I actually like how this build is not timelapsed.
***** exactly
Nano the communist fish nah man, I love Ed.
For me, watching a PC being built is like watching a baby being born.
I was thinking that XD
Right :)
When it boots for the first time :O
yeah very similar
Wingman1977 does anyone have a uk link?
Wow, it's the first time I see graphics card installed like that
Me too
Pierre Visconti is it bad?
Pierre Visconti oh, thanks for the information.
Onixstar00 Gaming does this motherboard have built in wifi?
Jeff Coc I have it, yes it does.
This is perfect I was going to build something almost identical but with a i7 CPU thanks for me giving me an idea of how to connect all the parts together in a first time builder
when he installs the stuff it's sounds like asmr
About to build this for my first build
Don't use the riser cable, they don't work. Seriously, read the reviews anywhere.
riser cable? was wondering what was the reasoning for using it?
Can you link me a gpu riser (ON AMAZON) that is better made? I want to show off the graphics card, but the cable they used is terrible.
I run a 1080 off a i5 6600k and it never bottlenecks its a great cpu
this dude is a boss at making pcs.
What an interesting way you guys like to install memory, and gpu, and the fact that you choses a motherboard w/o pre-installed wifi receivers.
I'm spending $2.3k on a build with a 7600k and GTX 1070, my country totally rips me off.
Nano the communist fish India, the cheap stuff is cheaper but the expensive stuff tears your wallet.
I'm from brazil man,your hardware price here looks like free,here all the pc parts are extremally expensive
Eternal Mado you can order from amazon like me
come to brazil, mine costs 2000 with 1060 and ryzen 7
In Denmark (or should i say scandinavia) it is the same story... stupid taxes
How nice is to see a graphic card in this position
"And that's the screen we're looking for."
Ryan, you complete me.
Every time I see a CPU liquid cooler, it gives me nightmares of the end of 2015 when I did my build (which turned into a total quagmire) which I included a liquid cooler.
Wingman1977 What happened?
Most AiO`s have warranty if some liquid comes out, but custom made liquid cooling can be dangerous i think
It just was a nightmare connecting it to the case. Not to mention the build would power on for a bout 15 sec then power off. Turn on for 15 seconds, then power off. It got to the point that I just gave up and returned everything. I took a $426 hit since the CPU and GPU weren't refundable (bought them @ newegg I got a gift card for $926 and sold it to my friend for $500). That's one of the reasons I bought a pre-build rig this time around (PowerSpec G313 from microcenter) www.powerspec.com/systems/system_specs.phtml?selection=G313
Evening Rain That's a nice pre-built. Did it only come with one SSD, no HDD?
The g313, yes. With a 480 GB ssd if I read it right ^^
This guy builds like 30 PCs a month, give my man a break bro
I've never seen a PCI-E riser before and when he installed the gpu in the riser it blew my mind XD
Damn, that PC looks amazing! Great video, guys
I like this channel a lot! Keep up the hard work man!
watching this being built is like watching an artist make a masterpiece.
love that case. wish it had of been released 4 months ago when i put together my build :(
Beautiful build !
I can respect the i5 6600K I really can but at $1500 it almost seams like it makes sense to get a 6700K, 7700 or 7700K i7 for the hyperthreading. Maybe it is because I am not just a gamer but hyperthreading helps SOOO much outside of gaming, and if you ever want to dive into video editing or even just dip your toe in, that hyperthreading is worth it. Of course you can always buy a new CPU later but for me the "I can buy a new CPU later" thought comes in on a build under $1K
wow ....this build was awesome
Nice man, you got a new subscriber :D
ohohoho this is so cool
black n red
wew
really clean video ! :)
wow perfect, neat, nice, compliments 👍😊
Your build videos are like crack. I cannot stop watching them.
im going to be building a similar pc except im going to be using the z270 version and 7600k
Please tell me this guy has a youtube channel, he seems so nice
Make a pc with i5-6500 and all those parts that works correctly.
Its beautiful... im glad to see some other aftermarket gpu that is not Asus, gigabyte or msi.
Pierre Visconti Best ones? No brand is flawless... The best brand is the one that offers best customer support and in my country those "top 3" are the worst in customer support.
Thats why i like Zotac, Evga and Palit... they make sure that customer support and service are same for every country.
1080 with 6600k havent seen that before 0_o
Nice, Thank you!
wow , nice build, it would.run almost all games & high end software's too, isn't it
maybe a build with added peripherals for this price point of lower
I keep trying to be the first one to like and comment, but this one player keeps kicking my ass.
very nice budget build😁
Can I use a 600w power supply?
I've prepared almost the same build but this Captain didn't fit in my corsair spec03( so I switched it to Zalaman performa
never seen or even heard of a riser.
I understand the purpose of the riser but what practicable use does it serve besides displaying the GPU.
Deadlylyon15 That's it. It moves the GPU away from the motherboard. Usually used for display purposes or for hardware restrictions.
Deadlylyon15 gaming tip: it does cost some frames if you use a riser, you can youtube this for some specs. keep in mind it is very very minimal but i thought worth noting
Just a few Q's before I buy the parts
Does the motherboard come with the Wifi Antennas and Chip?
Also why is the Power supply different from the build guide?
what happens if I was rough my the inserting of the CPU, rough with my motherboard and even got shocked by it, and was really rough with the RAM sticks as they wouldn't go in easily? Will my computer still turn on?
Why is their no bottle necking with 6600k and gtx 1080? I new and want to build, I want to save with the i5 over the i7 but I've seen that it cause a performance issue. Please help.
should have used the deepcool captain 360/ex. more power.
Just a quick question. Why do motherboards have ways in which you install RAM like 2&4 first etc?
can you do a 900 dollar pc next?
Aaaah.Those mounting bracket screws sound so good. 😂😆😍👌💜🙌
And please do a 600$ bang for the buck PC with RX 480 and intel CPU.
You mean an expensive toaster oven,don't ya ?
I have a question on the placement of the pump/cold plate. I have the same unit (the white version) and I am actually planning another build with this one actually with the same motherboard too, weird. When I installed mine I followed the videos on deepcool website and mounted the pump at a 90 degree angle from the way you did in this build. Are both positions "correct", or is one preferable to the other?
Is it just me or is the PC part picker list different than what this guy is building?
does that power supply support the 1080? I have cx650 plus br, but Im a little afraid about buying a 1080 video card
could I install the graphics card the regular way without affecting the other components
worth buying for any new user.. newegg combo offers 60$ discount + 80$ mail in rebate. US people ENJOY!!
What is rebate??
it's beautiful
stupid question, what kind of video connection does this have? can i connect it to any monitor with HDMI?
Can I use a different case for this? If so can I use the Corsair Spec-Alpha ATX Mid Tower Case?
I've seen a lot of bad reviews on the x16 riser. Has it been working for you well or not?
Or should I just mount it regularly?
Speedee Games Doesnt make a huge difference but you are gonna have to sacrifice some frames
What kind of tools/screwdrivers will I need to do this setup?
Which angle of PCIE cable is in this video? Straight or right hand?
this way of placing gpu is possible with this case only or is possible with many cases ?
Aksshay Sharma Most cases only support horizontal gpu placement, but some do support vertical placement.
Pierre Visconti but i think there is no way to close the case and also there are no fan holes or for radiator
Lelouch Yagami He's talking about the Core P5 and P3
Awesome PC
how did u plug in the radiator fans sorry I'm a pc building noob
I need help (this is my first pc build). I think I've put all the cables in correctly and the desktop lights up and stuff but when I hook the hdmi cable from my monitor to my desktop, my monitor says "HDMI No signal" is there something wrong? Please help.
Honeyocto do you have a graphics card? where did u hook the HDMI cable to? what is ur build specifications?
Guys help me out here, I wanna build this for my first pc, could I get a be quiet! Air cooler fan thingy instead of a liquid cooler? If so let me know what I should get in terms of air coolers
Bryan Carvo yes the liquid cooler in this is not needed really just makes it colder how ever the cooler master hyper 212 evonis way better though the silent one is whiter it lacks in performance but either way they should do the job
So does that riser cable come with the case I'm looking to pick this case up
Is it possible to run the HTC Vive on this computer?
Luca The Boss you can run csgo
Luca The Boss yes this can do Virtual Reality great
do you get that thing to connect the graphics card to the slots eith the case?
Hello. Im thinking about doing something very similar to this build, but with GTX 1070, air cooler and a diferente case of my taste.
Priviously, i was getting the Mobo Z170A, but since i saw the Tomahawk with wireless conection for 5 dolars more, i'm thinking of changing for it. Is it of the same quality?
Another thing: air cooler is ok on this build right?
Are the cables on the PSU already Sleeved when you buy it ?
nice work
im still a bit unsure,im planning to get an aio in future but when i research bout this deepcool captain ex lots of peeps complain about it theirs leaking,its cheaper than corsair h100i but im still not sure,its looks cool thou
so i'm trying to build my very first pc (still saving up for it atm,). i just want a pc that will allow me to game and also do other stuff such as school work. with that said, should i go for this build?? should i change anything on it?? should i go for a different build?? if so any suggestions on what build should i do?? Pls reply and thank you for reading!
if the cpu and gpu are overclocked, is 550 watt psu enough for it?
What is the name\brand of that fancy screwdriver and where can I buy it online?
Did he incorrectly plug in the water pump to the CPU header or was that just me?
cpu fan for fan or cpu water block pump ? TIA
after seeing PNY-item. any suggestion getting PNY-parts? seen good and bad reviews and am lil scared now...
would the 6600k bottleneck a 1080?
i still cannot chose best mother board for me. entry level gaming rig. can someone suggest for me. tq for ur time helping me
Hello i have a question... A Xfx 600w 80 plus Bronze it's good for a 7700k, 16gb, Gtx 1070. ? I appreciate the answer.
Thom it should be fine but a 650w is more relevant and more common
Will this build work good for editing short videos to upload to TH-cam also?
I m very wondering, for what is that blue bracelet from your right hand???
it's an anti-static bracelet. It makes sure you don't accidentally shock a component with static electricity.
How many fan headers are on this board
3:50 Cross tightening pattern for no reason at all.
lol :D but good habit though... but LOL :)
Haha yeah. It probably became routine after so many builds.
omg who gives a flying fuck except you?
My apologies, your Majesty. It was not my intention to upset anybody.
IMB2U probably habit if you change tires on a vehicle
Is the water cooler setup in push or pull config?
what's the name of that thing in your wrist? i really need it but idk how to name it
does the $1500 includes the motherboard that was provided by msi?
What is about Hitachi hdd Is it good or worth it?
how reliable is that motherboard? i havent seen too many people use it in their builds.
can I use a noctua Nh-d15s instead ?
If I buy this, how long will it last me before I stoop to Intel Hd Graphics Levels with cpu powers of like... a dual core (4 thread) i7? Because this is really temping, but I don't know if I should get it. But it will last me a while. But I don't know if I should get it...
Pcpartpicker says this The motherboard M.2 slot #1 shares bandwidth with SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports. When the M.2 slot is populated, two SATA 6Gb/s ports are disabled.
is that true?? and if so what other motherboard is similar to this keep in mind its my first build ever.
Does the riser come with the case?
Fun build. Are there significant advantages with using an M2 vs SSD?
I think they are supposedly extremely fast.
Fluffyguy958 Only NVMe ones. They have M.2 SSDs with same speeds as SATA 3 SSDs which is the one he used in the video. Not worth using your M.2 slot if you use the slower one tbh, unless you really care about cable managment.
First time builder do I need a wireless adapter as I don't have a Ethernet cable? Also is their a way to get Windows operating system for free to low price? This is a budget build so I don't really have much money to be spending on extras.
Officer Barbrady
For wifi you have three options
1) wireless adapter( convenient)
2)wifi pcie card( best connectivity)
3) get a motherboard with built in wifi
does having a PCIe riser effect the card performance in anyway?
Shoaib Uddin it's not noticeable many tests show this
was the gpu put like that because it didnt fit onto the mobo or was it effects?
Jagmin Tiwana just to look cooler
Does someone knows if the fan on the rear of the case (the one with red corner) is already given by the case or he add it? 'Cause I'm gonna buy a very similar pc build and i just wanna know if the rear fan is exactly that. Then i would like also ask you is i should buy other fan like 2 pack of corsair as120mm (2 in a pack) to replace the fan rear and to put other 3 fan on the front side? if yes, would you suggest me which color should i get? should i picj the red led, to make everything glow red, or i should get the white led to make everything shine in a good white light? thanks
the rear fan comes with the case
Why hard working people get 30K views..
talxaN Because most people like Shit clickbait content more than quality content
sad
talxaN It truly is my friend
In Europe getting the same build is like 300 dollars more minimum
what is that on youre right hand,,is that imported when build gaming pc?
it makes it so he doesnt get any static shocks, one static shock could ruin an entire computer
