i would say yes. bulk of your customers would be into gaming. internet and office/word processing will be the last.

imho, the specs should be at least a PIV 3.0 GHz (although a dual core is preferred), at least 1GB of RAM and around 256-512 MB Video Card.

Kung 24k lang budget, you'd be hard-pressed to satisfy the gamers...

Core Duo, 256MB vidcard, 160GB hard disk and 1GB of RAM is the entry level. Then a 17" flat CRT screen (a similar LCD costs significantly much more). Buy a solid mobo (one equipped with at least 800mhz FSB, PCI Express and built-in Firewire sockets). Wag magtipid dito.

I think 24k is enough for a unit. We assembled some PCs for 15K. P4 3.0GHz, 40GB HDD, 256MB DDR RAM, 128MB Video Card, 17" Monitor na din (Php2,500).

Ok naman so far. Can handle yung gusto ng mga gamers....

Anong specs ng PC?

Big Broke, heres my 2 cents :

Gamecentric setup A
Processor : ATHLON64 X2 3600+ or 3800+ (AM2, Dual core) - ~4000
Motherboard : Asus M2N-E (AM2, ATX) - ~5000
Graphics Card : Nvidia 7600 GS card 256 mb (Asus, Leadtek, MSI, eVGA,XFX) - ~4500
Memory : DDR2-667 512 MB x 2 - ~3000
HDD : (SATA) 80GB or 160 GB HDD, any brand - ~3000
Optical Drive : DVD RW (Lite On or Ben Q) - ~2500
Monitor : LCD 19", choose a high res (phillips and samsung) - ~10000
Case/Power supply : Good ventilated case and 350~400W power supply - ~2000
keyboard/mouse : Generic USB keyboard and USB optical mouse - ~Free
: TOTAL - 34000

Gamecentric setup B
Processor : ATHLON64 X2 3600+ or 3800+ (AM2, Dual core) - ~4000
Motherboard : Asus M2N-E (AM2, ATX) - ~5000
Graphics Card : Nvidia 7600 GS card 256 mb (other lesser know brands) - ~3700
Memory : DDR2-667 512 MB x 2 - ~3000
HDD : (PATA) 80GB or 160 GB HDD, any brand - ~2500
Optical Drive : DVD RW (Lite On or Ben Q) - ~2500
Monitor : LCD 19", choose a high res (Acer, BenQ,…) - ~8500
Case/Power supply : Good ventilated case and 350~400W power supply - ~2000
keyboard/mouse : Generic USB keyboard and USB optical mouse - ~Free
: TOTAL - 31200

Difference between the 2 is on the graphics card and LCD, with option B opting for least expensive brands and on the HDD which opted for Parallel ATA which would save you ~3K from setup A.

Medyo sumobra sa budget pero kung maglalaro ng new games, you need power on graphics card. I opted for AMD since their bang for the buck is better on entry level gaming platform but if you can get a good deal on an Intel Core 2 Duo E4300/4400 or E6300/6320, then go for it. Intel Core 2 Duo is a newer architecture and will have a better upgrade path. In anycase, the dual core AMD should be cheaper nowadays, tapos yung mga DDR2-667 mems should also be cheaper than their DDR-400 counterparts.

Note : setup above don't include the OS (~2 to 3K for win xp pro), headsets (200~400 php) and webcam (500 ~ 600php : china made but are high res).

I've also made another setup but this time more centered on surfing the interent and catering to office suites :


Officecentric setup C
Processor : ATHLON64 3000+ (AM2, Single Core) - ~2500
Motherboard : M2N-MX (AM2, Micro ATX) - ~3500
Graphics Card : Integrated with M2N-MX - ~Integrated
Memory : PC3200 512 MB - ~2000
HDD : PATA 80GB or 160 GB HDD, any brand - ~2500
Optical Drive : DVD RW (Lite On or Ben Q) - ~2500
Monitor : LCD 19", choose a high res (Acer, BenQ,…) - ~8500
Case/Power supply : Good ventilated case and 350~400W power supply - ~2000
keyboard/mouse : Generic USB keyboard and USB optical mouse - ~Free
: TOTAL - 23500

This should be closer to your budget without the OS and accesories. You can turn option C to cater to games, dagdag lang ng 7600 GS na graphics card.

One more thing, sa power supply, make sure you get 350W or above, mas maganda kung 400W.

If you're within a budget, Specs will depend on your area, try to check your competitor kung ano yung specs nila

If your going for intel
Core 2 is the best but price is still high, with your budget you can go pentium d (dual core), but power consumption is too high, talo ka sa kuryente.

So I guess P4 3.0 ka as for now. get higher ram and video card capacity.
