I7 set up need suggestion....

[harhar]

---

bitaw murag d mao ang setup... but anyway, processor is overkill, GPU is crap as well as the PSU... forgive me for being blunt... but gone are the days nga prinsipyo nga ihurot tanan sa processor... for heaven's sake processor is not everything in building PCs...

Unsa diay imung 30k build Bro?...

Before I used to go for the fastest cpu, videocard then get the highest end mobo pero these days I usually rank my purchase based on a components estimated useful life and resale value.

Given this criteria, the videocard, cpu and motherboard are the most likely to get outdated and be replaced in 2-3 years time.

I also realized that the lcd monitor, casing, power supply, mouse and keyboard will still be usable after 1 or 2 upgrade cycles so i would spend more for these things.

Components like ram, hdd/ssd are tricky since they fluctuate. I usually apply the "buy it while its cheap" thinking on these things....

Having said that, since windows 7 came out, having a faster processor doesnt really give much noticeable tangible benefits unless you are into heavy computing like video editing, high res graphics editing etc.

For games, a midrange cpu with a mid-highend card will beat the top of the line cpu with a low-midrange card.

I also dont get people who buy huge power supplies so they can get a CF/SLI setup then in a few months time, their setup will be beat by a single card solution.... All this for a few fps boost in performance which isnt really that obvious.

Memory DDR3 4GB 1333Mhz Kingston <== d jud ni pde, lols..
TOMMADE 800W high-end PSU <== unya nag libog q ani?? 800 watts mura naman ka ani ug mag SLI ug crossfire ka ng tag duha video card. ang imng video card kaya raman nag 350 or 400watts bsta branded lng.. lols..

btaw boss,, follow lng sa advise dri.. i5 ra jud imng nid, pde gani i3 ra..

SILVERSTONE!!! mao nay pinaka d best nga powersupply dri cebu...

I put some specs together. I am assuming you do not overclock and may not need to and will just rely on stock cooling. I did my best to maximize the graphics card. Everything here is based on the PCX price list except for the 6850 which I got from Gaisano Interpace's list. Your budget is not enough for an i-7 with a decent card. Gaming requires only an i5 and an i7 will not benefit you at all.

Motherboard: Asrock H61M-DGS -> 2,400
Processor: Intel Core i5-2400 -> 8,300
Ram: G.Skill RipJaws 8gb 1333 -> 2,250
Video Card: 1GB ATI Radeon 6850 DDR5 256bit -> 7,295
PSU: - SilverStone Essentials 500watt +80 -> 2,900
Casing: AeroCool X One Advance - 2,600
HDD: 500gb WDigital Blue -> 3,550

Total - 29295
