As someone that also doesn’t now wtf they’re doing when it comes to technology, I find this very comforting
Props to all the boyfriends and girlfriends out there clutching by helping us all build PCs😂
Yas !
I helped my girlfriend with her ryzen build. I was like you'll be fine just dont drop the porcessor 😂
@@denniskarlsson6173 aw bless, my fella forgot to mention when tryna screw the cpu fan, the back needed to be held in place, I was there for a good hour crying because it wouldn't go in lmao.
hearty salute and admiration
Yea here's a tip, don't build on a surface that can build up static electricity such as your bed, make sure to build it on something such a wooden table since it can't conduct electricity then.
ESD isn't a huge deal in general, and that's not how static electricity works anyways.
Static builds up when your components are separated from the ground by an insulator. To avoid static buildup, you ideally WANT to build on something conductive. There's a reason ESD bracelets and antistatic work surfaces are intentionally connected to a ground point.
If there's any reason to not build on the bed, it's because materials like fabric are great for building up a static charge, and it also doesn't conduct that charge away to ground, so you can't get rid of the charge.
Not that it's a serious reason, I built my last PC crawling around on a carpet in the middle of winter
@@JamieR your body cant produce enough static electricity to fry a part
@@lazer.evxety4508 show a proof. show and post an evidence. :) :D xD
It takes a high amount of static to damage the parts but you shouldn't be building on a bed
This is exactly what I just commented lol 😂
This is gonna be me in a couple of weeks 😅 Trying to build up my motivation now lol. Thank you for this video, it was great!
Aww thanks! You got this! I believe in you!
You should really be doing this on a flat surface, like a table.
You're not wrong! Haha I thought my random wooden plank would suffice... guess I was wrong lol
Ngl....i've built more systems on my bed than i have on tables 😂
@@marcoslara1802 LOL yessss!!
@@marcoslara1802 Me tooo 乁( •_• )ㄏ
why?i built my pc on my bed,just grounding yourself often,it's fine
Oh my gosh, I’m right there with you girl! I’m looking into building my own pc atm and I’m already stressed looking at the prices much less building the damn thing😭
OMG YES!! Honestly it's a struggle!!! LOL
I've built a computer or two and did stuff with laptop s and all the edvice I can give you is too stay calm go as slow as you need and read user manual s if needed😀
also id recommend in the days / weeks leading up to building a pc watch pc building videos religiously. Just everyday watch 1-3 pc full build guides about pcs in your price range
@@swoovy4962 yeah
It took me a day to build my pc so I suggest build it on a weekend and do it slow and precise. Don’t rush anything
TH-cam recommendations really called me broke in different languages. :(
Aww haha no!! I definitely saved up for quite a while to be able to afford all this stuff :)
@@erikaleilatv how much did it cost?
You nailed how daunting and rewarding it is for a beginner 👍 Plus, despite the challenges you’ve kept it fun, hilarious and enjoyable. Awesome video!
I build my own computers and am constantly living vicariously watching others build theirs constantly and I have to say I never so throughly enjoyed or laughed so much as I did watching yours. Kudos!
Haha thank you so very much!
Kudos. It's a thrill to watch a newbie put together their first machine. You did a hell of a job getting it all together in less than four hours with nothing but phone help.
The feeling of accomplishment once you get all the crazy array of parts that make up a modern system and it all comes to life is second to none imo.
Actually super keen to build my first tower in over a decade soon, just need all the bits to arrive.
Yay! Have fun with your build!
This actually did more to help me get over my anxiety than any tech-tuber guide video! Thanks! And great job!! 😊
You did really well for a first time build! We all make dumb mistakes but as long as it works and you had fun it's all good ^^
Aww thank you so much! Yeah it was so much fun haha
Do you know any safe websites to but windows for cheap?
you did good and made it look easy lol. im going to be building my first gaming pc and i feel like its going to take me all day. i never built one just been watching pc build videos over and over. cant wait to see how mine will come out. nice build though 🙌
Yesss!! So pretty 😍 i recently built my first PC too but with the help of my bf. props to you for doing it by yourself cause i would’ve cried the whole time lol. Definitely gonna follow you on twitch! ☺️
OMG that's amazing! Haha girl I did NOT do it on my own. My friend needed to walk me step by step haha but hey we did it!! Aww thank you you're so sweet
Graphic cards are so expensive now I can't wait till the prices go back to retail price.
Thats literaly everyone not just you
@@Balkanboibg Bruh what??
@@Nina.444 ure not the only one waiting for graphics card to go to the retail price (also are u bulgarian cuz ur name sounds bulgarian lol)
@@Balkanboibg yea ik hopefully in 2022 its goes back to normal and no I wish lolol
@@Nina.444 only prayers brudda thankfully i already got my 1050 ti last month at a good price (second hand)
Building a computer for the First Time is an awesome experience!
Gratz on your First PC!
Great job! Putting a PC together for the first time is pretty nerve wracking but you were able to do it by yourself and that is amazing!
You are so sweet thank you so much!!
Good job with your first PC build. The first time can definitely be nerve wracking for sure. And under 4 hours is also pretty good for doing it with just a little help over the phone.
Erika there is nothing that beats the feeling of using a computer you built. Great job on this - no matter what your experience level we all feel the things you felt in this video and have that “did I put that in right” feeling. I only want to encourage you to keep building, keep doing new things. It’s a wonderful experience.
I've put together so many desktops and to this day I still get nervous handling some stuff. Congrats on building your first pc :)
Haha omg yeah it's scary because the parts seem so fragile! Thanks so much
Same, the worst for me is still getting the CPU fan down onto that mount. It's designed to fit tight, but it always feels like you're about to snap the mobo in half. Everything else slides and clicks in really easily these days. And the cables all have standardized fits for the different types and only go in 1 direction so that has made things easier too. Cable management can still be a pain though.
So Fresh Video! Great work, Erika!
Congrats to your first pc build, you did well! and welcome to PcMasterrace!
Thank you so much!! :)
you did really well for building ur first pc! great job ❤
I love when newbies make the videos of their first time struggle, it gives other newbies (like me) the confidence to build their own stuff
This is hilarious, loved it.. kinda reminds me of me building my first PC a few years back. The only thing is try to work on the cable management if you have not done so already :)
Wow, really from the first moment I saw it, I was delighted... I like it a lot, I'm in love... and I like the PC too
Loved the enthusiasm throughout the build ... I'm planning on building my first PC towards the end of the year and I feel like I'll be a reck when I'm actually doing it so seeing you have a positive outlook while building it is a confidence booster to an extent 💪 ofc there's always that "shit ...if I break this $400+ part..." I'm the back of a person's head especially in the first time 😭😂
Your hilarious 😂. Great video.
grats on the build.. and GPU..thats a lucky find. always nice to see first time builds
Great watch - I just posted my first build and I'm glad I'm not the only one who got nervous and excited to turn it on and see all the colours haha
Lancool II ftw! One of the best functional cases available. Components list look good. Hope you enjoy your new rig.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that
That was fun to watch since it was your first build! :)
Love you!
So lucky it turned on first time! After many years building PCs they can be infuriating, totalling it up unexplained glitches have cost me years in wasted time troubleshooting! Congrats on a great looking system you’ve built!
I appreciate it thank you!
good job! I'm on my 2nd build and i love it!! kudos to you for going all the way! I'm still learning.
Oh nice! Yeah I'm still learning as well haha it's a tough project for sure. Congrats on your 2nd build!!
Wow! Even though this video should serve as a checklist of what NOT to do when building a computer, I still commend you for doing it!
Haha yes I completely agree! Do NOT follow how I build my PC lol Thank you so much
@@erikaleilatv you are the example how not to do it, but the real evidence no problem if you do! ooops!
Excellent Video! It's enjoyable watching a novice build a PC because you represent about 80%+ of the people that want to build their own PC.
you literally looked like me my first time building - there was just so many small things buttons wires knobs lol!!! i had 10 manuals from boxes and screws where i forgot where they went lmao!!!! btw love the video!!! so cool!
Watching you building it was so interesting and so different.
Had me clutching my heart when I heard the cable against the Fan…. But still, good job.
It's always a huge feeling of accomplishment when someone builds their first pc and it turns on and boots.
It used to be a LOT harder to do, but they've done a good job of making it pretty clear where things go these days. The worst part is still shoving the CPU cooler down onto that mount. Always feel like you're gonna break the motherboard. :D
Props to you for building your first gaming pc . I’d be way to afraid to do it.
Good job and very amusing!
As someone that builds custom gaming pc s for a living this video made my day 🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏
Really love this video. Enjoy to see what u did 😂
24:12 That sound when cables of zip ties touched the fans almost gives me a hearth attack :)
This was fun to watch. 🙂
hey girl!! i just built my first pc last night! (: your parts and build look so good, have fun!!
Omg thank you so much!! Congrats on building your first one
What's cool is if you upgrade on a somewhat periodic basis, you can use the parts you take out to put together a hand-me-down computer, either so you have a second PC sitting around, for a sibling, or just to have as a backup.
Doing this for a brother right now.
I like this idea!
I used my surplus parts to build myself a solid little media server for my home network. Only new parts I added to it was a pair of 8TB drives. Though looking to upgrade those to at least 12TB drives now and maybe more. It just sits in the utility room plugged into the router, no monitor or anything. Remote access it.
Congrats on your first PC build!
Thank you so much!! :)
You did better than the dude from the verge.
Honestly for a first, the fact that it works IM PROUD OF YOU GIRL
Haha THANK YOU SO MUCH
A year later I'm finding this and I have to say I resonate with this woman so much. I bought a pretty cheap prebuilt pc that's probably AWFUL but I was too scared and too broke to try and build one lmao. I am not well versed in anything gaming pc 😂
Seeing you struggle to understand the bottom and top of the case really made my brain flop 😂 but I hope you had fun and you’re doing good ❤️
LOL the struggle was too real haha thank you so much
You doing an amazing job btw for your first time Nice!!!!!
Thank you so much! Means a lot!! :)
No problem
So funny LOL
My suggestion, you must add SSD N.Vme or M.2 and installing the operating system on that one
so you can see the performance difference on your PC
Lancool 2, great choice! Very nice build
You did a good effort in building your PC! Good job.
I wonder if I could use your video for a reaction and see how I would react on your build?
Haha thank you! And absolutely! I would love to see it! lol
Nice one! I feel like watching a horror film. Great Video!
ive never been so on edge and worried for someone building a pc!!! i really advise on watching as many pc building videos on youtube before even thinking about doing it! also id say, buy some more thermal paste and take your cpu cooler off and scraping the old stuff off with alcohol then add new paste then put it back the right way up. also maybe move the rear fan cable to the other side. but well done! :-)
Nice job! Well done. I would flip that cooler around though. It would bug me being upside down.
I can’t wait to build mine very soon 😩🥰🥰 you did really good congrats on building your first pc boo 😙
Ahh thank you! Good luck on your build!
Why am I watching this 3am in the morning? I have a good knowledge in Computers. lol don’t know what to say about your build but at least it posted. Grats
Haha thank you!
PC master race, well done but this was so scary to watch.
Nice rig, and no blood sacrifice! xD
Welcome to the club.
Haha thank you!! Yes I'd say it was a success for sure lol
the build is so pretty! and so is she 😍
Great job young lady. I hope you enjoyed it.
i really enjoy ur video!!!! hope can make more fun video stuff...
Thanks so much!
Watching this makes me very anxious even though it’s not my pc xD
She is so adorable. I love the video.
It's so beautiful.
Impressive....don't think I'd have the guts to build a pc myself...mybe one day. Fun video!!
You can practice on an old PC you may have laying around. That's what I did when I started getting interested in computers. You don't need anything fancy or even functional to do this. Bonus points if you can get it to work again.
This is such a nice vid .
I watch many pc build maybe 1000s and i can say this one is one of my favorite💯💪
You did great!
when you click the power button and it turns on but then the fans sounds like they're gonna blow up it makes me laugh really hard🤣🤣🤣
i love it!
Im jealous with your gpu cause me don't have, but I am saving for it. Anyways congrats on your new and amazing pc!
Just keep saving, you'll get there!! Thank you so much!
🤣 this sums up my first pc build experience. I honestly don't know how it still booted up after how rough I was 🤣
congratulations for your first build!! i hope you enjoy it a lot and play a lot!!! as a suport tech, i will recomend you to buy a "GPU support Bracket or Brace" , because the weight of the GPU with time can broke his slot in the motherboard!!! a lot of customer came to me with their broken GPU Slot ( PCIe slot in mothermoard) " Again congrats for your build!!!!
Oh cool I'll definitely look into that thanks so much! :)
great choice on parts. that's an awesome PC!
Logan should have suggested getting an M.2 SSD. they plug directly into the motherboard and dont require cables. That's 2 less cables to deal with.
Lol looks fun. 🙂
I'll try it.
Hilarious and painful at the same time 😂😂😂
That was absolutely brutal to watch! At least you're cute. Hopefully you've learned a lot more about computers. It's not that hard, people are just intimidated, but all the stuff is mostly made to fit and they try hard to idiot proof them with keyed sockets, etc.
It's nice to learn new stuff everyday; you know
Congratz with you new PC :) Actually you did pretty well. Everyone can do it and it's all about patient and knowing each parts. I've been building PC's for over 20 years and I work as a PC builder for a huge company. Everyone has to start somewhere and be proud of your work ;) I would how ever suggest installing a M.2 disc Windows at some point. The speed is ridiculously much faster than a basic 2.5 SSD. But, yeah it does the job ofcourse. :) and you can always go back and work on your PC. Cablemanagment, installing og removing parts etc. Enjoy your PC :)
The best part about a PC is when you need a bigger HD, you can buy a new one and put it in there. When you need more ram, or better ram comes out, you can just swap it out. When newer GPUs come out, you can just swap it out. When newer/faster CPUs come out, just swap it out. Every now and then new technologies come out requiring a more substantial change, like a new motherboard, but that isn't as often and you don't necessarily have to upgrade that and CPU super often.
This is literally me few months ago when i build my first PC 🤣🤣,it was really fun and funny at the same time,even though i already knew something about building a PC from watching bitwit's and local youtuber tutorial on how do i build a pc correctly,by the way have fun with your games 😀
Yay congrats on your first PC!! Haha thanks so much!!
Yoo I basically have the same built as you. But I got the case in black. awesome job btw
Actually, you'd wanna do the stuff involving the motherboard before placing it in the tower (the CPU, cooling, RAM etc.) inside of the box (after getting the plastic off of course LOL) because a. the box is supposed to be non-conductive and b. it'll protect the bottom of the motherboard... and also I wouldn'tve worn a sweater as they can be very conductive or at least worn one of those grounding bracelets since static can damage the components. Also I wouldn'tve assembled it on the bed but I totally get the lack of space myself... at least you had a plank of something that wouldn't conduct electricity and made for some sort of flat surface.
Gotta say though, the end result is pretty cool and at least you assembled it yourself even if you got help doing it. I'm surprised it worked after being smacked by the phone, I was scared for both your motherboard and phone 0_0 I've never built a PC myself but I've got to just to even say I did it or at least tried, so this was inspirational in a way.
I was surprised it worked too after being smacked by my phone.. I was nervous for a minute LOL thank you so much for the kind words
Love your channel ❤
Keep it up
Aww thank you so much!
You did a amazing job building the gaming pc If I had to guess I would say you have at least 1 year experience in building gaming pc
Thanks for the pc building video.
Absolutely! :)
Aww... I always wish I could help when I see one of these videos.
Great first build
You know what I have seen alott of pc build video's but you was just so true by your heart. You didn't knew anything and was so true.
Haha thank you
@@erikaleilatv My Pleasure Hope I will also play games with you one day
@@1to1Million Absolutely!
"Friend Logan, I love you" 💀Rest in peace, brother.
I build my first pc yesterday day although I actually knew what I was doing but for someone like you who didn’t that was pretty impressive
Aww thanks so much!! Congrats on your new PC!! I'm sure it looks amazing!
Very goof for a beginner i will say if you ever build a pc again you should save from putting the cooler later as it can make it harder to install everything else and you also want to decide where the air flow is going.
and with amd you can put the cpu in two ways one by lining up the triangle or lining up the letters with cpu and the socket letters so where the stick rises up to thats one other way
You had me at Lian Li.
I LOVE THIS VIDEO UR UNDERATED ASF
You're so sweet thank you
