This is so funny, I swapped from the MSI gaming plus board to the AMD equivalent of this board you swapped to. However, I swapped again and I just built in a louqe ghost s1.
upgrading my motherboard to switch to a new processor platform, myself. Upgrading from a dual-core Intel processor on a B250 Intel chipset to a 6-core Ryzen processor on a B550 AMD chipset :D
I usually don't leave comments but for the most part this video guided me thru the whole process of upgrading my motherboard, cpu, and ram. I've never done anything as far as actually opening my PC and this video gave me a good understanding of how PCs work and where everything is on the PC.
Well not for me, never know how pc work and decide to buy one and bcoz idk sh1t i got sh1t. just using it 2 weeks and change almost all part by manual and internet + luck hehehe. bcoz sometimes not as smooth as the manual/internet said
The last time I built a computer, the motherboard was an eldrich horror for me to wrap my head around. I literally had no frame of reference on what to do with any of the cables. This video is gonna be right next to me when I build my next one. Very informative.
Thanks for this, I'm about to do my first upgrade to a prebuilt system and fear is high. This level of detail in what to plan for is super helpful! Most PC build videos gloss over the wiring.
I'm replacing my computers Motherboard and CPU so I've made notes to follow for myself. Thought I would post, in case somebody finds it useful. It's summarised, so make sure to still watch the video to get more of a visual understanding of the notes. To keep in mind: 1. Make sure no static electricity. Work on an area that is not carpeted, do not walk around with socks on round the house during installation. Ground yourself by touching the metal on the inside of the PC case every so often. Recommended: Anti-static Bracelet Not mentioned in the video: 1. Back up your hard drives, just as a precautionary method. You may not have to re-install windows if you have windows 10 - it may be as simple as just replacing the mobo it may not be (I did not have to re-install windows, but I backed up my data just incase) 2. Note down your windows activation code - connect it to a Microsoft account so you are easily able to reactivate windows. Your Windows activation is connected to your Motherboard/Microsoft account (if it is not connected to a MS account, you may have to contact Microsoft to issue you a new activation code and deactivate the old, as, if the motherboard we're taking out is much older than your new one, Windows will not recognise the mobo and treat it as a new system. If you are upgrading to a motherboard that is of similar brand/etc to previous, you may be okay. Somebody said that if you have your original windows activation code, you may not need an MS account. I would personally just connect it to a MS account. (My PC opened up to the BIOS, I checked everything looked good, then it signed me in as normal. I did connect my windows to a microsoft acc just incase) 3. You may or may not have to uninstall old drivers from the previous mobo when your new one is installed. Boot into safe mode, chuck CD in that comes with new mobo and install new drivers (I did not have to do this step) STEPS: 1. Unplug and kill the power to PC completely, turn switch at back of computer to OFF to discharge electricity. Hit power button at top a few times to make sure any lingering power has been discharged 2. Open case, back and front 3. Take out GPU - unplug power cables, remove screws at rear. Press down on tab at PCI and release GPU 4. Remove RAM, note what place they are in for new mobo 5. Remove CPU Cooler 6. Remove any case fans 7. Remove all cords from motherboard 8. Unscrew motherboard NEW MOTHERBOARD Installation: 1. Place motherboard on soft surface, i.e. manufacturers box 2. Install RAM 3. Install CPU - remove socket cover (put this on old board for protection), push spring cover and release cpu holder. Gently place CPU in socket, align. NO pressure. LIGHT shake to ensure it’s seated. Apply thermal paste and secure cpu with arm 4. Put IO shield on PC (can take some force) 5. Align motherboard with IO shield, screw top screw rest should fall in place. SMALL forward pressure to hold mobo against IO shield for first screws. Screws don’t have to be super tight. 6. Install CPU cooler 7. Install CPU Radiator (back fan) 8. Connect all cords in motherboard, everything should be named. - Hard Drives into sata ports - 24 PIN connector, usually found on right side of ram - USB ports - HD Audio (commonly found on bottom left hand side. taking note of the missing pin on the mobo and the connector, will help you find it easily) - Commonly Dreaded Power on, Reset button and HDD LED Cable. If you have a decent motherboard it will be labelled, they must be placed in negative and positive correct positions - MAKE SURE ALL CPU FANS AND CASE FANS ARE CONNECTED TO POWER, whether that be alternate power, or through the motherboard 9. Install GPU 10. Power up
@@spookz1761 yes, because it's the bulkiest component it makes it difficult to access the parts we need to connect cords into on the motherboard. Just followed my own notes today, everything is running perfectly. Goodluck!
i followed these steps, and my computer wont boot up lol. at no fault of yours! but i have everything plugged in and the front panel connectors are on, Power coming to the motherboard as the LEDs come on, but when i press the power button nothing comes on
@@jackhouston2497 also, make sure you've put the power reset/led hdd cables in properly! If they're not, that is another reason why it wouldn't boot. Especially that your motherboard is showing power.

This video makes me feel a lot more comfortable about installing a new Mo-bo in my rig. It's the oldest component and you made it, and explained in, easy
I was legit watching this video preparing for switching my motherboard tommorow, after thinking my current one got bricked during a graphics card install since no fans would spin (case fans, gpu, cpu), and I for fun tried the full drain power thing, and then boom, computer came back to life after thinking it dead for a week!
This video really helped me out--thanks! Successfully replaced my PSU, Motherboard and CPU with this playing...took awhile (and a few tries, thanks to, uhm, installer error), but everything's working great!
This helped me identify the problem with my pc at home! Had a friend install my motherboard and put the individual bottom connectors for led power and switch power in the wrong ports! My little raccon-like fingers fixed it tho!
Great guide. 1 thing to note, with windows 10 your product key is bound to the mobo/MS account. So if you dont have your MS account linked to your OS. Do so before swapping or your product key will not re activate. Or have your original key handy if you still have it. I usually stick them on the inside of the case for my customers but most people through them away after they activate it. .>.
How do I do this? I upgraded to windows 10 for free, so I have no idea how to do any of this stuff. My first PC was built by someone else, and they gave me a copy of windows. I got the free update though and it's a legit copy (as I've checked) I have no idea how to do this stuff you mentioned though.
I just bought a new motherboard and cpu, and I opted to have it taken in and done by someone else to swap all the components. As I was going to my car to get something, I knocked my computer down on it’s side. I returned it to my monitor and plugged it back in, booted up fine, played some videos on UA-cam, loaded up a video game, opened up a couple apps...all looks fine. Just waiting for my computer to have all the new parts installed into it. I played the game Prey for a few minutes and just ran around in-game, system didn’t crash. That was my other worry that my power supply would be broken, which has happened to me before and it was since replaced. I’m surprised I didn’t immediately ruin my pc, of course everything SEEMS fine. Watched this to sort of learn more, maybe alleviate worry. Anyways, great video!
I just wanted to say how helpful this video is! I just broke a capacitor on my sisters MOBO while trying to switch her graphics card and this will save me so much time!!
TBH though it's not part of the hardware installation. Their should be some videos strictly on best settings regarding hardware. Tip, if you're transferring a HDD to a new system, make sure your BIOS/UEFI is allowing legacy input or it wont boot. (I know on asus MOBO you need to disable CMS and boom you're in)
Very useful and helpful video for all beginners! If I may, I would like to add a few tips. If you're swapping MB, take some pictures and a short video of the wiring, that's where most errors come from. In winter, because of the many layers of clothing, more static electricity accumulates, keep that in mind! All the best guys !
After watching this tutorial I feel quite confident I can replace the motherboard, I like your no BS approach just clear instructions and advice, Thank You
I legitimately went through the whole process then got to the final stages and found out the motherboard port locations were to far for some of the cables to reach. Not just that they were pulled through making them short, no they were literally just fundamentally to short. I literally sat there in silence for like 20 minutes realizing I just had to reverse everything.
Man we should get free dental care! Wisdom teeth are expensive. I got all mine taking out and it was pretty rough, hopefully you get a good dentist. They gave me volume the first time and I didn't care what happened lol. The 2nd time was a little rough because I did not have the Volume and they just put me to sleep so I was a little nervous. Once you fall alseep you are good tho.
Im In the same situation as you, I bought a ryzen 7 radeon rx590 prebuilt from cyberpower and have the same issues as you. I'm relieved that someone is having the same issues as me 👌
The problem with these PC upgrading videos is it doenst include what you need to do step by step on the software side like backups, windows image files, OBS, ect. Would love if you could include the technically most difficult and least understood part.
Yes THIS- this is exactly why I haven’t upgraded all my parts yet, I got them all in the mail a week ago but I haven’t been able to find a tutorial that makes me feel comfortable enough to upgrade everything myself..
@@kaynugg you’ve probably sorted it out by now but if anyone is struggling with the software and what to do before and after installing , i really recommend this video ua-cam.com/video/iNw1vGyCPZs/v-deo.html which tells you how to link you ms account to your os so you dont have to buy a new os etc..
I have previously moved a build over from an older case. I've changed PS's and GPU's (also RAM) I now have a new MOBO, new CPU and cooler and RAM. This is my first time installing a MOBO and a CPU, and I also have a corsair capellix cooler. I'm a little out of my depth as this is all new to me. I'm hoping I donj't have many issues. I mean I've done PC building stuff before, it's just that I have a bunch of firsts in one go to do. I've been putting it off all day, but I really want to get this done.
I've never installed a motherboard before. Should I try this myself? Or should I just pay $80 to have it installed? Its a motherboard, a Processor and RAM. I don't want to mess anything up by not doing something right.
I was about to take my pc to best buy and let them install it but after seeing this i saved myself from going to best buy.I Watch the video and did it myself thank you
You’re gonna be just fine dude, don’t stress out about and take your time. I’m in the same boat as you but we all got this. Just rewatch the video a thousand times while you do it and it’ll be easy peasy.
thanks for the video, do you have to install windows again, or purchase the license again? Is the license of Windows is bound to the CPU and motherboard? thank you
Thanks for the guide, one thing though is that when you install the radiator fans, make sure they are intake because you want cold air going through them, not hot air.
wanted to upgrade my hp 8100 sff , got a new motherboard and ram (both DDR4) and was wondering do i need to get more equipment as well (i.e. cooler, graphics card or cpu)? Or can i still use the i5-660 and still have it work fine? trying to play my steam games but it's not up to par or doesnt even load into the title screen
8:18 I’m planning on upgrading to this mobo, but my old one didn’t have those connectors so I had to individually plug each of those in after installing the gpu.. it was tough
Amazing video here. Very clear and concise. However, you do not normally have to manually remove that plastic CPU socket cover. It will pop off by itself while installing your CPU.
Haven’t done it yet, my motherboard does not support my cpu but on like the website or something it did say it does so I wasn’t sure and spent a lot of time seeing if it actually was, but then the end part like you said the indicator lights helped me, it was my cpu so it is a relief that I actually know what is wrong, ty :)
@7:09 what is push-pull configuration? I have two fans on my CPU. Does that mean the fan on the right of the CPU blows left (towards the rear of the tower) and the fan on the left blows right (towards the front)? And do you need to use new thermo compound just for a mobo swap of the same part number?
Great video this helped so much just got my new asus rog strix mother board and have been looking to install it but wanted to make sure I didn’t mess anything up
I have a question I have a gig78lmt usb3 r2 and a amd fx 6300 I don’t really know where every thing is so because every thing in my mother board is different and where it is plugged in so if you don’t mind can you help me

Hi, i just have changed my motherboard, ram and cpu but my pc dont want to start on windows... only in the bios. The pc recognize my hard drive but he dosn’t want to start with windows. Any advice please ?
About to do a motherboard swap, this was a HUGE Help. If i edit this comment that means it went well. Took time to figure out drivers and updates but it went well. Second edit: just helped a buddy install new board in more cramped pc case, and it went even better (go figure)
Thx just installed a msi motherboard thought I broke it lol waste thousands I guesss but I am very thankful ur vid popped up and got me through it gg ur the best
Helpful as fuck. My old CPU gave out so I opted to upgrade my whole board... I didn't exactly like the sound of leaving my computer somewhere for 24 hours when the mobo can be replaced in less than that amount of time

Don't know if you respond but don't you have to reinstall Windows or something after
What about windows? Did u have to re buy windows? How does that whole thing work?
This was such a huge help. Made replacing a motherboard go from stress-inducing to easy as hell to do.

I'm hoping I donj't have many issues. I mean I've done PC building stuff before, it's just that I have a bunch of firsts in one go to do. I've been putting it off all day, but I really want to get this done.
the real question, after i install all of my hardisk, how about my data ? all they are gone ?
if your hard drive has data on it, no you will have the same data on it
Also a tip. Work with some lighting when showing everything. This helps very much.
I've never installed a motherboard before. Should I try this myself? Or should I just pay $80 to have it installed? Its a motherboard, a Processor and RAM. I don't want to mess anything up by not doing something right.
Brandon Blackfyre me too bro i have the same problem
Do it yourself, the best way to learn is by doing it, I was scared as well but once I did it one time I had no more fears.
Never ever fucking do that plz dont
October Is Cracked plz don’t do it they might even ruin it just build it bro try your brst
I was about to take my pc to best buy and let them install it but after seeing this i saved myself from going to best buy.I Watch the video and did it myself thank you
I was switching out my mother board last night i haven’t plugged in my computer yet im scared i did something wrong🤞
I mean you play fortnite so you are not very smart
@@Jan-vp9qt Lol
Super helpful video. I never built a pc before so I’m practicing with my friends old parts before I build my own.
Question I have an m.2 ssd with the os on it can I still change my mother board without problems?
Thanks for making all your videos
Can u do a video on the best gaming headset?
probably gonna be doing this in about a month, i am terrified of messing up. wish me luck
You’re gonna be just fine dude, don’t stress out about and take your time. I’m in the same boat as you but we all got this. Just rewatch the video a thousand times while you do it and it’ll be easy peasy.
@@ninety2237 thanks man. recently got in contact with a friend who offered to help me out, so confidence is already going up
thanks for the video, do you have to install windows again, or purchase the license again? Is the license of Windows is bound to the CPU and motherboard? thank you
Did you figure out how?
Thanks for the guide, one thing though is that when you install the radiator fans, make sure they are intake because you want cold air going through them, not hot air.
wanted to upgrade my hp 8100 sff , got a new motherboard and ram (both DDR4) and was wondering do i need to get more equipment as well (i.e. cooler, graphics card or cpu)? Or can i still use the i5-660 and still have it work fine? trying to play my steam games but it's not up to par or doesnt even load into the title screen
I also really like your videos so I liked and subscribed
8:18 I’m planning on upgrading to this mobo, but my old one didn’t have those connectors so I had to individually plug each of those in after installing the gpu.. it was tough
I have always just rested part of my arm on the case while working on it for static control.
I just want to see how to extract the actual CPU and you skip over that bit.
omg same. I thought at first you had to unscrew something, but all you had to do it push down on that lever.
Amazing video here. Very clear and concise. However, you do not normally have to manually remove that plastic CPU socket cover. It will pop off by itself while installing your CPU.
Doesn't say anything about drivers or other software. Not helpful.
Thats not what its about???
@@sowirmango5572 doesn't include a tax return explanation -10/10
Its not about that mate
Just the video I was looking for. Thanks!
5:21 I think he put in backwards lol
Video is god tier. Thanks man.
6:32 nice ;)
Didn't watch till end yet but for giving timestamps to skip is enough to like
That looks like my dayum screwdriver! Lol
Haven’t done it yet, my motherboard does not support my cpu but on like the website or something it did say it does so I wasn’t sure and spent a lot of time seeing if it actually was, but then the end part like you said the indicator lights helped me, it was my cpu so it is a relief that I actually know what is wrong, ty :)
The most pain in the ass part would be taking everything out
I know right! I literally got a prebuilt idk how to do any of this but I’m ordering a i7 I have a i5 currently. So I need to get the motherboard out
Tyler I’m getting my new ryzen 5 3600 and a new motherboard soon gonna be a lot better than now
T-10M same I realized I couldn’t get a i7 cause it’s not compatible so yea I’m getting the ryzen 7 3600
Upgrading and I have more anxiety than when I built it 7 years ago!
@7:09 what is push-pull configuration? I have two fans on my CPU. Does that mean the fan on the right of the CPU blows left (towards the rear of the tower) and the fan on the left blows right (towards the front)? And do you need to use new thermo compound just for a mobo swap of the same part number?
Awesome video! Just bought a new mobo, and this helped so much!
Great video this helped so much just got my new asus rog strix mother board and have been looking to install it but wanted to make sure I didn’t mess anything up
Thanks Alot for this Vid dude very helpful!

Im stuck at 11:05 , what do u do after that? How can i acces google? My pc is like that the whole time idk what to do help
Noti gang 😏 I want a scuff so bad 😭 also love your vids
I have a question I have a gig78lmt usb3 r2 and a amd fx 6300 I don’t really know where every thing is so because every thing in my mother board is different and where it is plugged in so if you don’t mind can you help me
All this is sooo daunting lol great vid just gotta wrap me head around it
Really nice step by step for beginners like me ;) Thanks so much for a great help!!! You ROCK!!! :)
Tried to a MtB swap tonight. Had a mental breakdown because I got no power. Put the old stuff back in. Will update when I try again…
im doing this next week! god damn thanks for the videos.
How did it go?
This really helped me. Thank you for being awesome. :D
Small tip, if you have a cpu with pins, do not keep those pins on tables when you are cleaning the thermal paste
I GOT A PROBLEM I followed all the steps and the MOBO RGB Lights are on but my pc isn’t powering on any help?
A nice run through
Re the power on off hd / led cables that everyone dreads and cannot read in the manual
I had never seen that little plug that comes on "nice motherboards".
I will try to get one maybe on Amazon
Hi, i just have changed my motherboard, ram and cpu but my pc dont want to start on windows... only in the bios. The pc recognize my hard drive but he dosn’t want to start with windows. Any advice please ?
Might have to reinstall windows
Awesome vid thanks for explaining static charge
4mins 05sec that dead skin dropping between your ram sticks got me haha - other than that really great vid :)
About to do a motherboard swap, this was a HUGE Help. If i edit this comment that means it went well.
Took time to figure out drivers and updates but it went well.
Second edit: just helped a buddy install new board in more cramped pc case, and it went even better (go figure)
Rip
so it didnt go well?
Thx just installed a msi motherboard thought I broke it lol waste thousands I guesss but I am very thankful ur vid popped up and got me through it gg ur the best
Thank you so much such good help !
Helpful as fuck. My old CPU gave out so I opted to upgrade my whole board... I didn't exactly like the sound of leaving my computer somewhere for 24 hours when the mobo can be replaced in less than that amount of time
