    this video changed my life - building my own computer turned me from a kid interested in tech into a full-on nerd/tinkerer.
    without this video I would probably be a completely different person. it sounds extreme, but literally 99% of my dreams and aspirations stem from me just spending such an absurd amount of time tinkering with computers/code.
    thank you, Austin Evans.

    3 IMPORTANT THINGS THAT WERE NOT MENTIONED IN VIDEO:
    1) Ensure that the power supply you're installing has enough power for the other components you're installing, namely the graphics card. Also consider whether or not you will want to overclock your CPU. If you power supply cannot deliver the power necessary, you may experience frequent crashes and poor performance. I would recommend a 600 watt power supply for most gaming PC's, unless you want less performance but better energy conservation.
    2) Most high profile graphics cards (like the one he used) will generate a lot of heat and can fry your motherboard if you're not careful. You may need to install an additional fan on the top of your desktop for increased air circulation and heat transfer. Sadly, I've learned this from experience.
    3) The hard drive is very sensitive to physical shock (e.g. dropping it, shaking it, etc.) You should treat this component as if it was a newborn baby. Also, I would recommend installing a 2nd hard drive for backup (a RAID enclosure is good for this.) Or if you have an online file backup system, that would also suffice. Additional though, you can combine multiple hard disks to boost data transfer speed.
    I would also highly recommend installing a program to monitor various aspects of your PC while it's running, such as CPU core temperatures, CPU usage, fan speeds, etc.
    Also, these 2 things were mentioned in the video, however I feel like they require greater emphasis:
    ALWAYS ensure that there is a layer of thermal paste between the CPU and the heat sink. His came pre-applied, but you may have to buy thermal paste separately and apply it yourself if it did not come pre-applied.
    ALWAYS take precautions to discharge any static electricity from your body, computer, work space, tools, etc. before handling the motherboard, as it is very sensitive to electrical shock. A good way to double-check and ensure you are static free is to touch the computers power supply first (assuming it's already been installed.) This will act as a chassis ground and safely discharge any static electricity from your body.

    • @TheMetalGearSolid3
      @TheMetalGearSolid3 10 лет назад +6

      Everybody new to building computers, LISTEN TO THIS GUY. If you accidentally rub your socks on carpet and you touch your graphics card or anything else you could destroy everything, Buy an Anti-Static wrist band for like £2 and don't risk anything.

    • @Bryan11210
      @Bryan11210 10 лет назад +1

      TheMetalGearSolid3 I had on socks on carpet, and was fine. You just plug in the psu, switch it off, and mount it in the case. That gives a solid electrical ground.

      Definately, A pc to run those games at higher standards than the ps4 or xbox one should only cost about $400 or $300 at least. The prices i mentioned above and the quality settings can give you above 100 fps on all, but on high settings, a $400 pc can deliver excellent performance.

      If anything it's a bit of overkill. At the moment, games don't really utilise the hyperthreading that the i7 boasts, but that may change in the future - especially in the next generation of games. It may be worth buying a bit more RAM, but 8GB is fine for gaming. 60FPS in Ultra for you, my friend!

    • @ner-0
      @ner-0 10 лет назад

      Yes!I think I might go with 16 GB of ram,as for the CPU,what would you recommend, or should I just stick with the i7?

    • @SafetyLucas
      @SafetyLucas 10 лет назад +1

      You could always go with a 256 bit graphics card. But as the others said more RAM is not bad either. I am fairly certain though that if you have an SSD then you can govern a part of it as RAM. (Don't do this with a hard drive, its too slow) that way you could expand to 32Gb without a problem. I might be wrong though so don't quote me. I am actually planning a build with almost exactly the same setup.

      Kobi Bellos Looks great but you really dont need the 212 evo as you cant overclock with that chip, the stock cooler will do just fine. Also if you can strech your budget a little further, you should get a R9 380 instead for the GPU and a cheap 120gb SSD will also help you out alot in loading programs and starting windows.

      The heatsink comes with Thermal Paste, you won't need to applie any thermal paste with a stock cooler whether it's Intel or AMD. If you are using a aftermarket cooler such as Cooler Master, Corsair, NZXT and more, all of the aftermarket coolers should comes with thermal paste but not preapplied, cut open the bag of thermal paste and squeeze a rice sized amount of it and DO NOT SPREAD IT. Put your CPU cooler and it will spread the thermal paste by itself when you are tightening down the Cooler.
