[@davidlp3019]

Mate i was like you about 5 years ago. Here's a tip, save up any Christmas or job money you can and start off small. Then slowly upgrade stuff instead of doing it in one go. Don't bother with flash in the pan components or making it look good at first, just get the performance foundation. I started out with a shit HP desktop, I then transplanted it into a better matx case. I then added fans, a rx460 GPU, ssd, more ram etc. After that I realised my CPU was a bottleneck so I upgraded the shit HP mobo along with the CPU. Now I'm 17 I have a job and never thought I'd have an i5 7500 GTX 1060 g1 3g 8gb ram and rgb fans/peripherals in s340 elite tempered glass case. Next upgrade will be better CPU cooler and rgb strips. Also, the used market is your friend, try getting a good deal on a cheap GPU and a i5 2500k mobo ram combo. Then wack it in a cheap case to start or something.

It’s not the hardware I’m worried to set up or mess up, it’s the software, like how do I decide what to put on my ssd or installing drivers etc.

Charlie G ideally you want your operating system (eg windows 10) and possibly a couple of your favourite games ( depending on the size of the ssd) on a separate small ssd and the bulk of your games, videos, photos etc. on a large ssd or hdd, you should also back files up regularly. Windows 10 will keep most of your drivers up to date but you'll probably need to update your motherboard and graphics card drivers when you first start. Paul's hardware has an excellent beginners series that takes you from part selection through to a full software installation and update.

[@mayravixx25]

Cool. My PC is nothing special yet, in fact, just looking at my specs might actually make you pity me. I'm saving up about 500 dollars to build my own PC. This is what I have currently: PC Model: eMachines EL1358G CPU: AMD Athlon II X2 220 2.80GHz processor, dual core. RAM: 6GB Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 610 (MSI) Power Supply: 220W Monitor 1: 1360x786 resolution, connected with HDMI Monitor 2: 1280x1024 resolution, connected with VGA HDD: 500GB Seagate, came from an old HP computer running Vista. OS: Windows 10 Pro (x64) It's not very powerful, but for the games I really like playing on PC (TF2, TES 5, and GH3 mostly) it works decently. The problem is the power and the processor. They're pretty bad, and they severely limit what my graphics card can do. I bought the GT 610 without realizing it requires at least a 300W PSU, so a 220W PSU is one reason I feel like I have performance problems, along with my processor. The processor is the really weak part; I've noticed it going all the way up to 90% usage when running a game like TF2, resulting in anywhere from 30-50fps, occasional spikes with it dropping down to 15fps or lower at random. When I die though, it jumps up to 100fps :p

[@davidlp3019]

NO. DO NOT DO THIS. HP and Dell and big OEM type manufacturers like that basically always use the absolute shittiest quality unbranded motherboards and power supplies that often, although not always blow out within 3 years. B4 I built systems I bought an HP 500-310a desktop and it was the worst computer I've ever owned, expensive, low spec and terrible quality. They do this so they can decrease the cost of the pc and in turn increase profit margins. If you HAVE to buy a pre-built, at least get one from a good system integrator like ibuypower (although even their PSUs are questionable). Build a system so you save some money, learn a new skill, build confidence in upgrading, and insure you are using quality parts.

Brilliant video. Very informative. Going to look into a few of your videos as I'm now starting to save for a PC. I'm a fed up console gamer and will be timing buying and maybe building my first PC when the ps5 gets released. Hopefully a decent amount of time to save up for a good one!

[@juggernaut2035]

I'd recommend building your own, the satisfaction in doing it yourself is worth it alone. You also gain the experience necessary for when you need to upgrade in the future. I had a bad experience with a pre built. It was shipped broken both times. Eventually I decided to just do it myself for about £300 less. *edit* For those wondering, it took me about 4 hours to build but is actually easier than one would think

Just watched this to see how much you evolved over the years and holy moly, this is grim. Don't take me wrong, the quality is still there, but you look like a young emo robot version of Machine Gun Kelly, no offence. It's joyful to see how much your delivery improved over the years - there's definitely more energy, more classic British humor, more confidence and more life in your videos now. Well done, keep going. Just make sure you don't diss Eminem, that's a bad idea, trust me.

Hey I'm starting to build my first PC and I'm considering getting a GeForce 1060 GTX, are prices still very high right now for about $350 CAD? Should I wait for boxing day? Or when Nvidia releases their new GPUs? Cause I wanted to finish the build before 2018, or mid January

It’s really up to what you like, but if you’re looking for cheap prices, get an used Gtx 1060, or 1070.

It might sound strange, but I honestly prefer building my own PC, because I honestly feel like there's no better feeling than knowing you put it together. It just feels so satisfying, whereas with a pre-built PC, at least for me, it wasn't all that satisfying. It felt like just another computer and it didn't feel like I actually put time and love into it.

[@shianemi7595]

Please for your sake build your own. I bet it’s light years easier than what you think... The truth is , the way that pre builds work is the company buys mass parts and mashes them together and they make a big profit by doing this. When you build your own, it’s much cheaper. It’s WAY better. And I don’t know about you but I Felt a sense of honor when I built my first pc. It’s very delightful knowing that I put together this pc and made it myself...

[@vsgsusus2509]

[@gamebandit179]

People saying, 'buy if you have the money', but why? For 1000usd you're going to get something just above average. If you have 1000usd and build a PC, you're going to have over kill pc. A better example of this would be when me and my friend decided to upgrade - I built a PC for £500 (have to pay for uni so tight budget) and my friend, who is well off, buys a pc for £850. Mine is significantly better and he's ended up spending more money to improve it. (Also, if English is bad I'm not native English)

[@davidrabb2948]

uhm Hey, you missed some things :D fof. UK£ 1000 =1 290.5 US$ . Second thing : I'm pretty sure *overkill* is relative. Lets say an 1060 might be an overkill for him because he only plays minecraft,leauge,csgo on a 60Hz monitor, and watches youtube videos, but for you it might not do the job since you *lets say* want to play the newest games at *U L T R A* . But i might be wrong , if yes please correct me , but as far as i know the word overkill doesnt referr to how strong a PC or XY is :P

[@SlyNinja0321]

pcpartpicker.com/list/hwsz3F This includes everything. You don't need case fans since the case includes decent case fans, cooler has thermal paste already applied, and... why would you need extra SATA cables when it comes with whatever you're buying? My motherboard came with 2 already, and I got more by buying more drives. Also, just pirate Windows. Fuck Windows. They're assholes. No one feels bad. Or get Linux.

[@SlyNinja0321]

Just wait for deals. You CAN even fit an SSD in there, and keep it under $1000 if you wait for deals as well. Also, you can buy used things that really aren't affected by time like a processor.

[@davidrabb2948]

uhm. hey :DD i'd have some questions, first of all can you use real windows on pc-s that ran with pirated windows before? probably dumb question but hey :D im not sure second of all i will probably , hopefully build a pc in Winter and i'd also have some questions about it -does black friday affect pc components on.. letssay amazon, newegg? -i will use the rig for streaming, and idk if i should buy win 10 or xd ? i just fear that i'll accidentally leak it somehow or smth. , thanks :)

[@SlyNinja0321]

Black Friday does affect PC components, but I think Cyber Monday has better deals. And yes, the person above states, you can run a legitimate key of windows that has a pirated version. This also might be a better build pcpartpicker.com/list/JDJFVY Note, I didn't add Windows.

@PC Centric Hi, any chance of seeing a video of you putting together a few different tier builds for gaming PCs? Maybe budget, mid and high-level ones for end 2017? Tonnes of vids from the US but there aren't many (or any...) UK content producers out there doing this sort of thing so it would be great to see you take up the challenge! It would also be quite cool to have your take on a complete system rather than just the PC components (i.e. best gaming monitors, speakers, keyboards and mice (wired and cordless). Thanks and hope this happens.

[@paramnagpal3123]

Buying- Pros: If something goes wrong, you have a warranty, and you can blame the manufacturer. Also, you don’t have to go through the trouble of building. Cons: Manufacturers sell the computers for more than they’re worth so they can make a profit, so you lose money Building- Pros: You save money, and building can be a fun and new experience. You also have more customization when you build Cons: For someone that’s new to building, they could easily forget to put in a screw or not lock in a piece correctly which could cause the whole computer to not work and they wouldn’t understand why it’s not working.
