

NOTE: Back then pagpalit nako, duha ra ila available na AMDx2 ang 5000+ ug ang 4000+. THey also charge 300 pesos for assembly.

AMD X2 4000+ = 3,020
AMD X2 5000+ = 4,830

BTW, gud luck sa imo purchase and enjoy. :mrgreen:

@mE_bytes: that's also a GOOD OPTION!!! :mrgreen:

[mE_bytes]

and your not into heavy gaming.. so a generic 500w psu would do the job.. pwede na nimu i.dsregard ang enermax 535 Power supply unit..
