This is by far the best PC Build series of all time, it will never be outdated and should bring in tons of viewers to your channel. Hidden gem I tell ya! Great job TechDweeb, can't wait for parts 2 & 3! You are a true Legend!!!
Just recently found your videos. Not sure why you don't have 100k+ subs by now. Despite your obviously geeky persona, your down to Earth, honest perspective is refreshing. Even if you are Canadian. I won't hold it against you, pal.
I'm not a beginner in building PCs, but I think this is one of the best tutorials for building a PC. I myself wanted to make a video tutorial on building a PC but I think the topic is very complicated to teach a beginner. This checks all the boxes for a beginner to know to build a PC from scratch. Cheeers!
PC Parts Picker has been a great online tool to use from time to time. This was a good starter for newbies though. Also need to keep in mind not to go back too far since Windows 11 may not be compatible with CPU.
I actually had a section in the original vid about PC Parts Picker, but I had to cut it to keep the video short. I like it as a 'check your work' tool, I don't think it's as good as finding all the parts yourself but it is great for checking for compatibility issues.
@@TechDweeb Totally agree. I didn't put the URL in my comment as it probably would have been banned in the comments section. I've had that happen before. But yes, its a very good tool to verify what you are doing after choosing your parts based on your own research. All a great learning lesson.
God I love the format of your videos, stumbled upon this channel not too long ago and started watching a couple of your videos, good stuff dude. You're definitely gonna climb upwards from here on out. Keep up the hard work!
Just a couple more points: For any build (budget/intermediate/mr.moneybags) ... people should focus on the components that might last multiple upgrades first. So, good quality PSU, a good case. Maybe put a little bit more money on the bits you're going to re-use ... and perfipherals. It might be better to accept a lesser mobo/cpu/gpu combo if you put a little bit more cash on the platform (PSU/Case/Cooling) that will get re-used in the future. Or not.
@@n4sty406 to be honest they're both way out of budget. He currently has a rt730 so almost anything is an upgrade. Currently looking at getting them a 1070
when's part 2 going live? :D I just got parts for a new build for my wife and I'd like to see your take on building the system, an actual guide as you did here. This video helped me a lot choosing the parts for the next build, I didn't do it in quite some time and it was a great refresher :)
How to pick your build: 1.GPU: Pick the best one you can afford with your budget(will be about 50% of your complete build.) 2.CPU: Cheapest one that won't bottleneck your gpu. 3 Motherboard: Cheapest one your parts fit into. 4.RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16 GB 3200MHz 5.Powersupply: Whatever with atleast twice the tdp of your gpu. 6.Memory: Add to your liking. 7.Carefully mix all of your ingredients, and pour them into the case(remember: ,,cablemanagment" and ,,airflow" are just buzzwords and thus irrelevant) 7.Case: Poke some holes into a shoebox and occasionaly blow into it during heavy duty tasks, to prevent overheating. You're welcome, no need to thank me.
Thank you for this video, it was very helpful. I was already thinking about the 3600 anyway so this solidified my choice. I did use all of your links except the MOBO--I went a different way as I wanted more SATA ports. Again thank you.
Love the new series Dweeb. I do dissagree with the GPU choice. The 3050s are a bit overpriced even today for little benefit. For a budget build, I would lean more towards an RX 6600. More perf, cheaper. A used RTX 3060 could probably be a good substitute especially considering the used cards are generally going to be the 12gb versions. The newer RTX 3060s are going to be the 8gb version (meh). The encoder that comes with the 6600 (and above) isn't so terribad for most common use-cases. Someone who is really serious about video or streaming will get a dedicated machine for the streaming side and use something like the UHD60 to split the video with the streaming PC.
Haha, I had a feeling you'd mention that. Yeah I don't disagree, the 6600 is probably the best value gpu available right now (I did say the 6600 would be a better choice in the vid). I personally think RTX features are worth paying extra for, probably not enough to warrant the difference in price here, but it's not that far off. This entire build is for my buddy who specifically needs an RTX GPU on the cheap (some rendering stuff, I dunno, it's what he wants so whatever). Rather than make another 'budget build' video I figured I'd make a tutorial series instead.
Where's the part where it all explodes in a huge ball of fire and brimstone? I see you're almost at 20k subs... maybe if you build that toaster you'll get there.
My Core i7-12700K's Intel UHD 770 alone paired with 32GB DDR5 is way faster than a GT1030 on Crysis. The problem with the GT1030 is the 2GB of VRAM, if i were you, i would sell that thing quickly as possible and get something like the RX580 which is 150 bucks and it has 8GB of memory, consider better options. I know the GT1030, the pain of 2GB of VRAM, Crysis 1 maxes out almost at 4GB 😅.
@@saricubra2867 I don't play crisis or any FPS so I couldn't care less. I have my media PC on 720P on my 4K 55" TV. Because I'm 50+ and my eyes are shat anyway. GT1030 runs everything I want to play at 60fps at 720p. Anything more than that is a waste of money and power. Plus I'd need to upgrade from a SFF Dell to fit anything else. More waste of money and space.
@@randysmith7094 💯 You're a real one. If only more people had this mentality the world would be a better place. The mindset translates to all aspects of life/consumerism not just PCs. I'm not saying everyone is good with 60fps on 720p, but just knowing what suits you're need, and not worrying about overpriced/overkill systems just because.
about PSU they need to be at least 80 plus certified and they must buy a well branded PSU unless they want to fry their system PSU= power supply for those who don't know i payed 100+ euros for my PSU of the 800 euro budget
@7:54 - Suggesting a Ryzen 5 3600 in this day and age? What kind of a sadist are you? ;0 [because if **I** have it, it couldn't possibly be the right choice for anyone. Ditto for the B450M board and 2x8 GB TeamGroup VulcanZ I also have. :]
I REALLY wanted to pronounce them the PROPER way for this video, but I decided I should go with the "conventional" way since this is a guide for beginners. NEVER AGAIN THOUGH!!!
Good morning TD! ooh, @1:32 , I'm going to guess a power supply board, from inside of a computer power supply. My first guess was TV, but then it would likely have sockets to connect different daughter boards for different models of TV, instead of the soldered on cables. Supporting evidence: It looks like a bunch of different transformers for different power stepdowns, there is a C13 plug for AC input, and it has RoHS and safety markings so it is from some company that is trying to show compliance with North-American and European regulations.
Oh good guess! It's the power board for a very old monitor actually. Ordered this off AliExpress to fix the old thing (I assumed it's the power board, if not I wasted my $ on this !)
@@TechDweeb ooh cool! I wonder if it is from that magical time when, allegedly, corporate espionage in the component-world lead to multiple years of bad capacitors across all of tech. I was doing tech support for *insert large PC company based in Texas* PCs back then and it was a mess. (Literally, the capacitors often looked like little soda cans that had popped their top.)
