Hmm what do you guys think of this PSU: Gigabyte Superb 550P it's 550Watts around 2600 PHP I find stf50 too expensive x.x and this PSU is branded, since people keep insisting to get non stock psu's lol

@TS

silverstone is a good investment kay mau sila ug warranty and service. the st50f is pretty much affordable. you cant go wrong with it.

no offense but.. buying at newegg just for the 3yrs warranty?
the cost of shipping the item there + waiting + shipping the item back (PER item)
plus i didnt find any 3year warranty in their website (Newegg.com - Computer Parts, PC Components, Laptop Computers, Digital Cameras and more!)
it's the same warranty we have here in philippines -
1year warranty - under the seller's name.
next -
If a product is covered under manufacturer's warranty, then it may still be return for warranty, except this time, you shipped it directly to the official distributor or repair service in Philippines.

it's only cheaper to buy at newegg.

wouldnt it cost more?

if you're buying outside philippines, isnt it better to buy the whole computer package under $500-$600?
like
HP United States - Computers, Laptops, Servers, Printers and more
or
http://=http://www.dell.com]Dell Lap...PC Accessories or
a whole computer set at newegg - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...Core%202%20Duo?

shipping plus tax pa diba?

sayangan ko cause you bought the parts already but you cant use them yet.
since cpu price usually go down, i waited for corei7 and phenon II to come out before i buy the quadcore.
Pareha ra ta situation, except that ill buy it in groups.
HDD first (backup everything), Casing next, then Mobo+CPU+Ram with built-in videocard,
Samsung t220 (checkit out) - then lastly videocard

samsung t220-around 13k-14k

anyway, here's my recomendation for the other parts.

1. MOBO + CPU casing - make sure you have decided what kind of Chassis you want.
Do you want FULLTower?, MINI atx, or HPTC?

Casing - choose FullTower, MidTower, mini ATX, normal casing.
also make sure video card fits inside (since you got a big ATI vcard)
Mid tower na lang, since ur under budget - cost around 3-6k.

as for motherboard, there are boards out there that would not fit in the mini atx casing.
somthing inside me is telling to go for P45, i think P43 motherboards are small for mini-atx,
you wouldnt be able to fit a big huge cpu fans like ( cooler master cpu fan - Google Image Search )

or it may look fugly inside a huge atx casing.

you should research more about this.

Mobo i suggest - Asus p5q
or any mobo with atleast 1333fsb.
1600fsb para dual channel sa imu ddr2 800mhz


3. next, decide for the power supply. since you ordered na ATI radeon,
and i think you're going to buy lots of fans, id suggest at least 500wts, not too expensive and not too cheap. silverstone? enermax? around 3-4k range.

i agree with above post, you cant go wrong with silverstone psu.

OT:
ka nindot jud sa T220.. hehe
