Best video for new builders

[Owen the Trusty man]

I am planning on building my first gaming pc soon. I know the basics, but I don’t know how to fully build a pc. I am planning on using a YouTube video to help me build it. What is the best, most descriptive build guide video out there?

I find Bitwit's video to be the best one to watch, it's super in-depth, explains concisely what to do, and has that relaxed vibe while still giving you the complete details.

 

 

Alternatively, you can watch past livestreams of PCs being built, so you get an idea of what the process looks like, and even follow along.

one thing you won't find in any video is diagnostics.... it's one of the things i absolutely hate about the "anyone can build a pc" mentality.

 

anyone can assemble parts but when something is wrong , thats where the video's information is of no help. thus we have hundreds of people dumping onto the forum when their new pc they only knew how to assemble doesn't work. yay for us. lol

Where this at? Forum's been pretty quiet lately. I think if people use pcpartpicker for compatibility and watch a video while they build they won't really have any issue.

Just stay away from The Verge's 2K build guide.
