Forget your Linus, your Jayzzz, your GamerNexus, this guy here is what you need to build a PC.
Thanks, appreciate that
1st two i agree but do like gamernexus and well think its anthony from linus's. but you good sir have a well earned sub
and forget the verge
Linus is sh*t now.. all he cares about now is his merchandise and sponsor..
I totally agree , this video was instructive, pleasant, even relaxing .
This is the best, most in depth build guide I have ever watched. Everything was explained so much clearer than any other guide. Fantastic job!

@@valorantfans1429 now that was the polar opposite of a great review

Just wanted to say this is the best build guide I've seen on RUclips. Thank you for making such high-quality and detailed content.
I agree
Yes, excellent!!
Agreed.
I built my pc using this channel, the very best walkthrough, unlike the cringe young pc vloggers
@@ihuggedapandatwice Totally. I saved up for months to build my rig and spent all my downtime at work researching. Christopher is the only RUclipsr who walks you through ALL aspects of building and he does so in great detail.
I didn't realize i just watched a full movie and I'm not even building a pc anytime soon. That was the most superb build guide!
This video was literally a lifesaver. Last weekend, I used it nearly step by step to complete my first build in 10 years! Thank you for making this and being so thorough where other build guides were not.
Glad it helped!
I'm an old timer gamer at 53 years old. Started gaming in the 70's with Pong hooked up to the old black & white TV, moved on to Commodore and Atari. First PC game that hooked me was in the 80's with Microsoft's 1st version of it's Flight Sim which was just green wire frame graphics. Bought my last pre-built PC in 2000, a Falcon Northwest, and started building my own after that. It's been 4 or 5 years since I built my last one so I'm watching videos to get caught up on the things I've missed since then. Decided to watch your build tutorial due to the fact that you are using some of the same components that I just purchased the other day, mainly the MSI MEG Unify X570 and the Meshify 2 case. My point in this long and drawn out comment is that this is the most thorough build guide I've ever seen. Well done man and thank you.
Thanks, much appreciated
Been watching assembly guides all weekend to prep for my first build tomorrow and this is by far the clearest, most comprehensive guide I've seen. Thank you so much for making this dude!
You're the best Christopher, love watching your videos because they're so well explained and informative. I built my last PC to one of your videos and it turned out great.
Thank you so much! I just bought this case as I’ve always wanted a fractal case. You’re build helped me so much with my new pc!
I know how to build a PC but I watched the entire thing because man I wish I would have seen this before my first build..I’m sure you really helped a lot of people with how in depth you went with everything..things that seem like no brainers to veteran builders can be huge problems and confusing to new builders..great job my guy!!
Build guides like this are exactly what first time builders and veterans alike need. Genuinely the best and most informative build guides on RUclips. Consider me a fan 👍🏻
What an amazing video. You clearly thought out everything before building it. You were clear, stuck to each topic and didn't try to be funny or add memes. This is extremely helpful for my upcoming 5900x build, and I just want to thank you for taking the time to make this video. I hope your channel grows considerably - it's well deserved.
The fact that you showed us a configuration that you weren’t even using in your build is excellent. Thank you for being so detailed.
Absolutely phenomenal dedication. This is the most in-depth guide I have ever seen. Credit to you.
Thanks
@@ChristopherFlannigan ruclips.net/video/QE4ML91PZLE/видео.html at 50:30 you tilt the AIO up backwards "lifting it backwards" is there a screw or soemthing that allows it? Mine either goes in and locks, or gotta take it all out, no way I can "lift it backwards" and have it rest backwards like that you do in the video??
Thank you Christopher! This is such a patient and thoroughly thought-through instruction video. I am very lucky to access your support. I think what really helps is that this video is calm and straight-forward. The focus is really just to help in a matter-of-fact way. It is not trying to make a show or a performance, the focus is on learning to build. Refreshing.
Thank you for taking the time to put this together. I just finished a very similar build and followed your lead almost step by step. Extremely helpful and filled with detail!
Just bought this case. It's amazing. The cooling options are endless. Keep up the great work.
As a first time PC builder, I've seen about 4 different build videos and this is by far the best one. Very informative, well detailed, and easy to follow. Everything a first time builder needs to know.
Wow, thanks!
Just built my first PC without much prior knowledge at all. I had a similar build, and this guide made the process very comfortable. Just wanted to say thank you and keep making content to help other new builders. You are a legend!
Just bought this case and in the process of building a pc. This video was so helpful. It's my first build and I never had a case with a fan hub so I was confused with the wiring of it. Thank you for making this video 2 YEARS AGO. I'm sure it's going to continue to help people for years to come.
One of the best 2 hours video on youtube. Thanks for this massive guide!
Glad it helped!
Just finished my first PC build and this video was the only guide I used for it. The video was very thorough and I never once felt like I needed to google anything or check any other vids. Very clear, explained everything thoughtfully. Very pleased with my build, thanks for this video.
Thank you so much for doing this video!! I bought the Meshify 2 XL and your video saved me a ton of time and unneeded headaches in building it, especially since it was my first time building a PC from start to finish. I appreciate all the hard work you put in this video and especially taking the time to explain every step. This is hands down the best step by step guide I have seen.
I just built my first PC last weekend; I followed this video step by step during the entire process more or less and it was tremendously helpful. I highly suggest this to anyone looking for an in depth guide.
Hands down the best PC build guide available. As someone completely new to building a custom PC, this was the only video I've found which leads you by the hand every step of the way, giving you an understanding of every component. Massive thanks!
Used this video to build my first new computer in a decade. I found it by searching meshify 2 build on Google as that was my case choice. I was delighted to see I had purchased the same motherboard so it made my build so easy to follow and use. Thank you so much! My PC is up and running because of your help!
Used this guide to build my new System. Thank you so much for this clear and in depth guide. Perfectly executed :)
I haven’t watched the whole video yet but I really love the fact that he explains everything every single detail. Thank you for that
Glad you enjoyed it!
Christopher - I just built my first PC, using this case, with your help. Thank you so much for the detailed explanation - it made the process so much easier. Cheers!
I love everything about this guide. The case, the process, the walkthrough, your name, your accent ... everything! Great job!
I just wanted to say thank you for the incredibly detailed guide! I just finished my monster Meshify 2 XL build and it's running flawlessly. I usually have to jump between videos to get a full build, but you made it super easy from beginning to end.
Also, the few haters that gave this video a thumbs down can piss off. This was a solid production and super informative. Not sure was you can dislike.
as someone attempting my first build , this was fantastic !! i have watched a few of these and have always had more questions than answers. Not this time, and im sold on the case as well !!! thank you , thank you , thank you
A note of thanks for this exhaustive build guide, especially going the extra mile to show how the storage configuration would look like. This caused me to pick up the Meshify 2 which I put together yesterday, hitting pause all the way through this video. I do builds so infrequently and dealing with a new case layout is always a headache, so this was such a massive help. Thanks!
I found this video when I was researching cases. It helped me pick my case for my build and plan my build, and when I build next week, I'm sure I'll refer back to it throughout the process. I haven't built my own PC since the mid 2000s, but now I'm looking forward to it. Excellent video, the best build video I've seen.
Thanks
Just wanted to say that this video was a MASSIVE help for a first time builder like me. Built my first pc in this case 2 days ago. Took me quite a bit longer since I didn't have the same mobo / cpu cooler etc so had to look up where to connect things in the manuals. But this gave me a lot of confidence with how to handle the case and plug stuff in especially. Thank you very much for this exceptional video.
I swear, these videos are so relaxing I have considered putting them on while going to sleep.
i think you mean they put you to sleep because they are boring, and if he is going to read from a script at least have in printed out in front of himself, it's creates a personal attachment to your viewers
Simply the best PC building tutorials on the internet. Genuine step by step instruction, unlike other "tutorials" which leave you asking "wait, how did he get to that step?" and no commercial flash or rambling on about other subjects either. Just step by step instruction, I love the channel.
I used your video as a guide for my first ever build, which used a Fractal Meshify 2. This was a huge help to me. I now have a brand new working PC. Thanks so much.
Earned a sub for how highly detailed and in-depth this guide was, especially describing how to properly install the front panel connectors and putting the case into storage. Amazing work
Absolutely Brilliant Chris. I brought this same case (and a Aorus Motherboard) thinking I could build this one my own. Quickly realised I was out of my depth, but your video really really helped me immensely. I owe you a pint or two, as I could not have completed this without your help. VERY MUCH appreciated.
Great walk through the case (part I was most interested in). The reset seems very comprehensive as well. Well done.
Great work. This guide was very informative while being easy to follow at the same time. This was much better than other build guides i've seen.
Glad it helped!
Amazing video Chris! I bought a meshify 2 case, and went to youtube to see what builds were out there. By chance you built the same PC as all the parts I bought. Beautiful build and stats so excited to assemble this beast!
Love the section markers. Super helpful! This made my first build much more approachable and it worked like a charm (when combined with my MB instruction, which had of course important notes and instructions for various SATA / M.2 SSD configurations).
I want to thank you from all my heart! that was a very useful video, I've managed to build my first PC thanks to it. I would literally not know where to start without it.
Hey Chris, I just wanted to say thank you for helping me build a PC. I built my first PC in this same case and this video is the only reason it is currently running. I hope RUclips rewards you for your amazing content
Well, it took me half the day but I did it and my new pc turned on with zero issues the first try! Thank you, I had the same case and used this video extensively during my build. You are a natural teacher.
Hands down, you are the best person to watch doing computer builds! I am so thankful for your guidance! You make it possible for me to do my own first build with confidence!
It's nice to see a video like this. I like 20min pc techporn builds as much as the next guy but as somebody who has never build one before this is far more usefull. Extra bonus is the fact that i'm planning to finally build one myself with this case, so perfect timing. Thanks for taking the time and doing it step by step.
I've watched this video a million times and successfully built my first PC. Thank you!
Awesome guide especially for beginners. But even as an more advanced system builder it is just as awesome to have every detail presented and be prepared what's to come if someone chooses this cool case. Just love tha calm talking without a hurry or seeming like it has been sped up.
This was the best build video I’ve seen. Very thorough.
Even though I've built several PCs over the last 20 years so I have plenty experience, I played this video today as I built my new PC in a Meshify 2 and it helped me to do everything carefully and quickly and not forget any important step. Great video!
I build my own computers since 1998, and I was here just for a review of the case, which I'm planning to buy.
Still I enjoyed watching your video. Very clear and informative. Good job.
Great to hear!
I was buying computer parts the end of last year 2021 having never built a computer before and in the midst of that I stumbled upon your page and guide after looking for videos on the case I was interested in (Fractal Meshify 2). Lo and behold I have just finished my first computer build early 2022 from following your guide! Thank you so much for this, it's been a great help to me and I have for sure hit the like and follow buttons, keep it up. ;)
I wanted to thank you SO MUCH for this guide. I built my last rig 12 years ago, and the mobo died -- so it came time to build a new setup. Along with a little research on the side, I followed this guide pretty much to the T, and you got me through it... getting everything right the first time 👍👍
I happened to find your guide because I had bought the same case, and whoa, what a beauty. Thanks again!
Great guide, clear, to the point, with excellent view of what each step entails. I built my first PC 25+ years ago and the last build was about 8 years ago. This brings back so many memories, time to build a new one me thinks.
I have the same case, it's really amazing! I didn't even realise its full potential until I saw your video
This is, and by far, the best building guide on youtube. Thanks really helped me.
Hey Chris, I noticed most of these comments are a while back - so for everybody out there: I had no clue of pc building and just finished my very first one. And I promise you, this video will be the best you find on the internet to guide you.
You did not only tell me WHAT to do but also WHY it is important and what the result will be. I am amazed by your structure, experience and ability to break down complex instructions in easy step-by-step explanations.
Just wanted to say THANK YOU so much, this was the most deserved subscription/like a video has ever gotten from me. You are the best, keep going!
Thumbs up for a very detailed look at all the case features. It's so annoying when people make a system and don't show off all the features that someone with a different system might use. This was so informative!
Of the dozens and dozens of PC-building tutorials I have seen, this is easily the best explained, most detailed and comprehensive one. Funnily enough, I am planning quite a similiar build (same MB, same Case, beQuiet Fans, although in a custom loop), so that's a bonus.
Glad it helped!
Chris this is an incredible guide. I just finished my new build in the Meshify 2 and you helped me the entire way. Great work and thank you.
Found your video when searching for "Meshify 2 Fan Setup", picked the vid since I was building with the same chassis but Asus MOBO/RTX 3070TI (different cooler etc).
It made my build alot easier, very much appreciated!
I just found your channel and I have to say you make some of the most detailed and helpful pc build guides I've seen by far. Thanks
For all the other review channels, this is the only channel I have found where you can easily visualise the scale of the cases in contrast to the other parts.
The level of detail is incredible! Thank You!
Amazingly informative video in terms of explaining the details of this case. And it's not even a review of Meshify 2. Your case walkthrough gave me more info than full on reviews from other people, great job!
A fantastic guide! You have my most sincere thanks, I was able to setup my new PC in less than 3 hours (as a first-timer), all thanks to your clear, calm instructions.
What can I say that hasn;t already been said below? Just calm, sensible, straightforward do-job instruction. This has got me out of a couple of rabbit-holes I was driven into by other excessively dynamic presenters. Thanks Chris, just subbed on the strength of this one, looking forward to more of the same.
This is fracking amazing. I am going to get my new hardware in the next few days and it also includes the same case. Been 6 years or so since I last build together a whole system. This will help immensely. Thank you very much.
I have never built a PC before. We are talking total newb-level entry in the PC building world here. But with your video, I was able to methodically build (and trouble-shoot!) over the course of one day! Thank you so, so much for your helpful guide and advice! She is running perfectly!
I just ordered all of my computer parts last night. I'm going to use this video to build it. Thank you!
Does it matter which usb port I use to plug my bootable windows usb drive into the back?
especially the first part about dismantling the case was very enlightening, Thank you so much!
This is the best PC build video/channel I have seen on You tube. Fantastic job. British excellence at its best. Absolutely wonderful. Well done indeed.
Great video and most complete guide I've ever seen for Meshify 2. Actually this video made me get one right away. Thanks for that dedication.
Thanks for this build guide, and your meticulous attention to detail. I just built up a new machine using this case and relied heavily upon this guide.
Yea.... this is the best build video I have found hands down. If you are reading this to understand the Fractal meshify 2 case or something and thats it like I was - stick around he goes through everything and the video covers it all. Its amazing.
I have been meaning to come back to this video to say THANK YOU!!! No way I would have build my PC with the details of this video.. YOu are aweseom!
Thank you sir. Basically everything you need to know in one video. I will be building my first solo build. Last time I had help from a friend and parts were not researched well. I will have this video playing next to me while I build.
I’ve never seen a review this detailed before that pretty much covers everything about a product in such a simple and easy way that even beginners can fully understand. Seriously though amazing work man, I’ll gladly sub and in fact I wish I could sub 10 times. You deserve way more for the effort in these videos. Amazing review!
This is the most In depth PC build guide video i have ever watched on RUclips. If before this i have some knowledge but 0% confidence to assemble my own PC, now after watching this, i would atleast have 80% confidence to build it myself because i have more knowledge now. Thank you! This video for sure is what everyone needs to build their first PC! 😊👍🖥️ You are awesome man.
Thanks, appreciate this
Used this guide for my Meshify 2 build. Thank you for this great guide, made my first build a breeze.
Great quality content, Chris! Been watching your channel everyday. Keep it mate.
Love this video, very informative. I built my pc back in September 2021 using this video, then suddenly I had some problems and watching this video again solved my problems!
Hey man I really wanted to thank you for making this guide. Growing up poor, I've been vicariously living thru every tech RUclipsr and their cool setups for over a decade.
I thought one day when I have the money to build a custom computer, that I would know exactly what to do and every single component.
13 years later that moment comes and I totally froze. This video was an absolute lifesaver and better than anything guide or tutorial I've ever watched! The precise labeling on every cable and how you explain what it is and what it does.
It might've taken me 5 hours, but I HAVE A BUILD IVE BEEN DREAMING OF FOR 13 YEARS!! I had a grin on my face every second and every mistake I made.
Thank you for this amazing video!! Most in depth and really helped me out not feel like a total noob! Time to finally open a game on my computer for the first time ever :)
Fantastic video mate, love how you roll
Getting ready to do a build in this case. Brilliant video, much appreciated.
Wow, I'm already familiar with PC building, but I'd say that this is an absolutely insane guide for newcomers, nice work
This was soooo helpful. I just got a meshify 2 xl and it was pretty much the same. This was my first build and I went step by step and got it done. Thank you Christopher!
I finished my first ever build (minus GPU...) on the weekend and had chosen the Meshify 2 as my case. This video was extremely helpful, thank you so much.
Without doubt the best PC build guide on the net !! Clear , concise, clarity, and very educational and helped me enormously in building my new system. Thank you so much and keep up the fantastic work and content you provide.
BTW just wanted to say this is an excellent guide. You do a really good job explaining things without making the audience feel dumb. Thanks for doing this
Impressive work with these guides Christopher, thanks!
Glad you like them!
Wish I could like this video multiple times!! Revisiting back to install an additional SSD was straightforward/quick and easy, and I appreciated the level of detail and tips in this video for when I built my first PC
Hands down the best person to make build tutorials! Im going to be coming back to this video when I get my final parts.
Thumbs up for this video. Will try to build my first pc in the near future, will definitely watch this video again!
ruclips.net/video/HKUghovSxvw/видео.html
This is the best pc building video i ever see in youtube. Nice work
Aboslutely awesome guide, really enjoy the pace of the video and the pace at which you talk.. really helps me understand a point before moving onto the next one! Watched a bunch of a PC channels and guides but ultimately settled on yours for no other reason than it's the best one there is. Thank you
This was extremely useful while building my new PC! Thanks for this super in-depth guide
