 Marami sa atin pagbago mag-build nag-research talaga ano yung best parts for their build, for their use case, ano yung best value na parts. And a lot of our videos deal with that. Paano ka pumili ng parts para bagay sa budget and sa kailangan mo? Pero research never ends. Kahit nabili mo na build mo, there's still some work to be done to ensure that you're getting the best value out of it. There are two schools of thought for this. Either future proof or upgrade pass. Ano ba yung pagkaiba na lang and what to we recommend for your computer? Pag-usapan natin, pero bago noon kako usapin ka ng sponsor natin. Pag-usain yung kailangan ng windows. Pero saan ko hukuwan ng digit windows? Daming options, daming prices. Aka nito. Gudi na lang, ay cdkeyovers.go. Wadalilang akong order. Search for no software you need. Add to cart. Dahan ka sa payment options nila. Wala pang 5 minutes. Finished. May legit, working cdkey ka na para sa windows mo. Gamitan lang awing kod para makakuhapan ng discounts. Kaya kung nagahalap ka ng legit, mura at original software. Check out cdkeyovers.com Yung future proofing na sa pangalan. For example, waterproofing. Whatever is waterproof, hindi na pektuhan or hindi tumatalab yung tubig sa kanya. Ganon din daw dapat yung future proofing. You are secure against the future. So yung mga rig na future proof, good sila for 5 years, 6 years. And tumisan na rinilig mo tong term na to sa mga builders, sa mga nag-advice ng builders. But personally, I think it's kind of baloney. It's very hard to future proof properly. I mean yes, kung basic naman yung setup, pang office lang, future proof talaga yun. But at decent specs, that will be good for even 10 years kasi hindi naman nagbabago yung word processing, surfing the web, yung browsers. The system requirements for those things are generally stable over a very long time. But the idea that you can take performance or games and say na minimum good tong computer na to for 5 years, medyo alanganin yun. Number one kasi paiba-iba tayo what you find acceptable, I might not find acceptable and vice versa. Sobrang subjective nung future proof, subjective on the part of the user, as well as for developers. Hindi naman natin alam anong lalabas na bago software and anong requirements niya. Hindi rin natin alam anong lalabas ng mga hardware brands and how their innovations will impact software development. So yung future proofing niyan sounds good as a marketing term, but as a practical way to build computers, it really doesn't mean a lot. Upgrade path assumes from the get go that you will need to spend something in the long run to keep your system competitive. This is a more realistic way of looking at things. Sa future proofing kasi, yung gusto mga mangyare, mga bayad ka na upfront, tas good na yung system o for 5 to 6 years. Sa upgrade path, sa simula palang alam mo na na magagastos ka somewhere down the line, may papalitan ka, may papasok ka na bago, to keep your system up to date, para kaya niya yung mga bagong programs, na requirements nung bagong software. Sa upgrade path, you're usually not getting the latest and the greatest, but you're putting yourself in a position to get the best value for your parts down the line. So yung upgrade path, parang chest yan, you're supposed to be thinking 4 steps ahead all the time. Kung ito yung binili ko na movo ngayon, ane yung options ko sa kinabukasan para mapalitan yung CPU, yung RAM? Kailangan ko ba palitan pa yung GPU? Yung key sa upgrade path is thinking ahead. Grade path begins with choosing the right motherboard as the motherboard may domino effect yan kung anong compatible na CPU and RAM. Yung mahalaga, kailangan same sakit yung CPU and yung motherboard. We talk about this a little bit in our Biblika 2022 video. Kung Biblika nung computer, anong kailangan mo malaman para di masayong pera mo. Magmugay tayo nung halimbawa. Let's say bumalika nung Ryzen 5 to 600. That's a socket AM4 CPU, so socket AM4 rin yung motherboard. Ngayon, kakalabas lang ng bagong Ryzen 7000 series. Hyped na hype yung mga tao gusto mo na mag-upgrade. Problema, kung mag-upgrade ka from Ryzen 2000 to 7000, tatlong components kailangan mo palitan. Yung CPU, yung motherboard and yung RAM, since DDR5 na yung RAM nung Ryzen 7000 and DDR4 lang yung RAM mo sa Ryzen 2000 series. Hindi compatible yung DDR4 kaka DDR5. Hindi masyado pinagisipan yung upgrade path na to, because having to replace three things and three main components, medyo parang bumulika na nung bagong computer nun. Anong magandang halimbawa ng upgrade path? Same example, bumulika nung Ryzen 2000 series, tapos from the get go, yung plano mo is to upgrade after two generations. Technically speaking, that's the Ryzen 4000 series, pero lumabas lang yung for OEMs. Medyo mahirap makahanap in the direct to consumer market. So yung actual na two generations above the Ryzen 2000 is Ryzen 5000. So, upgrade mo yung Ryzen 2000 rig mo to Ryzen 5000. Anin kailangan mo yung palitan? Isang component lang at sana bilin mo from hardware sugar, just the CPU. And you need to upgrade just the CPU, kasi compatible palahat nung ibang components mo dun sa bagong CPU. Ryzen 5000 is socket AM4, socket AM4 na rin yung existing motherboard mo, and yung RAM mo with the Ryzen 2000 series is DDR4. Yung kailangan mo rin na RAM, so Ryzen 5000 series is also DDR4. So very clear in this example, dun sa hindi pinag-isipan na upgrade path, tatlong components kailang mo palitan para mag-upgrade sa component na target mo. Pero sa upgrade path na pinag-isipan isang component lang. Bottom line, having a good upgrade path, having a plan in mind saves you money. Mas madali pag-isipan yung upgrade path or AMD systems, because historically yung AMD, sinosupport niyo yung same socket over multiple generations of CPUs. Ryzen 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, lahat yung socket AM4, and ina-announce nila in advance. Itong socket na to, yung minimum na sinosupport namin for the next four years for example. Pagsigurado ka na sa socket, mas madali yung planuhin yung next upgrades mo. It's not so easy with Intel na may history of changing sockets per generation. Although, medyo nagbabago na yun with the latest Intel 12 and 13th Gens. For these two most recent generations, socket LGA1700, same socket yung gamit ni Intel for both of those generations. Pero, wala na silang announcement na isosupport yung same socket na yun after that. They might, they might not. Yun yung problema sa Intel. Medyo KG sila. And yun nga, historically hindi sila mahiling mag-support ng same socket over multiple generations. Regardless of which brand you settle on, yun nga yung mahalaga may planuh ka. For example, Descent mid-range CPU and planuh mo after 2 years mag-upgrade ka to an Intel 13th Gen 13700. A much faster CPU and that's still possible with just one upgrade kasi same socket nga sila. And you also need to take into consideration when upgrading your CPU cooler. Paminsan kung nagbabago yung socket, kailangan mo rin palitan yung CPU cooler and that's another factor that you need to take in for upgrade path. Although with the latest generation ngayon, backward compatible pa naman sila. Yung socket AM4 coolers compatible pa naman sa socket AM5 and the LGA1700 coolers are compatible with the previous Intel generations. Although sometimes you do need to get a special bracket from the manufacturer or the brand of your CPU cooler. So hindi all the time palitan yung CPU cooler but again, something that you need to keep in mind. Moving on to other components. For GPUs, actually hindi siya ganoon ka touch move yung upgrade path. That's because basa may PCIe slot basically yung computer mo, gagana naman yung GPU. Yes, you might lose some speed if for example PCIe Gen 4 yung GPU, tapos PCIe Gen 3 slot yung motherboard. But while the hardware supports faster PCIe speeds 4 and 5 ngayon, the actual performance gains are not that significant yet. So price to performance it still makes a lot more sense just to get a faster GPU and put it into a system even though lower PCIe slot yung motherboard. For upgrades, halbal mo talagay yung bank for the buck and if you compare the price of getting one GPU versus getting one GPU na PCIe 5 versus one motherboard na PCIe 5 din sobrang mahal dun, may cascade effect if you change the motherboard. So you don't really need to worry about the motherboard compatibility with a GPU upgrade. But what you should be thinking about is PSU capacity. Paminsan kasi kung ibilit tayo yung computers inisip natin, well itong rig na to kailang ko lang yung 650W and then 2-3 years down the line bibilit ka yung mas beefy mas malakas na GPU needs a lot more energy to fuel that beefiness tas dun ka palang bibilit nung PSU with higher wattage 750W, 850W para masulit, we do recommend getting a higher PSU upfront yung may headroom or may allowance na not just for the needs of your existing rig pero para sa needs mo na rin kung mag-upgrade ka. So if you think 550W is okay you might want to get 650W ngayon palang. If you think 650W is okay for your current rig you might want to get 750W ngayon palang. And this is actually a bit of future proofing. So you're thinking ahead and you want your current specs to be in line with what you'll buy in the future. A bit of future proofing there. So naging mix and match tayo from the 2 upgrade paths. Future proofing with an upgrade path in mind. Mas mahal siya up front but really getting a decent PSU and getting a headroom and allowance is something that you benefit from right away. Hindi sa kinabukasan mo mararandaman yung headroom or yung allowance ng PSU it's really worth it for peace of mind and also in general you never know when some components might feed more power. Upgrade path also affects storage and you might want to think ahead ilang drives ba kailangan mo? There are a limited number of SATA ports on a motherboard or M.2 slots. It's easy to think na oh madalila naman magdagdag ng storage. It's true madalila nang magdagdag but especially if you're getting a budget level computer mas konte yung available na SATA ports for SATA storage mas konte din yung M.2 slots na available. So be aware and plan ahead just how many drives you'll be putting into your computer or corresponding slots ba na available for that extra storage. Sain lang pera mo kung bamila ka ng bagong hard drive or SSD tapos puno na pala yung motherboard. May remedyo naman yan, there are external exclosures for hard drives or SSDs but the transfer speed is usually slower so you really want those things plug directly into your motherboard. Yung mahalaga sa upgrade path is actually walking the path. Yung main destination in mind ka na what everything you do now is in preparation for that destination. Whenever you buy a new part check to make sure first that it's part of the plan na compatible siya with your existing parts. Basically have a plan and stick to that plan. Mas makakatipin ka talaga sa upgrades kung hindi bara-bara yung pagbili mo. If you already have set goals in place ngayon palang on how your rig will change. Thanks for watching.
