Advice and recommendations

Nepali market has now all options of boards for 8th Gen Coffee lake CPU. You can pair budget i3 8100 with a H310 board and install a good GTX 1050 or 1050 Ti and get great gaming experience at 1080p. The Core i3 8100 is better than both Core i5 7400 and i5 7500. Users who want long run and better value should buy i5 8400 paired with B360 board and install GPU like  GTX 1060 6GB to have ultimate experience. The i5 8400 compares very much with i7 7700 and 7700k so recommend our readers to buy new generation processor as far as possible.

If you are using computer for first time and learning then go with the first PC. People with good experience should choose the second one and third PC is for users who need gaming and and closed by budget. Final high end computer is for top level most demanding users. Above mentioned set for 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. Because before 2017 we were stuck on 4 cores in mainstream since 10 years. Nowadays we have 6 cores in mainstream, 4 cores in entry level and 8 cores in high end. Intel sells Core processor as normal consumer product then they sell Core Extreme such as i9 7980XE under HEDT lineup and Xeon as workstation chip. Thanks to AMD Ryzen but due to some reasons, their presence in Nepali market is less. This is due to their reputation in past with their older processors.

In market we can find Intel platform for all level of computing and AMD sparsely. Currently the price of Intel processors are sky high and Ryzen is filling that gap. For example, Ryzen 3 1200 gives great value instead of buying a Core i3 8100. Also if we see in HEDT line, Ryzen 2700 gives 8 core and 16 threads at far cheaper value compared to Core i9 from Intel. Many of us 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 Ryzen system which in turn make them more 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 to buy a computer with at-least new Pentium Gold processor such as G5500 or a 8th generation Core i3. 7th Generation is also good but at almost same price 8th gen is providing double power. This will give plenty of upgrading option at future and it can be good gaming system as well.

4 GB RAM is plenty for any student and they can use any any size of hard disk as they need. For Engineering students at budget we suggest Core i3 8100 or Core i5 8400 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 and Maya actually requires nVidia Quadro GPU. In our tests we found that SSD made significant speed improvement in applications like AutoCAD while opening and running, so we also suggest getting an SSD as boot drive and to install software. 256 GB is the sweet spot but we don’t recommend anything below 128 GB.

Conclusion

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

We highly recommend getting SSD of at least 128 GB because SSD makes 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 Inveter or UPS to protect your hardware and files. Ala ways invest in high quality power supply because it is the most crucial part of any computer. Any ways you can enjoy smooth performance with these PC. Our final advice to everyone is, only invest on hardware that you need.
