I work as a technician for a computer store in Canada and this is very well explained and put together breakdown, picked up a few things I didn't know either, Thanks!
Took me two months of non stop relearning what fits in what socket, etc. I went so far in learning the anatomy of a GPU, how RAM works, everything about monitors (cause somehow i find monitors interesting), I am loving tech as I did in my 20s, if not more. Thank you for what you do and your enthusiasm!!
I love how you cover everything a newcomer would need to know in one video including naming conventions shown visually. Well done and will bookmark this for future.
Thank you so much for this explanation I'm new to PC building and PC gaming at all. With limited access to experts this video has really helped me to build my PC in a safe and effective way. Thank you look forward to seeing more of your content
Anyway this is my PC build thanks to your video (Intel Core i7-13700K, The Gigabyte Z790 Gaming X AX is a motherboard, Corsair Vengeance 32GB DDR5 5200MHz C40 Desktop RAM Memory Kit - Black, air cooling, Western Digital 2TB WD Green SN350 NVMe Internal SSD Solid State Drive, RTX 3080, Msi MPG 750 Watt Power Supply Fully Modular Gold, NZXT H510)
In amazon they normally make it 100-300$ more expensive but in places like Jawa it’s normally 50-100$ more expensive since they are individual sellers instead of big companies
It's very important to know how to build a pc especially when you're buying expensive parts. Before I didn't know what integrated graphics are and thought all CPUs could run by itself. So I bought a CPU without integated graphics and didn't show any display lol. Ended up buying a gpu in the end even if I didn't plan to.
Great video, as always but wish you would have given a couple of supporting points as to why the 4070 ti is a hard no for you. That’s the one I’m considering getting because I like the higher performance compared to the 4070 and the sub $1000 price point. 4080 is above $1000. What are some negatives about the card that make you rule it out as a decent option?
If you HAVE TO fulfill your ray tracing urges and dlss 3 and maybe even use frame gen for a few titles then ok. But that doesn’t change the fact the 7900xt is cheaper, performs better in straight rasterisation, and has 8GB more vram which is crazy to think about considering it costs less than the 4070ti, not to mention its not even a efficient card like the none ti 4070. Thats why he considers it a hard PASS unless you plan to use ray tracing EVERY single day
Not worth it when it comes to price versus performance. You're paying $800 for meh 4K performance with decent legs in Ray-Tracing. 7900XT is a far superior option if you're looking at framerates and pricing. NVIDIA have fumbled the bag a fair bit this generation.
Hey geekawhat I have a question about my gaming performance, I see people use the same parts I use but I get way less fps then them, I have a 12100f and a rx6700 non xt it only has a 2% bottleneck but I get about 90 fps less than what they get in warzone 2 (on the lowest settings) i want to know if it’s anything like overclocking or did I not do something right
im to dum to understand but im tryin my hardest kuz iont want to get good parts and have things thats not compatible with it.. like i barely understand CPU’s and the PSU im trying to get something that goes right with a 4070, if anyone knows help a brotha out
@@user-up1sb9iu2sno no it is not the i7 13th gen and the i9 12th gen has the same amount of cores and threads but the i7 13th gen has a higher GHz so it is better
Great video as always. Love the informative content you produce. I do have a question though. Will a i5 13400f be sufficient to pair with a 4070 for 1440p 165hz gaming? How bad will it bottleneck if ant at all? Thanks in advance and keep up the great content! Always look forward to watching your videos!
I would recommend at least a Ryzen 5 7600x at least, idk if you need a better CPU since I am also a bit new, but considering the Ryzen 5 7600x is good paired with the Rx 6700xt ( a slightly worse GPU), it should be good enough or bottleneck by very little
Not if your playing gpu intensive games but if your going to play more of a balance of esports, and fps games along side those AAA titles than i would say get a r5 7600x or non x either is fine
@@LackOfBrain 13400F may struggle a bit at certain resolutions and settings. 7600X has the benefit of a 5GHz+ clock speed, so when you're pushing it with 4K or Ray-Tracing the CPU should be able to handle it. I imagine the 13400F may struggle to a degree. Mind you though I know people that have been running the 5600X with a 4070 at 4K and its fine, so it really depends.
Also, if this is your first build-- make sure to check what RAM you are getting, as different RAM can be 'geared' towards different CPU's Basically: XMP kits are made more efficiently for INTEL EXPO kits are made more efficiently for AMD AMD can use both but apparently Intel is less stable when used with EXPO kits This is only if you enable those modes in the bios to achieve the advertised speeds. ALSO this next point is very important: Check your components against the compatibility lists of your chosen motherboard etc-- the easiest way to do this is via PC Part Picker and just 'build your pc there' it will mention price and any potential issues, the other way is if you know your Motherboard then check the QVL list and what it's compatible with. Anyway although it may seem daunting, as long as you follow instructions, slow down, and use your common sense building a pc can be/is an amazing experience and I hop you enjoy it. Pro tip, if you get tired/frustrated take a break/start up again the next day, also use your motherboard box to put your components together, and keep your phone at a distance but close enough to quickly watch a video/Google anything you're not sure about 🤙🏽
I'm trying to make my first gaming pc build, and watching your videos is really helping me pick the right things I want to choose. I've finalized everything except the CPU. My two options are Ryzen 5 5600x or i5 13400f. I'm going for an only gaming pc at 1080p to 1440p for GOW, some fps shooters and F1. I am sticking with a 6700xt. Can you help me choose which cpu could be better
@@bhavaniprasad7084 The Ryzen 5 5600 non-X version would be the absolute best value as it's only 1-3% slower than the 5600X and usually costs about 10% less. That paired with fast RAM will come very close to the performance of the 13400F. Only go for the 13400F if you really need its performance cores for core count benefiting workloads, or somewhy really need the extra 10% of gaming performance. The 5600 will still provide over 360fps in fps shooters like CS:GO, Valorant, and Overwatch. And in most other games, you will be GPU bottlenecked anyway with an RX 6700 XT. Hope this helps
@@atirta777 ok thanks for the help, but isn't the 6700xt better suited for 1440p with 12Gb vram. I was hoping the cpu will be bottlenecking and I wanted to choose one that can run efficiently with it
@@bhavaniprasad7084 The 6700 XT is the best choice at that price for anything tbh, but a GPU bottleneck is always better than a CPU bottleneck because less stuttering and smoother frametimes. Most fps shooters will still be CPU bottlenecked as they are designed like that.
Quick question. On my motherboard I have gen 3 and gen 4. How ever the gen 3 has the motherboard heat sink and not the gen 4. So I’m guessing I need a gen 4 ssd with a heat sink? OS is on gen 3 looking to get gen 4, soon. Should I move OS over to gen 4? Not to mention the size. Any recommendations please.
how do you tell what speed of M.2 your MB has? I see the speeds of the drives themselves but haven't seen what the actual board can take. I have purchased a Z690 AORUS ELITE AX
Hey I am building my first computer and so excited! Do I need to buy Windows OS and Sound Cards and Network Adapters or do they come with the parts that I buy? Thank you!
If you're doing things by the book, yes you're supposed to pay for Windows. Unofficially, Microsoft lets you run Windows 10/11 indefinitely w/o paying for it. You won't be able to personalize your PC and a watermark appears. Other than that everything works the same as if you paid for it. No need to buy network or sound cards. Computers have had those built-into the motherboard for at least 20 years. You can still buy separate cards if you want, but they're not necessary for most use cases.
Either one works fine. In reality, most PC gamers don't need a liquid cooler unless you plan on running very high-end and high heat producing components OR if you need the quietness of a liquid cooler. You also have to factor in the potential of leakage which can damage your components. It doesn't mean it will happen, but it is a real possibility.

Neither AMD nor Nvidia supply graphics cards to AIB manufacturers, they only supply GPUs and in the case of Nvidia, VRAM.
And A-ATX?
6700 XT is now mostly suitable for high fps 1080p or 60 fps 1440p. Likewise a 6800 XT is now deemed suitable for high fps 1440p or 60 fps 4K.
