Building My First Gaming PC with No Experience… (High-Budget) 

PC: "I'm a $4000 PC what is my purpose?" "You play Fortnite." PC: "Oh my God."

Well this was a journey... Stick around til the VERY end to see what RGB aesthetic I went with! And subscribe!

Those are some great specs. Congratulations. I built my first PC about 2 years ago and it's time to upgrade. Still deciding if I should just swap out the cpu & graphics card or build another from scratch. It really isn't that difficult, just research and follow build guides.

This was a really good video. It gave the feeling of an average guy learning and having a hard time. The only problems I had with my first PC was putting the ram in the wrong place and connecting the display port to my motherboard instead of my GPU.

Some tips for next time: Three must read manuals: Your cases’, your motherboard’s and your AIO cooler’s. Also, very important: Cable management starts the moment you do, not at the very end. Plan out how you’re gonna want to run all cables before putting your motherboard in.

My introduction to PC building was less of a complete build and more of a modification. Replacing ram on a HP Pavillion taught me a lot about the basic components of a PC! :)

Build looks sick icl 🔥

I made a lot of mistakes making my first rig (in terms of buying parts) and I learned a lot from it lol. But this is something else for a first build a 4k budget is literally four times what I had lol but I hope your enjoy your build man it looks great!

Nice Carter!! Congrats on building your first PC! I'm prepping up my list for my 2nd build!

Bros first “very bad” pc is better than mine rn lmao

Actually Intel uses LGA so the pins are in motherboard while amd has pins on the back except for the AM5 which is also LGA. But it's still ok! Congrats Carter you built your pc!

For a 4090 I would have recommended a 1500w titanium power supply

2:00 bro just named a PC better than mine and average according to Steam Hardware Survey and wrote "Very Bad" in bold red

0:58 "Let's see if I can manage to mess it up" 💀💀

Damn his power supply costs more than my whole setup...

Thank god he pulled the tape.

W PC Carter looks sick now that it’s fully built! Can’t wait for the next vid! ❤🔥

CONGRATS on building your PC!

for whoever wants to know, the first and third slot is where there sticks on fam to go(for best performance)

The fact that your graphics card costs more than my hole pc is kinda crazy

i play on school Chromebook

rip to his 13th gen i9 (13 and 14th gen intel cpus that are i7 and i9 mainly are randomly crashing)

Hey carter I was wondering if how much I can get your old gaming pc (the mid one) because I never had one and I’m not building one so how much are you looking

Seeing people have so much fun makes me so goddamn jealous

You called my old pc bad. Let’s hope the rest of the video makes me happier

He needs the thread ripper pro

congrats bro i'm still using my old pc i built in 2014 💀

imagine he didn't know there was a switch at the back and he turned it on and nothing happens and he just sitting there

W setup! Absolutely killed it for your first build. I recently did an all-black PC build as well on my channel and it turned out well but yours is definitely on another level. Keep up the great content man :)

dang that pc is stunning

Good job on your first build man! I'm just starting to get into the world of PC building and currently in the process of saving to build my own, and seeing you get confused about all the cables is so relatable! LIKE WHERE THE HELL DO ALL OF THEM GO Anyways good job once again, it looks awesome!

This makes me want to build my own PC. That is a huge upgrade from my PS4. My PS4 starts to be incredibly loud and even shaking as I turn it on

This pc looks awesome and I recently built my own pc a month ago and my budget was 10x less than yours at 450$ But it works well getting 120 fps In real games as well which is a big step up from a 40 fps ps4

Holy!!!! Go ahead and treat yourself 😮 Awesome job doing the work yourself. It took me a while to build mine as well. You got some pretty awesome specs, that 4090 is 🔥🔥

Please, for the love of the tech gods, put that HDD on the 3.5 inch bay and not hanging like a 2.5 inch SATA SSD, PLEASE

Ty for the pc build it was budget friendly

my fist pc took half your time 💀

shouldve gone with a titanium psu with those parts and a high budget

Nice build :) 🎉. Hope sometime i will be able to build my computer too

Intel & Nvidia

Great video, straight to the point without a bunch of unless information, the only downside is the camera quality, just a little inconsistent. Overall great video!!!

Bro spent $4K for a pc to play fortnite

Bro made great progress Damm first ever pc with 4090☠️☠️☠️

he said he got the best pc money can buy. Improvements: Motherboard: Rog maximus apex GPU: Rog strix rtx4090 CPU: Intel core i9 14900k RAM: G-skill trident 7200 ghz Cooler: heatkiller 4 pro And on the radiator unscrew the fans, flip them and then put them back in the wrong way, it cools your radiator and your pc at the same time

good job! i’m scared to build one

"the best gaming pc money can buy" BRO NAHH YOU'VE LIT JUST GOT INTO THE RABBIT HOLD

I had not built a system in 14 years until last February, about a $900.00 build. Well, it has been perfect, I am using it now and everyday. Just take it slow and steady.

This was fun to watch and so painful at the same time. Super happy you got it working but 10 hours.... 🤔

ngl the white at the end is so fucking cool

Spends $4K but cheaps out and buys an hdd instead of an ssd LOL.

this video thumbnail and title are basically the exact same as henry vo's

Bro you literally stole the title

Great vid this has given me the confidence to build a PC to

let me explain the pc parts for you. CPU: It processes things and explains to the pc what to do, so its kinda like the brain of the pc. RAM: its like Short-term memory in humans, so its sorta like the brain of the pc. SSD: long term memory, it helps store information and not forget it, like a brain would. GPU: It processes what the pc's eyes are seeing to allow you to see a display, so its like the brain of the pc. Conclusion: Every part functions like the brain.

this inspired me to start making money to buy a pc

Congrats man

Bro called his 2nd pc mid 💀but still i feel happy that you made this setup and succeeding on building it

Bro you deserve 1m subs

big fan bro plz😢😢

bro a 4090 for a 1080p monitor is insane

Bro bought an insanely expensive pc but his pc build cam is like 360p resolution 💀 Loved the video tho

0:51 bro gave the drop on himself💀

0:16 when he said ruin i would be like: i could ruin your bank account

Its hilarious seeing first time builders scared about the cpu even tho its incredibly hard to mess it up 🤣🤣🤣

2:00 ''very bad'' this hurt me very much because i have a 1060 and the cpu is literally better than my current one

What sucks is you ordered the 13900k before the 7800x3D was released... its still almost the best! Since you making videos its actually the best, I am silly.

Good job I'm also going to build my own PC from scratch, so as soon as I buy everything I need to build it, then I would start building it

good job buddy well done

Good video I subbed!

The only "hard part" to assemble in this pc is the cooling. But hey, congrats for the pc

I feel like you should switch the fans because it is a good pc with amazing specs and looks but the fans ruin it

So much money wasted just for fortnite and a bit of editing. Only reason to get something like this is for professional high end video editors doing 3d work.

bro built a rig that can destroy asteroids with the mere number of FPS, and i like to imagine he plays plant vs zombies on it

cant wait to get mine

for the pc cables I recommend getting some nice custom cables from lian li if your pc case was white but in this case I'd recommend some nice braided cables from cablemod in black for a cleaner minimal look, gpu cable, 24pin cable, and 8 pin+4 pin cpu power cable on the top left ===================================================================================================== (also the wire for cpu on top left is sticking out you can put it through the hole for it that's right over the port)

With those specs, maybe take off performance and use the benefit of direct x 12 and you'll see real FPS boosts since your GPU can handle a lot of the power now

nice! Now build me one!

We all need a friend who can do this 5:40

I swear this is the pc everyone has in arena

me chilling with my dell optiplex

The whole comment section is hate comments give this man some respect

i managed to build a 1000 dollar gaming rig (brand new and used parts). I got a ryzen 5 5600 and rx 6800xt. A 32 gb of dual channel ram. A respectable FSP hydro g 750W gold rated psu. Asus tuf b450m plus ii. 6 arctic p12 argb fans. darkflash dlm21 mesh case. darkflash dx240 AIO (replaced stock fans with arctic). A couple of 1 tb harddrive and SSD. both 2.5. I am playing on a 1440p ultra wide monitor, so the CPU and GPU combo is great. I can play fortnite epic settings at 100 fps (max nanite and lumen), and most games at 60+ fps with some RT on. I mainly play rdr2, and I can reach a 100 frames at max. I built this system for the past month, and I cant be happier with what I built for the price. Basically twice the power of a ps5, with twice the price. And its a PC! I can do anything I want with it. Even emulation ;) (TOTK 60 fps RT). Never had a BSOD or sudden crashes, which I was surprised, considering my gaming laptop does that a lot. This build is a monster for its price. It took me months of planning and finding parts that are in good condition. I got the rx 6800 xt secondhand for a little under 400 dollars. I do not plan to upgrade anytime soon, but will upgrade my CPU, motherboard, and an nvme (for PCIE 4.0). and some aesthetic stuff probably around Christmas this year until early next year. Sidenote: I undervolted my GPU to reduce electricity bill at the same performance. 1030 mV at stock speeds. Max vram speed. Stable as hell with an average of 70 W power reduction. CPU idle temps hover around 35 to 40 deg C and 58 deg C at full load. GPU sits around 70 to 80 at full. Noise level is silent and I cant hear it even when playing in speakers.

Totally not overkill

the logo on the aio not being straight gives me ocd

I see a liquid cooling thing, IM OUTTA HERE!

I just got my second PC off of FB Marketplace for around $470 with an RX 5700XT and a Ryzen 7 3700x. I plan to upgrade but I think I got a pretty good deal

The second I saw his face I knew he was gonna fuck up... Only Canadians can built PCs Americans buy pre-builts😂😂😂

bro built a pc with 4090 for a 1080p monitor 💀

I recently built a pc and I used TechSources pc guide too and it was really helpful. Cool PC btw

bro what about thermal paste

Does people who buy 4k pc gaming swap their component after 2-5 years like everyone ?

Bro really said a 2600 and a 1060 is very bad, then said a 3070 is Mid bro. 😭

Bro’s case cost more than my build💀

Your first pc that u said was rly bad is better than mine

I litteraly crying, homie got 4 exhause fans and 2 intake.......

Completely stole the thumbnail AND the title from Henry Vo.

Imagine the 5070 coming out this year being faster than 4090 for 500$ 😅

Also for that cpu the pins are actually on the board not the cpu

If you wanted the "Best PC money could buy", then you should've got these parts: i9 13900KS Special Edition or the Ryzen 9 7900X3D for the CPU ASUS ROG Strix RTX 4090 or a MSI Surpim X RTX 4090 for the GPU Crucial T700 4TB for the SSD Any 80+ Titainium PSU(ROG Strix is good) Asus ROG Maximus Z790 Apex for the Motherboard Or just watercool the whole thing with a custom loop

well done
