The AMD Ryzen market is very small in Nepal. It is so small that it is very hard to find in the Nepali market. If you want to buy AMD setup at a good cost, we have only found some stores. They sell a few numbers of entry, mid and high-end chips. 10 years ago, there was a small market of low-end AMD processors. However, they lost it in the way, but they are back again. If Ryzen can take a good market share in Nepal, it can definitely change the computer market by making it cheaper and affordable. Currently, this is the best entry-level setup on the Ryzen platform.

Advice and recommendations

Nepali market now has all options of boards for 10th gen whiskey lake, 9th gen, and 8th gen Coffee Lake CPU. You can pair budget i3 9100F with an H310 board and install a good GTX 1050Ti or GTX 1650 and get a great gaming experience at 1080p. The Core i3 9100F and 10100F are better than both Core i5 7400 and i3 8100. Users who want long run and better value should buy i5 10400F paired with a B460 board and install a GPU like  GTX 1660 Ti 6GB to have an ultimate experience. The i5 9400 and i5 10400 performs better than Core i7 7700 and 7700k. So recommend our readers to buy a new-generation processor as far as possible.

As far as possible, buy the latest 10th generation F-series CPU with “F” suffix. But if you don’t want an external GPU, just buy a normal 10th, 9th, or 8th gen processor. If you are using a computer for the first time and learning, then go with the first PC. People with good experience should choose the second one, and the third PC is for users who need gaming and closed by budget. The final high-end computer is for top-level, most demanding users. Above mentioned set for different types of users. This is our recommendation for normal people who want little multimedia, gaming, good performance, and future-proofing.

Different Platforms and value proposition

Comparing Intel and AMD was never better like it is today. Due to the tough market competition, we can finally now buy better computers. Before 2017 we were stuck on 4 cores in the mainstream for 10 years. Nowadays, we have 6 cores in mainstream, 4 cores in entry-level and 8 cores in the high end. Intel now sells Core processors as a normal consumer product, and they sell Core Extreme such as i9 10980XE under the HEDT lineup and Xeon as a workstation chip. Thanks to AMD Ryzen, we are getting the right products. But due to some reasons, their presence in the Nepali market is less. This is due to their reputation in the past with their older processors.

In the market, we can find both Intel and AMD platforms for all levels of computing. The pricing for both processors and platforms are almost the same. There is a good competition to see. For example, Ryzen 3 3200G gives a good challenge to Core i3 9100 and this is good for consumers. Also, if we see in the HEDT line, Ryzen 3700X gives 8 core and 16 threads at a cheaper price compared to top Core i9 from Intel. Many of experts find Intel processors great in gaming, but for multi-threaded work demands and overall platform price, AMD is winning. Motherboards are also cheaper for the Ryzen system, which in turn makes them a much better choice.

PC Recommendation for Students

People study different subjects, so their need is also different. If any of you were to buy a desktop set for a student in school or high school level we suggest you buy a computer with at-least new Pentium Gold processors such as G5500 or a 9th generation Core i3. We recommend staying away from 7th gen Intel chips and only recommend 8th or 9th gen chips. This will give plenty of power and upgrade options in the future, and it can be a good gaming system as well.

4 GB RAM is plenty for any normal student, and they can use any size of hard disk as they need. For Engineering students in a tight budget, we suggest Core i3 10100 or Core i5 10400F if possible. As the students need good power for software like AutoCAD, ETABS, SolidWorks, ANSYS, etc, we recommend at least 8 GB RAM. A good graphics card can help in 3D and graphics related work. Applications like AutoCAD, 3ds Max and Maya actually require Nvidia Quadro GPU. But you can work with a good normal GTX graphics card like GTX 1650.

In our tests, we found that SSD made significant speed improvements in applications like AutoCAD while opening and running. Therefore we also suggest getting an SSD as a boot drive and to install the software. 256 GB is the sweet spot, but we don’t recommend anything below 128 GB.

Conclusion

A computer is a basic need and it makes our life much easier. In our office, we have fixed many computers and built many as well. In this, we have learned a few things which we want to tell you. Always buy processor and motherboard thinking of the upgrade you may or can do in the future. Also, think of the salvage value because parts like processors don’t go bad easily and they can be sold. Try to have the latest edition because they always have benefits in the computer world.

We highly recommend getting an SSD of at least 128 GB because SSD makes a huge improvement in speed. They should be used for installing Windows and software. Keep backup of your files and regularly update your Windows plus antivirus software. Use power backup solutions such as Inverter or UPS to protect your hardware and files. Always invest in a high-quality power supply because it is the most crucial part of any computer. Anyways you can enjoy the smooth performance with these PC. Our final advice to everyone is, only invest in hardware that you need and buy a capable system with the help of our list of desktop computer price in Nepal.
