Need suggestion for buying a desktop PC and printer

[Zuan]

---

Need help dili kaau ko sweto about computers... I plan to buy a desktop pc (intel or AMD). My budget is 20k or less excluding monitor, speaker, keyboard and mouse. I need this for office work, graphic designing and multimedia. I need a very fast pc na dili sya mo hang if im working or using heavy apps. dili sad mo slow down and dili mo init and saba especially dili raba aircon cge akong office (heard man gud room temp affects pc performance). Most of the time im using Corel Draw, Adobe Photoshop and illustrator at the same time. Do i need video card and sound cards? or ok na ang dala sa motherboard.

unsa sad a multifunction printer na inyo ma suggest? what brand and ok bana and CISS? budget is not more that 8k and use ani is for office and sometimes magprint sad ug imgaes for reports.

ECS GF7100PVT-M3L Vpcie/S/GL/raid 2650
http://www.overclockersclub.com/revi...7100pvtm/5.htm

160gb Western Digital SATA 8mb - OS and video scratch disk 2240
this is optional..if u have an exisiting sata80gb..that will do

320gb Samsung SATA 16mb - Files and ADOBE and Corel scratch disk 3540

Transcend 2GB 800 ddr2 1920

PC HD2400Pro 256ddr2 64bit dvi 1920

Vader/Vortex/Pod 08/17/39/ Corp KM 1350

TOTAL 23500

dungagi lang ug gamay ang 20k.

kana xeon is better than any c2d or same speed c2q..and d i man pud ka mu-games..so sakto ra kau na ATI na hd2400..for high res video and graphics editing image display.

2GB na single stick kay 2slots ra ang mobo and single channel capable ra..i-upgrade na lang pud later.

i guest the Video Card is a bottleneck. im not into this kind of work.. but i guess some decent VCard would me nice.

a 64bit Card kinda sucks. and aside from buying another HD go buy another RAM 2gig ram for higher performance.

so scratch the 2240php HD 160gig and buy a / 1920php 2gig ram + buy a ice candy. hahaha.

and m not so sure about the MOBO..

but all in all its a nice setup.. just got to mind the not-so-important stuffs...

maau bana ang ECS GF7100PVT-M3L Vpcie/S/GL/raid? naka suway man gud ko na sunugan ug motherboard and ingon technician its because la na daw ka daog... la sad ko kasabot what he meant.

what can u suggest na better motherboard if u guys dont agree with ECS? ayaw lang nang mahal.

unsa diay sad angay na power supply for the setup mentioned above? 500w? or more? naka try nasad ko 2x guba ako power supply. so i want to make sure when i buy a new pc this time it would at least last me 3yrs without replacing parts.

bro, asa ka kuha sa imo prices? unsa na store? thanks

hmmm...

i great MOBO... go with MSI / ASUS and many more.

i will not say that ECS is a bad mobo.. but in my opinion go buy another one.

500wats would be great... for both the processor and the video card... but like i said go buy a decent video card...

if your not into games.. it will not bottleneck the visual processing.unless ur into 3d rendering..by then u wud need an ATI Fire GL or Nvidia Quadro Pros.
the 8800s' wud be more than enough for the job and too expensive to fit the budget.

so an ATI HD2400 is just right performer for the budget..

but if he wud swell his budget into 30k..

an PC HD2600Pro 256ddr2 128bit dvi @ php 3070.00

or an Inno3D 8500GT 512ddr2 dvi 128bit @ php2760 / Inno3D 8500GT 1gb ddr2 dvi 128bit @ php 3540 wud be great.

like i've posted.. a 160gb wud not be needed if he had an old 80sata..but wud need if its IDE 80gb

video editing needs the fastest hdd it can run.

and adobe/ corel recommends another hdd for scratch disk.

you dont need 4gb of ram if just running win xp x86-32. it will just see and utilize 3.2++GB of the 4GB

the prices are from PCExpress cebu NRA

hmmm.

maybe ur right i cant tell..

well its my opinion...

hehehehe
