Thanks for watching! Should I make a proper tutorial at some point? Seems like there's already enough build guides out there.

Small edit: CHA_FAN stands for chassis fan, not channel fan. Pardon my brain. Got my wires crossed after spending too much time with fan controllers.

Hey man! I haven’t seen you in a while and I’ve been watching you for four years now. Super glad you’re still making content! Thanks a lot ❤

Now we just need Lyle ripping this build video apart for old times' sake.

Hey dude! I started watching you way back in 2015 and have been dreaming of building my own pc ever since. Last year November I finally built my pc and I'm super happy. You were one of the mentors for the all pc hardware knowledge I have today. Keep up the good work buddy❤

Been watching since the newegg days. I still remember That new years eve stream you guys did

[DanteBogdan]

Tnx for the tutorial, I'm sure your friend will love his new PC.

Excellent video for new builders! I liked all the close-ups of connectors with their names/labels. I think this is a great video and will help many people! And it made me want an O11 Evo case 🤣🤣

[makunohatsu]

It's like listening to my dad explaining how to do the homework. Super wholesome and very informative! I'll definitely rewatch it in a week when all the parts for my build will get delivered to me. Thank you for the effort of shooting a first person POV, you rock!

The protective cover comes out on it's own after you close it with the cpu installed. Save a step :)

[maksatmax]

Love to see you back! Nice video with information of why and how stuff works! hope u put out some more of tech videos!

[Salfordshire]

As always, great video Kyle, you’re appreciated brother. All the best from Manchester, England.

Great walkthrough for the new generation.

I watched this video while I'm waiting for the rest of my parts to arrive this week but I'm very excited to do my first full build in 10 years.

I just got one of these cases with customized artwork, and man do I love it. Fits just about everything. And those Lian Li fans are so amazing. I love them.

29:52 CHA_FAN2 means Chassis Fan 2... Not Channel. Its called Chassis fan because Fans either mount on the CPU a.k.a. CPU_FAN... OR to the Computer Chassis a.k.a the computer case. So to reiterate. CHA means Chassis; not channel.

love this refresher video. even though building and doing warranty pc repairs is my day job, i can verify that this is a great video for beginners. A lot of good advice for new builders.

[sitordan]

Even though I've been building computers for over 22 years, I enjoyed watching this video. Nice to see you, Kyle.

[morgstormhammer]

CHA for fans stands for Chassis, I believe.

[amyn]

Building a pc is really a good thing. Never get bored of it and the steps guide is even better.

I’ve been waiting for a remake of the original video for years! I build 3 pcs based on the original video.I’ve learned so much about computers thanks to you Kyle!
