hey guys you're watching Jase two cents as I've been promising for the last couple of weeks I want to show you guys just how easy it is to build your own computer and there's nothing to be scared of because these aren't my part so if anything breaks it's not my problem so let's go ahead and jump right in and build this thing all right guys let's go ahead and talk about the parts got a whole stack of parts here everything was bought fresh nothing was reused for the graphics card one with a Asus direct cu2 gtx 660 this is not the TI version guys this is the standard 660 this was the best graphics card we could afford for this budget but in all the features we were looking for a nice heat pipe design very quiet operation for the motherboard we again went with the basic gigabyte b75 m d3h very solid motherboard it's going to be a computer that's on all the time so it's got very stable operation in it so that's what we needed we also needed a micro ATX board to make more room in the case so we didn't go with a full-featured full sized board and I'll tell you in the end this is a very impressive motherboard processor straightforward I 535 70 K we got this thing at a very reasonable price at micro Center and for the memory we're using ballistics 8 gigabytes of 1600 megahertz ram we didn't go all out on the power supply unit we went with a thermal take TR to 600 watt it is an 80 plus rated PSU so it's going to get the job done for us and for the case we're using a Diablo Tec evo ATX mid tower case nothing special had all the features we needed and it was all powder-coated black including the inside one of the things you should always do when you build a PC is use a ground strap I don't use a ground strap I never have I built at least 20 computers in just the last few years alone never used a ground strap and I've never had a problem but manufactures will tell you is recommended to use a ground strap what you want to do is remove your motherboard and place it on top of your motherboard box this gives you a nice surface to work on it won't scratch your table because of all of these solder points right here which are very sharp want to install the CPU when the motherboard is free of the case when you try and install it inside you have a lot less room to work with and the processor is the most fragile part of the build so you want to make sure that that is protected at all times one of the most common mistakes people make when installing their CPU into their motherboard is they don't orient the CPU properly you'll notice up here that there is two notches on the top of the processor does not just correspond with two notches that are in the socket so you want to make sure that you get those lined up and that you drop the CPU on there evenly and it will fit right into place it seems simple enough but you'd be surprised how many people have actually destroyed their sockets by not properly installing this is also another part that a lot of people are afraid to do is to properly lock down their socket when you bring down the latch cover here it goes under the screw but when you push down the lever and you get about halfway it starts to get really really tight you actually are going to feel this rod Bend and it's going to make you think you're hurting your processor but you're not you're making sure it has a nice secure set of seal and contact between all of the different pins underneath the process of this build right off the bat we're not really planning on doing any real overclocking so we've opted to use just the stock intel heat sink fan over time we will replace this so we're just going to go ahead and leave the stock thermal compound that is on the heatsink right here but what you need to make sure is that you orient a fan and a spot of which you're going to be able to easily plug into the fan header which in this case is to the bottom and to the left of the product you want to make sure that when you seat this you get the nipples the Computers like dirty talking you want to make sure you get all four of these nipples lined up on the holes we're going to push this down you heard it locked push it to the right and it's locked in now instead of going around in a circle you want to do this in a star pattern so you're going to go directly across what you think I want to go ahead and talk about before we install the memory onto this motherboard is the importance of checking the channel configuration of your motherboard these are not all the same one would think that the two blue channels and the two white channels would be separate but that's not true for all motherboards so make sure you take out the manual and don't toss it aside until after you've looked at this and determined what your memory configuration is speaking of which is a good thing I check the manual because this is one of those motherboards where to get a dual channel configuration you have to use the same color if you're using two DIMM slots now for the case we just went for a very basic very simple Diablo Tec mid tower case you want to look for something that has intake fans on the front on the top this one just happens to have a couple on the side but what I liked about this particular case is the fact that it has it's all black powder coating different motherboards have different whole patterns for mounting locations you have micro ATX ATX and so what you're going to want to do is you're going to most cases have these holes marked unfortunately this case doesn't so what you have to do is you're going to have to hold the motherboard up to the holes just so you can get an idea of which pattern of mounting screws you need to use and then what you do after that is you're going to put in your standoffs for your motherboard before install your motherboard inside the case you want to make sure you get the IO plate oriented properly there's nothing more annoying than getting this thing in the case upside down and then it doesn't match up with your motherboard when you try to install and so when installing your power supply it's important to think about where your computer is going to be installed if it's going to be sitting on a desk like over there go ahead and show the mess in this office there's no carpet to worry about for my power supplies I'm able to keep the fan pointing down which will keep the dust from getting inside the power supply in it however this model up here is going to be installed on the floor sitting on carpet so if we have carpet plugging up this hole it's not going to keep very much air from it's going to keep air from getting to this power supply unit if it's faced downward so we're going to go ahead and mount this model facing up so that they can get fresh air from inside the case this next thing we're going to do now that we have our motherboard installed our power supply is mounted we've got our eight pin to our CPU ran a little bit I don't like this but this case doesn't really allow us to run it behind we're now going to install our GPU and this is the Asus DC 2 or the DCU GTX 660 from Nvidia so we're getting pretty close to having all the guts installed here we've got the power supply unit we've got it routed to the back zip-tied got a graphics card a motherboard memory processor heatsink and the added fans okay guys so here it is it's all put together the wires are you know some people might say this looks alright I'm anal retentive and this bothers me a little bit but we did the best we could with the cable management in this case again this case was only 37 bucks so you really can't complain powder-coated black it looks pretty good we get the wires up out of the way a little bit there but the backside it's really not too bad I just kind of select the excess over here under the drive bays you won't really see it but what you got to be sure of is that you don't have these bunched up in a particular spot so where you can't get the side panel back on you can see they stick out a little bit but when you push it on it with your hand you can see that there's some slack so they will compress and close but before we stick the back panel on we have to make sure that this thing actually works so we're going to do next is we're going to go ahead get the monitor keyboard mouse hooked up to this thing we're going to do our first test to see whether or not I broke it we built ourself a budget gaining chance method I broke it you signed a waiver okay so moment of truth it's put together it looks pretty cool we're gonna hit that power button and see if it actually boots oh we got a beat look at that we got a post yeah AJ's two cents did the amazing plugging-in apart so you guys see how easy it is to build a computer literally building a computer these days is nothing but putting together Legos the most important part you have to remember is be gentle with some of it I've seen some of you guys that practically shoehorn in some of these YouTube videos computer parts into a computer I understand you're excited I understand at your computer and you want to see how I want to play it on a play on my games I want to watch porn to night but you got to just be patient this stuff is fredrik and you can take some extra time like I did and make sure you put together you know the wiring in a nice neat matter check it out these white LEDs here it'd look really nice there is an awful lot of air swimming animals it's kind of a noisy computer but the guy who built this computer for doesn't care about the noise and it's just going to make sure everything stays nice and cool and I'm going to go ahead and get the operating side operating system loaded on the and we're going to put on some benchmarks we're going to go ahead and just see exactly how this thing benchmarks don't go anywhere that was really gay so guys just a chance I'm just going to do a quick overview of the computer into parts that go for my friend I wish spared no expense on this computer at all this I mean what would with the I Intel processor right here it's like the 39,000 K or something like that for the DES motherboard it was important that we had something to handle all this power so we went ahead look wiki the gigabyte where's that ETA b75 and a bunch of numbers you might matter we will mix in with a ballistics the ballistic they spelled that wrong it doesn't happen let's just have an X this is probably one the like messed up version so it has an excellent whatever and this dish bad boy right here this is our GTX 260 6 GTX 660 started sale and it has a header on it and its head your feet into a turbo and this is the intercooler in there and it's got two fins on the bottom right there which is really important because when you have the top of the line like this right here you have to properly cool this so that's why we call these fancies led's led's add like 100 megahertz to the speed of your computer I think I spit on the lens so you might want to watch out um this right here this right here is like a flux capacitor coil this this is actually very high-tech this isn't release on the market this is proprietary design simply for this computer and I I can't really talk too much about that NASA told me you know listen the wall that you use of this technology but I've said too much but anyway that I thought maybe you guys want a little bit of information about computers so you know it's the only cost like $4,800 lucky too bad and so oh I know the front this is like our this is like our intake right here mrs. JDM it came straight off a Honda and this computer is so badass then we actually needed a automotive parts to cool it so there you go hope you guys enjoy this is Jay's tution Christian bill
