How to Choose a Motherboard: 3 Levels of Skill 

Good spot.

Never go full Linus

I'm a linus bro. I recently dropped my psu when I was cleaning my pc. Waiting on new one to arrive

for first time builder only, why you keep watching it? thousand times...You lost it????

@@lucasrem because i like it? Problem?

@@amaansiddiqui2376 Paul has provided a great deal of useful information here. To me, watching it more than once would be an indication of superior intelligence.

me too mate me too

yeah man, having him teaching me what the Z's and B's means in a motherboard was super useful. Although I might keep my pc for a few years without needing to build another one, still helpful to know and help someone.

I was 17 years old when I built mine. Today I'm 24.

I am 17 years too, the difference is building a pc ain't an option for now. But I'll work hard and someday probably build one.

bahaha yea yea lol

Good Luck finding anything in stock!!

That's how I got stuck with a 3600x lol

Fireman 17 lol for me everything I need is in stock and either cheaper or normal price

Also applies to psu’s

Hehe I know don't you just wanna hug it.

"FBI" come here

1150, 1151, 1155, 1156, 1200, three different versions of 2011, 1366, 1356, 1567, 3647, and probably some I missed all in the last 10 or so years. I have zero faith that Intel will release a pcie4 capable CPU without a new socket, probably LGA 1201 or 1202.

@Jay _TooGoated Unsure, I just buy whatever motherboard is the cheapest XD

Stay safe

CPU? don’t you mean pc?

same

I too have a macbook, didn't buy it it's a stupid school computer, but apple is 100% not worth it at all. PC is way better and I hope to be building one soon

Brendan Booth It’s good as a netbook. Anything else it just falls apart.

Thank God you didn't buy a gaming laptop. Bought an alienware 13 r3 3 years ago and it's given me nothing but trouble until the motherboard finally fried itself.

Same, I’m getting tired of my 8 year old MacBook Air dragging itself across every application. Been bit by the PC building bug and just yesterday I bought my Ryzen 3600, a Phanteks case, and an ASRock B550m Mobo. So stoked.

heck ya bro

now’s not the time to purchase pc parts plan out your budget for november

So are monitors. I feel like I have 1/2 system gaming on a 25" 60hz 1080p.

@@thesovereignspark yuuup sadly but hey, if you wait 6 months you'll get the price drop on B450 or the new B550 cpus soo worth it. Idk about gpus tho

King Zahard ya think?

@@billb0313 im in the same boat, i wanna buy a used 144hz monitor but of course no ones posting things or such which is lame. Having a build capable of up to 170fps on AAA games but a 75hz monitor lol

Ignatius David Partogi damn i paired an asus rog b450 f with a ryzen 3 2200

@Ignatius David Partogi I got an x570 Taichi for my 3600. I don't upgrade platform very often, and want to be able to support whatever the highest end chip ends up (4950x or what have you) while still being able to overclock. Also. It was pretty, and I am vain.

@Ignatius David Partogi with ryzen that's actually getting hard to do lol

Lol MOAR CAPACITORS

Buildzoid He is not a level, just a nerdy hobby, you never need those skills, soldering???? Just find a board, don't make it yourself!!!!!!

Lmaoooo

Yeah well, you know - that's just like... your opinion man.

👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

I thought he was going to say like some tweezers

@Jay _TooGoated a good one

duuuuude

Nice pfp

When I build my parent's PC had to pick a case that would look nice since it would be more visible, it was on the ground floor. But personal computer always mobo/cpu first.

case is a non issue, too personal

lucas rem true dat!

Yup! That's how I do it

It depends on what kind of build. It's i'm going ITX. I always pick the case first. Since it's the most restrictive build type. With ITX upgradability is usually limited to what case you have. For mATX or ATX builds the case is less important.

Maybe just get a whole new system or you really love your case & power supply and keep those?!

khrom same At least the quality has gone up on the videos. I like watching, when new components come out. Like that I can see if I do need to get a new part, or save my money and wait for the next tier in parts.

because it's relaxing to watch paul and kyle, i watch alot of tech videos but mostly those two

Time travel is the only explanation

This bothered me during the whole video at first i thought he was having a balancing issue then when it flipped it,i was like ok fine. Then it disappeared and I'm screaming AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO GIVES A DAMN ABOUT THE RULES ANYMORE!

@@Painfully_Punny I have Siverstone and Riotoro cases that have a inverted layout. Maybe they travel too far in the future to get the first good AMD chip, Ryzen 1800x and had to travel back to get a b350/450 since b550 did not support zen1.

So if the mobo is inverted would it use a DWV CPU?

AM4 is gonna take it out

@@despoder1558 hot damn!

Only first time builder need Pauls channel?

@@despoder1558yeah, I hope so. Intel needs to git gud. I also have a B450 system. And another one with an I7-4770. Along with my main z390 code /9900k. Way to many systems xD

@@lucasrem it was a joke. I like these videos. I've probably made 30 systems the last 5 years. Still enjoy watching people talk about these things. Even though I probably know most of it.

Dude what’s did you end up going with?

When will we see 2.1 level

I don't think you mentioned nvme ssdslots on motherboard as a feature thingy but i might just have missed it.

Ye

you mean level 3 at 12:23 min

If you put the timestamps in your description starting with 0:00 you should get those nifty chapter breaks on the scrub bar.

Then you buy ryzen 9 5950x and you find out it doesnt have an integrated gpu on it and cant get a gpu because theres no stock

U have my like too

would like but 7 likes...

At least it is a promise they can keep.

At least they didn't mislead audience and buyers. If things go as what AMD planned and no Zen 3+++ refreshes, b550 will only be supporting 4000 series CPUs... Which is basically Kabylake but worse because Kabylake chipsets at least support Skylake CPUs while b550 doesn't support 3000 series and below. That's why you never should've bought a board and plan for upgrades. Buy whatever is best now and right for your current CPU.

@@cunnyman b550 does support 3000 series chips but not the 2000 series cpu's. Will need to use b550 for 4000 series because b350, x370, b450 and x470 won't be supported for them.

Alan Morgan Here, you just do a nerdy building hobby, need the upgrades??? Howny build you did this year? I just keep the 6900k build for ever, only replaced the RTX card 2 years ago, still the best there is.New intel 10 gen would only do 20% better, not worth it now!

Hard agree on the Mortar MAX, the tomahawk has no useful advantages over the mortar. SLI and Crossfire are dead, so mATX should be just as if not more relevant than ATX, yet it's the other way around strangely.

A cheap USB hub easily solves the issue of not enough USB ports, but he does also mention that different motherboards will have fewer USB or sata ports briefly at 9:00. I'd assume M.2 slots would also fall under this umbrella when looking at what connectivity options a motherboard has. The Tomahawk is often recommended over the Mortar because it's an ATX board, which will give you more room to work with, and also because the VRM is better for people interested in overclocking. Not many people use more than one M.2, and as mentioned before USB ports aren't really a deciding factor for most people.

Well if you didn't know this, the mortar is not sold in the USA. So your entire argument is redundant.

@@miniweeddeerz1820 well if you didn't know, US is not the only country in the world

@@termiguin1 B450 doesn't do SLI at all, the chipset itself doesn't support it. Mortar still does Crossfire, so not even that is a factor

good call

Same, Asus B550 E Gaming...cash ready to go 😁

@@RichardDower waiting fot Asus x570 E gaming to be back in stock.....

But since AMD is the only competitive cpu producer on the market right now cpu coolers don’t matter cuz amd comes with stock

The amazing Lian Li 011 Dynamic has 1 major flaw, it can't support some 140mm tall air coolers. As you imply you can get to the end of your dreambuild checklist and screw up this critical component.

Krunker Boyzz Not all dude. The 3950x doesn’t come with one.

Zach Silver Well threadripper doesn’t but let’s face it barely any of us can afford it

Level 5: does it have rgb? (like some i've seen with led strips).

Pffff, no. Xtreme, it's an x570 xtreme lol

I think maybe that was mislabeled and was in fact supposed to be X570; I haven't looked up the specs but considering it's marked "Yes" as having Precision Boost Overdrive, I think that's the case.

The117thCon First build, just do some RTX card on intel, if you got skilled you can do any weirdo build you need! why you still love this beginner content? you never did a build yourself?

Carl Kitchen Level 4 is for museum people only? On PS only museum! So weirdo that everybody is trashing it? hold on all your 1999 gear for ever! Voodoo days...... You own any remastered PC title? or you meant remastered to run on PS5 now? PC never need that...it runs old titles!

lucas rem ps5 isn’t even that good

I know that feeling

That's what I used to do too lmao. Then just decided I finally wanted it and went with a way overkill machine, but I didnt want to upgrade for a couple years so got an x570 with 3700x 3200mhz 4x8gb Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro, a 2070 super, 2 1tb m.2 (1 gen 4), 2tb SSD, 5tb HDD, EVGA G3 750w 80+ gold fully modular, with 8 x Corsair LL120 / Corsair H100i RGB PRO XT 240mm / Corsair Crystal Series 680x smart case. Hopefully lasts at least a few years.

Slowly brother. One part at a time, $20 a month builds you a beast. Start with PSU and motherboard.

What?

you know thats how cpu works right? even amd and every cpu company

You need to upgrade If you want to get the new Ryzen 4K series

Your not the only on , I built 2 PCs with b450 motherboards. One was for a friend and the other was for my gaming PC. I plan to keep the CPU for at least 5years unless the board or CPU die. Had my 3570k for 7 years , still work fine. But it was time for an upgrade. If you don't need pcie gen 4 your b450 will be sufficient enough.

Relax the 8th and 9th gen good for another 3yrs
