[@krahvata]

@@jackduncan7214 I actually did build my first PC a few days ago. Honestly, the whole process wasn't that complicated. I was blowing it way out of proportion in my head because I was stuck on tiny details that are insignificant to the average gamer. The hardest part was that initial knowledge gap. Once I got the ball rolling, started researching what these components were and the important specs to look out for, it was easy. It took me like 3 weeks of sporadic research to choose my part and 3 hours to build it once they arrived. Trust me, you can do it 👌. This video is great as a starting point into crucial components and their specs but TechSource and his 2024 pc build guide was the one I actually used to build so maybe check that out too.

@25:19 Please add a warning label to NEVER use any cables other than the ones that are certified to go with the EXACT MAKE AND MODEL number of your power supply! The cable might fit in the PSU but the order of the pins may not be the same on the end of the original and replacement cable destroying or badly damaging the hardware you plug it into! Edit: using custom cables especially made for your make+model+revision/version will work, but buy from a reputable source, because one mixup could cause irreparable damage

[@jhkcreates]

REALLY IMPORTANT! I learned this the painful way multiple times. And second time around I checked too. It was different from another one from the same brand and afaicr the same line of PSUs! REALLY (!!!) check and double check with modular PSUs. If you are crafty, of course, you might be able to recrimp and reseat a cable should for instance one break or you need a sleeved cable in a certain color and so on....

[@timheath518]

bro i am literally setting up my gaming pc right now, and am glad I saw this, because I do have other cables from a different brand I had thought about,thanks!

[@lasskinn474]

same brand doesn't even protect you, such is the state of pc parts now.

[@clifftempleman8217]

As someone who makes their own cables, I can agree to some extent, I make my own so that I can Braid them or colour match them to my build, but it's important to use the correct wire and also study the pin outs, there's a lot of cross overs from PSU's not everything go's A to B!

[@JohnDoe-hw8ge]

@clifftempleman8217 Seeing that you know what you are doing, you know the risks and probably double/triplecheck the pinout. The video mostly aimed at people who are making (one of) their first computer(s), a clear warning for them to be aware that they cant just use any cables can prevent a lot of damage and headache finding out

Two weeks ago I built my very first PC build from the ground up watching the previous LLT build guide; I’m very happy with my build, and ecstatic to know that there are updates to these types of guides.

[@ledues3336]

How long did it take you from the start (choosing components) to actually having the computer on your desk ready to go? I have some deadlines coming up and while a nice desktop would help me do it faster, I’m afraid of taking too long to build it

[@chaseaustinmusic]

@@ledues3336 Building a PC is “personal”, what I mean by this is that it takes time and patience. Your finding each part, deciding what to go with, researching what is best and avoiding the worst, reasonable budget (possible sales/discounts), what is available now, etc. Building one can be done on a deadline that usually takes about 2-5 hours (varies on building pace, installing os takes 20mins requiring internet connection, running diagnostics/software updates)

I've been building computers since the mid 80s, a lot has changed and yet so much has remained the same. Always good to keep uptodate with the latest tech. Thx. ps. The best takeaway anyone can get from this guide is "Plan your build" evaluate what you want and spec out and review the compatibility of the parts you are going to use. The last thing you want is to find out about some issue a month or two down the track right in the middle of some important task.

[@dipromondalgaming1183]

Aboslutely love the video. Spent about 4-6 months investigating different configurations and finally got my PC last year which I use for gaming (sometimes), programming (mostly) as well as light graphics rendering (rarely).

Back in the ol CompUSA days (memba them?), you started your PC build by first selecting the motherboard that you wanted because CPU selections back in those days were really VERY limited. Now it's the exact opposite. Now you first select the CPU because of the wide range of CPU selections.

4 Things: 1 - Either I missed it or you forgot to mention the most important thing when deciding on a PSU: The power budget. Make sure to have a PSU with enough budget to power everything you want to connect to it. And if needed a bit more for possible later additions. 2 - Power supply may not always mount on the bottom. In this case it would have been nice to explain how to deal with the fan in that case. 3 - Some people actually still use external drive bays. either for Optical drives or card readers. Or in some very niche cases maybe even floppy disk (if supported) either with its standard connector or via USB 1.1 (wich should work on a USB 2 port). When deciding on a case, figuring out weather or not you need external bays is important. As well as their size and the amount of them. Its fine if you need to install a 2.5 inch device if you only have larger bays. however in this case it is good to note weather the device your buying comes with an adapter or weather your going to have to get one separately. 4 - Some people may also want or need to install a Wi-Fi Card. Either with or without Bluetooth. When opting for an internal card: Wi-Fi cards that have both BT and Wi-Fi may use separate connections for both. The standard PCie where the card itself goes in and an additional internal USB cable. if the cable is not attached to the card itself, the connector tends to be freakishly small, so be carefull with that one. When deciding on where to place this card: It is not only a good idea to check which size port you want, but if possible also make sure you have enough room on the back of the case to screw in the antenna(s) and orient it/them correctly i.a.

Already bought a PC and won’t upgrade to ps5 pro after seeing nothing much change and same form factor

[@HonestDoubter]

I just built my first PC. I used this guide and a few others with specific hardware applications. It posted the first time. I honestly can't believe it and I am so exited.

1:03:16 Some newer fans come with reverse fan blades, so you can mount the ugly side away from your view. Especially helpful if you have one of those fishtank cases and you want the exhaust fans to still look good.

1.5hrs in and loving Every Minute :) What jacket is Alex wearing @ 1:21:51? New version of the Workshop Jacket? Glad you left that word said incorrectly in the final video. Gave me a good chuckle. haha Wishing I had another hour left though. Maybe I'll just watch it through twice :)

[@waalex11]

I'm glad this video has little to no corrections or advice from fans like the previous video. Now I guess I could confidently follow this to buy my PC one day without needing much research. Or else, like I typically do when wanting to buy something new and need to learn of it and its best things... that'd probably take me weeks if not a month to learn it all to my satisfaction on what to get for my PC.

[@bancaart5968]

Just watched the original yesterday and now I’m watching this update hahaha last time I built a pc was 10 years ago and now I’m waiting for my parts to arrive and watching this helped me with some questions I had. One thing I noticed is that on Emily’s pre transition table she have a closed and sad person figure and in her post transition table a much happier figure! I’m glad she’s doing ok, miss her on camera sometimes Thx for the guide! Can’t wait to build my new rig

I just watched this as a primer (and motivator) for me to start reviewing for CompTIA A+ exam that I am planning to take in 3 months time. I love Personal computer topics, hardware reviews ( both written and audio-visuals), assemble videos, LTT series on computing upgrades, the whole 9 nine yards. What stymies me most of the time is SOFTWARE AND NETWORKING CONNECTIONS (on the computer), be it installations, verification and troubleshooting or simply new tech. I just wish LTT would have a accompanying "How to INITIALLY setup your PC, OS and Network edition" to this video. Thank you.

[@jimjam4082]

I clicked this video thinking it was a 20 minute video. At 1 hour and 30 minutes in was when i realized it it was more than 20. Thats a good sign of a good video.

[@bartender_billy6229]

EMILY!!!! IM SO HAPPY TO SEE HER IN A VIDEO AGAIN

I just build my first ever PC today, this video has been a great help in teaching me the steps one by one. Thanks you so much LTT!!!

4th time building a PC in my life but it's always 5 years between each build and I get stressed starting again. Super helpful video, you guys are the best

This is one of the longest tutorial I had ever watched! And nothing will gone come remotely close with this in the next decade. Next 2h + tutorial I will watch will be “how to build your own personal robot assistant”.

putting the ad for the power supply company in the middle of the section about buying power supplies was a bit gross

Positive Feedback: This is the quality style and especially in depth(-ness?) I love. While I can understand that it's not especially cost and time efficient compared to some other Videos, it is very welcome at least once in a while. The other videos are great too, but this was spot on, a 10/10. Love it, keep it up.

As a cuber, hearing the word "maglev" used in reference to something that isn't cube tension sounded an alarm in my brain.

[@timothymyers7306]

as a pyramider i find your lack of trigonometric angles disturbing

[@mantictac]

​@@timothymyers7306 I happen to also be a pyramider (of the maglev variety)

[@karlhendrikse]

What is a cuber? What do you cube?

[@mantictac]

​@@karlhendrikse A cuber is a solver of twisty puzzles, usually with the goal of solving them as fast as they can (speedcuber). Most of the time this is referring to the classic 3x3 Rubik's Cube, but there are smaller ones, bigger ones, and ones that aren't strictly cubes (like the Pyraminx or Megaminx, which we still call "cubes" generically). Speedcubing requires specialty hardware with a very low manufacturing tolerance, and maglev became popular fairly recently to replace springs in cube cores because they're frictionless.

Perfect timing

[@Cinetyk]

Using wording like "last guide" is not technically the best way to indicate that, but I understand for SEO purposes. Just keep refreshing these videos with newer versions from time to time, since actually lots of stuff between form factors, cables and UEFI and Windows, etc will change over time, among others. I've been helping friends over the years and for people that are not enthusiasts in the space for many years (such as myself), lots of things can be daunting and so many little problems can arise, between hardware and BIOS and software. This kind of guide is truly helpful. Cheers.

[@Alex-dh2ff]

Over the moon to see Emily back!

1:34:00 Glad you guys addressed the reversed diagrams for pull/push fan configuration that I commented on the original video. If you're planning on keeping the original, can you please put annotations to address it there as well? It might help people coming across the original first.
