How to Build a Gaming PC in Under 15 Minutes! 🛠️ [An Easy Beginner's Guide]

Here’s a personal note of mine, based on certain builds I’ve seen. While installing an AIO with an intake configuration, you need to pay a lot of attention when you’re mounting the fans. If the fan holes aren’t visible on both ends before you attempt to install the fans, you run the risk of driving the fan screws directly into the fins of the radiator - potentially impacting its performance.

[@SirChristoferus]

Also, if you’re planning on using a custom AM5 bracket, be sure to install it when the motherboard is resting on a flat antistatic surface when the standard bracket is removed from the board, as that area of the motherboard’s backplate will detach if it isn’t being held against the motherboard itself.

[@REALRXBEL]

Thx

My bigger brother realized pre built pc’s are mostly scams so he’s buying parts to build a pc for me. I’m watching this for preparation before hand

[@BakaVacaa]

I initially had some concerns about whether this would serve as a comprehensive guide, but I was pleasantly surprised. Great job! I shared a detailed video from LTT with my friend to ensure she felt completely at ease with the building process. Then I stumbled upon this gem. The duration was just perfect for a day-of tutorial. Thank you for your hard work and keep up the excellent video!!

Recently transferred from laptop to proper PC and got really overwhelmed. Thank you for simplifying it so clearly!

[@moedawg8181]

It’s worth mentioning that the socket cover should be kept somewhere where it’s easily accessible as from what I’ve heard it’s sometimes required if you return the motherboard.

[@glitchyfox8706]

looking into building one atm. thx for making it look less daunting. now for me too look for and make sure the parts i build are good and will actualy go together. wish me luck

[@shdmrch9643]

Best of luck!! You can definitely do it!

[@shdmrch9643]

If you could, would you be able to share with me the parts you are using for the build? It would be great if you can list all the parts including the utility you will be using.

[@pinkfiffty3094]

Pcpartpicker is a great tool as you picking and putting a build together, they have some suggestion on parts (full build reccomendations and you can change things here and there to fit what you want better) or you can start from scratch you put all of your parts individually and it oftwn tells you if there are things that don't match(not fool proof but a pretty good guide).

Watching this on 0.75 playback speed instead of normal playback is much better. I felt like I'd had too much caffeine and sugar on first watch, as it's like everything is being said and explained at hyperspeed to fit in to the 15mins. Much better with it being slowed down slightly! Great video by the way, very informative and perfect for me as a newbie, just bring the pace down a notch 🙂

[@MrDavidMoyer]

5:15 These days, many M.2 SSD come with thermal putty already installed. In this case, you can CHOOSE whether to use the putty on the SSD card or on the motherboard's SSD cover... but don't use both. Peel one off completely and wipe the surface down with a bit of rubbing alcohol to remove any residue, then install the SSD, then put the cover on. You only need ONE layer of the thermal putty.

[@mueezyasir]

@@69Lowspot69 Depends on your circumstances. I'd say have multiple sources of income (job, side hustles, investments) and live with your parents if you can, if u cant, be frugal in every part of your life. shop at thrift stores, buy grocies from the cheap supermarket or grow your own food, downgrade your car or use cheaper transportation. dont spend on unneccesary things like morning coffess, cigrattes/alchol, nights out and takeaways etc etc. Be very frugal and do lots of things to earn money, eventually you will get there. The other option is to get a budget pc. i got a pc with i5-12400f, rtx 4060 (used) , cheap 1tb ssd, cheap case, gamemax psu and other affordable parts with added up to £550

i've always wonder how do you like know all this stuff?do you have to study computer software or science to know all the specific types of CPU PSU or anything because im planning to start a pc building building business and i have only known the basics. please give me advice

[@JJFlores197]

lol. This has nothing to do with computer science. These are 2 very different fields. A lot of the PC builders on youtube are self-taught. You don't go to school to learn how to build PCs. A lot of us learned through trial and error and curiosity and determination. No one truly knows al the technical details about PCs. Its too complicated for the majority of people, even seasoned PC builders. Starting your own PC building business is going to be tough. Not to discourage you, but you have to see if it makes sense in your area. Building PCs is a niche market. If you can find the right market in your area, you may be ok, but it will be tough out there.

First time I built mine I forgot to plug in the power connector for the aio. I turned on the pc and watched as the cpu temp went from 0 F to 98F in about 10 seconds. Parents thought it was normal but I knew I that it was way to hot. Glad I knew my facts and didn’t listen to my parents.

[@SirChristoferus]

I remember having something like that happen. I noticed that the temperatures kept getting random spikes, ultimately culminating in a failsafe system shutdown. Upon investigation, I found the problem - the CPU_FAN plug was only partially inserted. It was enough for the motherboard to accept the AIO pump, but not enough for the AIO pump to properly manage and detect the temperatures.

Things that people will never tell cabinet fans fan hub is quite cheap buy it it's easy to manage cable at a single point individual to motherboard argb connectors can't be painfull and sync them too . Supoose you have normal RGB fans and no argb you don't care much just want cooling. Most cases when buying a cheaper cabinet fans or older ones you may not have the proper connector put it with the PSU molex connectors and stacks it or stack it and use a unused sata pin. Check your motherboard properly for what is the front panel connector for power and restart Like Msi the physical never matched the onnline one. Read what's written on the Mobo. Power and re-start pins and the argb header can look similar until you look close don't try to push it it won't fix there you may break it . I thanks msi fir one thing highlightimg the pump header for AIO with metal stainless thing covering it . Unless gigabyte fight to find what is what they're manual in box throw it in Dustin and read the onnline one .
