HOW TO: built own pc with high spec (P2)

On this 2nd part I will give almost complete tips how to built own pc & which one you need to buy.

CPU
- Now days almost all cpu have dual core technology. We need powerful cpu to built the best performance pc. So in this case you need dual core technology too. It's up to you

Intel
1. Dual core 2.0GHz - 2.4GHz (1mb cache)
2. Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz (2mb cache)
3. Core 2 Duo 2.53GHz (3mb cache)
4. Core 2 Duo 2.66GHz (6mb cache)
5. Core 2 Duo 3.00GHz (6mb cache)
6. Core 2 Quad 2.40 X2 GHz (8mb cache)
7. Core 2 Quad 2.40 X2 GHz (8mb cache)
8. Core 2 Quad 2.66GHz (12mb cache)

More high clock value, mean more fast, and more value in cache mean more space and more faster cpu can operate.


MOTHERBOARD
- To decide which mboard you want use, check the manual book include inside the box. We need more maximum memory can put in. 2GB memory max is normal mboard in market. So try find mboard can put 4gb max with PC5300 or higher. Have a PCI-E slot, FSB 1600. Don't forget about north & south bridge coz may be one day you want modify put a cooler or something. So to do that need more space near the chipset.


MEMORY
- If you mboard support PC6400, so you can buy memory DDR2 PC6400. I suggest you use minimum 2gb. I you have good budget, put max in you system >>:)


HDD
- Size doesn't matter but type of connection and speed most important. Use HDD with SATA connection type for best performance and 7200RPM speed.


Display Card
- For best result, put PCI-E display card on your system. For extra high performance, use minimum 512mb and 128bit. Thats the minimum so if you have good budget, buy 1GB with 256bit PCI-E. Brand or what chipset doesn't matter but some people said, NVIDIA chipset is better for PCI-E type.

tips: before this display card use AGP 2X, 4X & 8X. PCI-E use 16X thats why PCI-E is better

HOW TO: built own pc with high spec (P1)

All peoples want the best performance pc but doesn't know how to combine all hardware. From this thread I will give some tips how to do it. We have a list of hardwares need to combine in 1 complete computer system.

To have "the best" result, we need choose the correct combination if not you will think you have the best one but you don't know actually it is not. This is list of hardwares we need to if want assemble 1 unit pc and list number 1, 2, 3, 4 & 9 in high priority.

1. CPU
2. Motherboard
3. Memory
4. HDD
5. FDD
6. CDROM
7. Casing
8. Speaker / sound card
9. Display card
10. Monitor

Why need best performance pc? I don't know but some people saids for play a game, some said for fun so it's up to you what you want give a reason to.

tips: AMD best for game but cache only 1mb. By the way, Intel have 2mb, 3mb, 6mb, 8mb & 12mb. So up to you, you think you have good enough pc? Try this software and see your pc in world ranking Prime Benchmark

HOW TO: know when my computer need service

Today I will teach when we need service our computers. It's all about hardware. If your computer never service, it's ok but your computer will have short life compare with others and may be not working properly without notice. So lets we see when should we service our computers.

1. Cooler fan make too much noisy compare with others same system.
--> Open computer casing and take a look at heatsink & cooler fan. There must be have a lot of dust. Take out the heatsink, take off fan from cooler. Brush the fan, clean heatsink with water and after that keep heatsink dry before put back with fan. Clean up top of CPU and put a little bit cooler paste before join it back with heatsink & cooler fan.

2. Power supply fan make sound noisy.
--> There is nothing much we can do with it. It's is because security reason. So what we can do just brush at hole front and back of power supply. I believe a lot of dust stick out there.

3. Motherboard, HDD temperature so high. More than 50°C beyond normal.
--> Take off all memory, display card and any PCI card attach with motherboard. Clean up from dust with brush. Also brush from dust your motherboard and HDD.

4. CPU temperature so high 55°C and above.
--> Open computer casing and take a look at heatsink & cooler fan. There must be have a lot of dust. Take out the heatsink, take off fan from cooler. Brush the fan, clean heatsink with water and after that keep heatsink dry before put back with fan. Clean up top of CPU and put a little bit cooler paste before join it back with heatsink & cooler fan.

5. Computer shutdown suddenly after use in 5 to 10 minutes or more.
--> Open computer casing and take a look at heatsink & cooler fan. There must be have a lot of dust. Take out the heatsink, take off fan from cooler. Brush the fan, clean heatsink with water and after that keep heatsink dry before put back with fan. Clean up top of CPU and put a little bit cooler paste before join it back with heatsink & cooler fan. Check all capasitors near CPU and if you see one or more capasitors near CPU the electrolyte come out or top of capasitor gonna big (should be flat), soon you will need new mnotherboard >>:)

tips: How to know your system temperature? Switch on your system and press DEL button (some of motherboard have different way to go to BIOS setting) and find hardware monitor (some of motherboard using different name). From there you can see your motherboard & CPU temperature. Or else you can use a software example Everest Ultimate Portable
