At 6:45 when Linus mentions configuring the AIO pump header to match the CPU/chassis fan function: The setting is in the BIOS: Go to the Monitor section of the BIOS and scroll down to Q-Fan Configuration. In that menu, scroll down some more and you'll see the option to set the "AIO PUMP Control" to Auto (it is Disabled by default). Then set the "AIO PUMP Fan Q-Fan Source" option to "CPU" so that it matches the regular fan header's options. There you go!

Can confirm. I work in school IT support and this is very true. I have written very simple and succinct guides with visuals for staff members and there is always that one person who manages to mess up something. I go to great lengths to plan out my guides and find the most direct way to do a task. I take screenshots and even highlight exactly where they need to go or what buttons or options to press. I usually end up with a few people who couldn't figure it out. Very "fun" especially last 2 years during distance learning. I think I spend more time than I should planning out the guides. *slightly off topic here* I had a staff member freak out because she enabled OneDrive on her computer. It didn't alter her files, but she was freaking out because there were green check marks on her desktop icons. I had to explain to her what OneDrive is, the benefits of it, and that she didn't do anything wrong. It was a much longer conversation than that necessary. Several weeks later, I had to reset this person's password. Oh man. It was a nightmare. Before I reset her password, I asked if she receives work email on her phone. She told me she does so I told her that she will eventually need to update her work email password on her phone. For some reason, she could not understand how her computer login password was related to her email password. Again, it was an ordeal explaining to her all that information. Not fun.

rendering videos faster is only true if you use hw accel, which you probably shouldnt unless you run extremely high res with super crazy bitrate. If you're running 1080 you should just be doing cpu lossless or even lossy compression. It's much more efficient. Also if your machine has an intel CPU with an iGPU then you can use QSV which does numbers.

Love this video. Can you do a follow up for clueless noobs like myself showing in detail the OS install, the set up for general use/gaming ( bios settings, driver downloading, etc ), and the the actual process of getting started gaming ( where to go to down load games and how to download and start playing ). This video was very helpful, but I have already mostly taught my self ( with video help ) the hardware assembly bit, it is the software part I am completely clueless. I'm mostly interested in first person shooter games, racing sims using wheels pedals and shifter, and VR using Oculus rift / rift s. I've bought second hand used hardware/controllers and a cockpit frame from amazon. Also maybe some flight sims combat mostly. Any help with this side of the process would be a blessing, also please talk slow as I am an "old fart". The last computer I built was back during Operation desert storm aka the Iraq war part 1 when I was 20.

That unified front panel connector needs to become a standard. It is the one part of a system I either skimp on, leaving off the reset, HHD light, or it takes forever. One unified plug has been the obvious solution for well over a decade. It would greatly speed up system builds. Case makers should just blatantly rip off NZXT here. If I'd known they were doing this I'd have bought my most recent case from them simply for that feature.

It is worth noting that the 700 GD seems to have been replaced in 2020, as the 80Plus database lists two radically different models under this name. The current one as shown in this video looks OK efficiency-wise at least, the older model (fan on top if you can read the label) had poor 10% efficiency which is not a good sign. EVGA seems to have a very confusing lineup in general, with I guess multiple different platforms from various OEMs.

It is not that hard! To be honest I was most concerned about software stuff rather than putting pieces of hardware together or wiring them. But I made it safe and sound and I am confident I can do it million more times from now. I was also scared not to mess up something while putting the CPU liquid cooler on, but nothing to be afraid of. Watching someone else doing it over and over again makes me feel like if it was me doing it over and over again.
