WEBVTT

00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:06.319
i'm ready you guys might want to grab some popcorn it's probably going to be a

00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:10.800
little while because i don't know what the i'm doing i have built two

00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:15.839
computers in my lifetime and this will be the third so nzxt has sponsored this

00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:20.480
ShortCircuit uh by sending over their nzxt build kit and

00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:24.640
they are going to prove to us that building a pc for the first time can

00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:29.279
actually be easy i guess let's get to unboxing

00:00:27.279 --> 00:00:35.449
um i might need a knife or something to help me get in to this

00:00:35.680 --> 00:00:41.360
i played softball for eight years that's embarrassing is this supposed to help me

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:47.200
unbox this jono i don't understand

00:00:43.760 --> 00:00:47.200
i i can go to the gym

00:00:47.360 --> 00:00:54.239
i mean to be fair how do you open a box with this i don't understand

00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:58.399
is this what everybody uses on ShortCircuit to open things what the crap is

00:00:56.559 --> 00:01:04.400
this what is this so if you are a first-time builder uh i

00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:08.000
guess not like me but similarly to me or an experienced builder at that

00:01:06.960 --> 00:01:11.520
um this is perfect for you so first things

00:01:10.479 --> 00:01:15.280
first it looks like we have

00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:20.880
a checklist so this shows us

00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:24.880
all of the steps uh based on levels which is actually quite

00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:29.119
a fun concept and then we've got our

00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:34.240
adventurers map i will give credits to the graphic designers at nzxt the

00:01:31.520 --> 00:01:38.720
website and the illustrations on here are absolutely beautiful everything is

00:01:36.720 --> 00:01:45.799
also labeled accordingly which is so nice see hey motherboard we've got our

00:01:42.880 --> 00:01:53.759
beautiful hard to come by 3060ti graphics card c650 psu the kraken

00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:58.240
m22 millimeter

00:01:55.759 --> 00:02:01.920
is it millimeter milliliter mm millimeter um i've never actually

00:02:00.320 --> 00:02:07.040
installed the liquid cooler before so i'm excited to see how this works we've

00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:12.160
got some parts actually we can reference our list here

00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:15.360
and see what parts are in here so we got b

00:02:12.959 --> 00:02:19.599
which is the eight Gigabyte RAM sticks we've got c which is the CPU

00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:24.720
we've got d which is the SSD and then we have i

00:02:22.720 --> 00:02:30.160
which is the wi-fi card then we've got this beautiful

00:02:26.319 --> 00:02:30.160
kit of all of our tools

00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:37.840
i'm really excited all right so let's get started

00:02:38.959 --> 00:02:46.160
our checklist oh i need a marker i gotta make sure i'm doing all of this properly

00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:49.280
and as intended even these illustrations

00:02:46.160 --> 00:02:52.239
inside kind of help tell a story while

00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:57.360
you're immersed in the building the computer building experience so one

00:02:54.640 --> 00:03:03.120
thing that i find super awesome is not only do they have the instruction manual

00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:07.280
accessible online as well but they also have qr codes so that you can access

00:03:05.440 --> 00:03:11.599
walkthrough videos if you still don't understand the written note instructions

00:03:09.440 --> 00:03:14.000
all right level one let's do this installing the memory

00:03:13.200 --> 00:03:21.920
so it looks like i'm gonna need a and b the motherboard and the RAM sticks and

00:03:19.920 --> 00:03:28.959
i'm also going to open my tools kit

00:03:25.519 --> 00:03:31.760
no but i want to see what's inside

00:03:28.959 --> 00:03:36.560
we've got some zip ties phillips zero screw head

00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:40.879
no it doesn't it's a it's a twisty thing it is an attachment but i just don't

00:03:38.799 --> 00:03:44.480
know what this this type of attachment is called a wrench

00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:49.280
i guess i have to be gentle i said this last time

00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:56.319
okay oh so we have 16 gigabytes of memory and

00:03:52.720 --> 00:03:59.599
they are 3 200 gigahertz no giga

00:03:56.319 --> 00:04:00.560
mega transfers oh my gosh okay

00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:05.680
all right i got a click from both sides

00:04:02.799 --> 00:04:11.280
i leveled up i have here the AMD ryzen 5600x take

00:04:09.200 --> 00:04:16.880
care on this step i'm glad that they show the importance of being gentle with

00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:22.400
different components locate the CPU socket which we have here

00:04:19.280 --> 00:04:25.280
they include photos of both one for AMD

00:04:22.400 --> 00:04:30.080
and one for Intel CPU so that no matter which motherboard you have

00:04:27.840 --> 00:04:34.960
you can reference the images without fail without any issues

00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:37.280
i'm scared i've seen Linus do this many times

00:04:38.960 --> 00:04:43.919
look at that it's in and now i close the socket

00:04:42.880 --> 00:04:48.880
so if i reference the illustration you can

00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:53.040
see they've got this black part here and i'm assuming that's this part of the SSD

00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:58.960
that i have which means that it would be inserted

00:04:54.720 --> 00:05:01.120
this way up so it doesn't seem like

00:04:58.960 --> 00:05:06.800
the screwdriver is magnetic which is a little bit of a downside in

00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:09.360
the instruction manual it looks like

00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:14.960
it shows that we could potentially have an aio cooler or an air cooler with the

00:05:12.880 --> 00:05:18.720
streaming pc you get an aio cooler which is what i have here but with their

00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:22.800
regular standard pc you get an air cooler they should probably include like

00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:26.320
a small illustration of the screws rather than me having to

00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:30.479
go back to the manual that came with the water cooler to figure this out all

00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:34.320
right so we are moving the build into the pc case i guess it's time to unbox

00:05:33.520 --> 00:05:42.560
this this is the h510 nzxt case it's so pretty i just love how

00:05:40.160 --> 00:05:46.400
simple and clean this case is and my instructions

00:05:45.039 --> 00:05:52.180
you know it could probably knock somebody out and then you can give them infinite

00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:54.160
paper cuts

00:05:54.160 --> 00:06:01.360
time to install the motherboard we are on to level level five and we are

00:05:59.919 --> 00:06:06.800
moving these components into the computer just like the instructions say

00:06:04.080 --> 00:06:11.280
we are on level six and this part is relocating the fans let's see how we do

00:06:09.039 --> 00:06:15.680
this no i don't i'm hoping that this

00:06:13.600 --> 00:06:20.720
instruction manual will show me it even shows you exactly where you'll

00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:25.440
find the zip ties so i'm not like wasting time looking for things

00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:28.720
i always just look at the illustrations but

00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:32.479
there are there okay there's words there for reassurance

00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:35.680
i'm gonna do my best guessing because this

00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:40.400
piece right here actually doesn't match the illustration that i'm seeing on here

00:06:37.600 --> 00:06:46.319
quite exactly with that being said if this is the correct orientation i can

00:06:43.840 --> 00:06:51.360
refer back to this photo or illustration here which shows this part

00:06:49.120 --> 00:06:55.039
which means i am to place it this way

00:06:52.880 --> 00:06:58.479
i think it does go this way does it

00:06:56.160 --> 00:07:02.639
oh i got it right okay and and where's the bananas i need a

00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:04.880
banana wow

00:07:06.680 --> 00:07:11.440
ltdstar.com should we measure the fans

00:07:11.919 --> 00:07:18.400
so it looks like it's about a seven inch

00:07:15.440 --> 00:07:18.400
fan hi

00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:32.319
i wish you could help me like i wish i had a partner in crime

00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:37.120
here but i'm really just doing this on my own

00:07:33.520 --> 00:07:37.120
uh okay i'm screwing things now

00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:44.000
so i have screwed in the fans to the fan bracket and then reattached that to the

00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:47.680
case and we're on to the next step power supply

00:07:45.520 --> 00:07:52.160
it's this is like a ton of mini inbox unboxings in one big unboxing the

00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:55.599
non-modular looks like it comes with a pre-attached cable the semi-modular also

00:07:54.240 --> 00:08:00.720
looks like it comes with a pre-attached cable and then the modular which we have here

00:07:58.080 --> 00:08:04.960
does not come with any cables attached and we've got this uh beautiful nzx

00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:09.440
teabag that you could also reuse if you wanted it it

00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:16.080
could work as like a makeup bag or something yeah this is great can you fit a banana

00:08:13.919 --> 00:08:21.599
inside of the bag yes if you have exactly eight inch

00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:28.080
bananas you can put them in the bag quit measuring the bananas sarah

00:08:25.039 --> 00:08:29.360
plug in the cable labeled either PCIe or

00:08:28.080 --> 00:08:33.200
vga PCIe here we go i've plugged in all of

00:08:31.919 --> 00:08:40.399
my cables that the instructions have told me to plug in and i will be

00:08:37.599 --> 00:08:44.880
now putting it into my computer case so level eight is for cable management now

00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:48.480
for the sake of this ShortCircuit actually being short we're gonna skip

00:08:46.640 --> 00:08:53.040
this step but for people who are building their first computer uh it does

00:08:50.880 --> 00:08:56.959
show quite detailed instructions as to how to do this uh so with the power of

00:08:54.959 --> 00:09:01.120
movie magic all the cables have been plugged in the instructions are super

00:08:58.880 --> 00:09:05.440
clear and easy and how to do that so we're on to the next step so following

00:09:02.640 --> 00:09:11.440
instructions i will now attempt to install a water cooler for the very

00:09:08.640 --> 00:09:15.279
first time in my entire life the cables go towards the RAM

00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:19.600
so therefore the cables go towards the rim

00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:24.640
and then i just have to screw it in so i'll put the washers back and then

00:09:21.839 --> 00:09:28.800
screw it all together and then we'll come back to this okay i see this this

00:09:26.959 --> 00:09:32.160
part is here right it's supposed to go this way correct

00:09:30.640 --> 00:09:36.320
but this okay now this is not my fault this is not my

00:09:34.080 --> 00:09:41.279
fault nzxt this is your fault this is your responsibility the logo here right

00:09:38.959 --> 00:09:45.200
here facing this way that's how i have attached the fan is with the logo facing

00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:48.320
upwards fix it fix it

00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:54.800
so now the CPU cooler is in and all of the cables are plugged in

00:09:52.880 --> 00:09:58.000
we're ready for the next step the prized possession

00:09:56.320 --> 00:10:03.720
the holy grail the GPU

00:09:59.600 --> 00:10:03.720
okay wait wait wait wait wait

00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:10.959
there we go now we just slide it out

00:10:07.680 --> 00:10:10.959
see i've got this

00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:18.320
finishing touches all right we're almost there no you should never

00:10:16.079 --> 00:10:21.279
close your case before you turn it on oh really

00:10:19.680 --> 00:10:25.440
okay but we gotta listen to the instructions david so

00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:29.519
it's time to put the side panels back on to the case

00:10:29.680 --> 00:10:37.839
yeah so this is my own error it actually does mention to push this little flappy

00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:42.079
bit back but i didn't do that so now it's inside you know

00:10:40.079 --> 00:10:46.880
i'm confident and then i'm not confident there's always that uncertainty of one

00:10:44.079 --> 00:10:52.160
cable not being plugged in properly or even a RAM stick not being seated

00:10:48.560 --> 00:10:54.399
properly and it's bound to happen uh but

00:10:52.160 --> 00:10:59.519
i'm really hoping that by following all of these instructions

00:10:56.320 --> 00:11:02.240
properly that i won't have any issues

00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:02.240
from this way

00:11:05.760 --> 00:11:13.600
does this mean it works i did it

00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:16.800
my third computer build was a success this made the building experience so

00:11:15.839 --> 00:11:23.279
easy other than a few little things here and there overall

00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:26.720
as a third pc build for it to work right away

00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:29.440
i'd say it was a success thanks to nzxt for sponsoring this video if you're

00:11:28.079 --> 00:11:32.959
interested in getting one of these for yourself check it out in the link below

00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:37.519
if you're interested in seeing me build a computer for the first time go watch

00:11:34.959 --> 00:11:40.240
my first build video on the Linus tech tips channel
