OVERKILL i3 6100/RX 480 PC Build Log

2016-09-10
part four of the CPU core series will be up soon folks I have a lot of data that I need to compile and I can't progress any further than I already have until all that sorted out so stay tuned for that but for now hopefully to suffice I have an I three 6100 PC built to show off to you I built this one well actually my friend built this one almost entirely by himself I was just kind of filming I like doing that kind of thing I've done that before on the channel he's never built a PC before so I'd like showing people Hey look this isn't really that hard it looks complex but it's it's not and that's that's pretty much what he figured out at the end of this so enjoy this one all right so this is Destin's first time ever building PC I love doing these kinds of builds just kind of filming and watching other people do this it reminds me of my first time too and the only only part you'll need is the CPU itself so the fan you can just kind of throw off to the side there she is and all her glory right you're gonna put her in so this hinge right here push that down and over yep and then just go ahead and lift it up there you go okay now you're see if he's gonna rest right in there I was wondering if you were gonna figure it out the first time no other way keep going there you go set it right in there good job alright go ahead and close it back and then just like that and then now it's gonna take some force don't be afraid keep going keep going that's okay keep going and then tuck her underneath it's always a scary part alright you just installed a CPU Destin yeah yeah all right CPUs installed next I guess we can tackle the RAM so four dims each of these holds four gigs of DDR 4 so we ramp it all four of them into all four of the slots here and the only thing you got to make sure that you do is line up the notch here with the notch on each of the dims all right now take both corners and push very hard perfect just like that and then do the rest do the same thing for the other three I like that red on red action got going on mom man I win so hard now was it yeah that's pretty much like half your build right there let's go ahead and tackle the case issue we have an anodized AI crystal that's a tempered glass case so go ahead and haul that thing over here oh yeah I'll tell you what put on a cheer I just pissed off everybody else downstairs it ain't light is it alright so this is a cracking x61 from NZXT 280 millimeter all-in-one radiator combo wondering why the heck were water cooling an i3 6100 well my friends he'll find out very soon yeah so we're going to keep those in there all four of them and then now this this is going to be a difficult part so this has to go up there there you go oh the screw off no idea oh okay so radiator secure it up top and just kind of chilling right now so let's go ahead install the power supply next all we have to do is just insert this into the back of the PC like so and then secure it on the front here okay so next time we reinstall is this armor 240 gig solid-state drive from a pacer this is going to be our only form of storage in the build but seeing as though we have three spaces upgrade SSDs and then also hard disk drive bay down there which you can also install SSDs in we're gonna plenty of room to upgrade should we ever need to but fry now 240 is plenty here you go okay looking good all right sweet so we had a lot of the small stuff already out of the way I guess what we can do next is merge the motherboard to the case are you ready sir great ok got our back plate for the g3 that's for you I guess I'll take I'll take that I'm gonna put this go put it yeah all right so it's gonna take some force I say that everybody who helps build pcs is like a stubborn part right here so you're gonna put it just like that into here next thing go ahead and grab the motherboard behind you and now you're going to orient it in the case in such a way that the peripherals here on the back aligned with the i/o shield and in a way that this Center little stand up that's the one I use anyway goes right there goody hain't bed and then it perfect so let's get the motherboard screws hold out there real quick oh hey that's so much better that's so much better make sure the NZXT logo is facing up so just the same way the writing is and you're gonna slide each of those hinges no no the turn turn it that way okay well mmmm-hmmm like like that perfect just like that okay so we have the a gigabyte AMDR x 480 here this is a reference cooler and star destin you go good move that cable up your way oh whoops I had it yep so you're gonna want them it'll stay on the backside of it yep but you're gonna want to just basically insert it yeah there you go you did it alright destiny got the graphics card installed now we need to power it so look for a six plus two pin power connector in the back and see if you can find folks don't make me come back there no no it's already plugged into the power supply so weave that through here so go ahead and just connect that one straight up there it is okay so that's installed what else are we looking for your 24 pin and the eight pin up top cool it's all black and the last one is the eight pin it's gonna say CPU on it it's gonna funnel up through this whole top okay we skip the wire because that's boring and tempered-glass time okay back panel secured and they go ahead and flip it around let's go ahead and install the front panel and we will call it a day all right it's so like the tint is so dark you can't even see the inside I mean without lights in there so these four fans have LEDs and then so does our cooler and the front oh yeah power cable right here I have big plans for this PC believe it or not I plan on overclocking the i3 6100 using the base clock method which you can still do video right here to verify that it is four months old but I still have computers that are running just fine with the base clock overclock still active so you can check that video out or you can stay tuned for the next video to follow this one and in that video I'll show you how to do it again just to verify that it is still possible so if you don't want to buy a case QC P which is considerably more expensive than the non K counterpart and you can opt for rather than a three or an i-5 non K processor and overclock it using this method there are a few compromises you have to you have to make in order to do that but in the long run I think it'll be worth saving the extra dough I mean who doesn't want to save dough right so stay tuned for that stay tuned for part 4 the CPU core series if you like this video be sure to give it a thumbs up give it a thumbs down if you do feel the queen opposite or if you hate everything about life be sure to click
