I like your video because you build the pc and then show it booting up. Most people here know how to build a PC but setting it up is easily forgetful. Excellent job, most people demonstrating pc builds need to take note from you mate. 👏
This video is fantastic. I haven't built a PC in a long time nor have I kept up much with PC hardware, so this was a great way to get caught up. Love the presentation, and the part where you went through the BIOS was really helpful. Thanks!
Thanks Chris, Brilliant content mate, and love the Bios settings, not a lot of content creators show that, it's refreshing to see someone finally show the optimal settings in the bios for the build.
In Turkey, this system costs about 80000,00 TL. impossible to get. I still watch your videos without getting bored. very detailed. thank you. for your labor.
Great content! Pretty much the build I was planning, thanks for putting the pieces together and giving your insight! As well as numbers and few benchmarks :D This is amazing Christopher, thanks a ton.
Great video and presentation, you rarely find a guide this explinatory and precise. Congrats for the video!!! Just subscribed because of how well you explain in details and how good you capture every important move.
It isn't, in heavy CPU loads: ruclips.net/video/vcUuJALqcg8/видео.html If you want a 7900X, get an AIO cooler, not an air cooler. Not to mention that if you look at the GPU installation, the back plate of the GPU is right up against the CPU cooler. This will likely impede air flow to the cpu and might affect gpu cooling. This build has other issues, like improper thermal paste spread on the cpu and installation of the M.2 drive on the chipset lanes, not the cpu lanes which adds a small amount of latency. None of these issues are as big as using an air cooler for the 7900X but you get the point.
Does Asrock b650 pg lightning cpu performance presets use negative or positive curve optimizer? I tried the "PBO, TJmax 85c, curve optimizer, -40mv" profile cb23 crashes and rebooted pc right away...I disabled the profile and aer back my CO settings. CPU: 7800x3d
Hi Chris - What do you do with all these PC's once they've been built? Do you make them to order? Really glad I've found the channel - I'm finding it invaluable while I try to build my PC 🙂
@@ChristopherFlannigan Thanks for getting back to me. I thought it must be something like that - i had a mental image of mountains of high end PCs filling up your house!😂 anyway - really excellent content and very easy instructions to follow - many thanks for sharing and keep up the great work! (you've got a new subber!)
How much is the build? I do wish you'd clearly state it vocally. Unless you did and I'm half asleep. Just a quick ballpark figure in dollars and pounds even. Then I can know if I should go ahead. I wonder if this is much of an improvement over the 5800x3d?
I don't add them up anymore as the figure varies so much, people just go annoyed over the price because they can't find the item at the price I got it at
@@ChristopherFlannigan I thought that might be the case and that's frustrating as even a ballpark figure. Well what was this build? Are you looking at more than £2 1/2 grand? Thanks for the great videos.
Christopher, you sound as Irish as your name... and that's a good thing! 😁👍 I'm quite certain that if this were my build that I'd also choose the ASRock X670E PG Lightning but I'd for sure choose the R7-7800X3D because I'm more of high-end gamer than anything else. I would also use my existing AMD Wraith Prism cooler because I wouldn't be looking forward to having to literally take the socket apart. Alas, I have an R7-5800X3D mounted on an ASRock X570 Pro4 with 64GB of DDR4-3600 so I'm not able to justify the upgrade cost as there's not a single game in the world that the R7-5800X3D can't easily handle, especially since I game at 4K with an RX 7900 XTX. Gaming at high resolution means that my video card is my limiting factor, not my CPU. I estimate that I should get another five years or so out of my current setup. I'm really excited to know what will be available for me then as I never stop paying attention to the PC parts market, looking for bargains that I can't refuse. (It's why I have 64GB of RAM, 5.5TB of SSD space and over 60TB of HDD space). I'm thankful to have a server supertower case to hold it all and a 1kW PSU to power it all. 😆
Hey always a nice surprise to hear another Northern Irish accent! Did you need extra brackets for the cooler to work? It went real quick from "all am4 coolers work" to "our am4 coolers will need a new bracket/screws" on most manufacturers. I really wanted to NZXT Z93 but unsure if it will work now as its not even on AMD's listed as compatible :/ How does the fan sound while air cooling btw?
I know there is the posibility of wifi but which would be the best part/adapter for this build that would allow the use of wifi. As a first time builder this guide is perfect for me to follow, but its the one thing holding me back from building it. Keep up the good work.
Hi chris I am a big fan of your fishing videos I know it's not the right channel the swivel seat you have on your rib any good have you got a link seat and bracket thank you davey
It's just a basic swivel seat bolted to the original bench seat. Don't know the exact model as I picked it up from Walmart on holiday, but it was the cheapest one they sold. Does the job and breaks up sitting on the tubes.
about to be doing first build 7900x asus tuf x670e rtx 3080 32gb ram i feel this video will help me allthough heard some tricky things with asus tuf x670e we will see how that goes
My biggest question I have is: does the 7900X make the case fans ramp up and down constantly as my 5800X seems to do on my ASUS Prime X470-Pro? Because that has been bugging me for the longest time. So again, out of the box, did you experience any case fan ramping?
I'm building my new PC. AMD platform very tricky. Then using ASRock X670E PG Lightning will be better use Asus Strix B650E which has much more (More PCIex5 m2 slots, Hiend audio, More Hi speed ports and etc )then this cheap board. RAM should eat least 6000 mhz it is AMD requirements. Please, don't use air cooler for this type of CPU. The best option Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360. Good luck in your built!
Thanks so much for this amazing vid Christopher. I did my 1st build following your guide. I have a quick question for you. I have an asrock x670e steel legend and a DDR 5 by GSkill that's on the VQL list. Using the Expo profile for the 3rd day after I got the build up & running, I got a BSOD about 1 hour after waking up the PC from a sleep with code 50 (which is related to RAM). I run a memtest86 with the JEDEC profile and 4 passes came out with 0 errors. Should I try increasing the RAM voltage to 1.4v with the expo profile or do you think I have a bad RAM? Any hints would be appreciated.
I am looking to build this pc but im looking for an alternative motherboard. Would you have any recommendations for other motherboards that co.uld fit this build?
Hello friend! Would you say the Deepcool Assassin III would be adequate for a moderately overclocked 7900x that will be used for gaming + moderate video rendering/encoding?
Is atx12v2 necessary? I dont have it on my psu? But also cant boot this god damn thing same setup as yours in video everything connected same and cpu and ram red led black screen
I would pay you to build my PC. Sadly I don't live in UK 😄 Was 5 years since I built a computer, I would be very confused about all the cables to plug in. But I will have to try anyway.
@@ChristopherFlannigan I think it's too nerve wrecking when you just do it every 5 years haha. Im always nervous. Always something that f's up.. like hard to get some connector in or something else. ;P
Hi i have Gigabyte x670 gaming X. There are 2x 8pins slots to power CPU on this motherboard. My CPU is Ryzen 9 7900 x. And my question is: i need connect 2 cables to power up this CPU or one is enought? I dont need to overclocking this CPU. Please help anybody.
Dude... spread the thermal paste, for crying out loud! The Ryzen 7000 series ramp up to 95C and the better you cool them, the higher the performance. You should probably go with an AIO liquid cooler for the 7900X and 7950X. In full core loads the CPU will likely throttle with this air cooler and with your poor technique of applying thermal paste. For the 7600X and 7700X you might be okay though.
@@ChristopherFlannigan I agree about laptop vs desktop. Just look at the Mac Studio with M1 Ultra: -$5400 (with 64GB and 2tb ssd) -unable to run Windows properly -terrible for gaming -gpu is weak, vs RTX 3080 -not upgradable, or repairable -runs ARM cpu from a cell phone It's basically a fat Mac Mini, for $5400. A disposable and dead-end machine. A $2200 Windows PC will just *destroy* the Mac Studio.

God! I just realized that I am practically outdated after seeing AM5 slot no longer use PGA type cpu.
I'm glad to see the back of it. Pulled to many CPU's out of the socket attached to the cpu cooler
I have problem with first boot. Screen is black and cpu and dram red diode led is on ?
is the motherboard a good choice? works well?
The best setup ASRock Mobo and ryzen 9 7900❤❤❤❤
Why did you install the nvme drive through chipset?
That struck me as odd as well.
Why didn't you put the m.2 into the gen 5 socket directly under the cpu?
Hey always a nice surprise to hear another Northern Irish accent!
Did you need extra brackets for the cooler to work? It went real quick from "all am4 coolers work" to "our am4 coolers will need a new bracket/screws" on most manufacturers.
I really wanted to NZXT Z93 but unsure if it will work now as its not even on AMD's listed as compatible :/
How does the fan sound while air cooling btw?
is this cooler enough for a 7950x ?
I haven't tested this, but TDP is 250W
One Remark about the Bios Update. It looks like that AMD has included Bios Flashback (flashing Bios without CPU/RAM) in every AM5 Motherboard now.
Nice build
Thanks!
I know there is the posibility of wifi but which would be the best part/adapter for this build that would allow the use of wifi. As a first time builder this guide is perfect for me to follow, but its the one thing holding me back from building it. Keep up the good work.

Hi Chris, is the x1 PCI slot covered by your GPU with this board? I'm a content creator and I need all the expansion slots available. Cheers!
Do you need the 4 pin power cable?
Good Video Chris, Gymshark… what’s your gym routine… spin off channel lol :)
You never know, I'll keep the idea in mind if I run out of PC build ideas
Is it a mistake to install a gen 4 m.2 into a gen 5 slot?
the backround sound could be from a Movie from Jean Claude Van Damme 🤣
Can you fit a 420 AIO in the top of that case with that MB?
Specifically, arctic liquid freezer 3 420 .
Ehhhh… idk all imma say is there’s a 7000 series x3d coming out sometime next year so I’d wait for that maybe..?
You can always upgrade and sell the old one
I think people are getting to the stage were they have waited enough to be honest.
That's the problem with tech, there is always something new just around the corner
Does this motherboard support 4K? or is it up to? Thats what It said when I did a research on it.
Cpu light flashing 😕 any idea what i could dome wrong
Have the cash, sourced the parts but which adapter is best for wifi connectivity? First timer noob builder here.
