Computer Hardware Tips : How to Change a Motherboard

[Filoz64]

you look like the guy from american pie

[DemangoProductions]

The fuck? he didn't say anything about the actual changing. I just heard something about screwholes and risers... thnx a lot

[PoorMarvoloSawyer]

What are the advantages to changing a motherboard rather than changing the individual parts such as RAM, Graphics card, etc?

[garyr1234]

After 30 years in the industry, I have never heard anyone break down a complex process in such simple terms... um, because it is not that simple. RETARDED

[deanmaherdkit]

thanks sean william scott. this was a great help

[QBisbest]

That's it now drivers or anything? Just remove mobo and pop one in?

[pathman2]

Judging from all of your videos you only have one shirt.

[pathman2]

Would you "kind of put the risers first" or would you put the risers first, you couldn't show the procedure as you have the camera and the computer there with you. Muppet.

[secretidentityman]

do u no where does the video card goes on the motherboard?

[f00tballfever]

@secretidentityman PCI or PCI-e slots

[RetroZero64]

Just a quick question, If I am planning to use all of the parts from my current computer, except from the motherboard, will my hard drive recognise my cpu, ram etc? Thanks

[platinum243125]

Nice motherboard! What type is it?

[HatroVille]

imagine..

*screwed the mobo*

*looks at the cables*.. uhh now what?

[tonib000y]

Shouldnt you hold the motherboard without wearing any anti-static wrist strap? :P

[MolotovDaSkwerl]

@tonib000y

it's not that big of deal, from what i know it's almost impossible to break it, plus you can touch exposed metal on your case

[BestTutorials11]

What?

[xLuciferProductionsx]

not very helpful...im pretty sure everyone here can find where the screws are and where the risers are supposed to be sooo as like 3 people have said....fail guide

[Mastermind12358]

lol what about all the connectors and stuff , as Coopersnow said , Fail guide .

[CooperSnow]

LOL fail guide.. tells us how to screw in a mobo.. what about all the connectors and stuff?

[slonutt]

my old gx150 dell wont recognize a sata to ide controler,i updated the bios and nothing... i was told by a dell tech that the motherboard has limitations and was not manufactured to recognize sata. hsould i swap out the mb only, or the cpu also ?

[fabes1276]

yes, the motherboard will have different offsets to accommodate ur case.

[ronytroche]

its possible to change the motherboard and the processor without having to installing the windows again????

[sweffe96]

Yes, your Operative System is saved in the HDD

[BigCowz]

do you have to put screws in all the holes because i havent and it seems to working fine

[fabes1276]

ya, it is the only thing holding down the board to ur tower. without the screws it will be loost. if its loose then it will be prone to getting knocked around which could loosen or disconect other parts

[sweffe96]

Absolutely not. Like the EVGA x58 Classified, will only fit into HUGE tower cases.
