 So the normal first-time PC builder usually takes an entire day or the entire weekend to build their first computer So in this video, we're gonna see how fast an enthusiast like me can get one done Today's video is sponsored by NordVPN. Now for those of you that don't have a VPN You really need to have one. For those of you that don't know VPN stands for virtual private network And what it does is it helps protect you when you use the internet If you don't use one you leave yourself open to any malicious person who wants to get a hold of your data and information I have had a friend of mine have his identity stolen online and to be honest It wouldn't have happened if he had a VPN it also wouldn't have happened if he was not going on websites He shouldn't have been on but yes a VPN could have prevented that now There are other uses to a VPN for example Let's say hypothetically You are a person who is suffering from something called article 13 and you already know that your internet experience is being Dramatically censored and the only way around that would be to use a VPN. Anyways, Nord VPN is hooking us up with a special offer They are giving you 75% off of a three-year plan. That's available at Nord VPN comm slash Christopher I have the link on screen as well as in the description. So go ahead and check that out Please trust me. You do need a VPN The rules are simple as soon as I start the timer I'm gonna try to put this computer together as fast as I can and it officially counts as built once we see a post on a Monitor I'm trying to speedrun this computer build similar to how Jays2Sense did it for those of you who don't know who Jays2Sense is You probably live under a rock He's one of the biggest computer PC tech youtubers out there and he also has a video similar to what I'm doing right now So I figured what better opportunity on a day where I don't have a lot of time to time myself So we're gonna try to do the same thing that Jay did where we have for the most part the rest of the parts box But the case will start off unboxed He built his computer in just over an hour So we are gonna try to beat that time now obviously this isn't an apples to apples comparison because we are using different parts Than what he used but this will still give a pretty good idea of how fast I am also to make this a little bit more Interesting not all of these parts are brand new this graphics card came used in an Amazon return box And this motherboard actually came from a fan for free However upon giving it to me he told me that he actually fried his processor doing some weird Overclocking in this so both of these parts. I'm not entirely sure if they work So while I might finish this build correctly and get a really good time There's no guarantee that it's gonna work. So now that you got up to speed. Let's quickly go over the parts So the first two parts we're gonna be talking about are the case and the power supply for the power supply We have a pure power 11 which is a 600 watt gold rated power supply from be quiet and our case is a dark base pro 900 also from be quiet for our ram We have 16 gigabytes of RGB trident z which is made by G skill and it is clocked at 3,000 megahertz speed which actually works really well because of our processor our CPU is going to be a Ryzen 7 2700 the non x variant which is an incredibly powerful processor and has eight cores 16 threads and can handle just about anything you would want to throw at it now for the cooler This does actually come with a stock Wraith cooler However, I wanted to make this look a little bit nicer So we do have a Wraith prism that we're gonna be using instead of the traditional stock cooler for our graphics card We have an RTX 2070. This is the aces rock Strix variant is an amazing looking card And obviously it performs very well too. I just I hope that it works and for our motherboard We are gonna be using a rock Strix B 450 f motherboard It is not the most powerful motherboards doesn't come with a ton of features But it does look somewhat nice And you know what we're still matching by going with the rock Strix versions and then lastly for our drive We are using an m.2 SSD. It is 120 gigabytes from Pioneer. Yes They mainly make audio equipment, but this was a really cheap $20 drive. So I figured I'd go ahead and pick it up So now that we've gone over all the parts without further ado, let's get started Hold up. This thing actually looks so clean. By the way quick a little pro tip cases when you get them brand new They usually do come in this little cloth sheet as well as the styrofoam pads after you touch those you usually have a lot of Static going through your body. So before you start touching the cases, make sure you reground yourself Go touch something. I'm gonna go do that really quickly so that I don't fry any of the parts All right Oh, there's already thermal paste on it. I'm cheating. Let's go. I Can't see the triangle. I'm going blind. I'm actually choking under pressure. Holy. Oh I need tissues and tissues space Wait, it doesn't have the back all the brackets. This is ruining my time We're improvising. I refuse to pause the timer because I am a trooper. I can overcome this It's not coming off The transplant, let's go. Oh Please tell me this is the same dimensions. I'm gonna actually kill someone you ain't gonna do Alright, we got it. We're back Why did no one tell me that I was screwing the brackets the other way? I'm just gonna go second and Screw it in the case now. Oh, no, no, no and that to end up to I need my small screw Why did I have my tools prepared? Why did no one remind me? I am a big boy. This is actually the story of my life. I cannot find the hole. Is that my screw? Wait, I found it I found it We'll clean that up later. Wait a second. This case is actually so much more complex than I thought Don't turn around just don't turn around don't turn around the timer's not there No one's gonna judge you if you don't finish under an hour just yourself and your parents and everyone on YouTube Your future girlfriend. Don't laugh at me. Don't say future girlfriend was funny I'll get her one day and if I can't get her organically. I'm sure there's enough money. I can pay someone What's next? Power supply How does it get in wait what I've never what it has a switch and everything on the back Hello, this is some weird shit. I'm be honest with you right now this No, no, that's that's not slim thick. That's not gonna fit in there. How does it get in there? This part come up is the front on God. This is the most Great case. I've ever worked with thanks be quiet. So in hindsight, this was not the case to speed building I'm just gonna start getting these in while I wait. You're probably thinking well I thought this guy was really good turns out the power of editing just makes him not looking like an idiot Why why can't they just be like NZXT? It's a total of five screws to get the shroud out You have got to be kidding me. They put five screws the fifth one. You can't even touch. What if I do this? What if I fuck the instructions that shit's for quitters? Oh Right here like this. I cannot reach in and screw the other two bottom screws down So you guys are just gonna give me a little winky face because we both acknowledge that I'm not I don't need to do that We're gonna start threading our cables through Yes, yes, okay CPU cables in I Need to put the graphics card in I'm pretty sure that's it. Is that it? Come on. Come on. Come on. I'm not gonna lie. This card is thick. Okay. There's Eight minutes left. I think I could get the the computer to power on with the bill be done No, but I could get the computer to power on. Oh, come on. Get up Okay, fuck that piece and this cable so short Get in there. I can may I can maybe barely get this shit on time Wait a second. Am I gonna get this? Okay, oh don't choke you come so far don't choke. Where's the power button on this thing? Where's the power button? No wait, can I short-circuit it? Would it still go? No Connection that I fucked up. Was it a Connection it's functioning. You could see it. It's functioning. Oh My god, did I miss a front panel connection? What was it? So the computer is not turning on but there's clearly power going through the motherboard But there are certain things that are happening in here right now that lead me to believe that the motherboard probably is Dead, but certain parts of it are still functional So I did finish this in under an hour. All right, the proof is there But just to figure out whether or not it really is the motherboard I'm gonna go ahead and swap out another b450 board that I have lying around and we'll figure out what this actually is Okay, I've switched out the motherboard. I put all the parts back in Only took about two We're at the two hour mark. All right, let's see please say psych So after 16 hairs have been pulled out of my eyebrow and about a handful of hair of my head has been sent onto the ground I I cannot figure out what is wrong with this computer for the life of me I'm gonna blame it on myself. This was a trial run. Okay, if you don't like the ending of this video I apologize, you know my bad but I did have it done in an hour and What we're gonna do is we're gonna try this again in the future But we're gonna do it better than an hour. We're gonna one up our time. Okay, this is not the end We will be back. This is not over. All right, so before the video ends. Thank you guys again so much for watching I really appreciate it.
