I'M FINALLY BACK!!! I'm still new to video production/editing so it's a little rough around the edges, but the only way to improve is to practice! Excited to start pumping out more content this year. Subscribe and follow me on instagram to join me on the journey: instagram.com/henryhaovo/ 😊
We’ve all sinned guys. We’ve lied, stolen, used God’s name in vain, and more. We now need to repent and trust that Jesus Christ died for our sins on the cross. This is very urgent tomorrow isn’t promised. Our works can’t save us but Jesus can!
your excitement was literally the same as mines when I built my first PC, I did SO much research and tried my best to make sure I did everything correct. However my pc isn't as high-end but it's the one I'm using now and I love it.
Immaculate build my dude! Just a few pointers for you: 1) there's a shroud to hide your motherboard 24 pin cable. Use it! It's the metal cutout directly right next to your motherboard. 2) you forgot the peel on the IO shield! Lastly, personally I would use two individual 8 pin pcie cables to power my gpu, not in parallel. (Just personal preference tho)
Thank you! - I did try to hide the 24-pin cable behind that shroud you mentioned, but there wasn't a lot of slack on the cable so I was scared it would bend the pins in the 24-pin connector slot over time. I feel like it would be a lot better with some custom cables, maybe something for the future! - I did forget! I'm still really new to video production and sometimes I forget to record some important bits 😅 But I did peel it after the recording :) - Thanks for the tip! Maybe' I'll have to go in and change that 👍🙏
@@HenryHaoVo Be sure to use two seperate PCI-E cables from the PSU into the 3080, I have one and it pulls 320W and the max output on the single daisy chained cable is only 300W. Most GPU manuals will also tell you to use two seperate cables, my 3080 FE did.
@@HenryHaoVo Just like Eric Smith mentioned, each cable is only rated x amount of watts, so for high powered components you should 100% use two seperate cables that are each plugged into your PC's power supply to ensure the limit isn't exceeded. Otherwise, loved the vid.
Watching you build your first gaming PC was really fascinating. It's impressive how you managed to do it with no prior experience, and the end result was definitely worth the effort. As a gamer myself, I know how important it is to have a high-end gaming rig that can handle the latest games and provide a smooth and immersive experience. I appreciate how you took the time to explain each step of the process in detail, from choosing the right components to assembling everything together. It's great to see how accessible building a PC can be, even for someone who's never done it before! :))
You should be running two separate power cables from your PSU to your graphics card instead of using the pigtail to make sure you are getting the proper amount of power!
Yes! This Graphics Card can suck a lot of Watts. in His case all needs to come from 1 cable. If you use 2 seperate ones you can limit the stress on the cable. usually 1 with pigtail should not be a problem. but if you are able to switch to 2 seperate ones on a modular psu, you should.
Okay… I genuinely enjoyed this. I’ve been building pc’s for about 12 years now and I highly highly respect that you did your homework and digging before just jumping in the deep end like most new builders on YT 😂 To be so new to this, you went into it with confidence and joy. Mad respect, buddy 😊👊🏻
Nice build! I'd recommend for you to use two separate PCI-E power cables though, daisy chaining is okay but it's more optimal to use two separate cables for your graphics card, especially those high power ones like the 3080.
@@OleNesie Probably for costs. Daisy-chaining isn't optimal because all the electricity is going through that single cable instead of two separate ones.
@@crusherfire1 Daisy chain cables are perfectly fine unless you use a no name chinese PSU. My 4090 is fed by 2x2 + adapter on a Seasonic platinum 1200W and it runs great.
“I swear more videos are coming” lol thanks for the entertainment and nice PC! Wish you made more content honestly but hey 3 videos and 80k subs. Pretty solid stuff
So glad you’re back! I can genuinely say that I was legitimately worried about you! I hope you’re doing better! Please never feel obligated to post but just know we will be here when you do 🙏🏻
I LOVE how all the components always come with stickers to put on your case to show off what you got under the hood. Like the hotrods at a street race with their hoods up. PC building is absolutely intimidating the first time, but by the time you're done, you realize it isn't actually that hard, and the DEEP satisfaction as it powers up is hard to beat. "I did that!" They've done a really good job over the years of making it really easy to put things together.
I built my first one a few weeks ago and used the same case and cooler, absolutely love the size and after about an hour things started going a lot more smoothly😂 and the excitement after you finish building it, it feels so amazing😂
use seperate pcie cables for ur gpu power to make sure its getting full power, since a one cable even when its using a splitter can only provide so much through it
actually it will provide the full power the GPU wants and that is a problem because the cable its self is not rated for the amount of power the GPU will pull making it vary hot and possibly melt the rubber covering the wires shorting them out causing a fire
@@owo1744 even legitimate PSUs safety features fail that's why i said it could possibly happen not that it was going to happen ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-D2Ahkv-64rs.html
Yeah for a 2 pin you for sure wanna go with separate cables. This image is directly from a PUS manufacturer and covers what you should/should not do with your pcie cables. Hopefully anyone seeing this will find it handy. i.redd.it/qfwh3kboeyl51.png
@@donateifyourwillingtoanyth2515 and the person above you too: Content creation is hard, takes time, and life happens. No need to be nasty about it. I said he had super high quality videos, and his posting schedule doesn't change that. Be kind, especially to people you don't even know.
@Aaron T on PCs if it's set to 3600 in task manager, then you are set. On laptops, if I recall correctly, it can not be changed and it is always be set to it's maximum rated speed.
Very beautiful build, I’m currently getting the parts for my pc in as we speak. Next Saturday they will all have arrived. Specs: (for people who want to know) Ryzen 7 5800x Corsair rgb pro 16Gb 2x 8Gb 3200Mhz Asus ROG strix B450 F Corsair 750 watt psu ROG strix RTX 3070ti (currently have) 2TB HDD 500Gb M.2 SSD Corsair 4000D airflow (case) Corsair H100i 240mmAIO (currently have)
Honestly one of the best PC build videos out there, because it covers just enough for viewers to understand (without either over or under complicating anything), and it's a complete build from start to finish and IT'S UNDER TEN MINUTES!
I swear I just finished building almost the same rig and I have went through all the same emotions as you did. I am just about to hit the power on button! Wish me luck.
And when the world needed him the most, he came back!!! CANT WAIT TO SEE MORE FIRE VIDEOS!! You inspired me to start my own RU-vid channel of documenting my progress of learning new skills. Thank you very much!
the ram is lowkey the most terrifiying part man. Built my first pc and the RAM got me second guessing myself since using too much pressure seemed a little iffy.
I work in IT so I don't even think about it anymore but god damn I couldn't get my first ever PC to start for days just to figure out that I hadn't pushed the ram in hard enough
I just love that RU-vid is recommending me these videos after i've gone through an upgrade going from Phenom II to 5th gen Ryzen 5! Oh that the videos coming from those with no PC building experience are way better than what the Verge put out!
I know im late, but heres a few tips coming from a 14 year old... 1. When applying thermal paste, you dont have to spread it across, its better to just put a pea sized dot in the center. 2. Your 24 pin connector should be able to fit in that slot located next to it, I know it may be tough to fit but it should be able to slide in once you get the end through. 3. When I build a pc, I usually start by installing the motherboard, and then the fans. It gets the boring screwing in done early so the rest is just fun. (this is based on opinion) Honestly really impressed for a first time build, usually you see the cables everywhere and a lot of problems. Great job, you earned a subscriber.
I recommend installing a rear exhaust fan just to help exhaust extra heat and add some more lighting to that area. Everyone else already mentioned the GPU plus needing to be independent.
Hey just a tip here, dont spread around the thermal paste like that. If you do a dot in the center, when you push down the cooler itll push it all out to cover the whole thing, that way you wont have extra bits leaking into the cpu
He's spreading the thermal paste using a thermal paste applicator. It's fine. Using that method gives better heat distribution than the center dot method.
You did a great job with all of the work needed to be done when building a pc! I am trying to build my first pc now and I know how hard it is. Thanks for your motivation!
We’ve all sinned guys. We’ve lied, stolen, used God’s name in vain, and more. We now need to repent and trust that Jesus Christ died for our sins on the cross. This is very urgent tomorrow isn’t promised. Our works can’t save us but Jesus can!
I appreciate it! The whole process took about 8 hours over 3 days (I ran into some issues that took a while to sort out lol) but I'm super happy with how it turned out! :)))
Great build and you even did the ram placement correct. The only thing i can add is AMD might be sketchy for a first time builder because of the problems you might get and have to fix yourself, the other thing is the AIO, where people often forget about noise levels, and corsair is one of the louder coolers, but that might be a preference.
Honestly, I've been building my own PCs since 1986 and only recently did a water cooled which is a still on going project. You did great on your build.
I did my first build with zero experience recently. I had no idea that case fans spin counter-clockwise, so my Phanteks NV7 has two intake fans and ten exhaust fans. I had to order more reverse-blade D30 fans that will take until Friday, August 30 at the latest to arrive. Aside from not knowing where to plug in the AIO pump power cable, having to get another AM5 standoff screw from Phanteks support when I lost one (yes, I used a lot of Phanteks in my rig, namely the case and cooling components to keep all of the RGB in a single ecosystem), and my piss-poor cable management, my first build went a lot smoother than I expected. It posted on the first power-up, and I flashed the BIOS no problem. Now I just need those new fans, during which time I can fix my cable management.
I built my first PC during the great GPU drought of 2021. I had an issue the moment I turned on my PC for the first time. The PC refused to boot while giving me an error code (I think it was code: 00). So I thought I had a faulty motherboard, but after getting it replaced with a new one it still didn't work. After much deliberation, the culprit was the CPU which I still couldn't believe. The brand new Intel 10th processor was defective out-of-the-box, even though the failure rate is like 0.3% or smth.
Just finished my first PC build with an I5-12600k and an EVGA 3080 RTX, i felt in over my head and it was stressful at times… But honestly ill never forget the feeling of first turning it on and seeing it run.
Yooooo I did the same build but with the gigabyte card. What resolution monitor you go for? My build came out to like $2k, I wonder what cost op so much extra in his build.
I’m about to go through the same thing, and was trying to find a video that suited to me and out of all the damn videos over 15min to an hour long. This is THE BEST video for building a pc without making it very complicated and overwhelming. Great video bro. Loved it and it helped me out a lot cause I’m about to build my PC soon. Not so scared anymore after watching your vid 😄
LMFAO man your reaction is genuine. This gave me the motivation to follow through on my build and go through it. Was stressed on the assembly part but I’ll figure it out. Thanks man
you said you were confused but you actually did a great job for your first build imho. a tip for future reference is when applying your own thermal paste you don't need to use the thermal paste spreader, squishing down the blob should get it to spread out just fine but you seemed to do everything correct.
Congratulations, I did the same thing twice in the last 4 years, its so fun and easy but expensive, lol .Corsair is very good stuff. And yes at some stage I can see you taking the thermal paste off and doing a smaller amount. Two things I have had happened on my game rig.1 The graphics card started to throttle and get hot after about a year so I looked at you tube and undid the heat sink and redid the thermal paste as the video showed and and it fixed it no worries. It must dry out after a while., The second thing was my 35 inch monitor would give me no signal response some times. So once again YT is my friend and it showed how to take out your ram and using a school rubber on the connections. The gold bits. That also worked. Wish you luck. Well done on the build.
i have the dark hero also. And now EK screwed us over and stopped producing the waterblock for it. Notes. Dont spread the thermal paste, you can make air bubbles and drop the efficiency. let the cooler placement spread it naturally. Your GPU started sagging immediately. But the most important thing. DONT use the single gpu cable for that card. I know the cable has two 8 pins, but for a card drawing that much power you really really need to use two separate GPU cables and only the first 8 pin from each. That thing can literally catch on fire trying to draw too much power from one cable, it DID happen to me.
I used the same case when I built mine back in spring of 2021. It's a monster and so beautiful. I put a 5800X and a 3070 (now a 3080 Ti) though. Will be upgrading to the 5800X3D though as it has a great performance boost for the games I play.
No No No a 5800x 3d is very good for games provided you get a very high end grafics card. I assure you that the performance difference will not be noticeable. In your position I would wait for 40 series to become available and get a 4070 or 4080. That will give much more performance than just upgrading your processor. I think a normal 5800x 3d will not be needed for a 4070 or evan a 4080 in the future for the grafics cards are quite far behind the CPUs right now, at least for gaming. Video editing is a different story. You don't get a 5800x to get more game performance over a 5600x you get a 5800x to prepare for a new grafics card. I hope this helps you to change your mind. If it doesn't than just remember this when you get 130 fps instead of 120 frames on fortnite 1440p on ultra settings. What you got now is good.
