2013-04-15
hey check fans what's going on man how you guys doing welcome back once again to the channel I'm Miller to your host and today we're going to be building the system that we talked about over on my new a TV show called docks corner so over on that channel I talked about a slash hackintosh slash PC and this is basically the build you guys can see there's all kinds of parts out here on the table we have tons of stuff PCIe boot drive water cooling lots of cool stuff dual SSD drives white power supply Y cables all across the table as you can see these all come via the lovely people that are over there at silverstone they've provided these we also have sponsors from kingston from gigabyte we have lots of sponsors in this awesome build so what are we gonna do today well today we're gonna just basically give you guys a bill blog we're not gonna give you guys a how-to installation guide type thing but we're gonna basically show you in steps what we're doing first we're gonna put the CPU in the cooler onto the motherboard then we'll put the motherboard into the case then we'll assemble and just do it in steps and as we do it until the system is done we're gonna make a compilation and at the end of the video that'll be what this is so this video will be basically us building this system which you guys can see next week on Doc's corner on new atv we're gonna be working together doing videos now so we're a little co-production here so this is the system like always you know guys any of these parts that you guys want to check out will be listed in the description below and with that said we're gonna go in and do part one as we install first the CPU and the water cooler onto the motherboard which you can see right here is one by gigabyte and then we're just gonna show you more and more as the days go on or actually is today it goes on so we're doing today but anyways let's go and let's start building this thing alright everybody so check it out so right now we have the motherboard here we've installed the i7 3770 CPU this is the water 2.0 pro for the people over at thermaltake this thing was very easy to install I know a lot of people out there go my god water cooling it's going to kill me but actually it's honestly easier than air cooling you want to challenge me on that go out and buy an air cooler go buy water cool that is one of those really cheap pup in penguins actually these type of things are much simpler put it back bracket on ply your thermal paste four screws in mounts simple and done you're talking about 15 to 20 minutes so this is step one we've got this on here now we're gonna go inside start getting the crease rate and move the rest of the parts in and then we'll give you an update as we go along alright everybody so check it out continuing on with our dual boot system now so far we have mounted the motherboard inside the system the water cooler everything's inside there we've also mounted all the drives which just push out my button on the side here so we have both the HyperX drives those are the two drives here on top and one thing cool about this is all the wiring is actually done internally and actually back on the rear side of the case I have to worry about any wire whatsoever just easy money all the way got the 2 2 terabyte drives installed the last two drives and I've still have an extra drive bay down here in case I want to get crazy so let me put these things back in here and as we are going and looking and discovering things about the build I discovered that that OCZ PCIe SSD is not going to be working very well with the Mac OS so we've decided to forgo using that and we're going to try something a little bit different this time so once I put all these things back in here I'll go ahead and just make sure this all lock you guys and you'll all make a little click sound I'm gonna go ahead and use this a data this is a little ms 8 128 gigabyte Drive I'm gonna go ahead and stall that and install the memory right now so you guys can see some live action stuff so with that said I'm gonna get up right now by the way all the cabling that we're using is by silverstone thanks very much mr. juan over there and we appreciate that so we're gonna move all this stuff out of the way and i'm gonna go ahead and take the system now and set it down inside of here alright everybody so here we have what we're gonna put the memory in here's the memory that we're gonna be using this is our kingston 16x HyperX what we usually use Kingston some of my favorite stuff you go ahead and break the seal right here let's check this out HyperX beast matching pair so I'm going to come down here now into the case open up a couple slots of my memory now these are only two sticks so I'm going to put one as close as I can to my CPU just go in there match up the slot take the memory simply push it down click easy money take the second stick bring in the third stick down and there's the memory you guys you see we're using white cables water coolers in now we're going to continue along the bill and we'll bring you an update in just a couple minutes alright folks so next up we're going to install the MSA to drive onto the skin of my motherboard so don't wants to get do a little mini unboxing right here as I take this package out here this time you're actually brain you'd see it this is a 128 gigabyte a data mm SATA go ahead pop that on this little box right there you guys can see it's a simple insertion so I'm gonna bring it down into the motherboard right here match the two holes up and then voila it plugs in and then you just pop it in just like you do laptop memory so easy going now they've got 128 gigabyte boot tribe that's mounted onto the motherboard see you in a minute okay folks so we're continuing along in the day now I know to you folks it just seems like a couple of minutes but actually you have two rounds of text but you're all day long getting this thing yeah now check out we've got the video card installed got the basic power PI installed everything's really good to go now we're gonna do the final touches of getting all the cables and everything taken care of then we get all the cable management so it looks perfectly totally utterly cool and clean then we'll be going on and doing the software now all in all this is taken probably about four and a half hours to do taking the time to make sure everything's done completely right one thing I want to say with the water core thing once again these type of things a lot simpler than buying a kit because you don't have to pretest prefilled check for leaks these things are Daren not the leak and everything and if it does leak whop you're gonna be getting your money those people they'll take care of it but it won't leak so that's pretty much it let's go ahead and let's finish the system up and then we'll show you guys the final bill before we do the software see in a few okay folks so here we are at the end of the day the system's completely built now it's gonna come the interesting part installing the different parts of software so we know it's possible there's just some tricky ways to go about doing it one thing I'm not quite sure but I'll be able to use this keyboard in both the Mac and the PC system I may not be able to do that I may have to actually have a Macintosh keyboard and mouse to be able to use wolven hackintosh versions of the system that I don't know I will find out because I'm now going to take the X effort and install the different types of software luckily I have Mac stuff around so that won't be a problem at all I'm gonna try just using this so the first thing I'm probably gonna do startup I have the two drives in there so I'm gonna use each one of those drives I think now as the primary drive so we have those two SSDs we talked about I'm gonna use one for the Mac one for the PC and for right now until we figure out the mod I'm just gonna go into the BIOS and a little BIOS and I'll make one the boot disable the other and that way there won't be any problems and it'll be clean and easy to do so with that said make sure you guys check it out he goes on new egg I'm gonna have my video going up on this as well but you guys don't want to make sure you miss that also if you're having an interest of purchasing this type of system all the links will be down below in the description or everything inside the system you can buy at new egg I think currently though the UGK might be out of stock but you can buy these parts separately so you can build yourself a system pretty much exactly the same as here so that's pretty much it folks we thank you guys for watching peace out much thanks to our tech Anthea Reynolds man he's the guy who always helps us do these things you guys know I have really bad died be so if I shake like crap and if I try to build most of this I'd probably break but that's why you got good friends right so peace out make sure you guys hit that like button and like that video here's buddy the doggy does know you love ya if you don't hit the like button he'll be sad and feel like you don't love him and not to break his heart you want to make sure you do so that said also be subscribed because the 100k contest is about to come to a head and we're giving away a whole computer plus another computer so don't miss out see you folks
