In the USA that would be a bad price, but I assume that prices in the Philippines are absolutely horrible, so that's probably the best you can get. (and I assume these are used parts)

It's a very balanced build and will serve you well for many years.

 

Out of curiosity, how much does a Ryzen 3100 cost in the Philippines?

yes. usa would definately get better prices.

in this build. everything is brand new except the processor, motherboard, and graphics card.

here is a pricelist in one of the biggest computer shops here int he Philippines. to convert to USD. just divide the price by 50.

yes prices here are on the high side

Hmm... Prices for the Ryzen CPU seem actually okay. (similar to the USA)

Ryzen 3200G only costs 113USD, and is probably better than the 8400.

 

Anyway, the build is good and it will be good for a while.

yes. i was thinking of a ryzen 3200g. but it was only 4 cores. while the i5-8400 is 6 cores.

Ah yes I forgot the 8400 is 6-core. In that case it is probably better than 3200G. (I was thinking it was 4-core for some reason)
