This was great, you may not remember I emailed you months ago but an issue I had as having with my pc build, sound system and potentially rebuilding my system aka upgrading the motherboard. I find your videos really informative and fun. Always a great watch. Thanks ☺️

Is there any pre steps you have to do? Like uninstall windows or anything before I swap my motherboard?

will you have to install windows 11 and all of you're games again? IM switching from intel 12600k to AMD 9800x3d

@BuildsWithV Ай бұрын

@@damine1090 in my experience I haven't had to reinstall any of my data. The only thing is you'll have to install all your drivers and stuff for the new hardware. Also, depending how you purchased windows key, you may need a new key to activate windows. Some keys are linked to motherboard and not to your account, others are linked to your windows account so that wouldn't be a problem.

Do i need to drain my custom loop when doing this? 2 waterblocks 1 on cpu 1 on gpu

@BuildsWithV Ай бұрын

@@digitaldave5272 yeah unfortunately you will need to. I had to do this on a custom loop and it wasn't too bad. Bad part is having to buy new liquid for it but I suppose you could reuse it if you store it in a clean container.

@digitaldave5272 Ай бұрын

@ i guess its not too much of an issue, i have the liquid in my garage but this seems so tricky to do with watercooling

@BuildsWithV Ай бұрын

@digitaldave5272 yeah its definitely a bit more work with custom loop. But once you remove the liquid and any pipes in your way of removing the motherboard it should be the same as this video.

So now what happens when you turn the pc back on with everything back in the new motherboard? U don’t have to re-set up windows? It’s all on the ssd and the new motherboard recognizes the computer as it was? No other steps?

@BuildsWithV 2 ай бұрын

@@Wesley-Houlas if you’re swapping with the same motherboard then nothing will change unless you used a windows key that registers to motherboard instead of account, then you’d have to reactivate windows. If with a different motherboard then you might need to install some drivers etc.. In my experience everything stayed the same besides drivers

@ since you were kind enough to answer me the first time I have another question I can’t find an answer too I hope you could help me with. I need a small but mighty AIR cooler for a 5950x 16 core 140w processor. My AIO died and everything is so stuffed in the back of my micro atx case I don’t want to re wire a new AIO. Plus I’m going to start a new build in the next year or so. It can’t be a huge air cooler in order to fit in my Corsair crystal 280x, but it needs to have the cooling power for my cpu. Do u have any recommendations?

@BuildsWithV 2 ай бұрын

@ Noctua makes some really good low profile coolers. They are on the pricier side but very good. ID-COOLING makes good ones as well and cheaper than noctua. Here’s a few links to see reference but you can search up “low profile mini iTX cpu cooler” and see similar results. Id: amzn.to/4eoslJy Nocuta: amzn.to/4fhBapP Note: make sure they’re make for your cpu. Often times with small coolers like these, they’re made with one bracket only and you’d need a different model for your cpu.
