So what else do you guys want explained? GPU, RAM, VRM Design?? I also explain these things over my live streams and other general questions, so let's talk hardware at www.twitch.tv/jdtechgear
I was going to mention that, but my knowledge is very limited on power supplies and don't know if people would be interested enough beyond just knowing what's a well received PSU manufacturer and what's not
I'll definitely try and get my feet wet with learning the proper info, just gotta make sure I know it very well before recommending people to purchase other than knowing from other reviewers! Thanks for the input man, definitely gonna look into it
Hey JD, thanks for the video. Me being someone who knows how to build a PC, I had no issue understand this video. With that said... I linked the video to a friend, who knows nothing about building a computer and very little about motherboards as a whole. They told me that they could not understand the acronyms being used. Also, they said that the video was much to fast for them to follow along with. This left them confused, which made it difficult for them to grasp what you were explaining. This is not to say that this video isn't useful, because it is. Thanks again JD. 👍
Thanks Geo! And thanks for the feedback from your friend, do they know the basic components that go into a computer? I do have a video to reference that if it helps at all.
My friend is aware of the "basic" components, that make up a computer, but they would not attempt building a PC on their own. I was just curious to know, if they could understand an explanation of a motherboard's anatomy, by watching a video about it. Not necessarily this specific video, but any video on the subject. It seems that this isn't the case. Perhaps this has more to do with my friend's ability, to comprehend, or understand tutorials presented in video format and not who or how the video is presented. There are some people, who just don't and will never get it. No matter how much information they're given. I'm afraid my friend my be one of those people. LoL!
Nicely done JD. Lot's of folks have no clue at all as to what all the parts of their motherboards are and do, it's always nice to see a simple tutorial to explain it. I will be using this one as a teaching tool for my students, it covers all the bases well, thanks!
I liked the way you taught everything. I'm Hindi Language natively but understood very nicely because you told in a best flow. Thank you and please never change this speaking gesture.
I try to upload as much as I can, usually 1 or 2 times a week depending how long a video takes to make. I'm happy you found it helpful and good luck with the build!
This was a GREAT video, I have to watch this a couple more times. I needed this video to know things so detailed, because, when you're meaning say me I wouldn't know detailed things like you just explained THANK YOU JD. I have 1 question on a INTEL MOBO, why did it say AMD by the M.2 heat sink? top right on the board, well depending how you look at the board. But from the video it was top right.
wow I watched jayz two cents video and was more confused than when I started but this video did a great job of explaining it and I feel confident enough to upgrade my pc.
Very nice video, I’ve been searching for a video that explains all the parts on the motherboard. I personally would have been interested in small parts like Resistors etc, and my crazy head would have also been interested where the circuit paths go etc
Just discovered your channel after looking up motherboards explained. Much appreciated. Great overview. This comes quite a while after you originally posted this video, but I would love if you did a deeper dive into motherboards. Specifically regarding VRM's, PCIe slots and what x16,x8,or means as well and how the number of lanes directly correlates to your CPU. Also how overpopulating PCIe slots will inhibit performance. Thanks a bunch.
Great video man I hope you get discovered by more people soon. Good channels like this always get the jump in subs pretty quick lol. One question, I saw you said I can use my water pump header as a chassis fan, can that also be said for my m.2 fan header? Using a Asus Z370-E.
This was very helpful. I'm doing all my research to begin PC gaming and building. I've been researching all components separately and taking my notes. My question next would be comparing motherboards. What would be high end features? What motherboards would you avoid? Does the performance of the PC change with different boards? Thanks for the work you did here!
Thanks James, glad I could help! The differences between the high end boards and midrange usually rely with its overclocking capabilities and power control, better LAN connection, more NVME slots and so forth. The big thing is power delivery and what not to high end chips. That requires a decent amount of research to begin with. Just finding the features you need vs want to have is a good place to start.
Very nice video, thank you very much. I am always scared when holding a motherboard. I think that if I touch it from the bottom I might break something.
The reason that you should use the topmost slot for your graphics card is not because it is less travel time between the CPU, it is because usually the topmost slot is pci x16 slot, where as other slots might be x8 or x4, mean that the other slots have less pins on them
overall a great video, i came here to learn more about chipsets as i sorta did? but i was also pleased to leave this video learning more about vrms aswell as other info of the mother board i didnt know about. thank you!
hey idk if you are going to respond since this video is older but when I built my pc I accidentally knocked off the heat sink on one of the vrms and just kinda put it back on. idk if i broke something or not lol
I love the way you explain things, made me understand way better! 1 question though, could you go into detail about hoe pcie slots work? For example how would I know if a motherboard can fit a graphics card, a wifi card, and a m.2 sad or if it would be limited. Thanks!
Can we get more videos explaining the Motherboard Anatomy? I want to upgrade my motherboard, but I dont know what to search for. I am not sure how I know if I'm getting a newer and greater version of the current motherboard I have now. What should I be looking for when trying to find a new motherboard? I would really appreciate it, and think someone other than myself has ran along this question.
Hey man, thanks. This helped. I'm more looking into getting info on VRM. I'll look through your vids to see if I can grab more help on understanding that.
I'm in a dilemma. I am practically poor but bought a cheap motherboard that I don't have the money to replace. It was completely missing the cpu socket. What would you recommend I do?
I know what the red and green circles on the motherboard but what are the orange and blue things pls tell me I only have a single audio jack so can I plug it in to the orange or blue ones someone pls help
I was never sure if it was alright to plug case fans into the aio pump header and the opt cpu fan header. I could never find a solid answer online either. Wish I’d seen this video before buying fan splitters.
can u plz suggest which is the best budget desktop MOBO without onboard inbuilt graphics that supports am3+ & ddr3 rams ?...i dont play games and intend to overclock.
Hello JD. Thank you for the video. Got a question. I’m looking for the best motherboard for a mining rig that 1) supports multiple GPUs and 2) that I can over clock. I would appreciate your personal opinion/recommendation on board for nvidia and AMD please
Damn, wish I could see the board a bit better. Really hard to see the black slots when the whole board is black. At some points I didn’t actually know what you were pointing to.
I am going to college for game making/ game desgining but they don't go into deatil like this and I wonder why? I also I have autism so it effect my learning.
Hello How're you I hope everything is okay I have Q what's the different between B Series and Z Series or A Series in motherboard for EX B450 and Z490 Thanks
I badly need some help here. Im a sick son of a noob when it comes to PC building. What mobo can you refer when I have an Intel i5 3rd gen and ASUS ROG Strix RX570? PLS HELPME 😭
So what else do you guys want explained? GPU, RAM, VRM Design??
I also explain these things over my live streams and other general questions, so let's talk hardware at www.twitch.tv/jdtechgear
Talk about one of the most over-looked and underrated piece of equipment, power source.
I was going to mention that, but my knowledge is very limited on power supplies and don't know if people would be interested enough beyond just knowing what's a well received PSU manufacturer and what's not
Hehe...GET them interested. Search diff. power sources, rails etc..I think you'll enjoy it.
I'll definitely try and get my feet wet with learning the proper info, just gotta make sure I know it very well before recommending people to purchase other than knowing from other reviewers! Thanks for the input man, definitely gonna look into it
I vote for VRM!!
i have been educated today
I'd love for a video explaining the VRMs! Thoroughly enjoy your explanations :D
Glad I could help and I'm on it 👍
check out LTT Ultra Nerd edition, they explain a whole lot more deep than this
2:00 vid start
Thx
Tnx

I'm afraid my friend my be one of those people. LoL!
What I always loved about your channel (and got me to subscribe) is how clearly you explain things.
Love leaving a video feeling educated!
Nicely done JD. Lot's of folks have no clue at all as to what all the parts of their motherboards are and do, it's always nice to see a simple tutorial to explain it. I will be using this one as a teaching tool for my students, it covers all the bases well, thanks!
Thanks Michael! I didn't know you had students, what kind of students? I hope they find this one useful!!
I teach beginning computer classes for underprivileged kids in NYC, started doing it after I retired, it's fun 🤘
Yes, exactly. I never looked at a MoBo up close and personal in my hands, but I want to build one so bad.
I liked the way you taught everything. I'm Hindi Language natively but understood very nicely because you told in a best flow. Thank you and please never change this speaking gesture.
You upload often! Keep it up and this was really informative! I just bought a b350f motherboard for my ryzen build, so this was helpful. Thanks!
I try to upload as much as I can, usually 1 or 2 times a week depending how long a video takes to make. I'm happy you found it helpful and good luck with the build!
I started a bee position in Desktop Support (no experience) and this was a great video. You earned a new Subscriber

You are a natural big dog. Never loose that spark . Awesome job
wow I watched jayz two cents video and was more confused than when I started but this video did a great job of explaining it and I feel confident enough to upgrade my pc.
one of the most in depth motherboard video
Excellent review of a very confusing part of a PC. Well not as confusing anymore! Great job JD!
Subscribed. I like your style, thorough, thoughtful and not yelling into the mic!
please explain CPU's next because I don't really get them right now. Thank you! awesome video by the way!
Thanks dude! I made this video a while back but hopefully what you're looking for th-cam.com/video/Wry_LxDba1M/w-d-xo.html
Great Video man , i would love to see the more advanced video on the VRM's. Thanks
Awesome, I'll make sure to get it done!
I just started this video and already the intro is telling us what he will explain. I like this video already.
Very nice video, I’ve been searching for a video that explains all the parts on the motherboard. I personally would have been interested in small parts like Resistors etc, and my crazy head would have also been interested where the circuit paths go etc
Been here since 2k you’ve come so far 👍
Wow, thank you, seriously. Thanks for sticking around!

Thanks a ton dude! I hope so, I definitely put a bunch of effort into it! And I believe you should be fine using the m.2 header :)
You're my new main teach pal
Yes!! I want to know more about VRMs.....

This is a really great refresher course and you seem very proficient in the subject. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Very nice video, thank you very much. I am always scared when holding a motherboard. I think that if I touch it from the bottom I might break something.
love the video. very helpful, i'm planning on building my own very first PC soon. :D
Good luck!
Useful 11 mins of my life
Awesome vid man, its just what i was looking for. Thnx 👍
The reason that you should use the topmost slot for your graphics card is not because it is less travel time between the CPU, it is because usually the topmost slot is pci x16 slot, where as other slots might be x8 or x4, mean that the other slots have less pins on them
The video starts at 1:35
I want to watch this so when I get out of highschool and get into college, I can make a motherboard of my own and experiment along the way
Thanks a lot I've passed my class already.
Excellent, easy to understand video! Thank you so much for making this.
this was really helpful thank you!!
Just found your channel. Great vids w plenty of Info! Would love to see a more in-depth look into the VRM components & capabilities.
I’m about to switch motherboard from a prebuilt and definitely wanted to know my new motherboard better
Great explanations! Thanks 🙏🏻
finally i know all the pin headers and stuff, thank you.
This video is SO helpful. THANK YOU
Great explanation! Greetings from argentina 😃 (hope to be able to understand this world so i can fix my cpu fan haha).
More video like this please! Thank you!
overall a great video, i came here to learn more about chipsets as i sorta did? but i was also pleased to leave this video learning more about vrms aswell as other info of the mother board i didnt know about. thank you!
hey idk if you are going to respond since this video is older but when I built my pc I accidentally knocked off the heat sink on one of the vrms and just kinda put it back on. idk if i broke something or not lol
I ve learned something today. Thanks
Liked, shared, subscribed. Thank You!
I love the way you explain things, made me understand way better!

360p squad!!
Awesome video as always dude
Ayyy thanks man!!
This is a good video...am just a beginner. Am in love with your lesson
pdfelement is yearly sub, is there a way to buy it out-right? I dont want to pay yearly I don't want to be married to the developers forever
His voice crushed my ears
i scartch the front of my mobo a little as i reinstall new gpu my hand slip its just little tho. is it still gonna work ?
Very informative.
Can we get more videos explaining the Motherboard Anatomy? I want to upgrade my motherboard, but I dont know what to search for. I am not sure how I know if I'm getting a newer and greater version of the current motherboard I have now. What should I be looking for when trying to find a new motherboard? I would really appreciate it, and think someone other than myself has ran along this question.
Hi bro thanks a lot, this is explained thoroughly. Can you make a video for connections to its parts in Mobo, plz thank you
Hey!! Did you make a better VRM video?
Hey man, thanks. This helped. I'm more looking into getting info on VRM. I'll look through your vids to see if I can grab more help on understanding that.
thanks for the good info
btw: if i want to change to 16 gb ram for example: do i need to do something first or just tuck the ram in?
Great video! Can you also explain other ports on the motherboard that are not so commonly used.
Thanks !!! Subscribed!
Would love to see a video on how to build a large JBOD case. Everyone runs out of disk space.
very best tutorial thanks
This is besttt video on youtube what every connector does and where to install but i ask what does the "JRGB1" its on Msi B450 Tomahawk Max?
I'm in a dilemma. I am practically poor but bought a cheap motherboard that I don't have the money to replace. It was completely missing the cpu socket. What would you recommend I do?
I know what the red and green circles on the motherboard but what are the orange and blue things pls tell me I only have a single audio jack so can I plug it in to the orange or blue ones someone pls help
Would you explain about tv motherboard and diagnosing it too please
I was never sure if it was alright to plug case fans into the aio pump header and the opt cpu fan header. I could never find a solid answer online either. Wish I’d seen this video before buying fan splitters.
Great Video! Thank you!
any new ones coming soon? like an updated one or even a more "advanced" ?
so if i have multiple fans daisychained together, can the connection for all of them terminate into just one fan slot on the motherboard?
What an awesome vid!
can u plz suggest which is the best budget desktop MOBO without onboard inbuilt graphics that supports am3+ & ddr3 rams ?...i dont play games and intend to overclock.
Thanks. This is a good video.
I’m really facing a small annoying problem which is the LED SWITCH cable. I’m not finding any place to plug it into.
Hello JD. Thank you for the video. Got a question. I’m looking for the best motherboard for a mining rig that 1) supports multiple GPUs and 2) that I can over clock. I would appreciate your personal opinion/recommendation on board for nvidia and AMD please
How do you hold a motherboard. I only hold it by the heatsincks. When I watch people build it seems they touch the sides and back of the motherboard.
Very educational, thank you!
My bios shows CPU over voltage error, where on the mother board can I find the faulty part?
*anyone else watching this while on quarenteen*
Thank you✌
Man, may i know what course do I get to learn and create motherboard and of course the whole computer
when plugged, if board touches chassis for some reason, is the board dead for sure?
Damn, wish I could see the board a bit better. Really hard to see the black slots when the whole board is black. At some points I didn’t actually know what you were pointing to.
oh look, it's the guy that likes compoters
I du lyke me sum compooters
Subtitles would be useful especially for newbies like myself who are hearing some of these terms for the first time.
Thank you for the feedback!
So where should i start? Im teaching myself.
I tried going into my control center on my iPhone and realized I was watching the video upside down. I kept it that way actually.
I am going to college for game making/ game desgining but they don't go into deatil like this and I wonder why? I also I have autism so it effect my learning.
Hello
How're you I hope everything is okay
I have Q what's the different between B Series and Z Series or A Series in motherboard for EX B450 and Z490
Thanks
BRUH THANK YOU, I AM FROM THE FUTURE.
Very helpful :D Thanks
whats PU510r label means in a motherboard? help!! i need to replace that
Do I need to use 12 pin connector for cpu power or use 8?
CPU connectors are usually either 8 or 8+8
I badly need some help here. Im a sick son of a noob when it comes to PC building. What mobo can you refer when I have an Intel i5 3rd gen and ASUS ROG Strix RX570? PLS HELPME 😭
My onmy question what does the wifi do like is it integrated wifi or wireless wifi
Very helpful 👍🏻
Why they coloured the PCB with a black one ?? Green ore blue will be much better
Excellent
