    Christopher, my 13 year old son and I were assembling his computer from the parts we purchased from Microcenter. The lack of resources available in the product documentation and even the articles/videos I found made the process very long and frustrating...note: I have my master's in EE (about 25 years ago, although I haven't done tech work for a while). And then I found this video...you are absolutely brilliant!!! I wish I had this video first...I feel the 4 hours we spent before finding your video were basically wasted as we leveraged your video from the beginning to make sure we didn't do anything wrong. And, we did, in fact, find a few minor things which would have been very difficult to debug without your instructions. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I also joined your service!

I only just found your time stamps after 2 days of having my build put together and there is apparently more I need to do.

    Christopher, I massively appreciate your INCREDIBLY DETAILED guide!! I had watched some build guides and assumed I was competent. I was going to do my build with a friend, but because we had a COVID scare, my wife and I are doing a hard quarantine. I started building by myself, and felt utterly completely lost and anxious. Some build videos had terrible angles, explaining what they were "doing"--but what they were "doing" was off screen!! Your build was far more advanced than what I was going for (ASUS x570 / AMD 3700x [stock cooling] / RTX 2060 S / 2x8 Ballistix 3600 RAM / 500gb m.2 / 1tb SATA) but this was incredibly helpful. The tip to remove that HDD bay was good advice, even if I was scared to take out the fans lol (since I'd never worked with so many cables before hahah). Thanks again for such a super detailed and step-by-step guide, and done at a perfectly reasonably pace. I was so scared getting into this but man you got me thru it.

    I really appreciate the quality of this video. I feel like I completely understand all the pieces of my computer (at least in terms of building haha) because of you. It's such a large difference between "k just plug in your wires to your mobo" and "this is what every single wire does and what it needs to connect to, also a good order to do things, etc." Also appreciate the additional "heres what to do when you've got something showing up on a screen".

    Your video was a lifesaver! Thanks for the great job, it really made my new pc build possible. I enjoyed much of the video, however I do have some feedback; I was struggling to understand the whole motherboard and pins, I wish it were easier to point out. I know it is difficult to keep the camera focused and not blocked by hands, but maybe next time you can circle the specific pins to make it more clear. Again, the video was otherwise great and saved me lots of time and stress, it was just that one part that had me frustrated. One again, thank you so much for the in depth video and I look forward to learning more from you!!! :)

    If you have enough tube to reach, radiator should be flipped so that the tubes are at the bottoms of the case, that way you wont have any air pockets in the pump.

      @@ChristopherFlannigan We ran into one major problem and that was the monitor never recognized the PC when we were trying to boot up from the boot disk. A bit of research suggested we remove the RAM and reset it, which we did, and that resolved the issue. Perhaps in a future beginner's video you might mention this (I know there are 400-odd other things that could go wrong on a build), but perhaps just a quick "and if you don't see the Windows logo or your screen is dark, try X, Y, and Z." Still...that issue aside, it wouldn't be working without your awesome tutorial.

      Timothy you should rewatch the GN video and followup video because you didn't understand it, nor should you spread your new found 'knowledge' like a twat.
      Gravity? You're going to be fighting gravity tubes bottom or tubes up. It's the air in the loop that's the problem.

    • @Xanth1um
      @Xanth1um Před 3 lety

      Nolan Hansen it's best to work with gravity not against it. So having them down wouldn't shorten its life. Thus you can run into pump noise issues and/or air pockets in the radiator since the tubes are at the top instead of the bottom to help the pump with better flow.
