Some of it... when it comes to actual product reviews by certain editors with their actual field of work... it can be pretty reliable for a general guideline to some products. I don't know what happened to this PC thing but it was definitely not the norm for something the Verge is capable of when most of the articles I've read from them are pretty well thought out and knowledgeable. Threw me off completely when this came out though for sure. I say this as someone that has actually taken the time and effort to have already been on their site and read beyond a headline or a couple of videos. They generally aren't all bad with the exception of a couple of editors on there that no one can stand and some rogue ones that come and go and are never seen again. Like ANY media outlet. Not to defense of the Verge, but more or less just spending a minute correcting a wild comment that gets easily just thrown out every second about everything without much knowledge or experience in looking into whatever they're generally shitting on. lol
@@pushpopLoC909 "They generally aren't all bad with the exception of a couple of editors on there that no one can stand" how in the world did you discern the inner workings of verge from just reading some articles?
@@ww-pw6di I clearly stated I've been a long time reader/watcher of their videos and articles on their site and on youtube outside the brand new crowd that just heard about them through this infamous video of theirs. I've read more than "some". I've stated SOME of the articles (don't know how that implies I've only watched or read some of their work) were clearly filled with a lot of redundant words and terms to fill in that particular editor's pseudo-savvy article/review. Just like a lot of others are as well. Singling out The Verge as though it had more bad articles than any other (which is by far not true in that space) is an easy claim in the midst of a shitstorm that's already ready to shit on an entire company just because of one video from a company they just heard about today and claiming THEY know the inner workings of The Verge. The most I know is as much as any actual reader (which isn't most people in these comments to be fair) that reads beyond the headline and a couple of sentences (that's a stretch even lol). I mean, are you surprised rn that that's a thing in 2019 still? People just reading a headline and a comment here and there making the same assumption without any basis? The frontier justice of a small vocal minority making themselves feel good about calling out a singular wrong and making that their entire argument for how an ENTIRE company is a shithole for ONE opinion that isn't even within context? These are rhetorical mostly, but honestly I feel like you genuinely feel attacked if any of this bites even a little bit of a nerve. No one should be unless they're part of that group i'm calling out and it's kind of the majority 🤷🏻♂️ Again, not to the defense of The Verge. i'm talking in general here. Most of these companies aren't all one person with one opinion. This infamous video is a couple of editors and producers that were probably fired from the company or put in another place where they can actually specialize in and do a proper job in. If you put a neuroscience major in a room full of (any) engineers and asked that person to do some specialized math and diagramming, you're gonna be the first person to call them idiots for not knowing what they're talking about? I make my point here. The idiot isn't the neuroscience major... it's the idiot calling him an idiot that doesn't wanna understand or bother with context. Long story short.... don't be an idiot. 🤷🏻♂️

NO. It clearly says Swiss Army Knife that hopefully comes with Philips head, right along with a table, allen wrench, tweezers, and thermal paste applicator. Man, some people really need to learn to follow directions from authoritative sources
TBH, a Swiss Army Knife is basically all you need to build a PC, a pin for testing out the motherboard (pressing on the tiny power button on the motherboard for testing purposes, a knife for cutting tape for unboxing, screwdriver for motherboard installation and then scissors for cable management (unneeded zip ties or what not).

@@Ben_R4mZ its really not that hard, there is no reason to buy prebuild if you got two arms and can spare couple hours in to it, this guy just didnt do any research :D I was complete newb when i build my first comp around 2004 but even back than there was decent guides on the internet, with easy to follow instructions for the beginners to avoid these type of mistakes. The verge guys are complete idiots for releasing the video in the first place
@@Ben_R4mZ Dan Rudov Guys you only need to look at the first pages of the motherboard manual. You space them out not because of "space" but because the slots are paired, you put the rams in different "setups" depending on how many sticks you're installing (usually 2 or 4). Same goes for the PCI-E and it's nothing fancy: one has 16x written on it, the others don't. Honestly, the hardest part (or rather annoying) of building a PC is managing cables, go figure.
That's the worst and scariest part. The fact that you can't scroll down and double-check their work in the comments or like/dislike ratio You get no information beyond what they want you to see, which is a guy who looks and sounds pro to people who know nothing about this stuff. At least their wittle feelings have been spared though.
@@Proccito He was probably the only actual gamer in the office and they thought "all gamers know how to build PCs, right?" Lmao, The Verge, what a joke...

@@JMPERager Just talking to gamers thinking they know computers makes me cringe. Now I don't bash on people for not having the knowledge, but atleast admit it and not brag about your newest GPU which released last week, when I know the GPU which released last week was the Radeon RX560 (yes, that has happened)
@@Proccito I was originally one of those people but when i wanted to build my own PC i just did some research. It's really quite simple even if you just follow the manufacturers' instructions.
@Random Number There has been alot of TH-cam videos that have went and gone. Just like ancient man made structures and objects and mother natures creations.
I just built my own PC and I watched BitWits how to build and had my first PC done from scratch in 2½hrs. Now I got a sexy PC that works. Booting up was the hardest part I had lol
@@CMan-x7k that could get you a good system, just remember you have to keep peripherals [keyboard, mouse, monitor(s)] in mind, so since I’m not sure if you would include that in the budget, I would say not to look into spending the full $2000. edit: my reply is pretty long, I just realized. In my reply I explained why I picked the components in this list. As for specs, I would suggest these: CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 or i7 For editing, an 8 core processor should fit your needs well. Not sure if you plan on doing gaming since you didn’t mention it, but they can also handle gaming pretty well. Since there are only two brands to choose from, I would recommend the Ryzen 7 3700x or 3800x if you go AMD, and for Intel I would recommend the i7 10700. CPU Cooler: Since your PC may be using a bit more intensive programs, I would suggest an AIO (all in one) liquid cooler. I don’t know too much about them since I’m getting an air cooler for my PC, but I suggest you do research to find the right one. Some popular brands are NZXT, Corsair, Cooler Master, and Lian Li. GPU: Again, you didn’t specify if you wanted to do gaming. If you want/need a dedicated GPU, you can go for the GT 1030 since it is cheap and will suit your needs just fine. If you’re a casual gamer, you can go for something a bit higher end like a GTX 1660 Super. However, if you do NOT plan on doing any gaming and don’t need a dedicated GPU, I would suggest going Intel and using their integrated graphics. You can put the money that would have gone to a GPU to better peripherals, or to something else completely. Motherboard: If you are going AMD, a B550 or X570 motherboard should be good. For Intel, B560 or Z590. You do *not* need a motherboard with Wi-Fi. It’s much cheaper to buy a Wi-Fi card or use an Ethernet cable than look for a motherboard with integrated Wi-Fi. Just make sure your motherboard fits in your case, and that all your components are compatible with the motherboard. RAM: 32GB CL16 3200+ MHz 32GB is plenty for editing and other kinds of multitasking. CL16 is the latency of the ram, and the MHz is the speed of the RAM. You want a lower latency, and a higher speed. (Tip: when you are setting up your PC, make sure you enable XMP in the BIOS. this will give you the full speed of your RAM, because at default it runs at half the speed.) Some popular brands are G-Skill, Corsair, HyperX, and Crucial. Storage: you can decide how much storage you need, but I would go for a combination of SSD and HDD. Install your OS on the SSD as well as applications you use frequently, and the HDD is good for long-term storage or things you don’t use often. For the SSD you can buy a 250 or 500 GB M.2 drive (this is installed on your motherboard). As for hard drive, 1-2 TB could work. You use your PC differently from me, so take my suggestion on this with a grain of salt. PSU: 80+ Gold for energy efficiency, 650-750 watts should be plenty. If you plan on upgrading in the future, you may want to get a higher wattage power supply. PC Part Picker will estimate the wattage of your system, but you’ll want to get a couple hundred watts more just so you have that room. Some popular brands are EVGA, Corsair, Seasonic, and be quiet! Case: Depends on what you think looks nice, make sure to pick something up with good airflow, and that can fit all of your components. Some popular brands are Corsair, Cooler Master, be quiet!, and Lian Li. I suggest doing lots of research before you buy your components, so that everything is perfect for _you._ I’m open to critique from other commenters, who may have more experience in PC building than I. Read reviews and specs, and pcpartpicker.com is your best friend when picking components. If you‘d like advice on peripherals I can totally assist you, I’m just not sure about your setup theme or if you value function/value over aesthetics. I hope this helped!
@@Sunny-ht2pw Oh wow thank you. In response I was thinking of doing gaming, but I was more concerned about Video Production. As for the case I was thinking of getting a custom made PS2 computer case. Is there a way to run Apple on a custom PC?
Exactly what a credit company would like you to do. Think the video was made as intended, so you could add another expensive quick loan to your wast amount of poor decisions xD when this one blows up

I would've defended Verge dude by saying "it's probably his first PC build and the Verge unfairly picked him to host the video" or "he was given incorrect instructions", but then he later clarified that this was not his first PC build and that everything he did wrong was corrected after the fact (not on camera BTW) and it doesn't even matter if he did almost everything wrong because the computer worked anyway. He also called everyone here "angry nerds with inferior builds" so yeah, he deserves all the criticism he's getting.

well, there were fans on the radiator at the end of the video, so it should have lasted a bit. but probably still burned the pc with all those other mistakes
@@lanceryderwilson8618 Nah that actually comes with some thermal paste tubes. It's mostly for laptops, because it's harder to spread thermal paste right on them.
From the article that this video was originally meant to accompany: "Editor’s note: An earlier version of this article included a video guide detailing similar steps on how to build a PC. Unfortunately, that video included a number of errors in the build process, and as a result we have removed it from this article. We have also updated this article to improve the order of the steps in the process." Well at least they finally admitted it, 2 years later.
They admit it, I'll give them credit for that, but Stephan, should also admit it too (not that me or lot's if people care at this point) and Iirc by some sources he's supposedly already out from the verge by that point (dont quote me on that) Now the verge alone is doing a "good" job to reduce the chaotic mess they once create by an article they're wrong and deleting the original vid In all seriousness tho, if someone regularly watched verge does he actually ever show up before this video?
that's assuming the computer actually posted and they aren't just showing a pre-recorded video on screen. someone said his tapping doesnt even line up with what's happening in-game

Get a fucking precision screwdriver set with a bunch of bits. It seriously bugged me when I had to work in shops that didn't have one.
TBH, a Swiss Army Knife is basically all you need to build a PC, a pin for testing out the motherboard (pressing on the tiny power button on the motherboard for testing purposes, a knife for cutting tape for unboxing, screwdriver for motherboard installation and then scissors for cable management (unneeded zip ties or what not).

The verge guys are complete idiots for releasing the video in the first place
@@Ben_R4mZ Dan Rudov Guys you only need to look at the first pages of the motherboard manual.
You space them out not because of "space" but because the slots are paired, you put the rams in different "setups" depending on how many sticks you're installing (usually 2 or 4).
Same goes for the PCI-E and it's nothing fancy: one has 16x written on it, the others don't.
Honestly, the hardest part (or rather annoying) of building a PC is managing cables, go figure.
Every now and then TH-cam will recommend this to me and I’m obligated to give it a rewatch. Speaking of memory, I’m glad I haven’t erased this one.

"$2000 is a decent chunk of change for a gaming PC."
2019 was a different time.
TBH hat's still a chunk of change. Can't imagine many people have $2,000 to spend.
@@CMan-x7k it’s definitely a chunk of change, it just buys you way less PC now than it did two years ago…
@@biggsly What would $1,000-$2,000 get me today? Been thinking of building a PC for editing/audio engineering.
@@CMan-x7k that could get you a good system, just remember you have to keep peripherals [keyboard, mouse, monitor(s)] in mind, so since I’m not sure if you would include that in the budget, I would say not to look into spending the full $2000.
edit: my reply is pretty long, I just realized. In my reply I explained why I picked the components in this list.
As for specs, I would suggest these:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 or i7
For editing, an 8 core processor should fit your needs well. Not sure if you plan on doing gaming since you didn’t mention it, but they can also handle gaming pretty well. Since there are only two brands to choose from, I would recommend the Ryzen 7 3700x or 3800x if you go AMD, and for Intel I would recommend the i7 10700.
CPU Cooler: Since your PC may be using a bit more intensive programs, I would suggest an AIO (all in one) liquid cooler. I don’t know too much about them since I’m getting an air cooler for my PC, but I suggest you do research to find the right one. Some popular brands are NZXT, Corsair, Cooler Master, and Lian Li.
GPU: Again, you didn’t specify if you wanted to do gaming. If you want/need a dedicated GPU, you can go for the GT 1030 since it is cheap and will suit your needs just fine. If you’re a casual gamer, you can go for something a bit higher end like a GTX 1660 Super.
However, if you do NOT plan on doing any gaming and don’t need a dedicated GPU, I would suggest going Intel and using their integrated graphics. You can put the money that would have gone to a GPU to better peripherals, or to something else completely.
Motherboard: If you are going AMD, a B550 or X570 motherboard should be good. For Intel, B560 or Z590.
You do *not* need a motherboard with Wi-Fi. It’s much cheaper to buy a Wi-Fi card or use an Ethernet cable than look for a motherboard with integrated Wi-Fi. Just make sure your motherboard fits in your case, and that all your components are compatible with the motherboard.
RAM: 32GB CL16 3200+ MHz
32GB is plenty for editing and other kinds of multitasking. CL16 is the latency of the ram, and the MHz is the speed of the RAM. You want a lower latency, and a higher speed. (Tip: when you are setting up your PC, make sure you enable XMP in the BIOS. this will give you the full speed of your RAM, because at default it runs at half the speed.) Some popular brands are G-Skill, Corsair, HyperX, and Crucial.
Storage: you can decide how much storage you need, but I would go for a combination of SSD and HDD.
Install your OS on the SSD as well as applications you use frequently, and the HDD is good for long-term storage or things you don’t use often. For the SSD you can buy a 250 or 500 GB M.2 drive (this is installed on your motherboard). As for hard drive, 1-2 TB could work. You use your PC differently from me, so take my suggestion on this with a grain of salt.
PSU: 80+ Gold for energy efficiency, 650-750 watts should be plenty. If you plan on upgrading in the future, you may want to get a higher wattage power supply. PC Part Picker will estimate the wattage of your system, but you’ll want to get a couple hundred watts more just so you have that room.
Some popular brands are EVGA, Corsair, Seasonic, and be quiet!
Case: Depends on what you think looks nice, make sure to pick something up with good airflow, and that can fit all of your components. Some popular brands are Corsair, Cooler Master, be quiet!, and Lian Li.
I suggest doing lots of research before you buy your components, so that everything is perfect for _you._ I’m open to critique from other commenters, who may have more experience in PC building than I. Read reviews and specs, and pcpartpicker.com is your best friend when picking components. If you‘d like advice on peripherals I can totally assist you, I’m just not sure about your setup theme or if you value function/value over aesthetics. I hope this helped!
@@Sunny-ht2pw Oh wow thank you. In response I was thinking of doing gaming, but I was more concerned about Video Production. As for the case I was thinking of getting a custom made PS2 computer case. Is there a way to run Apple on a custom PC?
The reason it cost $2,000 is because it actually cost $500 but they had to scrap the first one and start over from scratch three times.

@@hirakaiko5570 Link? I’m very curious to see what it’s all about
Would like but 555
The original video is just a demonstration of how idiot-proof computer components have become.
It may be idiot proof, but it is still not insulation proof.
Mind = blown... holy shit.. the ram... my god.. that poor CPU... I was surprised he got it in at all!
I was thinking the exact same thing. Back in 2004 this dude would not have ever been able to get a computer to post. 100% guaranteed.
@@tymtrppr3 Try the IRQ days. 2004 is too similar to today
that's assuming the computer actually posted and they aren't just showing a pre-recorded video on screen. someone said his tapping doesnt even line up with what's happening in-game
4 years later its still hilarious
"He not fighting static."
"HE fighting cancer."

"Rivestrong braceret" HAHAHAHA.
Yeah, that guy had the best responses 😂
“First of all you need a table” me-sweats vigorously having built my pc on my wood floor
I built mine on some cardboard from the shipping box to avoid contact with my carpet, I'm a rebel like that.
@@TH-camTookMyNickname.WhyNot Are you me?
All of you noobs building your computers on a surface, meanwhile pros like me build PC's while levitating
i also built mine on a floor as well.. and it's concrete.. good thing I've watched these how to build PCs, and taught me to put the mobo on top of the box, otherwise I would have put all the components on the floor.. lol
i built mine on a marble floor lol
Jesus, that kid isnt ever gonna be the same, he presented the whole PC build with so much confidence which makes it so much more cringe
He even doubled down and called everyone who criticized him "nerds" who can't even afford a $2000 pc.
GoodMomo His ego prevents him from being admitted he screwed up. Poor guy.
Screw on with confidence!
@@GoodMomo racists too lol
Demo yea like wtf
Dude really put on his wrist a rubber bracelet and called it "anti-static" 💀💀💀
