I have been watching this build guide playlist up to this point, it’s been the most helpful out of all the videos out there so far, i hadn’t had a chance to comment but thank you so much for making such a structured and informative guide! I will continue to watch ^^
If the stock cooler provided with the CPU was adequate, why purchase an alternative unit? I understand that you say the third party cooler performs better, but if the CPU doesn't require it a better performing cooler, why spend more money, even a nominal amount of $20? I don't mean to sound condescending, I'm just genuinely curious so that I can fine tune my selection process when building my first PC. Thanks for the guide so far. Intelligible and thorough information, delivered without unnecessary hype and flair.
Good question and one I should have addressed in this video. For CPUs that don't really require a better cooler than the stock cooler, the benefits of using even a budget-friendly single tower cooler are that aftermarket coolers typically run quieter and will probably offer better aesthetics. Of course, they will also offer better cooling, but what that means in real-world terms might just be that the stock cooler will keep the processor going for 12 years, whereas an after market cooler might have kept it going for 15 years ---which at that point, it wouldn't be likely that anyone would still be using that processor either way. But, there's still some peace of mind to be had in running your components cooler.
@@TechGuided Ah, I hadn't considered looks and sound, but that makes perfect sense. And am I to understand, that even if kept sufficiently cool during use, marginal differences in overall heat accumulation on a CPU (or any component, for that matter) during its lifetime will have a compounding effect over time, so that a CPU kept ever so slightly cooler will indeed last longer, or perhaps perform better? Thanks for a prompt and clear answer.
@@jackdarko4486 I'm not the person to give a definitive answer on this, but I believe that is the general theory. I don't know if anyone has ever done an extensive test to see how much of a temperature difference would have to exist to where you would see a noticeable reduction in lifespan. It would be interesting to see the results of such a test. But, I also don't think it will ever really matter to 99% of consumers, as even if they operated their CPUs consistently at the upper-end of the manufacturer's recommended temperature range, the vast majority of users would have need to upgrade their CPU to meet new computing demands before they would ever run into the issues that may occur from running their CPU at those higher temperatures. This is a really good response found in a Reddit thread on the topic, though, coming from someone who claims to be a semiconductor reliability engineer: www.reddit.com/r/askscience/comments/197hhj/do_computer_parts_perform_better_or_last_longer/c8lkswl/
Man I'm currently trying to to figure out a pc build since my 8 year old prebuilt expectedly isn't able to keep up with new games, I'm shooting to move up to 1440p from 1080p keeping only storage and ram since everything else is obsolete while being decently future proof. A buddy of mine has a i5-13600k he is willing to give to me so that's settled while all the other parts are currently overwhelming me.
Just finally decided to purchase an AMD Ryzen 7 5800X unlocked, if I’m understanding this correctly. I need to find a cooler that fits an am4 socket, But also be able to fit inside the case and mobo?
It should. It really depends on how accurate the case manufacturer is. My guess is that most manufacturers will err on the side of caution and if they say 160mm is the max, it would really be something like 162m. Which specific case and cooler are you considering?
It's so much cheaper to build it your self then buying a pre built.....everyone shpuld be building their own. There are plenty videos step by step on how to build a PC.

Awesome, glad it has helped you out! Thank you for watching!
Appreciate the informative video man, this is my first time building so this video was helpful
Very useful series , Thanks man
when living in places with hot climates does getting a cooler become important?
Do you play outside? No AC?
having a cooler is always important
I think if the climate is hotter it’s more important to get a cooler. Did you really think?
It would be a better idea
ohh, this is really helpful, thank you!

What do you reco for a 5700x not planning to overclock but i live in a tropical country and want to run my pc for 24/7?
Thanks so much
areas of improvement: crazy room echo - move mic closer. Detailed timelines - I don't care about liquid and want to skip it.

yes
whom cpu cooler would be best for r5 7600x
A single tower, single fan CPU cooler will work fine for the 7600X. Thermalright and ID-COOLING have some decent options that will work well for ~$20.
Will a case with 160 mm cooler clearance and 159 mm cooler work? How much extra clearance is needed?
It should. It really depends on how accurate the case manufacturer is. My guess is that most manufacturers will err on the side of caution and if they say 160mm is the max, it would really be something like 162m.

15% bottleneck with 5600x and 7800 xt. That is not good
For 1440P gaming the 5600X will create a 15% bottleneck?
@@TechGuided oh, sorry, I calculated it for 1080p...
@@folk_the_animatorwhat does that mean? I chose 5600 (no x) and am playing at 1080p will it bottleneck
@@ZephyrWrites Yes, it will. 7800xt is for 1440p, not for 1080p. And 5600 is a little bit worse than the x version.
@@folk_the_animator oh, i see. i think i misunderstood the initial comment but thanks
