NERVOUS BUT DOING IT
This was an amazingly well done video. Simple, to the point, very easy to understand. Good job, sir!
Superb. Everything was clear regarding power supply installation and connections going to Motherboard power, CPU power, SATA drives.
Thanks. I was a little confused about PCIe connectors.
Very well worded video, quick and straight to the point. Awesome. Just ordered a Motherboard, PSU and CPU upgrade for the time and have no clue what I would've been doing. Cheers for the vid mate!
2:57 you feel old ... I learned computer programming on a mainframe with cobol, fortran, and pascal. PCs for home use were just coming out.
Thank you so much, I couldn’t find a video of a power supply with all the cables bunched up in the psu, and you didn’t use many tech words.
Simple and informative, thank you for this.
I’m literally looking for a vid to see it and this is the best one because I was struggling
I love thay you are still answering questions for people, thanks dude.
This is actually a really useful video, thanks!
Clear and concise
Thank you for helping out all those new PC builders!
For real man, I've started following this channel lately and honestly am amazed the way he explains everything, I came from the dual channel explanation video
You were more helpful then the video the company sent me for this.
Nice you got my old heat sink, but the double fan version. I love that boi
this channel deserves millions of subs and views so underrated
No it doesn't
I agree with u💯
Instructions was soo clear that you could do this with the sound off. Proper good job mate 👍
I love your humor bro
Thank you very much for this video!!! I e never done this before and your video and voice gave me the confidence to try .
And I succeeded ! Sometimes the only obstacle to success is ourselves and fear.
True !!!
great video, you're a funny dude man
So helpful!!!
Great video.
Very helpful thanks
I just left my PC with geek squad because I was afraid of this!!?? Why!?!?
This looks so easy! Very well explained and easy to understand.
I could be enjoying my new GTX 4070 right now but bcz installation was free I figured sure why not have them do it? And the tech told me that the power supply requires the entire computer to be taken apart and takes a long long time whereas the GPU and memory are easy to install. This looks pretty easy too.
I’m going to Best Buy tomorrow to pickup my stuff and do it myself. I don’t want to wait several more days.
How did it go? Im building mine in like a week and am super excited
great video
your voice pretty much sounds like Seymour Skinner's. rly cool ;)
Never never play music while you are talking
If you do though play it at a low volume
Womp womp
Always play music
Honestly I like it.
Never tell the camera man what to do with his video 😂
Thank you sm
instructions clear followed everything pc doesnt turn on lol tried countless things for over 6 hours no results.
dude I'm taring to upgrade an ASUS desktop - DESTOP - 71N8E6J with a new graphic card and power supply can you help me with that please

how. do I know where my cpu cord goes on Mt motherboard
I have a ryzen 7 5800x
Whit 3600mhz ram
If i put xmp on will it broke my cpu or have it nothing to do whit it? I mean on the amd site it says its run on 3200mhz so iam a bit scared to set it to 3600mhz but now i have 2100mhz or something😂 can i turn xmp on whitout breaking my cpu?
XMP mode essentially runs your RAM at its fastest possible speed without overclocking it. Turning it on should be completely safe. Funny you should mention though, ever since I changed the positions if my RAM module, my computer won't start up if I have XMP mode on! I'm trying to look into it.
@@Torqcx i will try it❤️
I desperately need help! It's been over 14 years since I built my last PC, (unfortunately for health reasons) I have a beautiful box from 2010, acrylic glass and LED hoses, but the connections (initials/names) are quite different from the current motherboard, I can't understand how make the last connections to the motherboard and 1 ASRock B550-HDV and I have no idea how to connect the wires. If you send photos.or.names.of the cables, would it be possible for someone to help me so I can finally get my PC working?!
so i have this other connector on my molex connector its like another cable and its sitting there empty on my pc is that for RGB? on the case fans
Can you see where it's connecting to in the chassis anywhere? It could be for an LED somewhere on it, without any other information.
What happens if your mother board requires 16 pins? I have one 8 pin cpu connector and one 8 pcie connector plugged into the graphics card. Do I not need anything in the other 8?
Are you saying your motherboard has a 16-pin CPU slot? If so, it depends on what CPU you have; generally speaking you should only need an 8-pin CPU power connector to power it up, but check your specs first, obviously.
thankyouu
My motherboard have 16pin cpu power and my power supply has also 16pin cpu power, m using i7 13 gen so should i use 16pin or only just 8 pin cpu power?
Without anymore info, it sounds like that CPU only requires an 8-pin connector. That being said, you could go ahead and just plug all of the pins in regardless, the system should only use what it needs to.
So, if I have fans connecting to the CPU but don't have any hard drives, I should just connect fans through the drivers cable and let the rest all alone?
The fact that you don't have hard drives shouldn't change how you should plug your fans in.
I don't have 8 pins for the cpu?
Bruh just watched the 2014 video and now saw this
I moved my pc into my closet and made a little gaming room but there’s no outlets in there. So I plugged my power supply cord into a surge protector that’s also plugged into a surge protector thwt is plugged into the wall and it won’t turn on. My guess is it’s not getting enough power right?
Yes, I would avoid chaining surge protectors.
@@Torqcx if I got an extended power cord and just sent it straight to the outlet would that fix my issue ?
@@Prvda999 probably! Try it out
are there advantages choosing a semi modular over a modular?
Not that I'm aware of, no.
So what if you do all of this, everything turns on, all the fans are running. But for some reason when you plug your monitor, keyboard, and mouse none of them are detected and nothing is showing. This has been my dilemma for a while and no matter who I ask no one can figure out what’s wrong
That means the computer is failing to boot, make sure the RAM you have is working correctly and compatible with your system, try starting the system up with minimal peripherals, etc.
@@TorqcxI can't get an hdmi picture with my pc monitor. The second one connected to my Playstation 4 works just fine. I'm thinking something is not plugged in correctly to the right ports or I'm missing a cable with my PSU. If you see this, can I get your thoughts?
@@the90sbrain More information would be needed, it doesn't SOUND like a power supply issue with that info alone, but it could be the graphics card (maybe if it weren't getting enough power?)
@@Torqcx Yeah my PSU turns on and everything. I'm just having hdmi display issues currently. I read up that a bad PSU or issues with it can cause signal display issues as well. I am replacing my old hdmi cable today, hopefully it will fix the issue. Thank you for responding, it means a lot. Unless you want to be updated of when it's fixed, I got it from here. Stay blessed man.
My cheapie pc only connects the 24 pin to the mother and the cpu cable. No fans or other drives connected at all!! Pretty bare bones
I found out why it cant get in bc the aigo power supply was to big i gotta buy a new one
I need to remove it so I just do this the other way around :D
Installing a psu is the most annoying part of a pc of its not modular especially in a old office pc
mine display isn't turning on, whats should I check?
If the computer is turning on but the display is not getting a signal, it usually doesn't necessarily mean the power supply is the culprit. Did your system work and boot up with a previous power supply? I'd check your graphics card and RAM.
jan 2, 2024 thanks for this video I successfully installed a PSU to my pc❤❤
I need a little bit of help I don’t know where my fan thing plug is I’m lost someone help I just want my pc back on
May you be more specific by "fan thing plug?"
Please make how to install motherboard video
I did! You may watch it here: ruclips.net/video/7t9S_Ymwo4A/видео.html
@@Torqcx thanks
all powersupplys have to face down?
Generally yes, they should be facing whatever direction their fan is oriented in where there is a vent on the chassis.
I start my pc an it cuts off in 2 seconds
do i need ro install it on mother board?
Power supplies need to be plugged into the motherboard in order for the computer to function if that is what you're asking, yes.
I dont have a gpu cable
are all 500w power supplies same dimension?
All standard ATX power supplies should be able to fit into the slot of any non-micro chassis, yes.
Thanks
Can I unscrew the hdd and ssd ?and
You sure can!
Very Indian, I love it!
You didn't cover the case pins. That's the hard part.
I need help so bad
If you can't install a power supply you shouldn't be taking off the side of your computer
I have a 400w power supply that i need to install in my sff desktop pc.. help 🥲
