 What's up internet? Dito's Hardware Sugar. Gusto namin na dumami pa yung mga tao na interested sa PC building, a hobby that we all know and love. So yung mga videos namin talagang sa dyan na beginner friendly, wala masyadong jargon, hindi intimidating. We try to approach PC hardware as very approachable. Pero atin-atin lang, alam naman natin mga enthusiasts na kasi nungalingan yun. PC building is hard as f*** and at least for this video, we're not going to pretend it's not. Tatala kaya natin yung ibang dahilan kung bat sobrang hirap and frustrating magboon ng computer. Pero bago noon, the easiest part of building a computer is activating Windows 10 kung kinungamoy activation code from our sponsor. Gusto namin ka lang ng Windows. Pero stan ko hukuan ng digit Windows? Daming options, daming prices. Aka nito. Gudi na lang, may cdkeyovers.com. Wadalilang kong order. Search for the software you need and to cart, daan ka sa payment options nila. Wala pang 5 minutes finished. May legit, working CDK ka na para sa Windows mo. Gamitin lang aning code para makakuhapan ng discounts. Kaya kung nagahalap ka ng legit, mura, at original software. This is an extension cord. This is a power plug. This is me plugging in the power plug into the extension cord. Wala pang 10 seconds, tapos na. This is me plugging in my very beautiful custom PSU extension cables from Cable Mod. Mga isang oras ako dito kasi sobrang sigyp ng space sa likod ng case ko. And we all know that cable management is hell. Yung PSU extension cables ko are what they sound like. You plug them into your existing cables and the other end plugs into your hardware. Dali lang sabihin pero in execution it's a real pain in the butt having to dig out the proper wires, thread the new cables through the grommets, hide the old wires and the new wires. Isang halimbawa lang to of how the simplest things can be super hard. Another example, yung pagpalit ng GPU. Dapat sobrang simple lang, di ba? Pero if you've ever had to remove a big GPU from your motherboard, you know that sobrang hirap hanapin yung PCIe release latch kasi natatakpan na siya ng GPU. So your fingers are there poking around in your motherboard kung ano lang hinahawak din, hindi mo pa rin mahanap yung PCIe release latch. And that frustration extends to adding basically any new part in an old build. Adding storage on paper sounds easy. All you need to do is plug in data and the SATA power into the drive and you're good to go. Pero kasi na sa existing build na siya, nakaset na yung cable management, sobrang sikip. If you watch that livestream, makita mo talaga na inayos ko siya off camera para madali na lang yung pagpasok dun sa additional storage. On paper, it sounds really easy. Just install a new drive. Pero sa PC building, walang madali, walang simple. Isang mali mo lang sa computer and you can waste a lot of money. And there are so many opportunities to make mistakes. There are the very obvious ones like getting incompatible socket CPU and MOBO or getting a CPU na akala mo may integrated graphics. Pero wala pala, so ngayon, kailang mo ng bumilin ng GPU. Sa PC building, maraming naradali sa maling akala. Kait ako, I built a new personal rig a few months ago. Full ATX size case. So akala ko, pasok lahat ng parts, hindi ko na sinukat. Ayon, patay ako, ang haba pala ng GPU. Tumatama na siya sa AIO. Fortunately, open type case siya, so inangat ko na lang yung AIO and I think it looks pretty good now. Pero siya, hindi po ay dito sa isang hardware customer. The customer expects that we know enough about computers. Nakaasya naman lahat ng parts na sinugest namin. And it's really those little things yung millimeters na clearance for CPU coolers, yung kakaibang ATX size case na SFX PSU pala kailangan, yung ang daming high-end RGB na obus na yung internal USB headers, so many little things that can really rec-a-build if you don't check them beforehand. Ngayon, iniisip mo, malamang tanga to si Anton and di mo uulitan yung mga mistakes ko. So mag-research ka and if that's the case, good for you. But RPC hobby doesn't make it easy to research kasi una, it's hard to research and pangalawa, it's hard to remember what you researched and both of those reasons come from the fact na sobrang gulo ng naming conventions sa PC world. For example, itong tough monitor, yung designation niya is VG279 QL18. You have no idea what all of those letters and numbers mean and maraming PC parts na ganun. Andami mga letters, dami mga numbers, but they're nonsensical. So nag-research ka, ano ba yung difference nung MacCube 110 sa MacCube 110P? For example, mag-aiba lang yung isang letter. Or ano ba yung pagaiba nung NHD-15 siyaka yung NH-U12S or yung NH-U12A or yung Dark Rock Pro 4? Those are all air coolers, but because the naming convention is just letters and numbers, you have no idea what they actually mean. Tapos kung numbers, iniisip mo logically higher number better. For example, yung Ryzen 7, mas maganda yung kaisa sa Ryzen 5. So let's say you take the same generation, so lahat sila 5,000 series. That kind of makes sense, right? Na Ryzen 7, 5,000 series, better than Ryzen 5, 5,000 series. Pero, ito Ryzen 7, 5,700G, but most people would rather get this, the Ryzen 5, 5,600X. R5 to, R7 to, but for a lot of people, mas bagay sa build nila yung R5 kaisa sa R7. Just because higher number si R7 doesn't necessarily mean that it's better. And again, that confusion that wala talagang sense yung pagnumber and yung pagname nung mga PC parts, kaya nakakalito. Ang hilig din ng mga manufacturers magalagay nung V2 or nung plus. They keep the same model name, but they just add V2. Yung problema, hindi malinaw, ano pa talaga nagbago? But siya naging V2? Ano nagbago dun sa V1 and sa V2? Sometimes, when they come out with a refreshed burst run, it's not even clear na V2 na siya. Nakatambak lang yung dun sa model number niya. Biglang lumitao na lang yung V2. And even asas sa shop when we get them from our suppliers, hindi rin binabangit ng suppliers na oi V2 na to. Pag tinanong mo rin sila, kailangan din nilang hanapin kung ano ba nagbago between V1 and V2. Ganon din yung plus. Andami mga models na something, something plus. They keep the model name but they add plus. And it's the same problem with the V2. You don't really know ano ba nagbago para mabigen ng plus yung pangalan. And sometimes, the changes are actually quite good. For example, yung Deep Cool CF120. Good ARGB fans, pero ang layo nung different nung sa CF120 plus, which has more lights and has the cutouts. The CF120 plus have more light bleed because Deep Cool cutout more portions of the fan. Mas kita mo na yung RGB. So there's a big difference between the CF120 and the CF120 plus. Pero dun lang sa pangalan, you don't, or you can't tell ano ba yung binago. And so just from the name, it's hard to tell do I want the plus, do I want the V2. Ok lang ba na mas muwrakunin ko yung lumang version, do I really need kung ano ba binago nila dun sa new version. Ayon, nakakalito. And when you're building a computer, sometimes you just think to yourself, di ba pwede simple lang, wala bang one size fits all? And yun talaga yun, unfortunately wala. Kahit simple lang layunin mo, I want a gaming computer. Andami pang mga questions after that. What kind of games do you play? RPG, Shooter, MOBA, MMO, Indie. Yung games ba na yun? More CPU intensive or must GPU intensive? What resolution do you play at 1080p, 2K, 4K? What kind of graphics card do you have? So dapat bagay yung sync na yun sa monitor mo, whether FreeSync or G-Sync. Yung simple yung objective lang na yun. I want to build a gaming computer. Andaming mga side questions that you need to answer and you need to know a lot about the hardware that you're using para tugma talaga yung bilin mo na rig dun sa need mo. Depending on how you answer all of those questions, ibang iba talaga yung build na mabubuo mo. Di lang sa gaming, you want an editing computer for example, yun, dami rin tanong. What kind of editing do you do? Music, photos, video. Kung photo, gano ba halaki yung mga raw files na ginagamit mo? Kung video, do you shoot in 4K? What kind of software do you use? Kasi paminsan, yung free versions nung editing software, di naman talaga ginagamit yung GPU. So sayang lang, if you spend a lot of money on an expensive GPU, you might as well end up activating na rin yung editing software mo. Kahit yung sobrang simple lang, work PC. Again, what kind of work do you do? Do you need something na 100 tabs kaya-kaya or sobrang simple lang ba na surfing, word processing, Excel files? Do you have a lot of things running in the background, like downloads? Do you need the PC to be able to stream properly para maka online meetings ka? And again, like the other builds, how you answer that will really change anong lalagay mo sa computer mo. Walang one size fits all sa computer. Kailangan parang damit yan tailored sa kailangan ng user. And depending on what the user needs will really change anong hardware na gagamitin mo. Ayon, four reasons why PC building is hard as heck. But don't worry, hang in there. Next video, babalikulit tayo sa regular programming where we're super supportive and yung attitude natin, kaya-kaya natin yan. We're gonna figure this out. We're gonna show builds. We're not gonna talk in jargon. Pero pa minsan, it's good to be candid and, you know, amini talaga natin na there are aspects about PC building na nakakalito talaga, super confusing, even for us who have done it for a long time. So, if you're just getting into the hobby or even if you're a veteran, definitely we encourage you to research. And to save yourself some stress, you might want to go to a trusted PC shop that can guide you in the proper components that you need and that can assemble them already for you.
