yoooo I built a PC? and maybeeeee I was facetiming chris the entire time I was doing it but bro I built a PC!!!!! I am beyond elated; I got to learn quite a bit during the process, and when I was initially doing research on how parts work, which ones to get, and how to assemble all of it, I found that there aren't a lot of youtube videos on PC building that a) have non-gaming centered purposes or b) done by women. so, as much as I am a noob, I wanted to make a video that is more geared towards people like me, especially as someone who had no prior experience to PC building and does photography/video for a living. if I can do it, y'all can too! hoped y'all enjoyed the process; my love for you guys is too much to compute. :,) have a lovely day!

just some notes after reading the comments!
1) I forgot to add the IO shield and stand-off screw for the SSD! my bad, first time
2) Graphic cards are really expensive and fluctuate in price like crazy ever since the pandemic, so all the 8GB GeForce RTX 2060/70 cards are actually over $1000 >_< the 1070 ti may have seemed like a ripoff, but it was the more inexpensive option until the 30 series restocks, but if you’re a PC build enthusiast you’d know that stuff has been picked up like crazy by scalpers :/ I only wanted to buy from official retailers, not off of eBay or a resale site
3) I lifted my PC off of the carpet a bit ago!
4) LMAO roast my keyboard bc I roasted my keyboard too, idk why Logitech sent me that one lol
5) I’m planning on adding additional fans in the future!
6) taking recs for games, I just started Alba and Persona 4 😌
I plan on building one when I fly back home I’m coming back after living in another country for a year lol
red dead redemption 2 is really good if you want something that'll push your pc to the limit! a little slow paced at times but incredibly immersive
genshin impact, linh.
@@KiyomatsuLifts chill there's already some pre-applied on the cpu cooler
you got completely scammed for the graphics card bro, its two gens old.... return it if you can and just wait for a 30 series card. ik you wanna buy off official retailers but it honestly doesnt matter when you buy an older gpu.

Okay but can we appreciate how her ex-boyfriend actually took time to help her build this. Its so sweet when the pc turned on and they both got excited!

So happy to finally watch a pc build without a hairy dude with edm background music doing it
Edit: ok everyone’s giving crap about me saying something sexist. Is what I said sexist? Yes. Am I going to apologize to men? No.
Edit: Alright guys it’s been like 7 months and I’ve done some thinking about what i said earlier and the way I said what I said. I’ve realized that although men are the predominant presence when it comes to videos in this category that’s no reason to tear them or anyone down. I’ve realized that I can be for inclusivity and diversity without tearing anyone down.
I did find it funny that other people disagreed with me saying what I said before yet came at me with even more negativity, let’s all check ourselves.
LMAO
KUDE
HAHAHAH
LMAO I’m still a noob, and ik there’s so many lovely ladies who know way more than me! I hope more gals share their PC builds here hehe

this was the most helpful beginner pc build video i’ve ever seen. thank you so much for labeling all the parts and WHAT THEY DO
Genuinely surprised how well she did as a first timer.
bro me too
I really love how transparent she is about how much everything costs, not only in this video but others as well. A lot content creators try to hide their expenses and deem having pricing in videos unnecessary
That is so true, when they don't say it I'm like "what are you hiding?'
Not to lie, I feel so happy to see a girl building a P.C. (I know there are tons of amazing girls building P.C., but I am happy to see it on TH-cam!) Some people will still think “girl building P.C.” is a weird thing, and I feel super relatable and glad to see I am not the only one interested!
And want to say Thank You btw!!
Thank you SO much for labeling what they do and the product!!! I’ve been interested in building my own PC for a while. :D
Linh's ability to complete practically anything she wants to independently is soooo inspiring, that's the level I aspire to be one day ;w;

yeah it really comes across like she can do anything 🤠

This has got to be one of my favorite build videos. I love the way you edited it and you have such a great aesthetic. Probably like the 5th time I've watched this video.
This is the most aesthetically pleasing Pc setup I have ever seen. Love to see new people getting into PC's.
imagine getting sponsored by LOGITECH omg linh really do be progressing in this world-
bro FOR REAL I WENT "😯🤩" CAUSE THAT'S SO AMAZING
this is the most excited i've ever been for a linh video. You did so well with your first PC!
Hi
I never seen anyone do this before.I found it good.
same.
thank you so much 😭
you two should colab
i really watched a whole vid of building a pc and i'm not complaining because it's simply aesthetic
Love your art style. It feels simple and detailed all at the same time. The color choices are always amazing and work so well together.
man, i don’t know how you managed to make a pc video have such a “cottagecore/granola” type atmosphere.... a very nice break from the constant “rainbow lights!!!! sleek black desk!!!! led lights!!!”
IKR
ahh ikr!
Linh: 🎶This Pc’s on fire 🔥🎶
Me: I don’t think that’s a good sign
😂😂😂
This is just so pleasing to watch, I love your life-style!
This is such a great video! Outside of building, the actual video editing, learning tips between each part of assembly is so helpful and I haven't seen it done often enough (I didn't do it either because I'm new to content creation and pc building). You've inspired me to do better when I record my boyfriend's pc build! Hope you're enjoying your pc!

SAME!! i always come back to it, it’s such a great video. i’ve always wanted to build a pc, and tonight i finally did ! came back to this video again :)
thank you!! I was looking through all these videos of people explaining their building of their pc and they talked like I knew what these parts were @.@ this is much more helpful!!
"brain of the pc but without knowledge"
can relate :')
*THE FANS ON THE RADIATOR ARE ON INTAKE !!!*

well i mean were not wrong it is called rgb for a reason
Rgb is the colour that makes rainbow colours
rainbow colors are rgb

rgb means Red Green Blue
guess who’s gonna go buy and try to build their own PC now lmao

behind every aestethic room, there are hidden tangled cabels.
Beautifully said 😂
Correct!!!
There literally isn’t a better feeling than seeing the pc you built with all your hard earned cash boot up.
YES OMG ✋😩
@stoprollin ikr, have u found one yet?
There really is a better feeling...
This was the most easy to understand pc build I've ever seen, thank you!!

glad you are advocating for building your own pc because yes, hella customisable, rather than 90% of everyone ages 15-50 just falling into the Apple trap for the branding.
Oops, hahahhaa 😂
Hey but like also, it’s ok to pick Apple over building your own pc.
Honestly wish I had built my own pc rather than getting my overly expensive macbook that started running slow after a couple of days
honestly i wanna switch to pc but i unfortunately do not have enough space in my room and i need to be always on the go with my macbook :((
I really like the descriptions, and like how chill the video is. A very great place to be!
Soo cute and I love your aesthetic! I'm planning to build my first Pc and this was super helpful! Simple and straightforward! thank you so much!
As an absolute nerd and a dweeb who watches linus' overkill builds all the time i never knew i needed a chill aesthetic build this much. Thank you this has cured my acne.
Wyone, how are you a nerd for doing what you like doing
@@icybeamz8 I was joking I dont think im actually a nerd nor do i think it is a negative thing to be.

I m going through stress and anxiety for last few days I don't know how to come over this but when i see your aesthetic video i feel happy and the view of your apartment is so beautiful that make me happy sometimes..
I don't know if it's the colour grading but damn that room looks so good especially in the day. Nice colours all around. Ultimate lo-fi setup.
linh’s the only youtuber that can make me enjoy a whole video on building a pc 🥵🤩
you did INCREDIBLE AAAAA the most a e s t h e t i c pc build i think ive ever seen ~
also i hear u on the graphics card struggle, a 1070ti is a mighty fine card tho! i loved mine

i’m watching so many pc build and setup videos rn because i’m planning my build and i’ve rewatched this video like 5 times
this video is what made me decide to build my PC and i've been so grateful ever since i made the decision to go from a macbook air to this thank you linh!
Okay but building up a pc by yourself definitely is something that affords a lOt of patience and she can be very proud that she made it cuz I couldn't
as an electronical engineering major, this is oddly satisfying and terrifying at the same time :^)
hi! i’m thinking of switching my major to EE, how do u like it? and what are ur classes like rn ? i’m sooo indecisive but i think switching will be the right step for me 🥺
I enjoyed the process of the build, and the video was put together very well. Good job!

Your bedroom is the most aesthetically pleasing place that I have seen, literally taken out from an Ikea magazine. Pretty good job with your build, loved it!
as someone who's been building pc's since 2013, I find watching someone build for the first time quite enjoyable. when you upgrade to that 30 series gpu it'll be a beast of a rig! loving the desk set up all around
4:15 someone needs to talk about how she perfectly was on key and in sync with the music, when she sang the pc is on fyreeee
I'm legitimately gonna cry. Your room is absolute goals and I'm broke af. Wow
