I just have to say that after following you for the last few years you guys always manage to be a couple of steps ahead of what my next PC idea will be which I find amazing. I haven't built a new rig in about 8 years and have decided that 2023 is about time to start again thanks to your incredible content. Thank you for being so informative and enjoyable to watch. Keep up the fantastic work. I wish I had your job,you guys make this stuff look so much fun!
as an old guy trying to figure out what motherboard to pick this really helped thank you
BRO THIS VIDEO WAS POSTED RIGHT AFTER I HAD TO BUY A NEW MOTHERBOARD 😭😭😭
True that my gee
RIGGT AFTER U BOUGHT A FULL BUILD
😅😂
L+ratio
Ummm better luck next time 😜
Thank you for your explanation! I'm looking into parts for my first PC build and this video was a great help~
Great video. Building my first rig and motherboards have confused the hell out of me. This has helped alot
This is one of the best mobo videos on this app. Really good explanation, easily digestible info, enough technical data to get you an idea of what pieces do what job, but not so much as to make your head spin!
Really just an amazing video all around!
You're super charismatic and did such a great job explaining everything consicely! Thanks!
Building my own pc rn. Was pretty good on everything except the motherboard. Much appreciated.
You just did a great job explaining all what I need to understand 💞
Just what I needed, thanks for making this video.
This channel and others were a great help. it’s been almost ten years since my last build. I went with a midrange gaming/general use build, and the mobo is the Gigabyte Gaming X Z690 DDR4.
What do u think of it? I'm thinking about buying it, is it good for overclocking?
This video is very helpful thank you so much!
You forgot to mention some include bios flashback which is good future proofing 😉
Thanks for the info. Haven’t built a system in a long time and am thinking of building one. The choice of mobos is crazy. Ditto with the cpu.
nice video, very helpful thank you
Thanks I needed this
that video saved my life thanks so much
Thanks it really help me choosing motherboard
Love you for this info thanks mate
Videos like these are helpful. I'm not going to remember this every 4-6 years I build a new one.
awesome content! Thx a lot!
Really informative. 👍
fuckig AMAZING video, concise and informative. thanks a lot for having made this
Thanks for this
I'm planning to build a high-end SFF PC. I set my eyes on Strix X670E-I but I heard some fatal flaws about this mobo (takes long time to boot, Strix Hive issues, and is straight-up dead after a few months). Can anyone confirm these issues? Are these problems fixable/preventable?
If not, are there any alternative ITX boards that offer USB4 support or should I just scrap the SFF idea?
Pcie 5.0 will free up pcie lanes so it will allow your graphics card to run on just 8 lanes and still perform like a 16 lane pcie 4.0 allowing you to add more M.2
Just ordered an asus x670e hero motherboard. Looking forward to getting the rest for my build.
hello what is your best recommendation motherboard to go with a ryzen 7 7800X3D choosing between this 2 GIGABYTE B650 or ASUS TUF Gaming B650-PLUS
Good Video!
hi, how do you think about the Itx Motherboard MSI Z790I?
dawg is still dont even know what any of this means, how would one know whats a better motherboard
his electric bill would vanish my 2 month income
I’m just curious if I get an micro atx case does that mean I have to but a micro atx motherboard ????
What are the new USB ports for? My board has them but idk what the benefits are?.
Im wondering whether I should go for Gigabyte B650 Gaming x ax or Gigabyte Aorus B650 Pro ax?
Ive never even owned a computer and am building my first gaming pc. I’ve heard a LOT of complaints with the ASUS B650E. Like coil wind, problems with drivers, usb, Bluetooth, and LAN issues, trouble with initial BIOS launch, having to download drivers off a different computer to a usb so that the internet works, and I’m probably missing a few. I was leaning hard toward this mobo due to the micro center bundle with the 7900x but now I’m completely turned off by it. CZcamsrs recommending AM5 but then so many people also saying it’s sh*t and stay with am4. Are these legitimate concerns? Are they issues with the non asus b650? Should I forget the $300 savings and just get better components? Im really just so confused and with so much money and a 2.5 hour drive one way to micro center I DO NOT want to mess this up. Thanks for anyone willing to help..
IDK if you built your PC yet but I built mine around when you were considering yours and I'm using a A770.
0 issues doing any of it and i have a mild overclock on my 7800X3D. A770 is pretty killer nowadays, it runs starfield fine now and i get 244 fps on high settings on avatar. 1080p btw but there is no reason it cant run 2k or 4k. my monitor is the limiting factor which i'll be upgrading soon.
I always forget the compatibility with ryzen and need to look it up which is irritating can you do a deep dive on it? starting from gen1 to now I'd just like to have all the info from 101 to expert. sounds like fun ? lol
Hi I have a gamemax sniper case and my setup currently is a ASROCK 510m hdv R.2 motherboard with intel i3 10105f cpu 16gb ddr4 2666 ram and a rtx 3060ti I want to upgrade the motherboard to a asus mid range with Wi-Fi built in can you help me on which one best for me also I’m gonna be upgrading the cpu to i7 11700k
I’ve never built a pc before and I was so lost the whole video😭
I settled for a b660 with an Intel i5 12400F and AMD Radeon 6600
watching this video as i’m about to buy a i5 12600k and need a budget friendly m-atx motherboard. does anyone have any suggestions at which brands might have the best io and bios? thanks!
was wondering where i could buy that case shown at 41 seconds into the vid
Can someone help, which brand is better for mobo, asrock or gigabyte? Planning to use it for 8-10 years
Bought a z690f last year and been having nothing but problems with the ddr5 I can only use 2 ram sticks anything more causing crashing mid gaming
I just built my new PC and here are the specs. What are your thoughts on it. Case is an ASUS Hyperion GR701 and I added 3 140mm top fans for exhaust, Motherboard is ASUS Z790 Hero, Intel Core i7 13700k, Corsair Vengeance DDR5 64gb 5600 ram, PNY 4070 12gb ram, Coolermaster air ma620m CPU cooler, Corsair 1200 watt modular PSU, WD Black 1tb M2, WD Black M2 4tb, WD Black M2 4tb, LG 34 inch 165hz curved monitor, Roccat Vulcan gaming keyboard, HP external DVD writer, Logitech Trackball, Razor Tiamat 7.1 Surround Headset Ver.202. Logiteck 2.1 Speaker system that I already had and I am using a Logitech C922 Pro Webcam that I had. I'm running Windows 11 Profeshional. What are your opinions on my Build?
MSI mag B760M tomahawk ddr5 wifi would be good for I5-13500 with 4060ti aorus elite oc 8gb graphics. ??
I do love me some overclockin'.
Does b760 work with i5 12th gen 12400f.
Great info, thank you
So I'm actually building my first pc on a budget, and can't decide between the ryzen 5500 and the i3-12100f. Since I'm a casual gamer and and do casual productivity, I'm not sure what makes the most sense, any advise? trying to be in the $500-$600 range.
depends, think 12100 is faster, gaming wise, both can upgrade to great cpus so up to you
but i guess ryzen if you plan to pair it with radeon
It seems like amd-supported motherboards would have to be replaced less, since they’d be able to support new CPUs
hello can you help me out built new pc but i cant get buy the windows connecct to internet i have tried shift f10 but i cant type in the cmd box keyboard not responding how can i get it working and how can i update the drivers for the wiffi or lan off the msi website i have them but can you install them from the bios screen msi mpg z790 edge wifi not connecting
which is better for the i5 13500? prime b760 plus or gigabyte b760m gaming x
Hey should i buy (prime b760-A D4 or tuf gaming b660 plus D4)
After watching this im off to bed and gonna rewatch it tomorrow to try and further understand motherboards 🤷♂️ 😂
it's hard to get an itx board on the market for a reasonable price these days, due to availability. i recommend micro-atx for small form factor builds because they are more available
From many reviews i have seen for 12th gen intel the best budget board is the MSI pro b660m-a as its the only board that lets these CPUs run to full potential.
I have a b550m pro p is that any good?
What board is good for Ryzen 7 5800X3D and RX 6650 XT
ima upgrade my computer from the 90's with this, thanks
😬😬
How did it go?
Can i use a MSI B550 motherboard with a Ryzen 5 7600???
Can u help me I need to Buy a moatherboard for intel i7 10gen what to buy?
Can i game on h-series motherboard? I dont care about overclocking
Hi ... the rog strix your showing doesn't support amd .. it's Intel isn't it ?
This was informative, thank you! I’m new to all this, so your videos have been great.
I do have a question, if anyone can answer. I‘ve seen discussions where people talked about the advantage of getting certain motherboards in order to be able to undervolt rather than overclock; is that restricted by any of the ranges? Do you need to get a mobo that is capable of overclocking in order to successfully undervolt?
yes some boards lock/ limit the voltage drops
Just bought a new PC from Micro center - They had me go with the 7900x3d - X670E crosshair hero- RTX 4090 white ROG - 990 pro 2tb Samsung - Tforce delta ddr5 2x32-6000- & nzxt z73 kraken liquid cooler- Any insight or feedback would be greatly appreciated Thanks - Cody
I would say, its a great pc
You havea lot of confidence when you talk.
You sound certain about what you're saying.
It's a good trait to have, especially when making video content like this.
Cheers.
Hi. Please I need a qualified answer on a question that bothers me a lot as I am going to order PC components including Motherboard from United States to Europe and I am concerned about any issues that I might run into due to the voltage and socket differences. Any qualified help about what to consider will be highly appreciated ❤️ Thanks to everyone.
Bro what’s the best graphic card for 5700x and the wife best motherboard
2 rams dim slots are better for Ram Overclocking
Can I use amd processor with rtx 3060?
I've been looking for this video for so long.
Straight to the facts, without all the cringe jokes and other BS parasiting the content.
this di help a lot thank you from the noobs
I have 700 gaming pc what which I buy for the part
Im watching this 1 day before it is 1 year old
Damn
Also thanks
is the msi pro a620-e motherboard good? ohh wait...
I just wish I would have gone for one with a display port and no usb 2.0. I wound it up and bought one with a ps2 ball port ffs lol
What motherboard would be good for a intel i9 10900F ?
hey which one did you pick?
Omg your incredible im currently building my first gaming pc can I get a recommendation for a 3000 Australian dollar 4070ti build would be amazing
With the 4070 ti costing $1500 you have half that for the rest of the build. Which can be a bit rough given prices in Australia.
Not impossible but you'll have to be pretty frugal on the case, ram etc.
You more an intel or amd kinda guy?
Preferably intel
If not 4070ti what would be a good graphics card for a $3000 pc build?
Or what price range would I be looking at for a 4070ti build

So what was the midt range in motherboard in range off Intel I7.
As you talked about need to renew it after 3-4 years again do to CPU chance in marked.
I dont see AMD is any better on that front even if some say it can hold 5-6 years.
intel 13 and ryzen 7000 both are very strong, sort of ahead time, dont think youll need an upgrade in like 10 years
@@iikatinggangsengii2471 Okay stil wounder about 14 th generation that is not on the marked yet.
Some say November / december 2023 but stil no news about it.
And the issue about Z Motherboards can you buy one today that support both Intel 13-14 th generation.
I was hoping this video would go over topics like RAM speed support (don't want the motherboard to downclock the expensive ram) as well as PCIe lane bottlenecks and similar stuff :(
DUDE THANK YOU! It's like no one care about these really important things but me.... Did u find anything helpful? Like what is the best mid range motherboard for the i5 13600k that won't bottleneck overclocking or anything like that
Should I get Wi-Fi added on the motherboard???
Best motherboard for 7800x3D and 4090 all white build? $200-$400 if the higher priced ones are worth it
.
is a GIGABYTE B760M DS3H AX DDR4
Does anyone know what the best mother board is for a Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 VISION OC and a i5 12400f with some ddr4 ram? Also needs to be white
Wow white? Racist
What am I missing? The Z790 in usa are like 180-300 bucks. Not 500+..?
Lots of different versions
Can you make a 1700 usd gaming PC video?
Is a Msi a520m pro-vh motherboard decent?
Make a 13500 + 3060ti full gaming setup....!!! 😍
That is a scam
U just got scammed
I5 12400f is more than enough for 3060ti
can someone give me the cheapest mb for i7 13700k and rtx 4070 ti
nice video mr. Taron Egerton
I'm currently doing a new Intel PC build and im a little confused about the motherboards im probably getting a Z790 the only thing that confuses me is what the letter means.. it seems to go from Z790-A to who knows what.. i have H on there as it was an ok price but ive no idea what to look for other than have DDR5 n wifi xD
Is there any difference between msi pro z790 wifi ddr5 and
Msi pro z790 wifi pro series ddr5

And while buying motherboard check drivers updates and Bois update support for at least 5 years
For long run these things make your computer to run stable and good performance without any issue
These all things which I told is important for your motherboard so please check all this things before buying any low to high cost motherboard
So I have a intel core i7 6700 and I need a motherboard that fits in a micro atx.what do I buy
AMD isn't only ddr5? i seealot of DDR4 motherboards for amd
Can u do a video with only a 500 dollar PC
As some one said in the comments, you forgot that.
Some will have a bios flashback button, and some WON'T. 😄
think dual bios is more convenient for regular users
What’s the best z590 motherboard for gaming?
I bought the Asus Z690E because I had three 2tb M.2 and two 1tb M.2 ssds. I also still have a blue ray DVD drive I use, and two 1tb sata ssds. Yes, I know that's a lot of storage.
Struggling between the Rog Strix and the Tuff Gaming
