Buying a motherboard can be a daunting task for new builders, so in this video I break it down on three skill levels: basic compatibility, features & extras, and components & build quality.
*UPDATE AS OF 5/19/2020 -- AMD just announced that they WILL be adding support for 4000-series CPUs to B450 and X470 motherboards. They will need to set up a 1-way BIOS upgrade that will drop support for some 1st-gen Ryzen CPUs, and details are still forthcoming, but it's great news!*

I love how Paul's explained all this probably a thousand times before in random videos but still explains it calmly so even the dumbest layman can understand. Respect the patience, my man.
for first time builder only, why you keep watching it? thousand times...You lost it????

Finally someone who explain things for completely newbie people like me, some TH-camrs just say these weird names but don't explain what that is and I'm like "so wtf is this? It's important or an extra?" Thank you so much
yeah man, having him teaching me what the Z's and B's means in a motherboard was super useful. Although I might keep my pc for a few years without needing to build another one, still helpful to know and help someone.
AMD: AM4
Intel: LG111...
Elon Musk: My next kid's name.
1150, 1151, 1155, 1156, 1200, three different versions of 2011, 1366, 1356, 1567, 3647, and probably some I missed all in the last 10 or so years. I have zero faith that Intel will release a pcie4 capable CPU without a new socket, probably LGA 1201 or 1202.

@Jay _TooGoated Unsure, I just buy whatever motherboard is the cheapest XD
How to choose a motherboard in 2020: Is it in stock? Yes? Buy it and then choose the rest of your parts.
bahaha yea yea lol
Good Luck finding anything in stock!!
That's how I got stuck with a 3600x lol

I was just a teenager when I built my first computer, did it using your newegg guide and that systems is still running well even passed it down to a friend who uses it everyday. Been building PC's since
Now here I am, a grown ass bloke readying up to build a new machine looking for advise, thanks a bunch Paul
I was 17 years old when I built mine. Today I'm 24.
I am 17 years too, the difference is building a pc ain't an option for now. But I'll work hard and someday probably build one.
I've been watching your videos as I'm planning my first build and I have to say that this and your CPU buyers guide video have been two of my favorite so far. There are thousands of how to build and part picker videos but I would love to see more of these multi level deep dives on all PC components. Hopefully the rest are coming soon! Thanks for the easy to watch and easy to understand video!
Stranded away from home due to the quarantine but been binge-watching and learning a lot through these videos. Niiiice.

Hey Paul, I just wanna say thank you. One day I thought to myself that my MacBook Air wasn’t doing it for me in basic performance to even play Ravenfield so I went out to look for a gaming laptop. I looked around and found nothing I liked so I looked for a tutorial to see how difficult it was to build a PC. Yours was the first I found and you were the one who got me to now have my fist custom PC. You are a legend and I hope you can inspire many others to build like you did for me. Awesome video btw
I too have a macbook, didn't buy it it's a stupid school computer, but apple is 100% not worth it at all. PC is way better and I hope to be building one soon
Brendan Booth It’s good as a netbook. Anything else it just falls apart.
Thank God you didn't buy a gaming laptop. Bought an alienware 13 r3 3 years ago and it's given me nothing but trouble until the motherboard finally fried itself.
Same, I’m getting tired of my 8 year old MacBook Air dragging itself across every application. Been bit by the PC building bug and just yesterday I bought my Ryzen 3600, a Phanteks case, and an ASRock B550m Mobo. So stoked.
heck ya bro
This is a great video. There are so many reviews of specific items of hardware, which are extremely useful, but there's definitely a gap of videos about the general principles you should apply when picking a part. I'm planning on doing my first build this summer (hoping stock availability and prices go back to pre-Covid levels some time soon) and this was very useful.
One thing I am struggling with right now is figuring out how to determine how much cooling/airflow is needed for your CPU/GPU combination, and how to tell apart the quality of different power supplies (as well as determine what wattage you actually need). A "3 levels of skill" style video on cooling and PSUs would be so useful to me and I'm sure many others.
Hey Paul, just wanted to say I really loved this video and the amount of information provided was really well done. You should totally make videos like this for the other various parts of a PC! This info helped me understand the motherboard a lot better as well as gave me great insight in what to look for when shopping.
Having a hard time choosing...
Because they’re all sold out

Thank you Paul for making these videos! It's been more than one and a half decade since I had a desktop, and wathcing your videos in the past few years, along with Linus's, Luke's, Jay's and Dmitri's is what gave me the knowledge and motivation to finally build one completely on my own. I just ordered the parts yesterday and can't wait to start.
Keep doing what you're doing!
Greetings from Hungary!

Added as an algorithmic thank you for giving me a way to avoid ever having to explain motherboards to anyone else ever again! Cheers Paul :)
Hey Paul, this was one of the best video comparison/explanations I have EVER seen, and I have seen a lot! Thank you for the tremendous value and the no fluff all facts with just the right amount of detail! Really, really well done, thank you!!
You forgot Level 4: Buildzoid

@Ignatius David Partogi I got an x570 Taichi for my 3600. I don't upgrade platform very often, and want to be able to support whatever the highest end chip ends up (4950x or what have you) while still being able to overclock.
Also. It was pretty, and I am vain.

He is not a level, just a nerdy hobby, you never need those skills, soldering????
Just find a board, don't make it yourself!!!!!!
Building my first PC right now and this video was extremely helpful. I have my Case, and decided on my CPU, but have been struggling to figure out what motherboard I wanted. Thanks Paul! Got a happy new subscriber from me 😁
Paul!! Your hardware channel Rocks!! Thank you for your in-your-face information that is so lacking I feel on the web!! Pulling back the curtain and showing the real deal is soooo sweet!! Thanks!
I've been looking high and low for a good comprehensive summary for motherboards so I could get up to speed about what the chipset numbers mean, what the dimensions are, and more for MOBOs since I just never knew and this was the only video that covered everything and not only that but in a cohesive, logical, easy to digest manner and in a good order. Thank you very much.
Love these back to basics videos because when people come to recommendations I can point them to you
Another excellent video! I think one item you should consider when selecting a motherboard is which cooling option(s) you're going to use, the number of fan headers could limit your options.
Thanks for the great information. Easy to understand, very well explained, with references to other resources for more information. No time wasted on drama/entertainment! This is one of the few tech videos I don't watch on 1.25 or 1.5 speed, and never fast forward. Subscribed!
You good at what you do. Some people talk to much with to much info and poor explanation. But you talk and deliver everything thanks man love the channel.
This video single handedly answers all the questions I've had over the last year about mobos since I started really building up my pc. All my uncertainties have been put to rest thank you.
0:12 the amount of strength just to hold the laughter in
Lmaoooo
This was an excellent presentation. Your breakdown of skill levels and the details associated with each was very insightful. Looking forward to your next installment.
This was a very good, in depth but easily understandable!
I do level 2 already but for newcomers these basics videos are probably gold!
I look at the whole set-up on a main board. I look at the Wi-Fi, Bluetooth version, number and speed of the lans, number of m.2 slots. I also look at the quality of the sound section, and whether or not that there is onboard video.
While I don't use liquid cooling, it is an option on the control headers that I look at in the event that air cooling is not enough.
RGB lighting control is a plus if I just want some distractions.
I usually use top of the line mb's. They tend to last longer and give better options with the extras I look for and use. I don't always use the latest and greatest mb's. Previous versions are usually the best buy for the money with the options that I like.
Good video tutorial. Thank you.

I've been building PC's for YEARS and I know all there is to know, but I still like watching these videos for some reason haha
khrom
same
At least the quality has gone up on the videos.
I like watching, when new components come out. Like that I can see if I do need to get a new part, or save my money and wait for the next tier in parts.
because it's relaxing to watch paul and kyle, i watch alot of tech videos but mostly those two
Wasn't expecting to watch the entire video but you presented things in a way that made the topic interesting , thank you !
I'm glad you shoutout of thoses YT channels, I look after them regularly
Should probably have talked about M.2 slots and quality of front/rear IO. Full ATX boards usually have the space to fix eventual shortcomings through PCIe cards but it's an extra expense and complicates cable management.
"ties everything together, like a nice rug"
Good reference, dude!
Yeah well, you know - that's just like... your opinion man.
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
I thought he was going to say like some tweezers
@Jay _TooGoated a good one
duuuuude
Subscribed! He just explained everying I've been reserching for like a week. Wish I found the vid sooner. Thanks for making it!!!
This is the firdt of your videos I have seen, and it's the absolute best video covering this topic imo. You get to the point, explain everything well and don't add to the confusion. A beginner would be very kucky to come across this video. Kudos man. Subbed. I've been doing this stuff since the VIC20 was a thing. Again, WELL DONE.
I always pick cpu and motherboard before picking a case.
When I build my parent's PC had to pick a case that would look nice since it would be more visible, it was on the ground floor. But personal computer always mobo/cpu first.
case is a non issue, too personal
lucas rem true dat!
Yup! That's how I do it
It depends on what kind of build. It's i'm going ITX. I always pick the case first. Since it's the most restrictive build type. With ITX upgradability is usually limited to what case you have. For mATX or ATX builds the case is less important.

If you put the timestamps in your description starting with 0:00 you should get those nifty chapter breaks on the scrub bar.
Excellent video, clear and informative, useful for both the the beginners and this experienced engineer. (I designed and built my first computer 58 years ago at 13. Most of my design experience has been unrelated to PCs, dedicated realtime control designs the Pegasus telemetry and guidance board. It's been 30 years since I last built a Windows PC from parts, so I don't keep up with it until I need it.) This video strikes a near perfect balance, avoiding both the dumbed-down ditch one one side and the assuming-they-already-know-the-jargon ditch on the other. Thanks, great job.
I’m new to the pc world and I’ve watched dozens of videos on this stuff. However I will say you are the FIRST video I’ve watched that I’ve actually understood and was able to keep up. With that I say that you and I subscribed
I feel like you missed a very important part of choosing a motherboard - connectivity options.
For many people, 6 USB ports might not be enough, especially if one of them is Type-C. Some keyboards nowadays need two USB ports, some headsets need one, a USB soundcard or an audio interface need one. Add a webcam, a printer, a capture card, an external hard drive - and you might get overrun by things that need a USB port. Sure, those can be added via PCIe cards, but this is often more expensive than just buying a board with more ports and can lead to weird compatibility issues, especially with devices that fully utilize high-speed ports' bandwidth (webcams, capture cards and VR equipment are the worst offenders).
M.2 slots often get too little attention. Some people might take advantage of multiple and/or high bandwidth LAN. Thunderbolt 3 is also is incredibly useful.
All of this helps to show why the crowd favorite B450 Tomahawk is hugely overrated. To me, rather pricey an ATX board with 6 USB ports and 1 M.2 slot is a joke. Its mATX sister B450 Mortar is not only cheaper, but has 8 USB ports and 2 M.2 slots, yet nobody recommends it.
Hard agree on the Mortar MAX, the tomahawk has no useful advantages over the mortar. SLI and Crossfire are dead, so mATX should be just as if not more relevant than ATX, yet it's the other way around strangely.
A cheap USB hub easily solves the issue of not enough USB ports, but he does also mention that different motherboards will have fewer USB or sata ports briefly at 9:00. I'd assume M.2 slots would also fall under this umbrella when looking at what connectivity options a motherboard has.
The Tomahawk is often recommended over the Mortar because it's an ATX board, which will give you more room to work with, and also because the VRM is better for people interested in overclocking. Not many people use more than one M.2, and as mentioned before USB ports aren't really a deciding factor for most people.
Well if you didn't know this, the mortar is not sold in the USA. So your entire argument is redundant.
@@miniweeddeerz1820 well if you didn't know, US is not the only country in the world
@@termiguin1 B450 doesn't do SLI at all, the chipset itself doesn't support it. Mortar still does Crossfire, so not even that is a factor
0:03 Anybody else notice the middle mobo is upside down? Is this a custom set up? Lol. Then magically goes right side up at 2:15 Then disappears at 6:27 wow that's "Excellent!"
Time travel is the only explanation
This bothered me during the whole video at first i thought he was having a balancing issue then when it flipped it,i was like ok fine. Then it disappeared and I'm screaming AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO GIVES A DAMN ABOUT THE RULES ANYMORE!
@@Painfully_Punny I have Siverstone and Riotoro cases that have a inverted layout. Maybe they travel too far in the future to get the first good AMD chip, Ryzen 1800x and had to travel back to get a b350/450 since b550 did not support zen1.
So if the mobo is inverted would it use a DWV CPU?
Very important info. So much info packed in a short video. Though you were a little fast for me. Thanks

A shout out to Paul, thanks for teaching me how to build my PC back in 2013. I purchased all my parts from newegg back then and got the sabertooth z77 motherboard. Still using the PC with all original parts except the SSD drive, which I just replaced. I just found your youtube channel and liked and subscribed; wish I found it a long time ago. Thanks again

I've been using your videos and Linus to help me bld my next gaming PC for 1440p. These videos have been super helpful in what to pay attention to since I am not tech savy or intelligent. Hoping more videos that focus on other core components out in 2020 will release soon, they're a game changer.
Paul, your channel is simply EXCELLENT!
I always find it quite irritating that "CMOS" ended up being a common naming for the BIOS settings memory. As most of you surely know, "CMOS" originally comes from "complementary metal oxide semiconductor" which is a type of manufacturing process for transistors in ICs.
Hey it's Intel here. Just to let you know, every time the clock hits 7 you need to buy a new motherboard.
would like but 7 likes...
At least it is a promise they can keep.
At least they didn't mislead audience and buyers.
If things go as what AMD planned and no Zen 3+++ refreshes, b550 will only be supporting 4000 series CPUs... Which is basically Kabylake but worse because Kabylake chipsets at least support Skylake CPUs while b550 doesn't support 3000 series and below.
That's why you never should've bought a board and plan for upgrades. Buy whatever is best now and right for your current CPU.
@@cunnyman b550 does support 3000 series chips but not the 2000 series cpu's. Will need to use b550 for 4000 series because b350, x370, b450 and x470 won't be supported for them.

Good Stuff...Been probably 10 or so years since I did a PC build...but finally decided I need a current up-to-date PC. Plan on a build after the AMD's 4000 series chips come out.

Good video! Thank you for dumbing it down! I’ve got much more clarity now

thank you for the tips bro, i really needed to know this since I'm building my new system rlly soon and I wanted to check if the cpu and the motherboard was gonna work together, I'm very glad that they will!
Here for Intro to computing class project..lots of helpful details thanks!
i would like to petition for an 8th core component, a cpu cooler. its just me but i think thats a little forgotten about component
But since AMD is the only competitive cpu producer on the market right now cpu coolers don’t matter cuz amd comes with stock
The amazing Lian Li 011 Dynamic has 1 major flaw, it can't support some 140mm tall air coolers. As you imply you can get to the end of your dreambuild checklist and screw up this critical component.
Krunker Boyzz Not all dude. The 3950x doesn’t come with one.
Zach Silver Well threadripper doesn’t but let’s face it barely any of us can afford it

Level 4 is for museum people only? On PS only museum!
So weirdo that everybody is trashing it? hold on all your 1999 gear for ever! Voodoo days......
You own any remastered PC title? or you meant remastered to run on PS5 now? PC never need that...it runs old titles!

I'm at level 0. Level I'm broke and just live vicariously through youtubers having cool shit. I constantly build PCs in my mind.
I'm like, "Hell yea! This mother board, this cpu, xyz graphics card." I have an absolute monster of a PC in my own head canon.

9:05 that table could be mildly confusing to a beginner having AMD chipset specs and chipsets yet having a Z490 at the top in place of say X570? Just a weird thing love the video though!
I think maybe that was mislabeled and was in fact supposed to be X570; I haven't looked up the specs but considering it's marked "Yes" as having Precision Boost Overdrive, I think that's the case.

And then there's the 4th level: the elusive, mystic and forbidden level of building your own motherboard.
I just realized that Intel is like Apple, selling parts separately
What?
you know thats how cpu works right? even amd and every cpu company
Thank you, please always keep explaining this stuff. New PC builders always come in by the day thank you
great video pal
a huge level of information with clear explanations.
Keep it up
I bought a B450 board this month, what do I know!
You need to upgrade If you want to get the new Ryzen 4K series
Your not the only on , I built 2 PCs with b450 motherboards. One was for a friend and the other was for my gaming PC. I plan to keep the CPU for at least 5years unless the board or CPU die.
Had my 3570k for 7 years , still work fine. But it was time for an upgrade.
If you don't need pcie gen 4 your b450 will be sufficient enough.
Relax the 8th and 9th gen good for another 3yrs
@@SuperHANGER18 yeah, I know, hence the 'what do I know' 😂
I'm level 0 because im still trying to learn about computers😂 wish it was as easy as cars were

Thanks for the video Paul! I felt like all the info was still relevant even a few years later and will continue to be so unless things change really drastically for whatever reason.
