[@amshermansen]

You did amazing - None of the "mistakes" you made are anything seasoned builders wouldn't do by accident on occasion. (Though I'd definitely get that fan wire that clipped into the top fan on the first power on sorted asap) One thing you could do is take the glass side panel down to a printer, and have them apply some decorative vinyl art on it. You can get material that looks like it's been etched into the glass that looks gorgeous when lit up. :)

[@rowanrooks]

Ooh... decorative vinyl is a good tip. It would definitely help make a build feel more personalized. I think I need to go see if I can find something that looks like stained glass

Gem, you did a fantastic job building the PC, especially for someone that hasn't done it before. Super fun video to watch, MSI is amazing as well, I use a lot of their products myself! Can't wait to see more streams and videos recorded from this PC!

[@YesItsTyler]

Omg I've been a member almost a year now too! xD

[@Nomulos]

Awesome build! I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but the 4090 12 pin cable has been somewhat infamous the past year for being a potential fire hazard (the worst I've seen is some melted plastic). It should be fine as long as you make sure it's fully plugged in without being twisted too much to either side (as long as you can't see any of the pins on the cable, you'll be fine). Overall you're probably unlikely to be affected but it might be worth watching a video or 2 just to make sure!

[@Kirmeins]

Thank you for pointing that out! My boss got a new 4090 just last week for AI training. None of us had a lot of experience building PCs (read: almost none). It's working fine, but I'm definitly going to check that cable again! :)

[@Retroxyl]

@@Kirmeins There are 90 degree adapters that should prevent the pins from being pulled out and therefore the connector melting entirely. CableMod makes a very good and pretty one. It is also not as expensive as other CableMod products tend to be.

[@allendavis259]

​@@Kirmeins@Retroxyl just be aware of you went with the cablemod option there was a recall

[@dizdawgjr34]

Also on the subject of potential hardware issues, the 13900k is the probably the biggest victim of the degradation issues Intel has been having with their CPUs the past few years, so undervolting and the bios microcode update later this month will absolutely need to be applied to help with longevity of this pc.

[@urilgal]

You did a great job. The fact you started on the motherboard box shows you did great research 🙂 Also static isn't too dangerous now. High end conponents especially have protections in place. You would've need ALOT of static and ALOT of bad luck for something to happens.

[@DIYToPen]

Don't encourage people to ignore static. There's no guarantee that a CPU could survive a shock of 10kV+. And I have never seen a CPU advertised as being immune to electric shock. Putting a protection circuit is a waste of die space. Prove me wrong... I haven't upgraded my pc significantly in 5 years.

[@imthestighonest3437]

Ive watched with horror as a little blue spark went from my finger to a now fried CPU. Even with protection a $2 esd wrist strap is always cheaper than replacing the nice new cpu you just bought

[@urilgal]

@@DIYToPen I think watching Electroboom and LTT video where they stress test a bunch of electronics is a great exemple of how bad things need to go to have a problem. I've seen wild claims like not wearing socks because they could fry some conponents. Don't touch the contacts and touch the case/psu box to discharge your static if you have some and you should be fine.

[@louigovi]

True about the static but always better to be safe

[@CapObv]

ALWAYS discharge any static you may have built up before touching the components.

[@fireferet8819]

Excellent! Keeping the GPU in its silver bag was a great idea, that protects it from static. In the future, if you're worried about static, there are little wristbands you can buy that either plug into the wall, or clip to the case to add some security. Love PC part picker. Well done!

[@dziooooo]

I didn't have that when building my PC, so I resorted to running around without socks on and occasionally hugging the radiator to ground myself XD

Gem this is amazing! So proud of how far you have come and how lucky you are to get free parts :)!!

[@MrDontaco]

Awesome job at building your new PC. As someone who only builds one every few years, the biggest thing I always forget and want to let you know is to make sure you turn on the XMP profile in your BIOS to get the most out of your RAM. On most boards its off by default and throttles the RAM speeds.

[@xanpagebrown]

I second this! Especially important as she's using DDR5 ram which is likely capable of running at 6000MHz looking at the packaging but by default would likely only be running at maybe 3000MHz? (I'm not too familiar with the non-xmp speed of DDR5 RAM as I haven't got any experience with it)

GeminiSlay just casually flexing her PC building skills

[@HeilTec]

PC building is a bit more complicated than LEGO, and yet even simpler. Having the right parts makes it fairly obvious what goes where since most connectors and sockets are coded to fit only the right place. Still plenty of room for mistakes. Great job getting it right first time (except for the cable adjustments) - the apple has not fallen far from the tree trunk. Good luck with that monster PC.

[@thethrowaway]

Firstly, I want to say that I've built PCs for over 10 years and, for a first-timer, you did great. You avoided some things that first-timers do (most people would try to wire everything up after installing the CPU cooler and/or GPU, which just makes things a bit more of a pain). Overall, I'm impressed. Now, I don't tend to comment or even log in to KZbin, but I've watched you for years (admittedly logged out of KZbin) and wanted to give one suggestion: To check that the Graphics Card power cable is fully plugged into the 4090, and that you don't put much strain on the plug with your cable routing. Even if it looks plugged in, make sure the securing tab is fully locked. You may have done that off camera, but I wanted to comment in case you haven't since it can cause some fairly expensive issues down the road (not to alarm or scare you, like I said you did a good job on everything shown).

[@chloeeeezy]

You're always utterly adorable in every video but this one was especially precious! You did a fantastic job. I'm very impressed & inspired to build my own PC. Also, just want to mention that I appreciate your manicure. Your hands were looking READY for their close-up shots! 💅

[@mintycheddar3854]

Congratulations, Gem! This took me back to the few times I've built my own desktop PC's. I felt all the anxiety and terror over again, and all the joy and excitement seeing it work in the end. I hope you and your PC have many happy years together!

[@xPyroxx]

Solid 10/10 effort there! Don't worry about the cables, trying to make fan cables look tidy is like trying to throw a dart in a dart board, with your eyes shut, with a wall between you and the board. Everything else, spot on. Well done on the ram sticks going in the correct slots for dual channel memory, that's usually a tripping point. 100/10 for the asmr peel on the motherboard too.

[@ShadowMech]

I built 3 of my own PC's and each time it was still a scary process but very enjoyable! You did a fantastic job!

[@fnaf1983-RWQFSFASXC]

Hi Shadow!

[@areksoo]

Good job on the build! Just some a small tip for next time: A lot of the parts of the case are removeable. You can strip it all down to the chassis if you wanted to. It looked like the doors were bothersome while you were building.

[@NewLans14]

4:30 NOOOO! As a long-time PC builder, I can tell you the peels are The Most Important Part Of The Build! Unless you are installing somethig that will block the peel, you save it till LAST! That's just bad luck! I'm dying here! As usual, such a cute video! Nothing makes a person feel as smart as building a PC, and I'll admit your cable management is far better than mine. I just shove the cables in trusting the back panel will hide them. I'm also in the middle of a build but I was going to transfer more of my old parts to the new computer. I think you convinced me to just get a better processor. Great build, overall!

[@TheDertyFerd]

Congrats on the new pc. I chuckled when you compared it to Lego. That what I tell my friends it like. Nowadays, it's just really expensive lego. You did so many thing properly building it I was actually quite impressed. Great job and enjoy that new PC!

[@jsquire1331]

God I wanna build a new PC, partially for Minecraft ;-P. But I appreciate watching you do this for your first time.

[@kairon156]

This was super fun to watch. Building a PC from the ground up is both stressful and rewarding. The cool thing about playing less hardware intense games like Minecraft on truly powerful hardware is a great idea. The parts should last years to come and games should run very smoothly.

[@lauriea2971]

Congrats on ur first pc build me fellow Newfie. Alots of love from ur fellow newfie

[@originalkhawk]

congrats on the new build, 1 point to note is that the way you installed your radiator fans (on the liquid cooler) makes it so it draws air in from the top, while not wrong, generally most people opt to flip them around (with the logo of the fan facing the radiator) so it blows out of the top of your case, again its not wrong the way you mounted them, but for overall thermals in your case you might want to go in and flip them. also a step a lot of new pc builders miss is once your build is done, go into the bios and enable XMP to make sure your RAM runs at its advertised speed

[@MDKdave]

Air is usually drawn from the logo side (open face) to the grille side though. The way Gem has installed them they're pulling air from inside the case and blowing through the radiator and out.

[@hanhdinh3458]

Omg! You rock at this! I love your set up❤

[@DoomWalker42]

My biggest advice is that you should enjoy what you have and not worry about buyer's remorse. This is a huge problem in building PC's because there is always something better than what you have and usually at a better discount if you had only waited a few months or so. But as long as the parts you have run what you need to do then enjoy it. An don't fall into the trap of future proofing. That's one of the biggest scams in the tech industry. Congrats on the new pc!

[@tres3354]

I love how Gem is careful about putting every part of the pc lol

[@BenschiVids]

It's so nice to see that you clearly did research and look up how to build a PC / remembered from the build with your dad. I have seen so messy stuff, and this was one of the cleanest "first pc builds" ever.

[@hjhornbeck9484]

Former PC tech here. You did a great job! Your cable management is pretty good, running all them through the back where they won’t block airflow makes it 1000% easier. Fan orientation appears correct, too. The biggest mistake I spotted was popping the motherboard into the case too early, looks like you popped it back out to put the cooler on. It’s also handy to do a bench test where you power it up with the mobo out of the case, as this makes diagnostics easier. Not a big issue, at all.

[@GSBarlev]

Interesting. With chonky AIOs like that one, you don't recommend mounting the radiator before mounting the block on the CPU?

[@LBQuan]

That would depend on the case. Lower-end, budget case would require you to install the cooler first (although, in the past few years, manufacturers have been implementing it in their lower-end design, but they often too small to be helpful); however, the Corsair iCue 7000x is an enthusiast, high-end case that have a big hole at the CPU location where you fit in the mounting bracket. You don't see it as it's being covered by a plate holding the fan / lighting iCue controller. But yeah. if possible, I personally like building my PC outside of the case first, as it does make the initial diagnostic phase easier. But again, that would be depended on the overall components of the build. In Gem's case, due to the cooler (as installing a mobo with that AIO would be a pain), installing the mobo with only two screws first is probably what I would do for testing though.

[@mahamkhan2247]

This was so exciting to watch as someone who's been following you since 2020! I've been wanting to build my own PC for 2 years now but there are too many obstacles in my way, so I was living VICARIOUSLY through you this whole video!

Good on ya.. They can seem daunting, but once you've built one or two, you'll be able to build them in your sleep. Making a clone (system disk image) & using the old OS can save time.. Case looks bling bling Thanks

[@GSBarlev]

Lukewarm take: a fresh install (with your old OS and software settings accessible on a backup drive) gives you a great chance to _kon mari_ your software setup. Given how fast it is to download and install software these days, you end up with a much cleaner system just installing what you need, right before you need it, rather than carrying around random software you installed six years ago that you haven't used since. Also: I'm a firm believer that your documents (and videos, music, etc.) should *never* be on the same partition as your OS (and anything important should be backed up using 3-2-1).
