Buying A New PC, Please Guide Me!

[erwin_rommel]

Thanks for all the info mga bro, wa jud ko masayop sa akong pagpatabang, heheheh

Ang main concern lang nako are:
1. Opening 3-5 PSD (Photoshop) files (up to 7 MB each file)
2. FireFox - mag open ko up to 30 tabs/sites (mostly blogs) and FireFox use too much memory

e6550 will be great for your concern. forget about separate videocards if those are your concerns. anyway, ecs g31t-m consumes only 8mb of your ram( i really dont know why it consumes only 8mb of ram for built in video ) but its enough to make fear run smoothly. thats what im currently using and it rocks.

Target something that's in the middle.... not the latest (kay mahal then dali ra kaayo mo depreciate)... at least di kaayo ka maalkanse sa imo investment. Your budget is good...

I'm going to buy a new PC within this week or next week. Akong maximum budget is P30,000. PC will be used mostly for web design/development - so ang mga apps lang that will run at the same time are: Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator & Dreamweaver, Firefox, IE6, IE7, Safari, Opera, Netscape & Mozilla Thunderbird.

Please advice me sa specs kay VERY, VERY, VERY little knowledge ko when it comes to hardware - keyboard, mouse, monitor ra akong nailhan

Ask pud ko estimated price with the different specs below nga nakuha nako sa mga online stores sa Cebu. Also please let me know if kaya ba mag run ani nga specs sa mga applications listed above nga di magka problema. And lastly, asa ko nga store mopalit...kanang maayo ug service and kanang kamao jud ang technician nga guidan sab ko..?
