it is though, i literally did it as a 15 year old. i thought i fucked it up for a bit, turns out i forgot to connect my graphics card to the PSU. only error I made with my first ever build, and my second all i did was not stick a stick of ram in fully. its really easy.

The only real hard part of it is the front panel connectors and maybe any liquid cooling you got.

i recently build a computer in that very case and i know for a fact it comes with a simple fold out instruction sheet telling you to install the PSU before you put the motherboard in.

Other than that i see no problems here.

Your first build will be full of anxieties as you wonder if you are doing something wrong but then everything will work out and you will have no problems in the future.

If OP is serious, baring any dead parts which is incredibly rare I'd be willing to bet he simply has the cpu cable backwards or something. Its about the only thing you can get wrong in a build.

Your AIO cost more, is louder and is less efficient than a tower cooler.

Unless you're on an m-atx build there is 100% no reason for water cooling outside of a full custom loop.

It's okay, user. Not everybody possesses average intelligence. Some people are a little on the slower side, and that's okay. There are still plenty of opportunities for folks like yourself, like janitorial work or grocery bagging.

Custom loops are going to be better typically than a 120/140mm loop but a standard 240rad will be on par with literally any of them. Its only autists who would ever care about the difference really. The parts don't care if they are running at 25c or 30c. Literally anything under 60c is perfectly fine.

you know average originally didn't mean what you think it does, it referred to the sum of the cargo lost when shipping overseas. so it really meant something wasted and lost. so much for your average intelligence.

Water cooling has fans + pump. Air has fans.

Which means an AIO will ALWAYS produce more noise than an air cooler. Just grab a noctua whatever, it'll outperform the AIO and be cheaper + quieter.

To get near parity in performance/quietness you'd need to buy noctua fans anyway, further increasing the price discrepancy.

You're ignoring a whole bunch of factors. Cases matter, some leak noise like nobodies business, others don't, and while obviously more stuff make more noise (No shit retard) its AUDIBLE noise that matters.

A radiator and pump is so silent, at least in my experience, with my cases, that I don't hear them, and with good quality fans, you don't need them either. And those combined still cost less than a custom loop, while providing the same cooling and none of the downsides. Stop trying to argue that custom loops are anything but a meme, because they aren't. Back when fans were dog shit and closed loops didn't exist they had a place, but nowadays they may as well be RGB lighting, they serve the same purpose, making your "rigs" look good to other autistic faggots. They are simply not as good as a good air or closed loop set up.

....Do you not know what "RPM" means or something, you fucking retard?

I'm not even a water fag, but you have no idea what you're talking about if you think those fans aren't running slower on a rad.

Attached: 1568470130731.jpg (446x460, 32K)

I'm saying water cooling has no purpose, barring a custom loop, which is when you can actually get better performance. My argument is against AIO having no logical reason to go to, barring m-atx/itx builds that an air cooler can't physically fit.

A D14's fans would run at a lower rpm then any 240mm rad AIO that likely costs 20-30% more and performs worse.

First time I built a PC, literally the only part I had trouble with was installing the front I/O to the motherboard.

I bought a really cheap motherboard and the "manual" was only a single piece of paper. They didn't explain where any of the front I/O went, so I couldn't get the PC to turn on at all.

Take it to microcenter. Lol

Built my first PC when I was 13 in 1993. Back when we had to set IRQs, motherboard jumpers, and Master/Slave switches. Building PC's today really is like legos compared to how it used to be. There's no reason you shouldn't be able to figure it out.

Motherboard goes in the case first, then you build up from there. The case is a ground for static electricity which can wreak havoc on a chipset.

what about when one of them touches the case slightly making the most annoying buzzing sounds?

oh fuck I forgot about irqs. slave/master was never that bad though. ribbon cables not working was more annoying imo

What the fuck? IT IS.
Just put the piece in there and start that shit up.

>It's like riding a bike, or a first cousin
wait, what?

>I'm saying water cooling has no purpose, barring a custom loop, which is when you can actually get better performance
And while you're 'right' you're also wrong. You get better performance, but it makes absolutely no real world difference, at all. This wouldn't be the case many years ago when fans were shit and closed loops didn't exist, but nowadays water cooling is something people do for fun or to show off, its not at all cost effective, and not at all needed even in the most outlandish, top end overclocked system.

if you cant figure this our your actually a retard, its literally legos

Probably has to do with the style of play they did early in life. People born before 2000 grew up with legos, action figures, and other shit without screens. We fine-tuned our motor skills early in life. Something as simple as making 2 action figures fight required insane amounts of precise finger placement and motion to position the limbs just right with hand. People raised on electronics will never hold a candle to the motor skills of a boomer.

Actually the weight is better distributed this way then when its on the side.

FUCK

If I'm not mistaken, RAM banks are no longer picky about placement either. Back then, if you had 4 banks and 2 sticks of RAM, you had to check the motherboard manual to see which slots to put them. It usually alternating. Like XOXO. If you put them side by side (XXOO) it wouldn't work.

I played that PC Building Simulator a while back and noticed it didn't give a fuck where you put the RAM. I thought it was a bug at first.

>You get better performance,
Not him, but no. You just need to get good fans. The thing with water cooling is the water itself is COOLED BY FANS. I shouldn't need to get into a physics discussion on heat and energy exchange for you to realize this entire process just complicates the very simple goal of cooling off the CPU. Not to mention the cooling portion of a CPU water cooling setup is a brick that covers 2 1/2 massive fans on the front of most cases. This blocks a third of the airflow into the PC, assuming you have 7 intake fans. And, by the way, those fans being blocked are the one aimed right at the fucking GRAPHICS CARD which needs the most airflow in that case.

The only reason to use water cooling is if it's a complete internal-loop with an external refrigerant that's doing the cooling. And that is just stupidly overkill.

everyone's a little retarded, except for me, i am really retarded.

Built computers on carpet for over 20 years and never had a problem.

The first job I had after getting my A+ Certification (this was around 2000) they told me to take this old computer out back and put it on the sidewalk and blow out the dust with a canister vacuum on reverse. Needless to say vacuums are total static-electricity generators and this went against everything I was taught. Which including such fun things as the electronic discharge strap you wore on your wrist and clipped to the case.

The computer survived. But I couldn't help but wonder how many they'd killed doing that.

it shouldn't be too bad static really can't travel through air all that well.

Honestly that's not so bad. Dissipates heat from the parts at least. Honestly never understood water cooling. I had a friend who worked in tech and fucked around with nitrogen though that was rad.

>it's as easy as legos bro!
It really is.

Water cooling's really only useful if you're doing some pretty gnarly overclocking or constant workloads. It does have a legitimate benefit in that you can redirect the heat to a more optimal area and expand the dissipation of that heat with bigger radiators. So it isn't ENTIRELY a meme. But for most people, stock clocks are more than enough for air to handle, and considering how low-maintenance it is, it's generally a better option for most people.

That's a good thing. The tubing probably acts as a series of miniature radiators.

Static destroying things outright is rare but the issue is it can damage components leading to instability or failure later. Not taking basic precautions is retarded.

And are still shit

Fixing the thumbstick on the switch fuckers is a nightmare because you have to undo 6 fucking ribbon cable connections to get into the controller deep enough to remove and replace the thumbstick, and then connect them all back and relatch them with all the clearance of a switch joycon.

Still not as bad as having to solder on the cables for rumble packs in some cheap xbox controllers because god help if the wires snap from the chinese soldering job the whole pad short circuits and is rendered inoperable.

They are not 'hard'. It is not *difficult* to screw the power supply into the designated location. It is not *difficult* to slot the specially-designated CPU into it's specially-marked slot and use the locking mechanism. None of these steps are hard, they are just elaborate. Each component is not a LEGO, each step is a LEGO.

When I bought my first PC as an 18yo I did buy custom parts, but was simply too scared of fucking up. So I bought assembly service along with the parts. Cost about 50 eurodollars, but I didn't think it was such a big investment when the total PC value was close to 1000€ (and all of my summer trainee salary).

Later I got to practise with old junk PCs and realized it wasn't that hard. Built my current rig about 4 years ago, and it has worked like a charm.

I do admit however that when dealing with delicate, expensive electronic components, there's always an element of anxiety.

bc its happened to you or someone you know right

how many pcs have you ever built? bc its several hundred for me

buddy that picture is like 8+ years old

Depends on the heat sink and case. With a lot of them you absolutely need access to the back of the mobo to install the heat sink, and while the majority of good cases have an access panel on the other side where you can properly install it, I've seen a couple absolute garbage cases that either have no access at all to the back or a tiny opening that is functionally useless. Those are mostly the cheap shitty ones though, or pre-built in which case you're too lazy to worry about that in the first place.

Ruins the camo. Speaking of, what the fuck is up with modern computers only having (if you're lucky) 6 USB ports? I have a 4 in back, 2 on the side, an additional 7-port PCI-E card in the back, and 11-slot external AC-powered hub, and a 4-slot external hub, and every single plug is in use. I don't think anyone could have anticipated how far the USB protocol would go, but it's about time we adapted computers to it properly.

>ben eater
Absolutely based

Now that you mention it, heatsinks themselves can be so large that it causes issues working inside the case. For example, the RAM banks right next to the CPU bank. If the heatsink is as big as it should be, it could be tricky safely seating the RAM or even the graphic card.

who cares, cable management dosent impact your airflow at all. It just for fat nerds to complain about something.

Plenty have more than 8 ports. Standard motherboard has 6 + 1x 2.0 usb header + 1x 3.0 usb header.

Not to mention any usb 3.0 port can draw enough power/has enough bandwidth for anything you need if you buy a usb dock.

USB 3.0 can't handle more than 7 ports, and it requires a separate AC feed to support the power needs. For example, most of the time that people complain about VR headsets losing tracking, it's because the headset is plugged into a hub without an external power feed.

The heatsink really is the only major problem with messing around with computer internals. GPU's, PSU's, HDD's, SSD's, case fans, it's all trivially easy, but the moment I need to start fucking around with the thermal paste and the heatsink, I know I'm in for a miserable ordeal.

Depends entirely on the cpu and fan

I don't use stock coolers just for the fact that in the past they were 1000% a bitch to put in correctly, unless that's changed in the past decade. Last time I used a stock cooler was like 2007 though.

not op but why is it that sometimes with parts that are definitely compatible there are sometimes those one or two niggers that are just super fucking hard to physically push into their slots? Ram and the cpu cooler in particular seem to be the most common annoyances. Has anyone ever straight up snapped a motherboard from pushing so hard on a cooler or ram?

Oh wow, weird, but good to know

>in the past they were 1000% a bitch to put in correctly

in the past (that you are referring to probably) they were extremely easy to put in. intel: put on top and push the pins down

what is hard about that

You only need an aftermarket heatsink if you're overclocking to 5GHz or something equally retarded that has absolutely no practical benefit unless you work at Pixar.
Stock GPU coolers can sometimes be shit but only if you cheap out and get the lowest-tier MSI cards or whatever

Power backups tend to plug into the computer and relay real-time information about how much longer the battery will last in an outage. My CyberPC one has one. With my computer, networking equipment, and monitor all plugged in, it says the battery can keep it going for 18 minutes. The software has other features like forcing computer to sleep once it gets halfway drained to extend the battery life 50-fold so information doesn't get lost. Useful if you AFK alot.

you cannot snap a mother board no matter how hard you try

you kids are really fuckin clueless about this shit. afraid to put a little force on something. jesus.

Worst fucking feel, you actually gotta be a bit brute strength about it too sometimes or it won't go in properly sometimes, it's unnerving territory

I always put the motherboard on top of the box it came in with the anti-static bag in between and never had a problem. I like to think the box takes most of the force when I have to push any piece down.

Just build up an immunity to fan noise by sitting in front of a loud one for 12 hours a day, what are you retarded

Yo I have the exact same desk but I ended up taking the top part off. Shit's falling apart now after like 8 years of use.

I imagine it'd work very well, actually. You wouldn't need to drive it at desk fan speeds to achieve good airflow inside the case.
The only problem would be that unless you also had a huge dust filter, you'd need to point it outwards and have filters on the intakes with no fans, which means low air pressure inside the case, which means that dust will get in through any openings in the case.

>you forgot to install the i/o shield

The old push and twist pins on intel stock coolers from like 10+ years ago were notorious for being a pain in the ass. I remember having to go through the same shit every time I put on thermal paste where one of the pins would always refuse to go in, and then I'd have to spend a good like 20-30 minutes trying to reseat the thing until it'd finally go in. It happened every time to me on several different PCs with different motherboards. You can even look up a ton of old forum posts from that time about how intel coolers were pieces of shit. Again, I don't know if they're still like that, but that was my and many other peoples' experience with them.

Can confirm, just upgraded from an i5-2500k to a Ryzen 7 and when I took my old mobo out I noticed all the little plastic screws on the Intel cooler were stripped
It was literally just sheer luck that it never fell out

why do people refer to assembling a few parts as "building"?
do zoomers have such low standards that they think this is what building is?

I have put together 3 computers, forgot and left them off each time

You should end up just giving those parts to someone who actually deserves them and shoot your retarded ass afterwards.

You sound angry and poor, amd bitter because you're poor. Yes it's ill-advised but as long as it doesnt break the parts it's ultimately a non issue

Unironically thank you for putting a red square around that shit, i definitely would not have found it otherwise

What's wrong buying a pre-built one? I'm planning to get my first PC and worried I'll be too retarded to build a PC so it feels somewhat safer to just get one at the store.

>Build computer

you aren't too retarded to build a pc. it's extremely easy. there is literally no reason for *any* person who comes to places like this to buy a prebuilt

The only thing I hate about building computers is when it comes to all those tiny cables that has to go into tiny sockets with tiny-ass text next to them. FUCK that part is frustrating.

Post the part where his ceiling falls down.

I discovered two different ways of putting heat paste on the internet. One of them could possibly fuck up my processor.

The only difficult way to build your own computer is if you're doing it with a breadboard and a microprocessor chip. And even then it's pretty easy as long as you read the datasheet.

Anyone here collect free, broken old computers and parts from decades ago and build functioning computers out of them? Just me? I thought so.

JAM IT ALL IN THERE AND CLOSE THE CASE

>not being able to determine what is a reliable source of information or not

Jesus you losers should do a meetup if you think slowchat is so awesome. OP could show his faggot PC again.

That's not quite true.
If you really look into some good stores, you'll find prebuilt ones at a reasonable cost. They do tend to have not ideal parts, but atleast it's working.
As an alternative, you could get one built for you at some website/store. That way you have control over what's going to be in AND you can't fuck shit up.

You're still overpaying for what you're getting though. If it's a decent price, it's most likely horribly outdated or has some other flaw you'll find immediately when you get it home and take it apart.

Don't.....Don't do this.

Some of the shit i've seen and and read in this thread hurts my soul.

There is so much wrong with this picture i dont even know where to begin with

I chose my parts individually and paid a guy so he build it for me cuz back then i didnt know how to build a PC

Why even have the case at that point? Why not just keep all the components in a big pile?

All parts are either copper, nickel or brass, all of which are compatible. Yes, nickel is very slightly more noble than copper, but I won't be running this for 20 years so it won't matter.
I'm a plumber. I've been a plumber for 10 years.

Shit user how are we meant to know you're a fucking retard if you don't have your handler post for you?

Sort your neckbeard nest out man, Jesus Christ.

its better idea to choose parts by yourself and pay like, ~20$ extra for online shop to assemble it for you.
choosing parts is actually easy as fuck, just make sure your choose correct CPU slot, and DDR3/4
also it would be wise to buy larger parts, larger case larger mobo

What the actual fuck? I've changed thermal paste and checked the cooler a couple of times already. Also looked around online and tons of people are having the same problems as me while AMD claims that it's working like intended. What the fuck is up with AMD and furnaces?

Fucking burgers and their carpet floors

Because it's completely pointless, more expensive and comes with a serious risk of irreversibly damaging all of your parts.

Carpets go on the floor not the wall, you silly goose.

This

I had the exact feeling, brother. I don't know why I decided to do it in the middle of summer, on the hottest days of the year. I was fucking dripping m8.

It would look a lot nicer if you skipped the case entirely, and just put everything in a big wooden box/crate.

Looks like you're doing okay though.

You wouldn't order all those parts unless you felt okay with assembly, would you? You not a moron, are you?

If you think that's bad be glad you didn't buy a modern Intel oven.

t. irrelevant country fag, thinly veiled seething that got they dropped on their head on hardwood/tiles as baby
Sad honestly.

I remember on the 775 socket mobos like the 680i and x48 ones, there is no cracking sound at all when the CPU is inserted. It's a somewhat new phenomena. I can confirm it's normal to hear on LGA2011 boards.

Brainlet detected.

protip - install on motherboard everything you can before you put it in pc

prebuilts often cheap out on some parts, like good cpu, gpu but horrible psu which will burn down and take all pc along

Have basically no fat people in my family.
Chances are if you're an eufag though your country's obesity rate isn't much better.
Imagine being fat and irrelevant.

>all heatsinks ive ever used are secured to the front around the CPU
That's new. On most mobos until a few years ago (I'm not sure when it changed, maybe somewhere between 2009 and 2012), on most (or maybe all) mobos the heatsink was secured with a backplate. Nowadays some still use a backplate but most don't.

Fat, irrelevant and poor reading comprehension.

I know, but for getting started with something, you can buy a prebuilt one.
And I don't know where you're getting the notion that you're overpaying much. Well, it is regular in big stores, but I've been skimming through alot of stores work related, and I've seen a fair share of prebuilt PCs from named Brands that were fairly good with their Prices.
But beware, most, if not all of them, were not consumer PCs or consumer stores.
If the complete price of Parts on the market is 1200$ and the prebuilt one is somewhere around 1300-1400$ish imo it's a fairly good price + warranty.
However warranty on prebuilt PCs is trash, and getting a company to build one for you is far better, because you'll have warranty on the individual parts instead of a stupid seal on your PC that you're not allowed to break even if you want to change or upgrade

There is one legit pro, sometimes you need cooling capacity that simply can't be facilitated by a aircooler on top of the CPU for space reasons (typically with small/tight PC builds), so you have to move the heat exchange elsewhere. Performance wise, there's zero tangible benefit relatively speaking.
>Computers are not people who burn up with a bit of heat, and the idea that you need to keep a sub 30c temp or run the risk of damaging your shit is a joke.
>Hasn't run their CPU at 100% for hours/days on end to render something out
The constant heat abuse will damage the CPU eventually, better to keep things as cool as possible to mitigate that for as long as possible.

Nah that sounds really weird, no offense. I'm going to keep using legos.

You get warranty on your parts anyway, sure its easier to buy prebuilt one, but theres always someone to ask for help etc. Ive helped many friends and acquaintances put together rigs. Its just a matter of asking. We all know someone who is into stuff like that

Fuck off to /pol/ you nigger faggot tranny spazmo

I was watching a weekly video game show on tv as a kid and one time they showed a segment naming new pc hardware and brands for about 5 minutes. Then they showed the games and they looked a lot better and more varied than what I had seen on the ps1 or n64. It also looked like it was aimed at teens and not kids, they also showed mature rating games running while the guy narrated.

It was in 1999 or 2000. So 11 years old? I just asked my parents if I could have a computer for school work.
So I bought the parts from a nearby store, spent an hour picking the stuff, off-brand motherboard, duron cpu, riva tnt2, 64mb of ram, 8gb hard drive and monitor. Assembled my pc myself, installed the os and drivers. Back on a windows 98 machine.

You OP and the rest are just fucking retarded. Simpletons doomed to fail at life even when everything is simple to use and handed down to you nowadays.

Usually they charge quite a bit for putting it together, so you pay much more of its value. Also you are often forced to buy the pre-installed OS too, which is basically free if you ain't stupid, or can get it much cheaper elsewhere.
But I give you that, you save the trouble of researching if your components even work together or not. Some coolers don't work on some mobas, the chasing might be too small, so on, can be a bitch. For some it might be worth to pay like 50% more.

It's not. when it's in a case, it has (~9) stand-offs bolted in.
