Jacob Billing! His guide to building a PC!

Can't believe he had all the components laid out on the carpet, he must like to take risks with his hardware. Just waiting to see him do a guide to overclocking. "Just keep rasing the FSB til there is a nice red glow coming from the cooler".

What a NUB.. Love the part about if you have a faulty fan you might have to plug it into the 3pin chassis connector, rather than the 4pin cpu fan... Guess the nub doesnt realise that modern motherboards can shut the fan off completely until needed.

And his thermal paste.. eeew

I wouldent think his E6300 would actually run cool enough that the fan dont even need to spin up with that thermal paste tho, let alone the stock cooler.

When you install the motherboard onto the standoffs, and install the RAM, CPU and heatsink - you're sometimes using a lot of pressure, for the RAM or heatsink.

When applying downwards pressure on a motherboard mounted by only 6-8 screws, then the motherboard is almost certain to flex. If a motherboard flexes too far, the circuit tracks in the motherboard could fracture - and remember that some circuit boards can have upto 4-6 layers. :eek:

Where possible, it's best to install items in the motherboard on a flat surface. If not to ease the pressure on the brass/plastic standoffs, but to prevent damage to your motherboard. ;)

I dont think there is a Core 2 Duo motherboard with less than 6 layers, up to 9 layers is common now, and some have 10.

They are designed to flex a little, and it really is no problem to install memory, or even the cpu when the boards installed in its case.

Surprised me with the badaxe board, it does take some time before the fan comes on, and on very rare occasions, (had the air con on full blast) the can can turn off again.

Can change the setting in bios so it defaults to minimum speed slow instead of off and then it spins all the time.
 
Oh dear, he's put the mobo in before putting the CPU, heatsink/fan and memory on board.
Another trick I have done since my 386 building days is to cut a magazine up and directly place it underneath where the RAM goes so that if you upgrade you press down onto the cut up magazine.
Perhaps mobo's are stronger now but I've seen many cracked mobo's from people inserting memory.
 
Scripted..

" notice these little holes in it"
"Basically thats where you put screws through to nail it to this board here"

makes me laugh. He is good but uses the wrong terminoligy.

His thermal paste application looks identical to a video he posted a few months back, just seems to have removed the hsf a few times since then, that paste looks like someone took a dump on the cpu from a few feet.

Is it that hard to follow instructions that are available online with very little searching? Youd think by now with the amount of people telling him he hasn't a clue about applying paste he'd go and check it out.

I posted on one of his videos saying that he uses the wrong words lol. Can't wait for my reply.

David Attenborough? David Twattenborough more like!
 
It got me thinking about making my own video on how to try and build a PC now, but I think everyone would just think I'm trying to do a jacob like my last video. O_o
