Yes, I needed this right now, I am swapping case 👍

Good luck

@MikeBob2023 4 месяца назад

Thank you, Chris. THIS is the kind of 'meat & potatoes' how-to video that PC building scrubs like me need the most, and there are too few of them (of this caliber) on RU-vid. As always, I appreciate your detailed explanations, sharing you reasoning, *and* your fantastic editing. 👍🏼 Please keep 'em coming! (P/S: My son's name is Daniel also. 🙌🏼)

Glad you enjoyed it!

@somebodynobody5677 2 месяца назад

Thank you for showing the steps afterwards I’m assuming you do this as well for CPU and MOBO changes too

I know this is too much to ask but could you do step by step guide on how to upgrade/swap an air and or aio cooler without removing the motherboard out of the case?

@MikeBob2023 4 месяца назад

(See what I mean, Chris? We need to know how to do this stuff! 😁)

@amz212 4 месяца назад

yes chris more content plzz!!

@ChristopherFlannigan 4 месяца назад

I'll keep it in mind for future video, lots of new cases to cover first

@NebachadnezzaR 4 месяца назад

I'd be interested in that as well. I think it's safe to assume most people updating their coolers will want to avoid the hassle of removing the whole board when modern cases usually have a cutout at the back to allow for it.

@Turnr1 3 месяца назад

i did this last week and it's very simple. just remove and replace

If I want to do a fresh install of windows the first thing I should do is enter into the bios and reinstall it,right?

@alanharris2799 4 месяца назад

18:02 a question if I may? What if you only wanted to do a fresh OS install and leave your game NVME ‘as is’ so you didn’t have to reinstall all the games? If you just format the windows OS 250GB drive and then do a fresh install, would you need to do anything else to use the game 1TB drive you left alone and didn’t format?

@ChristopherFlannigan 4 месяца назад

I've always done a clean install on all drives, but there maybe a way to do this, just never tried it. If you have a drive with just data you can put it in and it will work as before, but you would depend where you installed the games application and you would need to point it to the data and hope nothing had changed in the folder names.

What electric screwdriver do you use? Would like to order one like it for my own use.

hey im new to pcs but i was wondering if i could use my current ssd that's in a intel motherboard with a new motherboard that has an amd cpu socket

@xlZENlx 3 месяца назад

If I do this and do a clean install won’t it wipe my OS and all my drivers and such? I don’t have my original OS disc.

@CubinNguyen-he2cr 2 месяца назад

Did u deactivate the windows key before upgrading your parts or no ?

@coolduderobloxvintage9158 2 месяца назад

Is it the same for switching from intel to amd

@KiNg0fShReD 4 месяца назад

i’ve been wanting a video like this for so long. I’ve been terrified to do a motherboard upgrade. Can you PLEASE do one with a AMD to Intel Swap? and Also do we have to wipe the SSDs? I have an OS/Software SSD and a pure Games and captures SSD. I’d like to not have to reinstall all that if possible. Or is the wipe necessary to avoid problems/corruptions?

@ChristopherFlannigan 4 месяца назад

You may or may not have problems. It will definitely work and you can just install the intel drivers, but to avoid any potential problems I prefer the clean install.

@KiNg0fShReD 4 месяца назад

@@ChristopherFlannigan Thank you for the reply, I suppose it is not that much of a hassle to reinstall the games on the ssd and the captures i can put on an external drive or something. Thank you!

@alexard3923 4 месяца назад

a question are the same step with AMD , I want to make a change from a b550m-plus wifi to an aorus x670e X pro make the leap to the new generation 😊

@ChristopherFlannigan 4 месяца назад

If you have to wipe the M.2 drives how do you reinstall windows without having to pay for it again?

@threefiveseven Месяц назад

MAS script. Google it.

@xXkillalzXx Месяц назад

From what i understand you have to buy it again

@jackcawood5940 Месяц назад

A bit late but you can get thumb drives for pretty cheap with it already installed

There’s a way to link your copy of windows digitally to your account and you can unlink from one pc and then activate on another.

@caveman8325 2 месяца назад

Don't you afraid that you will tighten the screws to the mobo too much with the cordless screwdriver?

@Aggressive_Splooge 4 месяца назад

Would I have issues if I swapped my Intel Mobo and cpu to AMD mobo and CPU? Like can I just move the nvme and it will recognize everything? I've always wondered this.

@ChristopherFlannigan 4 месяца назад

It will work, but you may or may not have problems. Clean install would be my approach for this, but you could swap over and just do the clean install if you run into problems

@pauljohnbanaga4898 Месяц назад

does it need to reinstall all drivers??

@dennettshane1929 Месяц назад

So he wiped the two SSD sticks? Why did he have to do that part?

@davidskeppstedt8003 2 месяца назад

i dont get it with erasing ALL your files on the storage devices in the BIOS... Dosent that make the games and apps disappear??? or are you only deleating the old windows files?

@___NCK Месяц назад

It will delete all your files, softwares, games etc. He adviced to fresh install your OS upon upgrading your Mobo to prevent future issues.

Question: That asrock board support gen 5 M.2 drives but if the it populates the socket coming from the cpu then the pcie socket for the gpu goes from pcie 4x16 to 4x8 speeds. However if you use a gen 4 instead of gen 5 M.2 drive then it works at pcie x16 speeds. Is this true?.

@ChristopherFlannigan 4 месяца назад

There are two drives behind top heatsink one gen 5 and one gen 4 but only one of these can be used at once. The PCIE lanes come from CPU. If you put any drive in the gen 5 slot the top pcie slot for GPU goes down to 8 lanes. Put any drive in gen 4 slot no effect on top PCIE slot
