Here’s a personal note of mine, based on certain builds I’ve seen. While installing an AIO with an intake configuration, you need to pay a lot of attention when you’re mounting the fans. If the fan holes aren’t visible on both ends before you attempt to install the fans, you run the risk of driving the fan screws directly into the fins of the radiator - potentially impacting its performance.
@SirChristoferus 5 місяців тому
Also, if you’re planning on using a custom AM5 bracket, be sure to install it when the motherboard is resting on a flat antistatic surface when the standard bracket is removed from the board, as that area of the motherboard’s backplate will detach if it isn’t being held against the motherboard itself.

Watching this on 0.75 playback speed instead of normal playback is much better. I felt like I'd had too much caffeine and sugar on first watch, as it's like everything is being said and explained at hyperspeed to fit in to the 15mins. Much better with it being slowed down slightly! Great video by the way, very informative and perfect for me as a newbie, just bring the pace down a notch 🙂

First time I built mine I forgot to plug in the power connector for the aio. I turned on the pc and watched as the cpu temp went from 0 F to 98F in about 10 seconds. Parents thought it was normal but I knew I that it was way to hot. Glad I knew my facts and didn’t listen to my parents.
@SirChristoferus 5 місяців тому
I remember having something like that happen. I noticed that the temperatures kept getting random spikes, ultimately culminating in a failsafe system shutdown. Upon investigation, I found the problem - the CPU_FAN plug was only partially inserted. It was enough for the motherboard to accept the AIO pump, but not enough for the AIO pump to properly manage and detect the temperatures.

Pre-Built is probably a better option for most if building a PC. The reason is if you buy all the individual parts each can have its own issue, if there is one, or you if damage it. This making the warranty redundunt! Plus you have to figure out what part ir parts are the issue abd us it your fault or the parts fault. Pre Built you usually have return/repair 2yr(+) , iry extened, warrenty. Any issues then rhey will deal with it. You wont have to mess atround figuring out what the issue is. You wint need to replace/send back/fix/configure the part/issue. Its actually not that more expensive buying a pre-built and can actually work out cheaper esp as P&P is usually free - rather that shopping around, probably have to pay P&P too and then waiting for each part. Also dealing with all the packaging too.

anyone have a take on antistatic tools or are they not necessary
@JJFlores197 13 днів тому
They're not absolutely necessary, but you still need to be aware that electrostatic discharge (ESD) is still a potential threat. As long as you take steps to minimize static electricity build up on you, you should be fine. The bad part about ESD is that there isn't always immediate damage and there is no easy way to tell if you've accidentally damaged something. It may take months or years before something creeps up or maybe nothing happens at all.

Hey Geeka instead of how much budget do you have, how much do you REALLY need to play games in 2023/24 so people don't actually spend their entire budget... Toughts?
@Safetytrousers 5 місяців тому
It depends on what kind of games you want to play at what resolution and at what desired frame rate. The needs of 4k 144fps is going to be very different to 1080p 60 fps. You could play at 720p to maximise budget. If you can tolerate potato spec play then you can build a potato spec PC.
