I couldn't help but post this. I know people are going to complain about how old this is, but this is just hilarious.

He's posted five videos explaining how to build you own PC, I haven't finished watching the first yet, it's too cringe worthy. :D

Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Part 5

Please at least watch the first 30 seconds of the first video, I just can't bear the way he speaks. :D
 
He talks so much different in these videos. :D:D
He actually sounds like he knows what hes talking about. :p
 
Aint it bad to build up a PC on a CARPET!!!!!1!??

£2200?? for that? Are you sure, my PC cost me around £750 and proberbly is quite abit faster.

I knew he would return!

I'm looking forward to watching these tonight, makes a change from BB!
 
"Whatever you do, make sure you don't plug screws into those four holes round the CPU socket." - Must be something he learnt the hard way :)

Fair play to the guy for trying to help others but jeez, get your facts straight and buy a tripod!

Whats a tripod for? I used them in science class, never for PC Building tho :confused:

I'm watching it.

"That's where you put screws through to NAIL this to this board here."

:D

He's also installed the motherboard before properly installing the CPU + HSF.

I install the mobo before properly installing the CPU/HSF, I just totally take out the mobo tray from the case and put the case on the floor and then do it all, surely that's ok?

It works, but it's much better to do it beforehand as it saves you putting loads of pressure on the standoffs.

It's also the best way to teach people as if they install the motherboard then realise they have a screw-fitting heatsink they'll have to take it all off again :p

:edit: He does a David Brent at 0:20.
 
Love how he does a close up shot of the FPS which is 60.... but on the Lost Planet title screen :P

Also is that the Xbox360 version of Lost Planet? When he starts is say "(A) OK" as in to press the A button.

But with the CPU coolers now adays they just clip in, I would have thought just sitting the mobo on a solid surface and not secured would not be as good as securing it on the tray then clipping it in?

My main worry when building is stressing the mobo, I mean my Mobo wont even screw properly to my case, the whole right side cant screen on as the P5N-E SLi is abit narrow :s.

Bit low that for the title screen, usualy 127+ for me, guess he's got Vsync on. The PC versions has the Xbox 360 buttons too :\

Yeah he'll have VSync on, but it's just an odd place to show the current FPS on the title screen, instead of in game.
