Building My First PC (with details & tips)

#pcbuild #rtx3070ti #lianli #nxzt #corsair #gojosatoru #3070ti #whitepc #gamingpc

I know all-white PCs are super popular nowadays, but it’s something I’ve always wanted to do! I love the clean and minimal set up. I’ve learned a lot building this computer. I hope this video was somewhat interesting and can help those who are new into the PC game like me!

I am not 100% done with this set up. I still want to change the GPU cables, but NVIDIA strictly states that we should not use anything without the splitter. Also, please leave any tips and suggestions you might have!

MISTAKES I'VE MADE:
- bottom fans wrong way -- I have fixed this & flipped them to where the air blows out on top
- yes, I have a mousepad now LOL
- monitor should be 1ms, 140Hz+ (will upgrade later when I have the funds)
- Don’t build the motherboard on the bare table.
- Motherboard does not have support on the right side (Case did come with parts for it, but I did not realize this until after build.)
- Peel the plastic on the case BEFORE turning your PC on 😅
- It was brought to my attention that I should clarify that this entire set up did cost me over $3000 when I built this in early 2022. This is NOT a budget-friendly set up! I worked very hard to save up for this. Don’t worry— it is POSSIBLE to get a similar look for a lower budget! Please use my parts list (in description) as reference and do your research!

You should flip the top fans to make them exhaust and the bottom to make them intake so they don't clash with the gpu, it might not look as good but your temps would improve. Aside from that really nice pc build!

Since you have the two radiator fans as exhaust have both the top and bottom fans as intake. Positive pressure is better on the temps. Beautiful build by the way.

You're partner is very supportive and proud of you at the end, it was nice of him :)

Very nice of you to include the PC Part Picker list. Too many PC builders on YouTube don't and us viewers have to take the time to hunt and look for the parts/components for a similar build. When I do my first PC build I will do the same. Who knows it may be very similar your build with a few tweaks.

Thank you! I've been looking into build my own gaming PC lately and this will be very helpful (since it would be my first as well and not gonna lie the idea was intimidating). I especially love that you included a list of all the parts you used and I'm really digging the aesthetic.

Clean build, but i do want to recommend 1 thing. you have all this high end equipment but with this build you’re being limited by your monitor. 75hz is pretty low when you have a 3070 capable of up to 200+ frames. so at the moment you are capped at 75 frames. i’d recommend a 140hz so then you can really see what this pc is made of. anyways super sick build again!

nice video! i recently built my own pc a couple months ago and used a lot of the same parts u did including the case. actually i think the only difference is the mobo, cpu, and gpu.
heres some tips: the lian li case comes with an atx mobo extension bracket, you should add that since it didnt look like you screwed down the mobo on the right. it shouldnt cause issues but if u want the mobo fully secured add the bracket!
also you should set the bottom fans to intake (cold air at bottom) and the top fans to exhaust (hot air rises), this will help with airflow and temps for your system and gpu.
i also used the nzxt cooler but i set it so that the tubes are coming out from the bottom of the pump block so they didnt push the left ram stick as harshly as it is in your build, again shouldnt cause issues but it might bend the dimm slot a little and overall looks better for aesthetics.
sadly i have no advice for your issue with the strimmer cables, i was considering getting those but just went for some braided cable extensions. hopefully you figure it out! i suggest checking pcpartpicker or the lian li reddit forum.
overall very clean build, congrats!!! :)

Cool pc and very well made video! If this is your first experience with a PC, then my respect, it turned out to be a credit!

[realmazurex]

pro-tip: one REALLY easy way to see if cpu pins are bent is to fit the in the motherboard, of they don't fit, the it's bent pins of wrong form factor

[marleneschramm]

This is great, I just started to buy the parts for my first build (should be getting them tomorrow) and a lot of them are the same as yours. Its nice to see them together so I have an idea what my computer will look like.

Really beautiful build but I suggest for those of you that are getting into pc building to put your motherboard on top of the box it came with since it wont damage the back. You do not need to do this but I highly reccomend it since you can scratch the back

[kaiipop]

Super cool build! I'm waiting for my PC and its components to come and can't wait haha
Also love the Gojo background lol :)

[ziyahussain]

Love the build! Maybe you can put a small display in the back where you were considering putting a fan.

[darienvalencia]

Your setup is perfect! Every single part... Just amazing. I wanna something like that. I've my setup build with my laptop, in black colors, but your workstation is very nice.

[Greazyeel]

I noticed you used a 280mm AIO cooler, pcpartpicker listed a 240MM version of this same Z63 AIO, I'm thinking that the smaller version may have given you enough room to add that LED Screen in the front you wanted. That would have been a great addition to your beautiful build!

[Timkorporation]

On the Evo dynamic case where you mounted the radiator I believe you can flip the mount for the radiator/fans and it may give you more room for the screen that you mentioned you wanted on the front panel, or you could mount the radiator on the top, have those fans exhaust and have your bottom fans intake and side fans intake, there’s lot and lots of configurations for this case though and you almost can’t go wrong how you do it. You have a very nice clean build. I personally have this case and went with an upright gpu and I can’t get over how much I love it!

[creepp.]

btw switch the fans at the bottom to intake and top to exhaust, since hot air rises you want cool air from the bottom and the hot air to be exhausted from the top

I am also currently building mine in white but with a budget. I can only do black and white theme for now but will go pure white once I have the budget. Nice build.

[abhardwaj]

I’m on a constant roll of watching first builds lol
