Yeah this is the Microcenter bundle going on right now. It's a good deal. Unfortunately I waited too long now the motherboard is OOS at my store.
Same ! Tustin store?
@@swishersifuqI got the gigabyte b650 yesterday
Nice to watch someone explain things without drinking a 6-pack of Red Bull before doing the video. Calm and easy...Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I got the same combo but for $450 and CL32 ram from Microcenter a couple of days ago. Putting it together tomorrow.
I know it was a month ago when you started, but you may need to install new drivers to access the internet, install the AMD version of the wlan + bluetooth drivers with compatibility settings once opened
Got the same bundle (except my RAM is CL32), super excited for the build
its full hd build you can rock 1440p but if you wanna stable fps in new games and high fps on high refresh rate monitor its 1080ú beast.7700 x with 7800 xtg is the best fit. 7700 xcpu is very good for games.
I think it is pretty amazing that you answer so many questions and provide more support, especially to newbies.
I have been building and rebuilding computers for twenty+ years and I have a very weird problem with this motherboard, Team group 32gb ram and a 7800x3d that I got in a bundle deal from Canada Computers. (similar to your Micro center deal?)
Anyway, the board is perfect, OC is amazing, booted up first try, everything a dream. Except, for the life of me, I cannot update the bios! I have spent hours researching and using different USB 2.0 drives, used the red USB slot pushing the little button, tried from the bios, tried different bios releases.
No update method works. Never had this problem before! Any ideas?
Oh my, no need to reply!
All of that troubleshooting missed such a simple solution: Make sure to plug your USB stick into the bios slot! Duh...
Np now. On the latest bios and the only thing I can say is my sixty eight year old eyes just didn't see properly in my dimmly lit basement.
I was all set to return the bundle too.
Thanks for the update I hope it helps out someone as well. I think I always put it in the bios usb port.
Building computers with a metal ring-BOLD! or not as clumsy as me lol, i constantly short things out :(
I just bought this same combo for a new build, i was curious what drivers i will need to download for the motherboard or what i will need to do after installation
You will need the Bluetooth and wireless drivers. I would also do the AMD chipset. Make sure you download the right version and rev for the drivers, Gigabyte didn't make it simple.
I'm about to put this combo together myself. I have no idea how to "test" things as I go... I'm going to find out if I have a bad part after I put the whole thing together i guess... Unless there's any obvious advice I need to be given?
What I like to do is put in the cpu memory, cooler and then connect power and try a boot, With the AM5 CPU they do have an integrated gpu on them so you should get into the BIOS. if you get there then test the GPU. After that put it in the case. I have learned the hard way you test then put it in the case.
Thanks for sharing this build! Got this deal from Microcenter a few days ago and running smoothly. Strange that the pump header is at the bottom of the board. Did you end up connecting your radiator to the CPU fan header and the radiator mounted fans to the CPU_OPT header? Also, any sense of what the CPU_LED header is for?
I connected it to the CPU fan header. This AIO has one fan connection that it uses.
they gave your friend the wrong RAM, should have been the CL32 one if he bought it for $450 during the Feb 12-14 sale. Makes a big difference since the CL32 was apparently on the SK hynix overclocks better than the CL36 samsung die model
Could be, He bought it last weekend. Finally got the build and video done today.
It is a hike to get to microcenter.
When you first tested it out without it being in the case yet,
do i need to use thermal paste on cpu with the temporary cooler even for testing before i put it in the case
Yes, I used thermal paste with a temp cooler.
I would guess it would've been easier to put the heat pump on if you'd mounted the radiator first - it wouldn't be in your way....
you don't need to plug in the 4 pin for cpu power, what you need to do is out of the 3 cpu power cables, determine which one has the correct pin shapes for the connection as all you need is 12v
Thanks for testing.
@@GrayaOverload you are welcome, also in case you don't know the memory can fit backwords and the memory slots are not labeled correctly in the manual. I managed to 1) install the memore backwards and 2) use the wrong slots. Once I figured that out then I got a screen.
@@misterdude123 I hope it helps someone. I think they also had drivers mess up for a while on their site for the wifi and bt with all the versions and revs.
@@GrayaOverload yes it does overall. For those reading this, you definitly want to get the latest drivers for the chip set etc as Windows, surprise surprise, does not install the latest chipset drivers by itself.
I built this combo to replace my i7 4790k PC. I used a heat sink air cooler instead of AIO. Still using my old RX580 for now. It's a beast at 1080p. But definitely bottlenecked at the GPU.
How bad is the bottle necking? I just purchased this combo today to switch from exact same processor as you. I was gonna stick a 1070 8gb card in it for now.... Honest opinion, should I just hold off till I have a more modern GPU?
@@adamford2373 I m happy with the performance at 1080p. I'm waiting as well, to upgrade my GPU. Bottleneck is really not an issue at this resolution. I'm going to upgrade my monitor first, then the GPU.
I dont know if I have a bad motherboard or not, when i flip the PSU switch on it lights up my AIO for a split second but then when I click the power button it doesnt turn on. Please help.
Any red light on the board?
@@GrayaOverload after hours I finally got it to "turn on" but yes the VGA light its on and on the screen its telling me to reset FTPM or deny it.
Im completely lost.
@@dragonkiller1270 I am guessing this is a new build. You can reset the ftpm, a new system will not have that set up. It should continue after you reset. Ftpm is used for example disk encryption.
@@GrayaOverload yes its a new build and my first.
Thank you very much I did the reset and it worked! You are awesome man!
@@dragonkiller1270 glad it is working. your welcome.
What your opinion on GIGABYTE B650 AORUS PRO AX? I want a budget future proof mobo that can handle 9000 series easily
I think that is a good choice, I don't know how much you want to be future proof but this one doesn't have pcie 5.0 on the x16 for the GPU. The b650E chipset would have that.
Thank you for the video, it's really well done and explains specifically, I ask you a courtesy, in the description of the video could you put the links for the purchase and also power supply recommendations? Unfortunately I live in Italy and the Amazon store is not as stocked as in other countries and specifically I have to find the parts in other stores
Sure, I will go thru and try to find links. The microcenter bundle was from a physical store I drove to. In this build I think it was a 750W or a 850W platinum PSU.
Do you need standoff screws? Because I just build my pc and it doesn’t work I don’t know why because everything turns on just no screen but I got told that maybe I didn’t put in standoff screws I got a bunch of screws with my case and I lined it perfectly and put screw in can you help?
Standoffs are usually installed in your case already and you last comment confirms that. There are 4 lights on the motherboard what ones are on when you boot the machine (they are next to the memory slots)?
@@GrayaOverload none of those lights is going on when I boot up
@@danielavdalian4076 verify all power plugs are connect tightly.
@@GrayaOverload it is
@@danielavdalian4076 do you get any lights from the motherboard when powering up?
I wish the camera angle was different because I cant really tell what wires your connecting to what
I wish I had more cameras, :) next build I will work on that.
@@GrayaOverload just a better camera angle would be nice so we can see where your connecting wires and how you set it up internally. But more cameras would also be good as well, and thank you.
Yup got that same exact bundle
Do you have any video on how to progress from here on the screen? Bios etc. Fan definitions etc? Thanks! This video was great :)
Not fully, I do have a video walking thru the bios and another one installing windows. Even a couple setting up a local account avoiding the Microsoft account requirement in windows 11 on setup.

Did u need to update the bios ? Or did it work out of the box ? Also what bios version ?
I updated the bios, I would expect now unless you had a board sitting on shelves for a while that it will work out of the box.
@@GrayaOverload tysm for the help
I have a very similar build. Have had nothing but crashing and bsod issues since i built it.
@@mitchcolangelo550 latest bios and at defaults in BIOS?
@@GrayaOverload yes sir. Tried swapping ram sticks. Usually its memory management bsod. Im desperate at this points
@@mitchcolangelo550 if only one ram stick still have the bsod? Also what memory?
Hi, i have a question about which screw you used for the ssd installation part? Im having trouble finding a screw that can unscrew the ssd cover currently.
The m.2 screws are in little plastic bags in the motherboard box. They are really tiny. The screw drivers I use are ifixit ones, but I have used jewelry screw drivers before I got the ifixit kit.
Would a better mother board with more 4.0 lanes be better for this cup? Or is this board completely optimized?
A better motherboard would be with pcie 5.0 lanes. b650e or x670e board will have the top requirements.
What tool are you using to remove the m2 heat sink cover screws? I am finding it impossible to remove those screws. I am using a correct screw driver, but feel like they are stuck and if I use any more pressure or torque, i am scared that I might damage the mother board
I use the ifixt small driver for this. you can also use a jewelry screwdriver set. This one wasn't to bad but the other build i did with the first version of this board, I did have trouble.
I got this motherboard and the screws at the m.2 parts were striped. Probably should be avoided for anyone watching.
I’ve been looking at this combo since Jan. Is it worth it. I would have to drive about 3.5 hours to my nearest Micro Center. To bad it’s only in store purchase
I think it is worth it. I saw this deal for 450 at microcenter recently. I drove down with my friend to get it and it is just over 2 hour drive. He got the 499 deal, because we went before the price dropped.
Here’s my issue:
I have no idea what to do at this point.
I have a Lian Li ALC 360 Coolant System and a Gigabyte B650 X AX V2 Motherboard (note: the Lian Li pump cable only has a 3 pin socket that still will fit on the 4 pin motherboard header. I have the pump plugged into the system pump 4 pin on the motherboard. I have the other cable of the two plugged into the CPU Fan Header on the mother Board. Nothing is plugged into the CPU_Opt. The lights on the pump come on, but the fans do not move nor does it recognize/detect the CPU Fan or the Pump in the BIOS. Both says N/A. It does however stay at about 37 degrees. No recognition of coolant fans at all. My only issue with this new build.
have you tried to plug it into the CPU_opt to see if you get anything reported there. I haven't found the manual for that cooler yet.
Do you have another fan you can plug in to each CPU_FAN and PUMP to verify they are reporting in bios?
No I haven’t tried to plug into the CPU_Opt yet.
I was nervous to, I didn’t want to hurt anything. I haven’t built in a while.
Which cable would you recommend plugging into the CPU_Opt?
The main or the one that is supposed to be the pump?
The Fans haven’t spent at all?
Again the Pump stays lit.
All fans in the case work except the AIO.
As far as the Lian Li ALC 360, I’m contemplating taking it back bc it is hard to find anything on it.
The manual is very cheesy.
It’s been a bit of a head ache.
Also that is for responding, your amazing!!!
As far as another fan, I do not.
You shouldn't hurt it. But you could just try plugging a case fan in to each the CPU_OPT CPU_FAN and PUMP and verify they are working in bios.
I just installed this exact combo into a friends computer I have a no boot with a vga light on. I've done all of the troubleshooting tricks to remedy thinking I have a bad board. I have seen a lot of issues with this combo did you experience any issues after install?
I didn't have any issues. Since you already troubleshooted, I would have to agree with a bad board.
I got the same bundle this week for my first build. Finally got it all put together and am getting the VGA debug light when trying to boot. Tried to swap with a different card to see if it was a gpu issue, but still getting the same VGA light. Any ideas?
I would take out the gpu and then try. The 7000 series does have a integrated gpu so you can hook up to the motherboard HDmi or DP.
hey i was just wondering, what does the red light on the motherboard mean at the end?
It is the boot light. I booted the machine while filming so it will get thru each light and stay on the boot one until it is booted.
@@GrayaOverload ah alright, i have the same motherboard and i was experiencing the red light when i boot it so it had me a bit worried, the pc is good and it runs fine but i’m glad to know what that red light means. thank you
@@ShelfOwO no problem. Happy to hear you new build is up and running.
Hey I have the same motherboard. I also have the red light lit up. Is that normal? Thinking of taking it into microcenter
had the same thing where the label boot red light was on. I just had to install my drivers too fix this.
@@oscargonzz ok which drivers did you install?
Ok I fixed it. It was by gpu light. I just needed a driver update thanks!
I have the same motherboard. It displays that same red light that you had but it does not display anything when I plug it into my monitor. Is the red light supposed to be there? How did you get rid of it if it’s not?
Yes it went away. What light exactly is on? There are 4 right there.
@@GrayaOverload I have the dram light. All my pieces were bought new. I’ve tried taking the PC apart and rebuilt it 3 times. I’ve tried removing the battery from the motherboard. I’ve tried updating bios with a flash drive. Tried using just one stick of ram but nothing has worked. Still no display :(
I am guessing you had the ram in A2 and B2. I would say it is a bad mobo or bad ram.
Yeah it was a bad motherboard. I replaced it and now it works fine. Thanks!
I just built 7800xt and 7800x3d but when i turned it on for first time, only the cpu fan / rgb turned on ; there is only red VGA indicator, cpu / boot / dram status are all off. Any suggestions for first trouble shooting steps
just have in CPU, Memory, Power and try. The Cpu does have a integrated gpu for display.
@dragoon101698 have you found a fix? Same build has the same issue and shuts down randomly 🙃
I have a red CPU light on… the system boots up for 5 seconds ONLY if I hit the q-flash button.. any ideas? Thanks
Reseed your cpu. While it is out check the socket for any bent pins.
Also what cpu?
😂just got the same combo today but the motherboard stay on red light and couldn’t boot. Ma I know how to troubleshoot?
Which red light there are 4 (cpu, ram, vga, boot)?
Did u need to update the bios prior to installing the cpu?
I didn't for the 7800x3d.
did you not flash bios or anything? before install?
I tested the build (cpu memory power), to make sure everything worked and I didn't need to use bios flash plus. Then updated bios to the latest. Next I put it in the case.
thank you sir I subbed and liked the video thanks for the great video, also 1 more question @@GrayaOverload when you say try and boot* at 2:50 if it gets to bios then does that mean it boots is that correct getting to bios means it can boot? sorry for all the questions
@@imp9ct239 yes if I get a bios screen and I can see my cpu and memory and drive. I consideriy in good shape.
how do you turn on the mobo without case i turned on psu no power @@GrayaOverload
Power supply is a given sorry should have mention that as well.

Hi there , can you tell me a mothernboard that comes without issues? I wanna buy also amd 7800x3d and combine it with 4070 ti super but every motherboard have issues as i see, Msi are good but have drivers and bios issues, Gigabyte B650 you propose i have seen many people saying in your video comments that their mobo is faulty and they need to replace it.... Can you propose an AM5 motherboard close to 200-300€ that can work properly?
Thanks in advance
In all my years building all manufactures in every price range I have had an rma. I have not tested enough boards to get a good read on what ones have issues. My recommendations is to pick one I a price range with features you want. I would also make sure the return policy is reasonable.
Is the atx_12v and 12v1 both required? My new psu does not have a 4pin connector
There are some people that were able to only use the atx_12v, I hope someone else can confirm.
it depends on the components u are using. My psu doesnt have the 4 pin concector and it works with a ryzen 7600, RTX 2060 super but the LEDs of the pc case shut down after it start running. So the answer is yes, but u can have some problems
HI, I have the same build with Seasonic Focus Plus 750W Gold 80 Plus semi mod psu but when I plug in the 4 pin cpu plug along with the 8 pin my computer does not turn on , but when i plug it in just the 8 pin the computer turns on and runs ok. Some people told me without the additional 4 pins I am under utilizing my cpu. What should I do?
Off the PSU is it two 8-pin (4+4)? If so, I would swap them to see if the PSU has issues or mobo. On a 7800x3d if you were only to have an 8-pin I don't think you would be under-utilizing the CPU it is 120wTDP not the 170W TDP on the chips higher in the stack. If I were you I would want to know if the motherboard or PSU had the issues.
@GrayaOverload I tested it with a new psu
And it was the psu problem. I just want to know if I should change the psu or keep it. A lot of people are saying it won't make a big difference
@@manutap it won't make a big difference but if you every upgrade to a 16 core and push it then it could. I would still rma the psu because of the knowledge of it having a problem. You don't know if that is the only problem with the psu. I know waiting for an rma is annoying when you have the pc built.
@GrayaOverload I was given psu for free from my brother. I was hoping to save some money by using it, but I guess I just have to spend that extra money. Already ordered a new PSU. Thanks for the advice.
@@manutap Ah. How old is it? I would still check the warrenty some are quite long, up to 10 years on some.
What is that case

I have the exact same combo build from microcenter, it came with bios F3 and i kept getting boot up loop that said "auto reparing" and it just kept repeating over and over and never goes into windows. I powered it off and swapped rams around and it boots up fine. Anyone else have this issue? I updated bios to F5 and seems stable for longer but few days in it happened again. Any help would be much appreciated 👏
If you have expo or xmp on I would turn that off, to see if the problem go away.
@@GrayaOverload after going though a bit of process of elimination, tried both ram sticks alone in every slot and booted into windows but extremely sloppy. I then suspected the mobo , cpu or ram was bad, i took no chances and returned the whole thing and re-purchased the combo again and hoped for the best. Installed everything and it booted up perfectly with the same windows install that i already had. I didn't even update bios and this thing has been running great. I suggest people test out their equipment extensively before the 15 day return policy expires and return if any issues. Good luck people! the combo is still a steal at micro center.
@@JustAnMMAfan Great point. test out equiptment in that return policy.
I'm having a problem with the nzxt case, I can't figure out what I need to connect into the cpu fan slot. The connections are slightly different to the slider pins
Which nzxt case, so I can look it up?
@@GrayaOverload it is the nzxt h7
Thanks, I hope I can follow the question. The cooler on the cpu should plug in to the cpu_fan header on the board. The fans in the case should connect to the sys_fan headers. If this doesn't help, let me know.
@@GrayaOverload the cpu_optional slot on the motherboard is that for the fan pump?
@@reymilocuevas3485 I think it is for a fan. At the bottom of the board they have sys_fan_pump, for a pump. Now you could hook what every you want and control it manually.
Please zoom in on the board next time.
Thanks for the feedback. Will try that next time.
did you use both 8+4 cpu power?
Yes, I used both.
Does this mobo comes with PCIe 5?
@@kurukshetra7050 No. B650e would
Can you show how you tested your motherboard and cpu?
Great idea. I will have to do that.
I couldn’t quite tell in your video, when you plugged in the power supply cable for the cpu, did you plug in the 8 pin and then split the other head that’s daisy chained to fill that 4 pin power connector?
@@Sagwafu yes, I plugged in the 8 pin and the 4 split off the other 8pin (4+4)
@@GrayaOverload Awesome thanks, I just used this bundle in my build over the weekend and ended up doing that. It all works :)
So whats the boot time
first boot takes a while, minutes for memory training. After that it is fast like a pc should be. I never timed it as it was so quick after that first boot it wasn't a concern to me or my friend that is using it daily.
Just finished building almost the same computer (cpu cooler and power supply are different) and one of your vids about the motherboard helped me out.
I wasn’t a big fan of how the usb 3 plugs into the motherboard. How did you deal with the back panel of the tower pushing the plug forward? It puts unwanted forward tension on the socket and was stressing me out.
I agree on the USB 3 plug. I hope I understand the question right it is about the USB 3 plug? I tried to get it to a position that I was happy with and plugged it in. Since this was an upgrade for my friend the cable had already been plugged in giving me a big more freedom.
@@GrayaOverload yeah it’s where the usb3 plugs into the motherboard. The angular design of the interior of the tower doesn’t allow me to just slide it in from the opening next to it without folding the cable back over itself. Had to feed from the bottom opening and do some twisting to make it work and not stand out. Thankfully the gpu covers it up so it’s out of sight.
My first ever pc build so I’m excited but nervous about every connection.
Thanks for posting these videos as they were very helpful for a first time builder to iron out the kinks.
No problem. I enjoy building PC. I also enjoy seeing people want to get into building them.
can it be updated to windows 11?
Yes, it can
Do you have an extra 4pin cpu connector thats paired with the top left 4 pin cpu connector thats plugged in?
Yes, I plugged in the 4+4 and the additional 4 pins for the cpu.
But is it needed? @@GrayaOverload
@@MadVillain-qp4qj People have reported back that they have it working with out the extra 4 pin plugged in.
@@GrayaOverload thank you. I just got this combo a few days ago and I'm building my first pc with this and I'm trying my best to figure everything out. Just waiting for the aio and ssd before I power it up. And truthfully, I'm kinda scared to turn it on. 😅
@@MadVillain-qp4qj Don't be scared, it is fun.
