Just an additional info on tip No. 36. You shouldn't over spend on power supplies but you shouldn't also cheap out on it as well. There are many PSUs out there built with low quality materials and often lack safety measures like Over Current Protections. To further expand on the original tip, only get a good quality power supply from reputable brands and are also enough to power your other components adequately. There are also websites that calculate your theoretical amount of power draw with your selected components, which give you an idea on how big of a power supply you will need.

I was surprised they didn't mention the "metal identifier" for PSU. None/Bronze/Silver/Gold/Platinum/Titanium are power efficiency indicators. The higher the indicator, the more efficient it is. None being the worst and Titanium being the best. The following 3 numbers are the efficiency at 20%/50%/100% loads: None = 80/80/80% efficiency. Bronze = 82/85/82% efficiency. Silver = 85/88/85% efficiency. Gold = 87/90/87% efficiency. Platinum = 90/92/89% efficiency. Titanium = 92/94/90% efficiency. Normally, you pay more for a higher rating but you also waste less electricity. Things to consider: How often you use your PC. How long it stays on. (Mine is rarely turned off.) How much power the machine draws normally (small builds vs big builds, running the cpu/gpu under heavy load, etc). The price of electricity where you live.

Tip very much needed

51. If you're on AMD AM4 build and want to swap the stock wraith cooler with an aftermarket solution, if the cooler seems stuck to your CPU when you're removing it, DON'T yank it with force. Instead, twist it before gently prying it open. Trust me, I had my 1 day old 5600X ripped from the CPU socket breaking one pin from the CPU and bent several others, also the sleep function is messed up on my motherboard since.

I build computers for a living and this video covers pretty much all the shortfalls beginners (and even some advanced users) tend to make. My biggest piece of advice is to route all cables to the nearest passthrough in the case then pull them tight from the back and zip tie down. You'd be surprised how many customer-built PCs I see where they just A>B the cables or leave them loose when the rest of the system has hundreds spent on aesthetics (RGB, etc)

shouldnt you put the gpu when you install the motherboard on the pc case?

Great video, very useful. I recently got a pre-built for about $1100 or something, was considering buying parts and building it myself but found I was in over my head wondering what was what and unsure if certain things were compatible or not since I didn't know about the parts picker site at the time. Previous PC was an i5 4460 with no graphics card. Originally I was thinking of the 5600x built around minimum cost stuff with a decent-ish gpu, then I found out about the shortages so went with the pre-built instead. This answered a lot of 'beginner' type questions I had been wondering about since buying it, mainly as what is 'just-enough' vs total overkill.

I would add (from personal experience on past builds) that for bigger builds you'll probably get an advantage on having a positive pressure (slightly more intakes than outtakes) inside the case. This on the long run will get less dust stuck on the components.

Generally FPS games should have an option like 'raw mouse input' that should bypass windows acceleration anyway. For me terrible hands, mouse acceleration makes using a computer outside of games (or in games that are fully moused controlled like strategy and puzzle games) way more tolerable. Plus the inability to play FPS games with mouse acceleration well is oversold. There's even software out there to set custom acceleration curves to try and make acceleration work better for games. After all, you don't want to have to have a tradeoff between being able to spin round on a time and being able to aim finely at someone's head.

Tip 51: If you have multiple m.2 Slots on your motherboard, check if they share pci-E lanes with your cpu, they should not cut the connection of your gpu to the cpu in half! Tip 52: If you plan on Overclocking, look for a mainboard with Bios Flashback as it can often get corrupted and updating for a new cpu generation will be possible even without a cpu installed. Tip 53: If you want RGB in your case, check if your motherboard has enough connectors and even the right ones. There are 5V and 12V RGB components out there. Tip 54: Before installing your CPU look for bent pins in the motherboard socket (intel) or on the underside of the CPU (AMD) handle these parts extremely careful! Tip 55: When choosing a motherboard for your processor planning to overclock, watch out for the CPU Phase count on the motherboard or watch a buildzoid PCB breakdown. Tip 56: When planning for a high end Build like 5900x + 3080 even if the power consumption is listed as 300W+150W I would still recommend a 750W PSU at least because of power spikes. Tip 57: If you plan on streaming and want to know more about it, visit the KZread Channel EposVox for the best coverage. Tip 58: Don't forget to put in the Input/Output Cover delivered with your motherboard! Best to put it in it's place at in the beginning of your build as you can't put it in from behind ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Tip 59: When choosing your monitor, best practice is to get one with a VA / IPS Panel and not TN. Also get at least a 100Hz panel. Tip 60: While Overclocking, learn to accept your results even if they can't 100% compare to others online, everyone only posts their absolut best results that often aren't even stable.

Nice. I had my computer ready for a month waiting for a CPU and GPU due to current shortage. A problem that I have, is that I swap parts frequently, because I might not like how something fits or maybe I got certain part instead of the one I wanted. For example, on my previous build, I re-did the loop like 4 times because I wanted to improve aesthetics and performance. On my current build, using the NR200, I did not like that the GPU is pushed down a bit by the cables of the silverstone sfx-l 800 watts, and the cables are very stiff so it is hard to avoid it. At the end, I swapped it for the Corsair SF750. Something else is cooling, I initially used the NH-U9S, but performance is poor so I am swapping it to a NH-C14S. Next change might be liquid cooling, but my gpu does not have a waterblock from any vendor yet, which made me regret not going with the reference card.

I disagree with you on “B550 gives the same overclocking feature to X series”. It’s worth it to have a better motherboard, especially when you have a decent CPU. A better motherboard usually has more VRMs and heatsink. It also provides more voltage settings and stability settings like LLC. The price of motherboard should be around half of the price of your CPU.

Better motherboards give way less performance for money. Unless it's a specialist work machine, it's incredibly unlikely to be a bottleneck. I'm not even considering upgrading my $50 Mobo from 5 years ago because while PCIe 4 is out now, it only offers marginal performance with this gen of GPUs in niche cases (double bandwidth means nothing if you don't have double the packets to send), and the 32gb 3200mhz of RAM is supports is massive overkill for gaming.

@@skilletborne 3200MHz is shit for 3A games imo. Whether it’s enough really depends on what game you play. For games like League or Valorant… It’s enough though.

Awesome video. Simple blunt and to the point.👍

This was quality.👌 To the point, and quite gorgeous!

if you press down really hard on the cpu when its in its socket you'll get increased frames

when you learn more in a 10 minute video compared to a playlist by linus 😂

Per amount of time it's true, but you can't get the same amount of details in such a condensed video.

This was brilliant 👍 well done

Thanks you for all the info because iam new to all of this love the video and the info keep up the good work. take good care of yourself and your love one stay safe

I completely agree with everything said except for the first one. Having the right amount of thermal paste is very important and should not be minimized. Use the spreader method so that you know for sure that the entire cpu is covered.

It's not because of mining. It's because parts are scarce. All of the materials for making graphics cards is going toward other bullshit. Like 1TB sticks of DDR5, electric cars or whatever. They all use the same stuff, and there's a limited amount. And right now we're at a point where we're scraping the bottom of the barrel. Mostly because covid, which is also bullshit. The world didn't stop when people were bleeding out of their eyes, but someone's got a cough and the whole world stops.

More legit useful tips in 1/100th the time than most "big" "techtuber" channels. Thanks 👌

This video helped me troubleshoot a build that wouldn't post to BIOS that I was absolutely stumped on, thank you kindly.
