- #howto #asuspcdiy #gamingpc - Building a Gaming PC is just the first step of the process. Powering up for the first time may seem like a daunting task, but following these few stages in order should get you on your way with ease.
Timecodes
(though I recommend not to skip for visual narrative reasons!)
00:00 - Intro - scene setting
01:26 - Installing Windows
04:28 - The Importance of Updates
05:27 - Graphics Software & Drivers
07:07 - Screen Refresh Rates
07:48 - RGB Control & Updates (Armoury Crate)
10:07 - The Dreaded Activation Thing
11:22 - A quick Summary
12:05 - PC Build Cinematic
13:33 - Coffee Thanks & Outtakes
When you build PC's every day, it's easy to take for granted how overwhelming it can be to set them up. In this video I take a moment to explain the process I use every time to ensure Windows, drivers and surrounding software works symbiotically.
Of course, you may be using an MSI, or Aorus motherboard etc which will change the setup stages slightly, however the order should still be exactly the same:
Install windows
Windows Updates
Graphics (GeForce Experience or Adrenalin)
Check screen refresh rates
Branded software for RGB control and devices
Windows Activation
Install Games
Play Games
I didn't want to dig deep into bios, overclocking and XMP etc during this video. If this is your first Gaming PC build then it's important to focus on the details which will get you gaming rather than getting into the advanced territory.

How do we feel about these occasional videos with a voiceover? Its great to be able to share knowledge with you time to time 😊
Really helpful! Would love more
@@tclockie91thank you 😊 Of course the core foundations of my channel will remain non-commentary, that’s what I enjoy the most. But as above, from time to time it ‘feels’ good to drop in, talk, share some knowledge in the same laid-back fashion I guess 🫶
The occasional voice over, is like an old friend dropping by for a chat. It has that sort of vibe.
@@kofeyhwhat a great way of putting it. Right in the feels 🫶
That nice type of video, but where part of updating bios and choose xmp for ram and configurate proparly fan control? You have loop of water colling it`s need to configure to i gues?!
Nothing can stop your creativity Matt, every video is a new way of watching pc's building !
It’s genuinely always exciting thinking up new ways to execute ideas. Sometimes I second guess myself and think people may not enjoy it, but… if I’m enjoying it, I like to think you are too 😁 thanks so much
This is such an easy-to-follow video. I’ve seen many videos, but most of them have a hyperactive tone. Unlike those, your videos consistently focus on the essentials without overwhelming the viewer. ❤
I had no reason to watch this tutorial since I do this 2-3 times a day but I still watched the video. It was really like therapy. And btw, I really support that you build then sell the PCs. I really wish that you start making at least small profit and turn this into a small business. Cheers from Bulgaria, mate! 🤟🏼
Good video bro. But first step is to check the BIOS and update it if needed. Then optimize the BIOS like setting the XMP and such. Then going into the windows install process. ❤
Love the video with the voice over. It brings a whole new vibe to the video. Great work as always brother👍
Thanks for the basic initial installation guide to have the PC configured
apparently you also have an insane microphone besides an insane camera, stellar job as always
Thanks so much. Sound design in my videos is super important as I’m sure you know, love to hear the mic feedback too! 😊
And a good voice too
As a PC builder myself. My first thing after windows updates is always mainboard drivers. Then again I think amoury crate did that for you, right?
Sick video. Love it. Keep it up. 🤩😍
Nice instruction video, but I feel updating and walking through the BIOS would have been a nice inclusion. Especially with XMP/EXPO RAM and several issues with older BIOS versions people might run into otherwise.
Your right I thought the same as you.🤔
What a great video. So many of these people build PCs and they don’t tell you what to do after they’re all put together. This is such a great video and this is my favorite build. You’ve done. This is a beautiful computer.
@Mr_Matt_Lee, an amazing video as always. I always wondered what your setup process was after a clean build. The software and RGB lighting setup are along with your hardware assembly are what make you builds very unique. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Great vid. I enjoy the silent PC build videos with the track overlayed over them, but really enjoy these voiced over videos as well. If selling machines is going to be a thing, I will definitely be keeping an eye on that.
Great video! Jayz 2 cents did one of these a few years back and it was really helpful when I was getting into PC gaming. I’m sure yours will help many while also looking amazing as usual.
I just completed my build. All of the videos I watched were from you and you really helped me. Thank you @Mr Matt Lee
This is my favorite PC chassis, I will get one like it soon, hi from Medellin Colombia, good video
We need the first and most important part, which is how to setup and enable or disable things in BIOS, such as the XMP profile and Resize BAR, ram speed etc... thank you
Coming in a future video. This one is for the core basics ✌️
Your fractal terra build was so great that I used almost all the same parts and it came out looking amazing! Thanks for your help
Thanks for tutorial that's easy to understand for first time builder like me... I wanna upgrade my pc next month so this video will be saved in my playlist
I agree 👍 the administration said is just as important as the builds. I love learning and in ways, we're all TH-cam-certified.
Nailed it again Matt, good job.👍👍👍
Awesome. Nexto one...Jonsbo TK-2 build
is it just me or seeing Matt working on the pc then goes back to his coffee after is a delightful sight ☕
Its cool! but why didn't use the rear chamber for radiator? It's more effective, but little bit noiser.
Thank you! Nobody does this. They build a pc and then show you stats. But there is so many in between.
I’m definitely bookmark this video. 🫡
Great video master lee 😄
Just built my RTX 4090 build and 14th Gen i9 last week all white, nothing more satisfying clicking that on button and watching it light up and when you install windows and can finally use the pc install drivers etc that's the best feeling in the world.
Just got here, instant sub. Dude you need at least 1mm subs, look at this production and content!!!!!
Dude... your opening lines! NAILED ME!
Great vid as always Matt! A couple things to add if you do a refresh of this video again:
- Making sure the PSU power switch is on. Nothing worse troubleshooting why a PC doesnt turn on and its because of a simple PSU power switch lol
- Overclock RAM in BIOS by enabling an XMP or DOCP profile
- Mention the "Windows Media Kit" so people can google this to create the USB for Windows install
can you expand on the last one?
For the XMP part, do we need to do the same but with AMD Expo if we have an AMD CPU ?
@@adamsterdam9049 You want to put Windows 10 or Windows 11 on a USB Flash drive, google "Windows Installation media" and it should give you a Microsoft link to Create a Windows 10 or 11 Installation Media. It'll download the media kit, run that and it'll search for the USB drive to install on to make it a bootable USB device that will install Windows on the PC you plug it into afterwards. Pretty easy, I've done a video or 2 on it in the past
@@GW3N_yt Yup! If you see EXPO, enable that
Uploaded 39 seconds ago, *click*, mint as always
Appreciate you my dude 😁✌️
Even as someone who's built and configured hundreds of PC's and could probably build in my sleep, this video was enjoyable even for me. Your videos are always on point with no excess, but still very enjoyable to watch. Keep up the good work good sir.
Watching this 22:00 and u talk about a good ☕️ 😭. I’ll sleep fast and drink one in the morning 👌🏼
Choice! PC build Matt :-). If I was in the UK, I would buy that Rig quicker than you could sip your coffee! Great Video as always, muchly enjoying the voice overs too. Cheers - Jass and Jacqui E.
You deserve more subscribers outstanding bro 👊🏾💕🤯
Yooooo, you can talk??? Or wait, do we even know that this is narrated by Mr. Matt Lee? So mysterious...love it.
Thank you for the turorial!!!
Great timing with this my parts just came in the mail!
Good job Matt, Thanks for your creativity, good luck and success to you
Great video Matt. I wish there was an Amoury Crate alternative for desktop, the software itself is full of useless bloatware.
Your storytelling is superb! Keep going, mate!
I LOVE THE MUSIC YOU CHOOSE!!!
Every video is a work of art sometimes it fits and that is you choice so, do as youj feel. I mean, we went a while before hearing your voice and when you did, it fit.
your vids are amazing, even my kids love them. This is a good vid I can send to my friends who are new to the custom pc world
I really enjoy the voice over in this!
Hello from Phoenix Arizona, Arizona that is one of the nicest computers I think I’ve ever seen. I’ve been looking at these custom gaming PCs for a while now I’m a Mac person and I don’t even game. The last video games I played were in the arcades are either Atari or Kaliko vision at home, that being said, I would love to play Microsoft flight Sim because I’m pilot and I’d like to get some of the real Sim hardware in my house and build a little cockpit. Anyway I hope you listed the PC case and components. I’m actually trying copy that build. Thank you.
Nice video, great idea. Moreover you keep it simple on the tips so this is very good ! Thanks Matt for all the content you're proposing on this channel !
Hey Mr. Matt Lee Sir, greetings from the USA :) Loving the video and voice over and the Music, as always is ZEN. Have to TRY and keep it down for my neighbors, the music is hmmmmm ZEN love it. Nice job and great feedback / instructions. Man I am out of creamer and now I want some Coffee too lol. 😇🤛
The voice over videos are better because you are sharing helpful ideas. I like these better.
Back with Panic Attack.. love that. Wonderful video, superb build and as I’m hoping to build my first gaming PC in the new year super helpful, and something I was going. to ask about. What would also be a great suggestion for these alternative style videos could be a more in-depth look at all the various cable connections, bios configuration and maybe some information on how you select the varying components to compliment each other.
Oh and this was worth the wait. Thanks.
Hands down the best "what to do after build" video. So simple and beautifully explained. When I finally build my 1st ever PC I will coming back to this video. 😂
It’s good but first step is update BIOS and optimize it then go into the windows install process.
The most satisfactory Windows installation video tutorial on the internet 😅❤
everything in this channel is just so chill
We all need an escape from the chaos of life 😮💨
Going to build the first pc of my life soon.
Saving this video for thet...
Thank you for the information
00:26 man after my own heart. All good things, start with a coffee. ☕️
This and only this ☕️
That TUF box configuration sure is popular on this channel. I can see why, it looks great.
An informative video today👍definitely saving down in playlist for future reference🥸
Love to hear that 😁✌️
Hi Matt i am new on this channel. I just wanted to say that i love your conntent and what you create.
Thanks so much for being here 😁 It’s always a pleasure to see new subs. Grab yourself a coffee and let’s hang out for the long haul ☕️
uno de los mejores vid que e visto,exelente trabajo gracias por tu tiempo!!!
I love the look of the ASUS GT502 case.
You forgot the EXPO/XMP to get the advertised RAM speed and the Bios update that could be needed in some cases. But appart from that it was really nice, really soothing.
Awesome and Motivated + CLASSY! 👌🏻💪🏻☕️👌🏻🔝
Let’s go 😁☕️☕️
Thank you so much.
You’re most welcome 😊🙏
Nice video. Thanks for this well done video.
yes! coffee gang
I always like windows installing and driver installing. always !! for u r works. i loved them
Amazing content !!! Thank you 🙏🏼
We got this 🫶
Nice video as always. I use the expensive retail windows key. And thats because i make lots of changes to my pc often.
I dont want to have to buy a new cheap key over and over again. But if you build a new rig every few years then thats the perfect option. 🙂
Спасибо за обзор 🤗
Coffee is definitely therapy.
Awesome video matt very well put together
Thank you ✌️ I guess there’s a lot to be said for taking a laid back approach and just sharing the process with me as it happens. Hopefully you can take away some useful knowledge from it 🦾
@@Mr_Matt_Lee im sure it will help lots of ppl
Alles ist schön und richtig. Mir gefällt es immer sehr gut.
The following is some of the questions I have:
1. What is the difference in between buying the product key off the shelf and buying it online the way it's explained in the video? Are those downloadable keys legit?
2. Does the motherboard and graphics card have to be Asus products in order to use Armory Crate software?
3. I use Corsair AIO and therefore I use iCue software to set up fan speed. Is there a way to bypass this? How do you control the fan speed without iCue? In my case, I remember being scared of my fans spinning at its maximum capacity and I couldn't find a way to slow it down without using iCue.
4. Similar to my previous question: How do you control the fan speed? I ask since this is the most confusing part for me.
Thanks for reading, hope to get some answers!
Thanks you for that
My first time hearing your voice! 😮
Спасибо за видео и за вашу работу
If you freshly install windows and need to connect to a network without wifi. You sadly can't without installing the LAN driver. You will need a separate computer to download the LAN driver on a USB and then plug it into your newly built PC, then install it. You will now have access to your internet after installing
Just my one input, get your motherboard network drivers or Intel ethernet drivers.
By sheer coincidence, I'm having a coffee while watching this video. Well done, Matt!
Haha nice! Maybe it’s not coincidence, maybe we’re just dialled in… 👀☕️
It would be good if you mentioned the different types of Windows Keys. Finally, there are some that you can only activate once, or where you have to hope that you are not deactivated by the actual owner.
Someone who decided to talk in a calm way in a computer related video, what a joy after listing to obnoxious fast talking loud Americans! 👍👍👍
Hi Matt. I was wondering if you could review that new cooler everyone's been talking about. The JF13K by Jiushark. Okay it's not so new, but I'm definitely interested!
Hello, I have a suggestion for you, you can build a PC with thermaltake Divider 200 TG Air Micro Chassis
Thank you!😊
You’re welcome 🤜🤛
i wish you were i the US id buy this PC for sure
Hey Matt! Thanks for the guide I found you very recently and i love your vids!
Would you say Windows 10 pro is better than the 11 pro or why did you take the 10 over 11 ?
Too bad I'm in the US it would be cool to have a PC built by Mr Matt Lee. I enjoy the voiceover videos.
If you build one like that for the US, I would be very interested. I’d like to have a faster processor though in 64 gigs of ram basically I just want to max it out for Microsoft flight Sim. That is a beautiful PC.
About the RGB lighting, when you say "download the software for the brand you are using" are you talking about the brand of the motherboard?
love your content.
Thanks for the support and glad you’re enjoying it 😁
Matt think you miss one, if not the most important, thing… Bios setting 😧
You save that one for later drop on how you usually set it up, am I right?
Before commenting I should have read the description 😂😂
Hi there what camera are you filming on? And how many lights are you using to achieve sucha cinematic quality of your videos?
valuable
Im curious of Mr. M's coffee cup
Is armoury crate still full of bloat and use lots of resources in the background?
❤
what happens when you reboot or wipe the machine or uninstall the software that controls the lighting - does the lighting stay the same colour or does it need the software running to keep the colours synced?
Well….I see all the parts listed on the parts list….except, what about the monitor, why no monitor listed ? 🧐
coffee tutorial when???? :)))
So odd that you came out with this since im building a computer tonight. Last build was with a I5 6th gen toshow how long its been,
