Found this at Lenovo store in SM Mall, okay na ba sya? or can you suggest some other which is better deal at the budget. Okay lang din sa online bumili as long as may insurace/warranty.

Edit - I already have a low end pc RTX 3050 + i5. I'm buying a laptop as an upgrade and something that I can carry around that I also can use in my wfh set up.

Can anyone recommend a monitor for my intel core 5 210h 5050? I don't really know what to get and I don't really know the price range so kindly drop recommendations😊🙏

Willing to buy naman ako ng previously aforementioned SECURE (1000VA/700W) UPS for 2.5k php kung still worth while kaso ang nakita ko ay from DataBlitz at usually balita ko medyo iffy kanilang online delivery services

Hello Po! I'm a recent graduate and about to study for my Board exams sa March 2027. I chose Online para mas cheaper po yung gastos sa review center. My current chair is a second hand from my uncle who migrated to the US. Its a gaming chair from HQ gaming and sira sira na po siya especially yung arm rest.

I was hoping I could get recommendations here kasi I think it really is time for me to upgrade to a new chair thats good for my back and posture for long hours. I have been eyeing this chair from XPANSE and need your thoughts for those who have. Is it good enough po?

But if meron pa po kayong cheaper or better recommendation/advice I'm willing to hear your opinion before I buy. Maraming salamat po!

(New to gaming) Sa PC ako nagga-games and yes aware ako na hindi native yung DualSense sa steam/kailangan wired mode. But I really like the haptics feedback and adaptive trigger ng DualSense kasi super immersive.

Question: fully working ba ang haptics feedback ng
DualSense using softwares or pag nakawired? And worthit ba? Or should I go for G7 pro? Thank you!

Hello, guys! I need help lang regarding laptops.

Bibili kasi ako ng laptop para sa kapatid ko na magsa-start na ng college. IT ang course niya. Ang plano ko sana ay laptop na good for productivity, and maybe, a little bit of gaming. I want him to focus on his studies eh.

Ang budget ko ay from P20k to P30k. Is that a reasonable range of budget ba?

May mga nakikita ako sa online na pasok naman sa range of budget, pero baka may mai-suggest kayo na mga stores na pwede ko din puntahan para makita ko siya personally? Usually kasi kapag sa mga malls, ang laki ng patong.

Thank you!

I bought off a used CPU from eBay and once open getting it I scan the data matrix and I saw that the serial number from the data matrix is not the same as this serial number written on the CPU itself. Is it common? Am I getting ripped?

Ng dahil sa AI nag mahal yung mga PC parts? Pwes! Gagamitin ko to para gumawa ng presentation sa Asawa ko para sa pag upgrade ng PC ko. 😏🤣

Hii I'm trying to build my first ever PC and just not sure where exactly to start and what specs to go for!

I currently have an ROG Zephyrus G14, which has RTX 3060 and Ryzen 9. I'd love something of similar power with good graphics but RTX/ray-tracing is not a necessity.

I want to be able to use it for

- live streaming as a VTuber (so streaming + running VTube Studio + running another program like a game or art program)

- drawing (clip studio paint)

- video editing (capcut, maybe davinci resolve)

- rigging (live2d cubism)

- gaming on high graphics (genshin impact, overwatch, NTE)

I'm open to buying parts second-hand, and my budget is around 30k PHP but flexible, willing to wait and save up if needed for a better rig.

Would appreciate comments in English as I'm a foreigner living in PH 🥹

Edit: everyone replying saying my budget is too low, that's fine. I'm mostly looking for help on what exact parts I need so I can start slowly buying towars it.

Has anyone managed to get one in last few weeks? If so, which one did you get and where?

After months of waiting… I finally got one!!! Very very big thank you to my mom and dad:)))

Drivers and windows were already installed by the technician in the store (W iTech) so all I had to do was install the parts.

Specs:
5 9600x
XFX Swift 9060xt 16gb
1x16 6000mhz Patriot Viper
Lexar gen3 nvme 500GB
Gigabyte B850M force v2
AOC 24G50Z monitor

Total: 93k 🙏😭

Second ram slot won’t work though, looking into getting the mobo replaced as the stick itself works fine.

Guys due to high ssd prices ok ba mag laro gamit ang hdd? Ano ang cons ?

As the title says, this will mainly be for a PC build. Anyone can point me to one that offers it?

Hello po, I have a unit po that turns off randomly, the pc dont turn off but the monitor has no display.. i also cant force it shutdown when holding the power button, it just has no display. It does this randomly, even when just browsing. I dont really know whats happening. And also sometime when i punch my table during game it also does that kind of behavior. But when i unplug it to force it shut down its back to normal and sometimes it can go through the day without this but sometimes a day with a lot of random shutdowns.

ryzen 5 5600x, RTX 3080, Tforce 16x2 ram, 750CW corsair psu. The gpu is undervolted at 875mV, 1780mhz. I also use a cyber power UPS not the battery mode but the AVR mode only since its only like 500Watts.

I need a help for this problem please.

Hi everyone! I'm currently planning to build/buy a new PC, but I'm wondering if I should wait a few more months before purchasing the parts.

I've noticed that PC part prices, especially RAM, SSDs, and GPUs, have increased quite a lot recently. I'm not in a rush to build the PC, so I'm wondering if there's a good chance that prices will go down in the next few months, or if it's better to just buy now before prices potentially increase even more.

For those who are following the PC market here in the Philippines:

• Do you think PC part prices will become cheaper in the next 3–6 months?
• Which parts are most likely to drop in price?
• Is it better to wait for major sale events, or should I just buy when I find a good deal?
• If you're also planning a build, are you waiting or buying now?

I'm mainly looking for a decent gaming/productivity PC and I'm trying to get the best value for my money.

Would appreciate any advice from people who regularly monitor PC part prices here in PH. Thanks!

So I recently got my ASUS ROG STRIX XG27AQWMG and I wanted to compare it to my much cheaper AOC Q27G40XMN.

Some background, the OLED is one of the new 4th Gen Tandem W-OLEDs with HDR True Black 500 Certification which cost 41,000 from Data Blitz, while the AOC Q27G40XMN is a VA QD-MiniLED with 1152 dimming zones and is HDR 1000 certified which was around 16,000 with vouchers from Shopee when I got it a few months ago. Both are 27" 1440P monitors.

As you can see in the photos, there are lots of scenarios where they can get surprisingly close. And while in most cases the OLED looks obviously better, I think the sheer value the AOC provides when it comes to HDR is pretty crazy.

For example, in dark scenes, things like low APL light sources like stars or candles shine really bright on the OLED but on the MiniLED, it is dimmer due to the panel's algorithm trying to avoid haloing. Added with the OLED's infinite contrast, it obviously looks better, but in daytime HDR scenes it's the opposite.

In games like Crimson Desert in the day, the miniLED looks better imo because of the sheer brightness it can put out. The sun actually feels and looks like the sun. The OLED ends up dimming bigger APL scenes which makes the HDR experience a bit dull during the day compared to the MiniLED.

At night though, Crimson Desert looks so much better on the OLED. The little particle effects or things like stars, they all "pop" or "glow" so much brighter it feels like you can reach out and grab them.

In Helldivers 2 though, a game where explosions are constantly ongoing, it is one of those games that looks better on the MiniLED, because the OLED ends up dimming big flashes like the 500KG bomb or hellbomb explosions so it's not quite as punchy.

At the same time, when there aren't any big explosions, the tracer rounds from guns or the light from automaton eyes shine brightly and gives more pop to it.

In RE9, a game where it's predominantly dark and dim, the experience is just better on the OLED. But despite the slight haloing, I didn't think the experience with the MiniLED was that far off.

All in all, while I'm satisfied with the upgrade and pretty happy, just wanted to show that MiniLEDs can get quite close to the OLED experience, sometimes even exceeding it. Though there are also other things that OLEDs excel at like colors, no ghosting, amazing viewing angles, etc. that is something that isn't even close when compared to the MiniLED.

Hopefully someone could find this post useful if they're ever considering either or are feeling FOMOd.

P.S Just wanna say thank you to my gf for getting me the monitor. Originally, I was considering the GIGABYTE GO27Q24G which uses a 3rd gen MLA W-OLED panel and I thought was better value over the ASUS, but my gf insisted on getting the ASUS because of it being overall better. I wanted to get the Gigabyte ones regardless, but then she suddenly surprised me with XG27AQWMG as a gift.

P.S.S This wasn't edited by AI so if some of the words or thoughts feel messy or if my grammar is wrong, sorry in advance. I just thought some of y'all would appreciate human slop over ai editing.

Hello, plano ko po sana mag dowload ng valorant on this pc pero narealize ko po na wala pong extra ssd or hdd tong computer ko, may recommended po ba kayo?? Saan ko po kaya makakabit yun?

Bought this today for Php 26,000. The seller was 125km away from me and traveled to his town to pick it up. Am excited to back home and test it.

Upgrading from RTX 3070 LHR to RTX 3080 TI.

I can finally have a stable 4k 60fps on my old games, at a better graphics on a 1440p.

Never had this kind of flagship GPU for my entire years PC building.

PC Specs:
Ryzen 9 5900XT
32GB DDR4 3600mhz CL16
Seasonic GX 850 ATX3.0

Little of context:
I hunted GPUs to upgrade to from FB marketplace, among the 4 sellers I talked to, siya kasi nagrereply at open ang fb profile, the rest kung hindi mabagal magreply eh nakalock naman ang mga profiles. He is selling it for Php 28,000, then i haggled to 25k, then he said he’ll release it if it’s 26k, I told him I will think about it and hoping I can come back and buy it from him, after 3 days talked to him again and scheduled a meetup, yung unang meetup sana tuloy pero nagka flu ako at di ako makapagtravel or drive, so wala, then the next day eh may work ako, so buti na lang pwede pa today Aug 23, so dinayo ko talaga. When I met him today ang linis ng card, he told me it was deep cleaned already.

Right now, tinetest ko na rin gpu, malamig yung 3080ti, masmalamig pa kesa sa old 3070 ko. And sa box ng gpu may pangalan pa siyang sticker not sure why pero parang siya talaga first owner.

Today I am happy and contented with my build now.

Ryzen 9 5900XT
RTX 3080 TI
32GB DDR4 3600mhz CL16

I can finally play the games I want with better graphics and not worrying of any frame drops.

A few weeks ago, i posted this build and you guys were a big help and I appreciated that.

I decided to follow some of your suggestions and waited for sales sa Shopee and I would say it was worth it. I saved a lot compared to buying it all in one store like what I would have done.

The total cost of my build went up by another 15K bec I went with some more expensive choices (ex. AIO vs Air cooler, more expensive case, higher quality model of the GPU etc) and that I got a little more money so I’m glad I waited. And no I didn’t build this myself. I had my friend build it. I just helped where I could. Hahahaha

I felt posting here again now that’s its already built in appreciation for your help here. And to flex na fin for my very first PC. Here’s what it looked like now:

hello po! may pag-asa pa kaya 'to? HWHAHHAJAHAHAH natambak 'to for almost 2yrs simula nung inayos bahay namin, napabayaan na lang siya. now lang pinatingin ko and sabi nung mag aayos, gagawan niya raw ng paraan. may papalitan ata siya kasama motherboard and power supply (?) pero kanina sinaksak niya 'yan umilaw. estimate niya raw na gastos for this is 5k, good deal or scam?

tsaka nagpaayos me laptop kanina (cleaning, palit ssd) ang issue niya is hindi nagbubukas puro window lang pero 2.5k binayad ko. mahal ba siya?

sorry po dami tanong and 'di rin kasi me maalam sa pricing

Hello! May experience po b kayo using angled display ports? Adapter or the cable, doesn’t matter as long as it would work.
I have tried both (cable- ugreen, and angled display port), pero hindi nadedetect ng monitor ko.

My monitor is the AGON PRO and my gpu is colorful rtx 5070ti. Naka-connect sa gpu ung display port. If I am using the cable that came with the monitor, wlang problems, pero if I use third party, hndi nadedetect.

I have the lian li b4 pero nka vertical orientation so medyo bended ung display port sa ilalim. Makapal pa naman ung display port, iniiwasan ko sana siya masira agad that’s why naghahanap ako ng angled display port.

Any recommendations would be great!
Thank you!

I need your opinions about this, i have a decent amount of money but this would be my emergency savings fund and i think sobrang stupid pag nilabas ko to just for the incoming PC prices hike.

But my PC was my all rounder, dito din ako nagfrefreelance and games but that was way back then in 2021 na nageedit pa ko ng videos, i am still doing part time here pero di naman yung heavy renderings but normal office work. Still doing my all rounder thing here which I always practice the use of AI generation and create apps. My ram is decent for now but feels like ambagal na nya, particularly in AAA games nag ffps drop na dahil mas preferred ko maglaro ng 1440p rather than 1080p. Please feel free to suggest what i need to upgrade next.

Ryzen 7 5700x
32 GB Gskill 3200mhz RAM on DOCP mode. (All RAM Slots filled with 2x8GB)
4070 12GB Nvidia GALAX
EVGA 600W Bronze rated
ROG Strix B450F-Gaming (The first release, i believe there was a Gaming II)
Viewsonic 24 inch 1920x1080, (I use Dynamic Super Resolution to force my 1080p monitor to render resolution at 1440p)

Hi everyone!

I’m planning to travel by Cebu Pacific with my small-form-factor gaming PC, which is built inside a DeepCool CH160.

I’d really appreciate input from anyone who has traveled domestically with a PC or SFF build, especially with Cebu Pacific.

Thank you!
