Best How to Build a PC Video Tutorial?

InfernalSurge · Jul 20, 2015

Hi, I'm looking for the best how to build a PC video tutorial. I'm a first time builder so I'd appreciate a beginner-friendly tutorial that shows every single step. My build is AMD-based if it makes a difference, and I'd prefer a more up to date video. Thanks in advance.

Here are my specs: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/V9FGFT

Honestly, if you played with Legos as a kid you can put together a pc. The hard part is knowing what parts to pick out. I think if you google "Assembling pc tutorial" you will get plenty results.

Thanks for the fast reply. I've noticed the tutorials on YouTube vary in length, some are 30 min while others are 90 min. How long would a first time builder take?

Does it really matter? I can throw a rig together in under an hour because I've done plenty builds, but it doesn't matter. You don't want to rush things, take your time. Any basic tutorial will do. It's literally -attach part A to part B- and so on.

Alright, I'll look around.

My first time building a PC took me over two hours. Most of that was making sure I had the motherboard connectors all plugged in correctly. Now, I can put together an entire PC in about 20 minutes. I've generally recommended the Newegg TV How To Build a PC videos.

The hardest part is sticking the case power button connectors to the pins on the motherboard. There is no tutorial for that, it's just kind of trial and error. Generally they are marked on the board, but it can still be tricky. Don't be afraid to do multiple takes, you won't damage anything if you don't get it right the first time and the PC doesn't turn on.

Typically, the negative cable for each of these front connectors are the same color. For example, if the connectors are blue/white, orange/white, green/white, etc... The white cable is the negative wire. That knowledge plus the motherboard manual makes connecting the front panel connectors fairly simple.

Oh and have plenty of zipties on hand, they're very useful for making cables go where you want them to

Compared to all the other components, this step is the hardest. (For me anyway) I hate those friggin itty bitty little pin connectors.
