 What's up internet? Pagdating sa computers ang damay mga speks. Gigahertz, refresh rate, watts, VRAM. But regard this ko ano yung computer mo, whether entry level or high end, may isang spek that rules them all. The most important spek for any computer is the price. And of course here at Hardware Sugar, we're a computer shop, we want you to buy from us. But at the same time, mahirap din tapatan pa minsan yung mga prices ng ibang mga shops. I don't know how they do it. And here at the YouTube channel, we want you to get value for money even if you don't get from us. So once a month, we have a regular video na sinasurri talaga natin from last year pa all the way up to the present yung prices nung apat na pinakamalaking computer retailers in the country. We check the prices for CPUs and GPUs and that resource is for free. You can check it in the Google Sheet link down below. So even if you don't buy from us, even if you don't buy from those four other retailers, at least based on that survey, may ballpark figure ka na on how much a CPU or a GPU might cost. But before we get to hardware prices, you might want to know about software prices at itong sponsor natin may good deal sa Windows 10 and Windows 11 activation. Pinakamura, madalila o morder.

First of all, I need to admit I've been a bit delinquent. Usually, ginagawa ko once a week and kita mo naman sa data all the way back from October 15. But as we jump to last month, yung last update ko was March 31. And then the next update, the next data points we have is April 26. So that's about a month interval. But considering the difficulty of doing it once a week, I'm thinking of doing it every two weeks nalang sabahale by monthly. Because the data doesn't need to be that granular. I mean, not sure it helps anybody really because the price differences between weeks is so minute. Perhaps during peak season like the holidays, baka ay balik natin to once a week. But moving forward, we'll do it once every two weeks. And you'll notice also a big change here. This used to be 3080 data. Ngayon gilawa ko ng 4070 because the 4070 has just been released. It's roughly around the same performance as the 3080. Tapos mas mura siya. Yung last price natin for the 3080 was 41,000 basically. Tapos yung average price niya ngayon is for the 4070 is around 38,500. So quite a significant price difference for a newer card. You're also getting the LSS-3 with 4070. So we're tiring the data. We're no longer tracking the 3080. And actually it was becoming difficult to find prices for the 3080. I'm not quite sure what people have been doing. The supply of 3080 even from different brands has been quite hard to find recently. Basically, since end of February, we've only had one data point for the 3080. Only one shop out of the 4-way track was actually selling it. So we've updated this data point from 3080 to 4070. And this change is actually good news for those looking for a high-end graphics card because the 4070 is cheaper than the 3080. And by a significant margin around 8% or so. Going through the prices, actually all Nvidia cards have gone down. From last month, the 1650 is now around 300 pesos lower. The 3050 is around 500, 700 pesos or so lower. Same 600 pesos or so lower for the 3060. The 4070, as mentioned, is around 3000 pesos less than the 3080. No price difference for the 4080 and actually a price increase for the 4090. Interesting to see that on the higher end, there isn't much price variance or even the price goes up. But on the lower end for Nvidia cards, there's been a lot of movement. Surprisingly also, the 6500XT of AMD got slightly more expensive. I would have thought it would have been price drops all the way. Pero makket siya konte. The 6700XT hasn't changed, but really the data point of this is just one shop, I think. Sorry, it's two shops, but this hasn't changed for a while now. Basically, it's the same two shops and they haven't sold their inventory. The 7900XTX has actually gone up a little bit. My viewpoint has always been that AMD prices always just go down. But we're seeing actual price increases slightly even on lower end previous generation cards like the 6500XT. What usually doesn't change, though, are CPUs. And you can see that with the data, 7900XTX hasn't changed, 7600XT hasn't changed. Actually, the only thing that has changed is the price increase in the Ryzen 5 3600. Almost a 10% increase actually, so a bit surprising because it is an older CPU. Perhaps demand has picked up a little bit because the 7000 series is a little expensive. The 5000 series is actually good value for money, but for total peso amount, it's still hard to beat the prices of the 3000 series. On the Intel side, there has been no change in the three CPU prices for tracking. On the CPU front, one CPU that we haven't been tracking but it's garnering a lot of good reviews is the 7800X3D of AMD. The price is a little bit high, but not too bad. Especially for a performance CPU that is aimed towards gaming. Definitely it's cheaper than the 3900K and it's cheaper than the 7950X. So for gaming, the most expensive CPU isn't necessarily the best performing one. Final note on GPUs, if you're thinking of going with a 10 series GPU or even a 3050 or a 3060, now honestly seems like a good time to buy. The prices have been going down steadily. If you had bought early March, you would have paid around 10,000 for a 1650. Now it's down to around 9,500. We're talking about like a 500 difference here and there but that's a 5% difference right there. Same thing with the 3050 and a slightly lower price decrease for the 3060. Take note that the 3060s we've listed are all the 12GB variant. We don't list the prices for the 8GB. 12GB is a bit more expensive but for the increase in DRAM that you get, sulit na yung slightly higher price. So conclusions for this month's episode of Price Watch. Yes, now is a good time to buy for particular NVIDIA GPUs. Yung AMD medyo tumas konte. For CPUs, not much change in prices but there are new entries on the market. For example, the 7800X30. As always, you don't need to wait for the episode to drop on YouTube. This Google Sheet is accessible 24x7 and it's publicly shared. We will update it once every two weeks and you can see the shops, the price differences. So for wedge, a lot of price movement downward. Good thing for us. Wash, just a price decrease for the 1650. Joker has the 1650 and the 3050 at a lower price and then lower prices for 3050 and 3060 from Roy. And the price drops have been across the board. For wedge, there have been a lot of price drops except for the 4090s slight increase. Roy has price drops for the 3050, 3060. Joker price drops for the 1650 and 3050. And wash, price drop for the 1650. So if prices haven't gone down, they basically remain the same except for the 4090 and only from one particular store. Same story with the CPUs, either price drop or prices have remained the same. If you are thinking of buying and go ahead with it, enjoy your purchase. If you just bought and you saw that the prices now are lower than when you bought, waka makalala, enjoy pa rin. That's basically how I look at buying computer parts kasi hindi mo talaga ma-predict akit yan, bawa ba yan. So you try to do your research with resources like price watch, make the best decision possible at the time. Magbabago talaga yun. Take control of the things you can take control of and one of those is your enjoyment of the part that you bought. Thanks for watching. Nagbabenta kami ng PC components.
