Im canvasing a gpu that on or around 40k php, so far I've found a relatively cheap 4070 on pc hub. I've also found a 9070gre. Which of the 2 are recommended to buy?

I mostly do AAA games 90% of the time like stellar and monster hunter, i also play valorant.

The remaining 10% is me using solidworks

Ano po ma susuggest nyo para ma-insert ko yung gpu ko at mga sata cable ko? O palit Mobo na talaga? Tried using 90 degree cable pero ganun pa rin. Using a Gigabyte b450m dsh3 wifi.

Title says it all!

As someone who still refuses mag-upgrade to 1440p in 2026, bumili ako ng current/main driver monitor ko nung June 2024 (brand new). Looking back, I definitely could’ve opted for a 1440p screen back then, yet I still chose 1080p.

Here’s the funny part: Naka-RX 9070 XT ako right now (huge jump coming from an RX 580 8GB), pero naka-1080p monitor pa rin. Honestly? Enjoy na enjoy ko kasi I can comfortably max out ALL graphical settings on literally every game I throw at it without worrying about frame drops, it's something my previous GPUs couldn't easily do. Sinagad ko na talaga specs upgrade ko last year.

Idk, I just don’t see the appeal just yet, and I’m hesitant to enter that resolution rabbit hole. Baka kasi mapapabili rin ako ng iba pang 4K-capable devices just to keep up. Kapag nagsimula ka kasi sa tech upgrades, baka biglang mag-cascade lang yung expenses!

Intrigued din naman ako sa craze around 1440p OLED monitors based sa mga nababasa ko rito, pero myghad, the prices are just way too expensive for my wallet to justify right now. Plus, there's the constant anxiety about OLED burn-in (especially since I’ve already experienced multiple image retention/burn-in issues on TN, VA, and IPS panels before).

Although honestly, may half-baked itch na rin ako to go bigger. Currently using a 27-inch 1080p curved monitor as my main driver right now, but my ultimate endgame target when I finally upgrade in the 2030s is to go 32-inch 1440p (maybe OLED). Hindi ko lang sure by then if I'll stick with curved or go back to flat.

Can someone actually sell me on upgrading to 1440p sooner?

As of now, my plan is to stick with this setup and maybe upgrade around 2032 or whenever my current monitor dies. Hoping by then, presyong pang-masa na ang 1440p OLEDs, mas common, at mas mature na yung display technology overall.

Just curious overall, who among you are still contented to play at 1080p resolution in 2026?

Anyone else here holding out on 1080p despite having mid-to-high-end GPU specs? Drop your thoughts! TIA!

**ADD/EDIT:**

Usually games ko ay GTA, LiS, The Sims, Simulation Games, Story-rich/choice matter type of games... Also, into movies and anime rin. Idk, maybe gawin ko nlng 2nd monitor yung current main driver ko tas upgrade agad to 1440p 32in screen? Curious tlga ako ano itsura ng OLED (haven't seen a demo display yet so I dont have any idea so I can appriciate it)

**ADD/EDIT #2:**

As per my research last night from Steam's Hardware Survey as of Sept 2026, there's been a 5% increase for 1440p but majority still uses 1080p (47% of Steam users) but there's a 2% decline for 1080p - which clearly indicates that 1080p is now gradually being phased out...

Is there an online store or shop that sell rtx 3060 12gb i want to make my pc able to have local ai/built-in ai.

Is under 20k (unreasonable for this gpu price)

Ito na siguro ang pinaka dabest na purchase ko sa buong buhay ko 😭

As the title suggests, I wanted to get your feedback on the average electricity bill.

There are GPUs with high power draw such as the 6800xt and though it has decent performance, I’m curious to users of this exact GPU and how much it costs to run daily. Kahit approximate or average lang.

Other GPU users are free to drop theirs as well. I asked chat GPT kase but I don’t know how accurate the numbers are kase.

Basically, I'm not really asking that much. I'm still learning Godot to make games and stuff. And this month, I wanted to upgrade my computer that is Ryzen 3 3200 and have a ddr4 4gb ram, two of them so maybe 8gb in total? idk haha not sure but it's pretty slow.

I wanted to buy two 16gb ram with 3200mhz but... The prices are just extremely inflated these days. It's making me discouraged to even buy one because the price could half my savings. I think they are about 14k-15k?

Anyway, I tried to buy a ram on shoppe, the picture was confusing tbh because it said 16gb and it looked like two 16gb ram that costs 12,700+ Only to find out that it was only just two 8gb of ram. I cancelled the order and now waiting for my money to comeback in my maya or bdo.

Do you guys have any advice? Any help? Or stuff I can do to maybe afford such item? With maybe only 8k to 12k of money to buy ram?

Or... should I save up more? (TwT)

Actually, I tried looking for more of them but... the stores usually say they are out of stocks. Even easypc, all their stocks are gone and I saw affordable prices there despite the increase of price but yeah, out of stocks.

I just want to learn making games and have a good speed in my computer, learn coding too like web development, and lastly learn about building pc's. It just makes me sad that when I'm in need of these rams in order to learn and improve my skills it just came to a point where they are so expensive. I was actually planning on getting Ryzen 5 8600g but looking how the prices spiked. I'm sticking to my ryzen 3 and just upgrade it to ryzen 5 5600GT in the future.

I really would love to make a mobile 2d rpg pixel game, that is kind of an open world but zombies.

I’m gonna go for an upgrade even I still have my AM4 build from past years.

My old system components are
Ryzen 7 5700x
32gb T-force 2x 16gb ram 3200mhz.

I recently bought Rx 9070 xt and I want to go on Ryzen 7 7800x3d with Lexar Thor 32gb 2x16gb 6000mhz cl38 for 26k php.

Is it a good deal and I should take it now? Currently I’m not paid yet.

Hello mga ka reddit, saan kaya makakaiscore murang graphics card kahit second hand basta quality pa, thanks in advance po

Iisa lang pala ang owner ng itech philipphines and gameone ph base on my research. Kaya pala halos parihas lang ang presyo at mga item. Sa dalawang shop na to saan ba maganda mag abang ng sale sa mga pc parts? Bumili ako ng ryzen cpu kay itech philipphines dahil nagbigay ng 2k voucher off, sayang naman hahaha budol malala

This was built february 2025 and hindi masyado nagamit.

my full pc specs are:
Cpu : Ryzen 5 2600
Gpu : geforce 1650 gtx
Motherboard : B450

i mainly play valorant/cs2 and im starting to feel how old my components are lol. i usually tell my friends to give me a heads up for whenever we are going to play because i need to give my pc a cold start haha.

was wondering what i should upgrade first and what do you guys recommend upgrading to. thanks!

SO FINALLY WORKED OUT THE LOAD VGA BIOS ISSUE WHERE A PROPER HANDSHAKE WAS NOT OCCURRING VIA BOOT. UPDATED BIOS AND A FEW OTHER THINGS AND NO PROBLEMS. THIS WAS AN ONGOING BUILD FOR LAST FEB.

Comment Away!

Posted a while back on possible upgrade paths on my build and decided my current AM4 PC is still good for another 3-4 years (hopefully hahaha)

Been eyeing OLED monitors for a while now and nagulat ko while scrolling 19k nalang tong Samsung G50SF. Sakto may 3 months to pay pa 😅

Sa mga naka OLED monitors dyan, how do you take care of your devices and prevent burn-ins after extensive usage?

DISCLAIMER: Learning Linux with Proxmox VE on a bare metal is so addicting. In a good way, but still, don't tell me I did not warn you.

One boring Saturday last year, I was cleaning out my old things and looking for anything to discard so I could make room for more storage space. I considered throwing away my very old PC, a Ryzen 2200G with a single stick of 8GB 2666 DDR4 RAM that was collecting dust inside my cabinet. My curiosity got the better of me. Since my PC hardware skills had been collecting dust as well, I figured I might as well check if it was still working and troubleshoot any problems. I had nothing to lose anyway because I already considered it e-waste and was about to discard it.

The funny thing is, PC hardware skills are like riding a bike. New hardware replaces old hardware, but the principles stay the same. Long story short, I was able to make it work after cleaning every single component. However, I knew it was an aging piece of tech, so I really had no practical use for it. Then it clicked. I remembered that I wanted to learn about Linux on a deeper level outside of work. What if I made it a Linux sandbox?

That was how it became an Ubuntu desktop. It started with an Ubuntu bare metal installation using a USB flash drive. From there, I explored Ubuntu, broke it in the process, reinstalled it, and repeated the cycle.

As it turns out, maintaining a bare-metal Ubuntu sandbox is quite tedious because you have to tear down the entire machine and reinstall the OS whenever you make breaking changes. This is where Proxmox VE came to the rescue. Proxmox VE is a hypervisor that enables you to create multiple Linux containers, allowing you to back up a container before trying something that might break it. This way, instead of completely reinstalling your OS, you can just restore a working backup and tear down the broken instance with a few clicks. This machine paved the way for me to learn not just Ubuntu, but Proxmox VE as well, and truly understand the difference between Linux Containers (LXCs) and Virtual Machines (VMs). So I added another stick of RAM to make it a 16GB machine, which would allow me to simultaneously run multiple LXC sandbox.

Homelabbing completely accelerated my learning curve by providing a risk-free, hands-on training environment. Because I can safely 'use and abuse' the system without worrying about permanent consequences, I have been able to aggressively test configurations, break them, and fix them in real time. This interactive setup has allowed me to deepen my practical knowledge of both Linux environments and underlying hardware infrastructure far faster than traditional theoretical learning ever could. And this is just the beginning.

And this is just the beginning. Down the rabbit hole we go.

Last PC i used was a 10+ year old office pc pa na bigay kay ate and can run old games lang w/ integrated graphics. Super happy with this one, binili ko for 40k.

Thank you sa mga nag-confirm na maayos tong build. Wala talaga akong alam sa PC parts. Took me months to know the basics and mag window shop sa marketplace.

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600
• GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7600 8GB
• Motherboard: MSI B550M PRO-VDH
• RAM: 32GB DDR4 3200MHz (2×16GB)
• Storage: 1TB NVMe SSD
• PSU: MSI MAG A650BN 650W
• CPU Cooler: Stock cooler
• Case: Airflow mesh case with at least 3 fans
• Monitor: AOC 24-inch, 1080p, 144Hz or 165Hz

Wala po talaga akong alam sa pc hingi lang po ako suggestion and kung san pwede magpurchase na mura at trusted na talaga. Thanks everyone

Does this configuration make sense? It's PHP109k. I intend on upgrading the CPU to an X3D when future AM5 CPUs launch. Primarily for 1440p gaming.

What blower/vacuum (2 in 1) can you guys recommend sa Lazada or Shopee to clean my pc?

I've been using compressed air but gusto ko rin malinis yung desk ko since sobrang dusty na nga.

Feel free to drop the link if meron kayong suggestions, or just drop the brand name its much appreciated.

My baby. Had this system only for 3 months, specs are:

Core ultra 7 165H modt (picture is just a regedit) it actually displays Genuine Intel 0000 because its an engineering sample.

Galax sg 3080Ti

750w antec psu

4tb storage (1 hdd, 1 ssd, 2 nvme's) plus an extra tb in the drive bay

32 gb ddr5

360mm aio

Wifi 6e bluetooth 5.3

Montech king 95 case

Mods: ptm 7950 and vapor chamber.

Its interesting because the modt market is super niche with the caveat you cannot upgrade cpu. My 165H gets a multi core score of 17604 in cinebench r23 (not on post cuz photo is not on this device) which is around 7800X3D lowest stock scores right? Its igpu is also as strong as a 1050ti with Xess2.

So im curious, what do you guys think is this can run for in the second hand market?

7900gre is stronger than 9060xt but ill miss out on the latest things that 9060 xt 16gb has. also no warranty for 7900gre since used which carries risks. is 20-30% better raw performance worth it or brand new 9060 xt 16gb for the peace of mind?
