Everyone: well u see this is the GPU or the graphics card what this does is set your frame rate to a cellular ppg 20 gig frame rate at a speed of 30 ssd speed in an alternate universe through car generation freezing time and making lots of dogs eat grass in the ocean
The dogs eat grass in the ocean part though 😂😂😂
Car Generation
You're talking complete gibberish. Although I would've agreed with you 6 months ago. Now I know about PCIe, SATA, RAID, Ryzen, TITAN, RTX, ATX, DDR4, GDDR6, 32bit, 64bit and a load more.
@@peari8676 well now I know a lot as well and I can’t agree with myself anymore lol I know what this guy is talking about now
Damn i just started learning about PC, well the components and things like that and i agree with your first comment, but hopefully as time goes on I’ll be disagreeing 😂
@@Thebestoneever_ trust me you will haha it gets easier
R.I.P to those who came
here by seeing " beginners guide"
Yes RIP me :/
@@egginafryingpan 😂
I need a real beginners guide PLEASE
This is a beginners guide u just need to know the basic name from the components
lol me
Here are the contents of a pc described as body parts
Cpu- The brain, it makes the pc a pc.
Psu (power supply)- The heart, gives power to everything.
Motherboard- The body, all things are connected to the motherboard and needs a decent psu to live, nothing to weak or powerful.
Gpu(graphics card)- Really I can't compare it to a body part, it makes games run smooth in short.
RAM- memory space for the brain to use all at once
Ssd or hard disk- Storage for all of your things like games, pictures, videos, etc.
Note: ram is to run multiple things at once and ssd or Hard disks are for space for things you aren't using.
That's how I see pc components so I don't confuse new people to pc's.
i see the GPU as how good your eyes are lol
This helped out so much thank you
I have a question. I’m looking for a graphics card to run BO3 in particular. Does anyone have any recommendations? I don’t care for max settings or anything. As long as it can run on fair textures, and run smooth, I’ll be good. Thanks!
Maybe GPU can be compared to muscles
This was perfect
I still have no clue where to start
there are websites that can find you parts
Jhow _ what websites
@@vjhow i went to the link u have me and it says I do not have access to it... And 404 error code

youll get the hang of it if you start alking to experienced buildrs watch some videos and do research
@@resident8935 that's what the video is called 😂😂😂😂
It’s like you took the word right out of my brain
Just had my friend help me build my first pc. I didn’t understand any of it when we were building it but after just a month I noticed there were some things I wish I knew before.
He did a hell of a job with tucking and tying my wires. I think if I ever build myself one again I’ll try and go at it by myself.

Who else has the money to easily get a midrange gaming PC but like me, has not got one yet because they have no idea where to start.
Ive been looking into getting/ building a PC for months and still have no clue where to start
Literally me this whole past week, I set a 2k budget for my self to get something not mediocre. But jesus there are SO many names and models of every single shit im lost af 😵
Philip Jnz 2000 is more than enough you will have a nice pc
I set myself limit of $2000 AUD max and yeah no progress for me either, just so much to consider and I don’t want to make any purchases that I will regret.
Same
Power supply = vigor
Motherboard = strength
Cpu = intelligence
Gpu = faith
Ram = endurance
Ssd or hard drive = arcane
You’ll be lucky enough to have space
So... case is important, but only once you have everything else purchased and then you can figure out that everything is compatible... that way you can always have room in the box... yes?

When PC gamer gives me recommendation,
Me: "what language are you speaking?!"
Absolutely brilliant video. After finally getting a job I've been able to look properly into PC building, and after doing some quick research on the basics of terms came to CZcams to learn a couple more of the details. Your video was recommended first, and I'm glad it was because the way everything actually fits together makes way more sense now and I feel a lot more confident with understanding not only what each piece does, but how one section can affect another and work alongside it! Thank You!
Any luck yet?
I liked the video, but you seemed to have entirely ignored a very important aspect when choosing your parts and that is compatibility issues. I've never done this before and I am inexperienced in it, but a lot of experienced people have told me that some parts CAN be incompatible with each other and it can be a very real issue. I don't know if it's true, but you might seeing as you made a video on building a pc. Thoughts?
I looked at the parts on his table and I was like "holy hell what are you building R2-D2 in your goddamn garage???"
😂🤣😅
Dude legit did a great job explaining everything,I know nothing about pc but i really got an itch to build one here lately. Every video I’ve watched has just been like “this part real good,this part go here,click link below ok byeeeee!” Where as this guy explains what the parts are,what they do,what they’re capable of,why you should or shouldn’t use them,and why they’re important.This really helped make up my mind to build a pc. I feel like I’ve learned something.
Thank you for this, I needed the education and am having a tough time with repair people. I was out of gaming for years and when things started going wrong I ended up getting fleeced. This is a huge help and very well done! ❤❤❤
Him: "buying a graphics card is pretty simple now days". wow that didnt age well
why what happened
crypto miners flooded the market and now all the graphics cards are in extremely short supply
@@CAFilms420 so crypto needs to get out of the trend now to have the prices normal again?
yep

Such a great vid, I’ve been looking forward to building a gaming pc but I didn’t know what parts to get and this vid helped me a lot, Thank You!👍🏼
Great video! I’ve just recently started looking into PCs and I’ve managed to find all the pc parts that I want (and feel will work great together) but the only thing I’m having trouble with is the motherboard and case(but that should be easy once I find the motherboard that I want).

This definitely helped me understand the main components needed to build my own PC. Thank you!
I’m trying to find out what stuff the things in a pc do and how much of it you could need, I’m even more confused. Great vid tho
There are 7 core components for a PC, figure out what you need and search part by part to see which one is the best value/meets your needs the best. Watch a lot of pc builds of every budget. It'll help to expand your knowledge.

Thank you. I'm getting into pc gaming and have been looking into buying my first PC. These tips have helped me alot
Have learned so much from your videos. Now have all my components for a 'mid range' build sitting beside me ready for a full day off so I can really focus on it.... Should be a giggle, 49 and worked with computers most of my life (head of QA for a very large well known company) and had pre-builds all my life... Lets see how much I can mess this up!
Thank you.
You explain everything in details.
Sir, you are great
Well structured video, very helpful. Thank you!
This will help me with my first pc build! Thanks for posting this video!
A month ago i was totally confused but after some researching, I kinda understand him now, wow
This is really helpful. More videos like this please. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
thanks this video helped me a lot i didn't understand what half of this meant till now like ram cpu and all that but this video helped me understand that keep up the good work i subbed
Thank you, I actually have an idea of what I’m looking for now :)

I’m getting my first ever PC for my 12th birthday. I’m super excited and this video really helped!
Thank you for the advice I have ordered the same components you advised in this video!
“Buying is really simple these days” Yeah THOSE days
Thank you SOOO much!! I'm building my dream setup and trying to learn everything, I felt so comfortable watching this and you made all the confusing stuff easy to understand haha!!
Hey there! As a fellow tech enthusiast, I completely understand the importance of keeping our gaming setups clean and dust-free. In my experience, using a compressed air capsule like the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule has been a game-changer. Its powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities make it a versatile tool for maintaining a spotless environment in your desk, car, and beyond. With features like high-quality filters and efficient storage, it's definitely worth considering! Happy gaming and keep those components dust-free! 😄
Thanks, this helps a lot!
This was so helpful thank you so much!
This deserves so much more views! You made this so easy to understand!
this was easy :(
this actually helped alot, thanks :0 i can finally start saving up and stop asking my sister if i can borrow her pc all the time
Awesome, this is the kinda guide i was looking for. Thank you kind sir!
This is greatly helping me with building my first PC
This is very helpful. I'm planning to build my own pc in the future and I didn't expect the prices to be high. I'm only using a laptop with an i35550u but it's kinda bearable I guess. I just hope I can still use it to play even after updates on Valorant
I will be getting a new system of some description eventually. Until then, I am still using my 9-year old laptop... a gen 3 i7 with 8GB of ram and a GT 640! It's soldiering on and trying to stay standing when I throw a game at it... but it sweats terribly! 🤣🔥
Bro sid u build it yet, if so, u got any tips
So helpful! Thank you
I didn't even know where to start so this was so great and easy to understand
THANK YOU
I basically learned like nothing other than why certain parts are important. I didn’t learn how to build it. How the stuff works. Or why or how I can compare the prices or what fits what.
Thanks this video really helped me out
Looked up your video because I’m looking to switch from console to PC and I never touched a PC unless it was for school/work. Seems easy enough with your videos
Getting a pc pre built so this video helps me a lot so I now know what I’m getting inside of the pc thanks man 🔥🙏

Hey there, {{3}}! As a fellow tech enthusiast, I totally understand the importance of keeping our desktops clean and dust-free. Have you ever considered using the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule? It's a great tool for maintaining a spotless environment on your desk and in your car. With powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities, it's definitely worth checking out! Plus, the price is reasonable compared to other tool brands. Happy cleaning!

Don't buy it in december👎!!
No! Dont buy in decemeber the top comment says dont! It’ll cost way more than usual because of christmas!
Buy it in Black Friday, prices should drop by then.
Really helpful, thank you Marcus
thanks for this video I has helped me a lot with deciding on what GPU I am going to get and helped me understand what to consider
1:50, “buying 1 is pretty simple these days”. XD
Been out of stock everywhere 4 the past 6 months😢
My brain feels massive after watching this 🧠
thanks bro now i know everything i need to know about parts of a gaming pc :)
I have no idea what I’m doing but this video really helped. Thank you!
I love how he got sponsored and didn't only talk about nvidia for graphics cards
2:06
Did you not watch?
I watched the time stamp, he does talk about amd too though right?
@@joenicolas4133 He literally turns around and talks about an AMD lmfao
He said didn’t ONLY talk about nvidia. Can you people read?
Gaming pc parts have doubled/tripled in cost over the past year (cries)
I love this video, its so helpful.
Keep up the good work.
This was so helpful thank you so much
Every time I go to pick a build for parts, I pick a basic one that’s around £600 and then I start picking more parts and before you know it, it’s like £1500 when I’m only wanting to spend under £1000. Should I just go with the basic and will that be okay? Because every part just sounds cool so I pick the middle ones and even then, they slowly stack up. ):
Trying to learn about gaming PCs not just how to build them. This was very useful.
I love these videos, i already know this stuff but we always learn something
Great video choom. Very informational as someone who has a PC but I don't know much about the parts.
1 minute into video
Me: ight imma head out
14 year old here waiting until quarantine over for a job so I can save up for a pc :) I play on a laptop for now and I’m really good at pc gaming so I can’t wait to be able to get a pc ;)
Good luck!
I am 15 and i am earning and saving money for a pc and a phone will probably get both end of this year and will do youtube and competitive wish me luck
Thx it was super helpful.
Thanks for the video this really helped
I turn around for one second to grab my phone
Now I’m lost
This is the third time I'm watching this and I still don't understand it haha
Guess I'll stick with my laptop
This helps alot! it now makes me understand why my pc runs so slow and gives me bad fps, But the problem about all of this is it's expensive and we dont have that much money to pay for. But thank you and keep up the good work!it now
Doubt anyone will see my comment but it helped a lot to take notes when you don’t really know stuff like me, very useful and you don’t HAVE to remember everything he says. Very useful video thank you pc man
Helpful, what about the sound card? Is it that important?
I would recommend a USB sound card if you have a headset. But you don’t need one, it’s more of a quality of life deal
The built in sound is very good on most if not all motherboards these days.
Does anybody else hear the really quiet music
Its background music so its not just quiet
No shit, Sherlock.
Thx man needed the advice
This is so helpful. I'm trying to get away from console and transition to pc gaming but I have no clue to make one. This is so helpful
Hi looking for some advice both my grandsons have saved a grand to get a gaming pc what would you recommend and best company in the uk cheers maz
@James Heinrich That is if they dont mess up the parts.
Thanks for actually explaining instead of flexing your big tech brain lmao
I've been looking into buying my first PC and this is just the video I was looking for lol
very informative thanks. :)
Why is this so expensive I’m 12 and I found all of the stuff you need and it was up to $2,300 😂
The most minimum computer I've seen people get is... for free. There are pc builds for any budget as long as you're willing to accept used, for new, they got for as low as 300$.
Twxi yea but a $300 pc won’t run shit
Scruntie I got a custom 500$ pc that runs great
Then you are trying to spend too much. I started my first PC build with about $900. It wasn't much but it ran the games I wanted to play. Since you are 12 I would stick to console gaming for now and wait until you get a job in high school. I saved up until my senior year to get my PC.
Wes Bugg nice pfp
A video like this was why I subscribed. I don’t have a gaming pc, and never have. Should I build my own? I do have experience with circuits and wires, but I’ve been told building a PC is almost like legos. Basically, should I try to build one even though I’m new?
yes i did it as well definitely do it
It's very simple, just a bit nervey the first time! Would always recommend building yourself
I dont know anything about building pcs any vid recommendations on how to build one?
Love the vid!!! Keep it up😀👍
All i ever wanted was a kawaii settup :,)
And how is that going? :,)
