I built my first computer 2 years ago with your help Carey, and now I'm building one for my dad for Christmas.
I built my computer based on your videos with no other experience whatsoever. Thank you!
+Andy Ramirez I did too, bout 4 years ago!!
+Andy Ramirez I'm about to do that! In 2 days! I cannot wait. Well, I guess I can wait - 2 days.
awesome. good luck!
Andy Ramirez
It took me about total 8 hours because I was afraid I was doing something wrong, but everything worked out!! So psyched. Moving files right now from old computer to new computer.
Gilmer 9999 Thats awesome. Congrats!
Carey, your videos allowed me to build my PC 2 years ago. I wanted to just say thank you! I am building a SKYLAKE build next week.
Thank you sir. Your videos in general, and this one specifically just let me build my first computer! I'm so excited!
Just to make sure you know, what makes you great is how slow you go. Other people rip through the installation. Getting the time to see what cables you have in your hand, the tips you give on what's useless or not, that's where your value shines. You actually take the time, every time, to explain things like we know nothing, which I didnt.
Thank you so much for being so patient in your videos, even though you've done it all so many times!
I can imagine people doing this for the first time watching the video, but I can't understand why I keep watching it since I build computers all the time. You did a great job!
the longest video I've seen on RUclips till the end. Bravo Mr. pc man, you know how to keep your audience
The number one key in building your own machine & the best tip i ever got was to take your time. Carey says this in many of his build vids...enjoy the build process. There is so much information out there if you would happen to get stuck.
I know how to build a computer, i just like watching Carey build them
Same haha
+Seth S. (Gliphs) Same
+Tech Gamer ME TOO
I partially built my computer...my mistake, going with a fully modular PSU (HX750i) an not being too familiar with all of the cords. Had to let an expert finish building my computer! :D
Haha, glad to know I'm not the only one.
i like watching Carey building computers as i built my own with my son who knows a little about computers and it is so interesting and fun as well to do a build as you explane everything so well.
carey is the bob ross of computers
"And here, we put a happy little HDD... Maybe he has a little SSD friend... Maybe they both connect to a lovely motherboard."
"You can manage your cables however you want to, this is your PC."
"If you use a screwdriver like mine, you gotta be careful with the tip, you don't want to force anything. Just geeently screw everything in place."
Hey Carey I am an old hillbilly out of the hills of N.E. Ga. I watched this video more times than I care to mention. First time I saw this was about a year and a half ago. I started looking for the mother board first. So I happened upon this fellow who had one for sale. Motherboard, I5 chip and the fan for $100. For me buying used electric stuff is like pissing on a electric fence. You never know what your going to get. But he did give me his word that it worked. And if I was not happy with it he would refund my money. He went as far as to say IF I needed help to call him. Took me a while to get some memory, SSD hard drive and case and a Corse Air power supply. Not so long ago my main computer, the power supply went out taking with it the motherboard. My nephew built if for me back around 2013. He moved on some years back an I could not stand to throw out the old computer case. So I used it for this build even though I had bought a new Corse Air 200. So once again I watched your video while building this Skylake computer. I had two things that stressed me. One was putting the heat sink paste on the chip and fan. But I did watch you in another video explaining how to do that, so it was not all that bad. Had a hell of a time getting the fan pushed into the mother board. I did as you said took my time and did Not force anything. This old computer case some of the wires were not labeled. I took my time and traced where each wire went and matched up the slots. And it worked out. After I got it all put together I was as nervous as a long tail cat on porch of rocking chairs. I flipped the switch and Nothing happened. God I was mad. Then I realized the power strip was not turned on. I flipped that switch and pushed the power button on the computer and it came to life. I gave it a minute or two and the screen lit up. Checked the bios. Then I got my windows 10 installed. And went to youtube and played a few video's. And it works, the video the sound everything works even played a DVD. The biggest thing this will be used for is some video editing. I got some new video capture equipment ordered. So I will see how that works once it gets here. I know you have been told this before but in this case it is true, I could Not have done this with out your help. And I do Thank You !. In the past I have changed out a hard drive, a DVD rom and perhaps memory. As far as building a New build, Never considered it. I did try and build one from old junk parts. As best I could tell the mother board came out when Windows XP was around. It could not handle Windows 10. And I was Not going to spend $100 for a copy of XP. So when I started this new build I was a bit nervous.
I got to tell you, when it came to life, Damn that made me feel good. I want to build another one. A new one with all new everything. A new more up to date computer, guess what I already have the case. The only things I did not include in this build was the graphic card, the Evga GTX 980, be nice to have but not sure I need it. And I did not install a wifi card. All together I have about $300 invested. I was not sure about the mother board, so to start out I only got 8 gigs of ram. Since I did not use the Corse Air case I was not sure you wanted a video. Anyways thanks again.
with my C+ certification and boatload of pc building knowledge happening around high school, my info was dated and fell to the cliche: "if you dont use it, ya lose it". you brought me right back up to speed brother and i cant thank you enough. i am very interested in purchasing one of the plaque you have seen above as my z170 skylake gtx 970 wouldnt have been possible with out you. i appreciate everything you do for this community
I built this PC two years ago with the help of Carey's video. It's been running error free ever since. Great computer with more than enough speed. Thanks Carey!!!
I think the most valuable information gathered from these videos is the correct technique in which to throw away boxes and manuals.
Kidding. These are extremely helpful and watching you makes the process seem much less intimidating. Great job!
i made mine system 4 years ago. and your video was the only thing which inspired me all by myself.
doing a first time build tomorrow, I'm really glad I found a video like this that goes into detail and is filled with insightful advice, thank you for making this video
howd the build go
+OnionsHave Ogres very good, I followed this video step by step basically. it was very intimidating at first but it's really simple and satisfying once it turns on and gets going!
I got so carried away with your clear & fluent tutorials that I was transfixed to the screen for over 2 hours!! Your language is very easy to understand too. Keep it up God Bless
Carey. I personally want to thank you for teaching me how to make a functioning computer. I would of never been able to make this without you!
Thank you Carey!!!!
I love how you used a 750W power supply. Those can satisfy many requirements for PC’s these days. It baffles me seeing an average PC with a 1000-1500W Power supply.
I am so glad I stumbled upon your channel. You are the only one who has explained everything, even the BIOS setup. I now have the confidence to try one myself, so I will start small and work my way up. I'll leave photos of my build on your Facebook page. Look out, the lean mean computer building machine is ready to start. Thank you for your great videos.
I used this as a guide for my PC even if the components are different, thank you so much!!!! You have no idea how I love that there is no trash music in the background distracting you from the build.
i'm about to build my own updated skylake gaming rig next week. it'll be my second rig i've built and its all thanks to you sir and a video of yours i found about 4 years ago. thanks carey!
I love how he takes his time and enunciates everything very clearly. This is perfect for a first time builder like myself. You earned yourself a subscriber! Excellent work!
Thank for your videos! Ever since I started watching I've really gotten into computers and built my first one last year and now I tinker and customize builds as a hobby thanks to you!
I also admit that i enjoy just watching the videos. I always pick up some tidbit of knowledge I may have missed earlier. I really enjoyed that long pause where nothing seemed to be happening. We have all gone through that Oh Oh moment many times. Makes that moment of triumph even sweeter when the system does initialize and boot. But that sinking feeling is hard to describe unless a builder has gone through it. Thanks again for another great video!
You speak clearly, to the point, amiably, interestingly. Definitely what one would hope to find. You got my subscription. Thanks for these awesome videos.
I'm waiting on my i7-4790k to come in the mail, then I will build my first pc. Your videos have really helped me understand computer building, thanks.
+Coy Miller How'd it go?
Very Well, it booted first try and is a beast! it was a fun experience.
+Coy Miller good job. I just built one this January, I love it.
I've been thinking about getting a new gaming pc since my last one os 7+ years old. First time I watched your video it was 2 days ago and now instead of buying a prebuilt pc, I'm building my own for the first time. I will be using one of your videos as a guide to build it. Thank you.
This was THE most helpful video I came across for my build. Very detailed video and it allowed me (someone with no prior PC building experience) to set up my PC first try, issue free. Thank you!
Carey would make a great actor. I could see him in movies. Great job, thanks!
Unbelievably helpful, I am a bit nervous about building my first gaming pc but this has given me the confidence.
i just wanted to say thank you for the very in depth videos that you provide, i built my first computer a couple days a go and thanks to your very detail videos it was a breez. thank you and keep up the awesome work and videos.
I'm actually using my old CX600 from 2013, it's got well over 10K hours of runtime and still clicks along perfectly
Thank you Carey for sharing such valuable information with us I just built my very first pc and I am loving it.
Thank you so so much - I was very nervous about getting the power pins in the right way around and your description of whethter positive and negative matter etc was very reassuring given how much these things cost. And even tho i could have done it on my own it was just so reassuring to watch you do it and then repeat. What started out as an attempt to add a M2 Intell 600p 512GB SSD to my GIgabyte 55P motherboard has resulted in an $850 rebuild but it was going to have to happen at some stage. Thanks again! Time well spent.
Thank you so much for this video Carey!
I just built my first pc which had similar components to those in this video and following along your steps has helped me greatly. You explain everything very well.
My pc build is running and everythings working now, im so happy :)
IMPRESSIVE!!!!!
I am going to build my PC, and I watched ALOT of videos, but non of them helped me to understand, this one helped alot, THANKS!!!!!!
Thanks for another well performed build Carey.
Because of your insight and thoroughness on building PC's, After watching several of your videos, I felt very confident in doing my first PC build and I installed Windows 7 Pro 64Bit, and had no problems.
My son was so impressed with my new build, we did a new build together for him.
So we both thank you for your efforts and your videos. Best Regards....
+Steve Bolio Awesome!
+Steve Bolio that is awesome to teach your kid how to. (at least do it with him lol) but that is what I like to see because this generation is becoming very lazy... sadly, I am apart of this generation but I am learning to be a mechanic because my dad owns his own offroad shop and he is teaching me the ropes on what to do and how to do it. But that is very great to hear! one less lazy person in this generation! :D
IRN-BRU!!! Hell yeah! Good on you for trying it.
Love the videos!
Much love from Scotland.
I've gone crazy. I'm building my first computer using mostly this build except with a 4.0 Skylake and a watercooler. And instead of the 4 tetrabyte WD, I went with a 1 T EVO Samsung drive. And the Corsair 450D case.
Cost - $1900.
Edit: 05.18.2016 - I watched the whole video. Excellent. My build is about to begin, but after watching your video, I need another SATA cable since my build is very similar to this. I'm going to go to the local microcenter to get the cable.
Thank you this video really helped me get some intuition for how this is done.
Thank you very much carey, i built my first ever pc last night and it booted first time. Thank you for the education and fun. Great teaching and easy to watch. Masssive thumbs up.
so excited to start my build. 3 more days just waiting for the last batch of orders to arrive.
Carey.. thank you. Your videos have helped/inspired me to build my own rig.
i builded my third pc and it all started with your videos. Thank you!
All my parts are arriving today, first timd building a computer!
Many thanks for this video, I especially like that you show things like checking it posts, flashing the BIOS, the initial parts of Windows installation etc. Most other build videos on RUclips skip over that kind of stuff ('cos apparently it isn't sexy or something like that). I'll be building my first PC shortly (Skylake) and this video will be my go-to guide.
Great video Carey. My next build is going to be inspired by this build. Skylake it is!
this guy is just so awesome. He explains everything so well!
You have no idea how much this helped me out. I even picked up some really good tips off of you! Thanks so much! :D
I enjoy watching these videos.
Also watching from Scotland, Irn Bru gets its name as it was marketed as containing Iron in it that made you as strong as the girders that hold up the Forth Rail Bridge. It does contain some trace amounts of iron! It cures hangovers so you can see why it's number one!
Ah! That explains it! Cheers!
man realy i just found your video because i have Z270-HD3P motherboard to and i bought a nzxt s340 elite case just wanted to replace my old case and i was confused about how to install all thing and your video is unbelivable i just figured your channel and its realy educational keep up good work mate and hi from turkey

Wasabi D no issues
What a great video,has given me a lot more confidence in doing my first proper build. Great, well spoken guy aswell. Thumbs up.
When the majority of the cases are all black, they should ship black IO shield aswell. My OCD kicks in this part......
+Ibrahim Aurakzai I agree!
+Ibrahim Aurakzai And that my friends is why man invented powder coat, spray paint, and plastidip
evilwoodchuck yet the companies don't use these inventions....
+Ibrahim Aurakzai My IO Shield is black yeah :D
Asrock Z170 Gaming k4 For The Win
+Ibrahim Aurakzai well ofc you could argue that looks better... But do you honstly look at your back of your PC all time time? ;)
Hi Carey, I build machines pretty often & have a few sucessful builds under my belt. I think that you do a fantastic build & put the point across admirably.also I think your vids are excellent keep up the good work. Cheers mate.
I cant wait for that windows 10 video :) building my PC right now thanks to you and your videos.
I just wanted to say, thank you Carey Holzman. I just built this computer, except for the following changes:
1. 16 instead of 32 Ram
2. WD 4 TB changed to 250 EVO Samsung SSD
3. Blue ray 14 instead of 16 - they made a mistake and I decided to just make them refund the difference.
4. CPU is 4.0 instead of 3.4
5. Watercooler Corsair H80IGT - it is the 80 and it is the GT is all I know.
6. Corsair 450D Obsidian Case.
Problems I ran into but not because you steered me wrong.
1. I bought the wrong SATA cable and had to go back and get the SATA 3 instead of 2.
2. My front fan wasn't working. I had it plugged in incorrectly.
3. Struggled mightily getting the two fans and radiator correctly placed.
4. Well, I messed up on my wires placement and probably need to clean it up more than most people.
Everything worked pretty much except the one fan and it was corrected pretty quickly. When the motherboard booted up, I was so relieved.
Thanks again. I did not video any of it, but I took about 15 pictures. I am thinking of putting them in a video and narrating it. If I do, I'll send you the video. If I don't I'll send you the pictures.
Oh, and I watched more than one of your videos and also watched the one you did on watercooler installation. I think I overbuilt, because I'm not overclocking, but I wanted something that I wouldn't be wanting to replace in 4-5 years.
The SATA 3 and SATA 2 cables are the same - all just SATA. Noticed, he reused an old cable? He did't said "make sure it is SATA 3". Rule of thumb - if cables are incompatible - they change the connector shape!
BTW A guy did a speed test "just to make sure", google it if you like, using both "SATA 2 cable" and SATA 3 cable", and he got exact same speed.
Михаил Найденов
I am no expert, but the sata 2 cables did not work. I tried them and tried them. They did not plug in.
When I got the sata 3 cables, it worked like a charm.
That's strange. ATM, I am using my 10 years old SATA cables from my old PC just fine.
hey I just wanted to take a moment and say thank you for your videos and sharing some good clean install information the rest of my components for my gaming PC build will be here tomorrow I will post a picture and I've learned a lot from watching your videos thank you again for sharing
Carey, you are awesome. I built my first computer based on your videos. Thank you for making these videos.
I have a degree as an IT Admin. Thank you for such a wonderful show. I am going to build a skylake. Thanks so much!
Irn Bru bottle? Subscribed! It's our national hangover remedy.
Great video, I feel much more at ease about doing the wiring now!
Just finished my build because of you!
Very much enjoy watching that gaming rig build. New sub here and have been watching quite a few of your videos as well the ones on NeweggTV of your builds and learning quite a bit so can get my first gaming rig built.
After watching the video I felt confident enough to build the Skylake computer with a couple of changes. I am using a 250 Gig Samsung SSD and a 1 TB WD HDD. This thing is super quiet and super fast! I am not a techie but had no trouble with the build. I installed Windows 10 full version. I don't know how to have downloads go to the HDD though. I am afraid that my SSD will fill up. I hope you do a video on how to do this. I built my old computer about 8 years ago and wanted to have the latest. Thanks for the videos!
What a boss, Carey. Excellent tutorial. (Better cams for shooting it tho, eh.)
I'm about to build my first PC, and even though I've replaced parts before and all that jazz, I like to see all the tips and tricks!
This man is genius. Well done Sir!
Your videos are very good. You remind me of a Leo Laporte type in that you are very well spoken and give detailed explanations.
I have just built my computer following this video, must have missed the bit where you installed the cable for the cpu. Anyway I installed it. Couldn't work out what to do with the PCI cable until I watched this, as I am just using onboard graphics and sound for awhile. My computer restarted itself about 3 times before finding anything, also even though I have the exact same motherboard, I had to press F12 to get to the same screen, hitting DEL did nothing except make me think my keyboard wasn't working at first... This is the second computer I have built last one about 8 years ago. Stocked when it turned on and worked...
This man is savage, I like his attitude.
I'm building my computer next week and its a skylake, nowhere else I could trust with skylake builds so I checked your channel and boom. Getting a 6600k and gtx970. Ill try to share my build pics to yah
After all the help from your video's over in England I have built my self and also my Girlfriend for Christmas and its perfect
Awesome work! Thanks a million. We need you.
ive never built a pc, but im planning to. im going to get all the same parts u used in this video to make stuff simpler :) and also because ive done my research and i love this build
Hello Carey,
Always nice to see you build a computer and explain it for people who are new to it so compliments. But maybe it is an idea with a next build to explain a bit more about the new NVME ssd's. Here in the Netherlands especially the Samsung 950 Pro is getting very populair also with the not pro users. I guess that this is the same in America but I am not sure about that so maybe an interesting item for one of coming video's.
Greetings from Roel.
Love your videos! You're amazing and so helpful.
Gary--Big kudos for going into detail were most tutorials go into "fast motion". This is a huge help for rank first timers and the intimidating number of wires we face. Also, where did you get that turntable. I'm building my first computer in a Case Labs SMA-8 it I could really use the lazy Susan concept to speed up the process. Thanks again for the excellent teaching.
Man, that Lazy Susan could've been useful during the Cosmos II build.
This video is very helpful, I am building my first PC in March 2016. I like how you tried Irn Bru (I'm from Scotland)
Much respect from Scotland
+ZakMuir They also sell Irn Bru in Canada in the large grocery stores. I buy it occasionally or Jamaican ginger beer. Canada gets a lot of international foods.
ZakMuir
A little bit more. But we get premium pops that cost more too like Stewart's. Weird flavors like bubble gum too.
Thank You! !!!!! Me and my Dad are going to build a computer together. You gave a very descriptive tutorial on how to build one. Wont mess up on this build :) NICE VID!
I also LOVE computers!!!!
Nice bro me 2 but my dad dont care about pc's i have to build it alone or with a friend
cable management is always the tricky part.
I have a SATA cable Cthulu. About 30 of them lined up, bent in half, and rubber banded.
I have read about the idea behind form factor used by Gigabyte with the H170 boards - it's standard ATX length but it's not standard ATX width - they're all shorter by about 1/2 - 3/4 inch - Gigabyte says on their site it is to help accommodate them (to be used) in a wide variety of cases. (Again why I do not know you would have to ask Gigabyte - but that seems to be the way they seem to be going with things)
I went for the Corsair hx 750i platinum series power supply because my budget allowed and as you say, don't cheap out on a power supply.
I love how careful you are and then all the other tech tubers are like "Meh just slap it on there!!!!!" Lol XD
From what I have heard, it is Gigabyte that is out of spec in regard of the hole for the MB mounting screw, that number 5 in your video. I have not tested that my self though.
I don't think solid state components need a an anti static shield, at least not as long as they're designed that way. The PCIE version of the solid state storage might use the anti static packaging though
the intro swag walk-in had me like DAYUM
This video is fantastic, thank you! Going to take a whack at building my own PC tonight.
love the video very useful information
Probably gonna build this one if I have a chance to
thank you. although i've built a computer in the past, this really helped a bunch.
irn-bru is pronounced iron-brew and I am drinking it right now. I also made my computer after watching your videos! :D
You are very likeable to watch! Thanx and keep on Building, regards from The Netherlands Carey.
great video bro
1:00:05 i love how the PC is so fast, before the flag are connected together, it goes on to the boot screen!!
great video
