@@Breadyboi2961 check if your monitor is actually above 60hz if it is and your on hdmi that might be the issue and your gonna have to buy a display port and that should fix your issue
Very good tips, make sure also to all the drivers are installed, and if windows is activated, because I'm sure there are some people who don't do that for no reason.
Usually on most prebuilts if its from a prebuilt company (For example Cyberpower or something) will already have Windows activated and drivers installed.
two super helpful things I got from this video I would have never known about. The refresh rate and Ram speeds. Recently bought a new PC and Monitor. You won my sub click.

They will make sure the item is in good condition, calls you to make sure you're at home first, then they will help you assemble the pc and make sure everything works fine. I'm not sure if they still do that but it was a great customer experience.
Really helpful tip to plug the hdmi cable into gpu and not the motherboard, it made me spend more that a week Wondering what i did wrong building my first pc
I've been playing 60hz for 4 months now without realizing I had a 165hz monitor. I didn't really check refresh of it since it was a graduation gift and my old monitor was using 60hz.

I need help. I got a prebuilt from Jawa, and the gpu fans keep making a noise when they spin. I've had the pc for 2 weeks, and the only way to make it stop for like seconds is to tilt the build to the side. Any ideas what it could be and how to solve it?
I know a friend who bought a gaming pc and had the power cables out just enough so it sparked because it was in the sweet spot for on and off... So he lost 1000$ in about 30 secs because he splashee his stuff wity water when it was still on so yea. Also the manufacturer doesnt want the pc back lol
I always check for any important updates before installing software outside of the OS (drivers, BIOS, firmware, security), better to take care of the updates then and there because it might not always play nice with the newest software outside of the OS.
one more thing if you bought lets say a 144 hz monitor and windows doesnt have it on the display setting you need to probably open the monitors settings which will be somewhere around your monitor and put the hz from there.

Im building a pc and my cpu is going to be the ryzen 7 5800x with a rx7600xt with a 1200 dollar budget, should I switch the gpu or cpu and would they bottleneck each other ?
Plugging them to your motherboard will reduce the load on your GPU but it will move the load on to your cpu, performance difference is not that much, except in some cases, just make sure your bios have the option to do that
Thanks for this! Just got a new PC. Wondering the best way to transfer old programs with executables and files to the new PC. (Have some old programs that I love, but are no longer serviced by the companies that created them)
There are ways to clone the contents of a drive to another. But you need some programs and adaptors. Just search on Google, if you can't be bothered, pay a tech shop to do it for you
What could you use the display put on the cpu for? Could it be used to control a monitor who’s sole purpose is like discord and other not so graphics intensive stuff like that? I’m asking so that hypothetically I could use both ports on my gpu for 8k graphics. It’s just a curiosity of mine as to what it could be used for instead of a discorded interface
Me back in February after plugging in my HDMI cord into the motherboard: Why isn't it working? Then again, back then, I didn't know a single thing about PCs aside from what amount of storage space would be most optimal for what I do😂
I have a Ryzen 5 7000 F and a Rx 7800 xt for my First Pc it’s a great working Gaming Pc but my Question is when should I upgrade ? Pls help me out . I love ur videos thanks for the great content 😌 ❤❤
Had a question. Is it worth going for a 2k monitor and pushing beyond my budget or to stick to 1080p monitor. I have an rtx 4060 and I5 12400f. I mostly play battlefield 1 but occasionally also play story games like elden ring, rdr2, last of us and some other. But mostly battlefield 1.
Is there a quick way of checking you have all the necessary drivers installed? Ik there’s Device Manager but it’s not always clear if drivers are up to date?
Device managers, click on the driver information and the update automatically button. Windows analyzes if it has updated drivers. Idk how reliable that is though
Im planning on building a gaming pc for my editing hobby, I will also be using it to film assetto corsa with a pretty good quality system, do you have any ideas on which parts I should focus on the most?

Can’t wait to order my first pc parts tomorrow! I think the parts I picked are good for my price range but I’m not completely sure so if anyone wants to know the specs then say.
I still think it's so dumb that windows doesn't automatically have it at the max refresh rate. We wouldn't buy high refresh rate monitors if we wouldn't use the highest refresh rate.
Because budget computers don't have GPUs, they work on integrated graphics, which means the CPU acts as processor and graphics card. And if you plug the cable into the motherboard, you'd be using that
The refresh rate is actually changed automatically for me, i went to a friend's house, i brought my pc and i connected on his extra monitor and it was alleady at 144hz
That power supply switch will always be off for the first time. Even if you turned it on.

And we need to stop calling it the "I" (eye) position. It's binary, like a computer. It's a 1 or a 0.

That last one is a BIG tip, luckily I remembered to up the refresh rate of my monitor after I built my PC thanks to some of your videos.
I cant go over 60 Hz it wont let me and i dont know why.
@@Breadyboi2961 your GPU may not support it at current resolution
@@Breadyboi2961try a different cable or a lower resolution
@@Breadyboi2961 check if your monitor is actually above 60hz if it is and your on hdmi that might be the issue and your gonna have to buy a display port and that should fix your issue
The switch is a one, not an “i”. It comes from binary one being on and zero being off.
thanks captain obvious
Thanks captain oblivious
Dawg who cares 😭
@ThatWorldWideWeb apparently you bc u reacted to it
Influencers will add deliberate misspellings so they get more comments
Very good tips, make sure also to all the drivers are installed, and if windows is activated, because I'm sure there are some people who don't do that for no reason.
No point in activating windows, and if you need to use kms
Maybe some doesn't have enough money to buy one and don't activate it. It's legal and still too much better than using cracks which are illegal.
Usually on most prebuilts if its from a prebuilt company (For example Cyberpower or something) will already have Windows activated and drivers installed.
the hdmi slot on the motherboard is absolutely cruel, when i first got my pc i thought it was borked right away & had a panic attack
did that too, but i had onboard graphics, so i just thought the build a friend compiled for me was crap
two super helpful things I got from this video I would have never known about. The refresh rate and Ram speeds. Recently bought a new PC and Monitor. You won my sub click.
How do I up the ram speed?
@@rabbitfan8466 enter into your bios and i had to go into advanced then overclock to find the option. Might want to google/youtube how your bios looks like, i'm sure there's a vid somewhere. It's how I found mine.

4. Make sure everything is there
5. Put it on Craig's List

Turn off sticky keys and also install the newest updates is also good things to do, especially updating the chipset and gpu drivers.

To the point with the monitor: I personally have never seen a monitor not being on the maximum herz, when it was plugged in for the first time
Zach i have a question. Why Is there a HDMI port on the mother board when you never use it. I dont understand
Because budget computers don't have GPUs, they work on integrated graphics, which means the CPU acts as processor and graphics card. And if you plug the cable into the motherboard, you'd be using that
i would not turn on xmp because it puts extra stress on your RAM and makes it run hotter
For #3, if the pc is for 4k editing with emphasis on CPU than the GPU, so do we still need to plug the monitor HDMI into the GPU?
The refresh rate is actually changed automatically for me, i went to a friend's house, i brought my pc and i connected on his extra monitor and it was alleady at 144hz
