[niehrx]

Hi PC Experts,

I'm planning to build a command center(WorkStation) at home.
I need ur advice unsa pinaka best nga specs para sa akong kinahanglan.

I'm not into gaming.
I'm a database guy which means
i need to have transactional based pc.
I need pc that supports running many services (background).
should support up to 2 virtual pcs.
Dual monitor.

budget: up to 30k

budget: up to 30k

processor: intel quad core Xeon -> i think baratu2x nalang ni xa karn. less than 10k?
memory: 2 2gb memory sticks ->it will cost around 2-2.5k. but if budget permits go for more memory since your using 2 virtual pcs.
video card: nvidia? ati? whichever you choose you can't go wrong here. just choose a mid end card to handle two monitors so that your cpu will be utilized for other processes. ->choose a card that is around 4-6k range.
hard disk: you could go for 500gb seagate black ->costs around 3k or maybe less.
mother board: as for mother board you can buy that costs around 4-7k.

if you still have enough budget after buying everything else. add more to your memory. 4gb of memory costs only 2k each in pcx.

This is only a guide on the specs based on your use and budget, prices are only rough estimates. You have to do some research on the models and etc.

thanks this is what i really wanted... but the problem is, i dont have any idea. what particular model for the motherboard, and video card?
sa memory pud unsa man siya ddr3?

mao ni akong specs pa.

Intel Xeon X3430 (2.4ghz) s1156 9,795.00 @ gaisano interpace.

ok here's a decent spec from GI pricelist.

Intel i5-2500K (3.3Ghz up to 3.7Ghz) 9,495.00
mother board: ASUS P7H55-M/VSL 3,795.00
vcard: 1 GB Nvidia GeForce GTX550Ti 128bit DDR3 4,595.00 ->optional since the mother board supports both vga and hdmi output and i5-2500k has graphic processor. But i would still recommend to utilize the cpu for other processes.
memory: 2x Memory DDR3 4GB 1333Mhz Kingston 895.00 ->or if you would like a heat sync attached to it you can go to pcx it costs around 2k each.
hd: SATA 1 TeraByte Seagate 7200rpm 4,195.00 -> in case database gets quite big in the long run.

I think that's it. just add other stuffs like optical drives, casings, etc.

hope this helps.
