I've always admired Linus' undying enthusiasm for computers. He's always so excited about each new gadget he gets. You think after almost a decade of doing this, he'd lose interest. But he hasn't. Respect.
Linus, I really respect you for covering the lower end of the market and showing great enthusiasm while doing it. Please keep covering the lower end of the computer market. It's a lot of fun for us who don't have much money or simply can't spend too much on our builds.
When it comes to finding the right bay for your HDD, you can always name them.. like for instance, call one Michael, so that you can put it in to the michael bay
+SMGJohn Not clones, I meant pretty much similar in terms of performance. And I meant that, AMD will be switching from Clustered multithreading to Simultaneous multithreading, which is the same technology Intel has been using, and AMD used to use. AMD has been adding cores and succeeding in adding performance for lower cores whereas Intel has been using faster, fewer and more expensive to integrate cores to add performance. Now with Zen, AMD will be having their CPUs as direct equivalents to Skylake, and even similar in power consumption. I compared the GeForce 600 series and HD 7000 series because power consumption numbers were similar, performance was similar and were the same generation. This is similar to what Zen might be like, at least compared to Intel's i5s.
Thanks you for this build. Very professional. I love how you mention the little stuff like routing the HDD cables properly etc. Very useful for someone that built a several systems already. Thanks LinusTechTips
+xWelhox I thought it was guy? www.google.co.uk/search?q=kaveri&oq=kaveri+&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i60j0l4.2059j0j7&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8#q=kaveri+in+finnish
I've been watching how to build PCs all week. Building my 1st PC tomorrow. I happen to catch different ways to put it together from all the different videos. Feeling good about it, hopefully all goes good.
I'm a computer technician, and lately I've been pointing a lot of people who are interested in building their own machines to your channel. Keep up the good work!
Same here. Except an MSI Mobo and no GPU. Still looking to upgrade. Would you recommend getting a new GPU and only use the CPU part of the 6800k or crossfiring the APU with the GIGABYTE 6670?
I find it curious how I didn't knew about Linus at the time, but I ended up building almost this system back in the day, just with an A10 6790k instead, and my mobo is A88X from Asus, I still have this and have no problems running current games, till last year, I first upgrade it with an Radeon HD7850, and now with a Rx570, I really love this set up, though im going to finally upgrade to Ryzen later this year
I was about to type my opinion on this video about AMD being a good brand for budget builds with a lot of pros, but then people would be assholes claiming the popular opinion is the best one and forgetting the little details and still think that they are always right and the chosen one in this world.
Linus, long time viewer. I am seriously blown away when I think of how far you and your team have come. I love the aesthetic of your recent videos. I love how you have carved a niche for your videos on youtube. And I especially love how you are constantly evolving, never stagnating.
the video editing, material design, and graphics effects in these videos were always the best of any series ive seen. i wish we could get more of it in some of the newer content
I find it quite funny to watch these videos with the amount of precautions before and during the build. I know I shouldn't have but I built my gaming rig three and a half years ago at around midnight on my bedroom floor and I've been running without a problem since.
Thank you for touching up on the AMD side of the fence and actually explaining the main reasons for building with them. Also, sick intro Linus. Whoever made that earned their paycheck.
I must say, this is the best edited video in this playlist, I know the important part here is the PC and the PC test (which is nice), but I also noticed the video editing.
In my opinion, the A6-A10 series of the Kaveri APU's are awesome for a small Mini-ITX HTPC with some light (or old) gaming applications. Like I have a tiny little Mini-ITX HTPC with a scant 300 watt PSU, an ASRock FM2A88X-ITX+ (FM2+ rated) motherboard, 8 GB of 2133 MHz DDR3 by Corsair, a LG Blu-Ray Drive, WD 4TB Caviar Black Drive. It's awesome because it can output video in 4k for my 4K TV. My previous build back in late 2011 which had only a 1TB drive, an Intel DH57JG 'Jet Geyser' motherboard, Intel Core i3-530, 4 GB of 1333 MHz DDR3, and an EVGA GT 440 graphics card could was really only good for TV. The GT 440 was snappy and could play some games like Battlefield 2142 and Battlefield 2, and Source games, but couldn't do anything else. But on the A10-7850k I can play Crysis 1 at nice settings and frame rate, Sniper Elite V2 on high settings, and I can finally play these games at 1080p, whereas every game on the GT 440, anything above 720p (or in rare cases 900p) would throttle the hell out of the framerate. Under powered dual core CPU+Low end single slot graphics card=meh.
over 14 high end Computers built ONLY THE FIRST build did i wear a anti static band. lol First one was a 2500k sandy build , last build i did was a i7 4820k ^ ^ ^ ^
What nonsense, you got to be a Muppet spreading false information, AMD is naming it's processors based on rivers around the world and kaveri is based on an INDIAN River(South INDIA) to be exact.
***** what's wrong with far cry 4? I haven't heard of anyone having any performance problems...aside from the fact that it wouldn't run on a dual core processor, but you shouldn't be paying $60 for a game and running it with a $50-75 cpu anyway.
Source 210 Elite--Yessssss. One of my favorite value cases next to the CM N200. Also, the close ups are a nice update for clearly showing what's going on during the build.

Holy shit that intro. 11/10.
Its over 9000!!!
When it comes to finding the right bay for your HDD, you can always name them.. like for instance, call one Michael, so that you can put it in to the michael bay
I see wut u did there m8
Nah don't do that, If you name it Michael it might explode!
Those zoom video transitions feel so good
soo good
sooo good
David Way TRAITOR
But im loyal
It gives me motion sickness
Good lord god your production quality is orgasmic. Hats off editors and effects people.
Finally showing AMD some love :)
Shame he didn't show the amazing FX 8350 and above some love, best bang for your buck CPU's, 8 core 4.0 GHz out of the box, for
Yep I run an FX-8350 at 4.8 Ghz Stable in my main rig.
Colbert TechRepair What do you use for cooling, and what motherboard do you use?
Sabertooth 990fx rev 2 with the H100I. Check out my rig on my channel ;)
A Competent Brit
You think it's more worth to save up for FX 8350 instead of just buying Athlon X4 II?
(750k-760K.)
Amazing production on this video.
Been building my own PCs for 18 years now, still enjoy watching videos like this, JayzTwoCents, and Paul's Hardware... I have no clue why. LOL
Dritman LOL nice one, but you could say it is the same PC I just keep upgrading.

Can't wait to see more AMD stuff from Linus once Zen comes to fruition.
go go AMD
+ibondurmom bring excavator cores on fm2+ pls amd fm2 + max cpu still are the a 10 7870k? amd needs to step up im still using a 7850k
+Joe 伍 And then AMD and Intel become clones, like what AMD and Nvidia were in the GeForce 600 and Radeon HD 7000 days.
+SMGJohn Not clones, I meant pretty much similar in terms of performance. And I meant that, AMD will be switching from Clustered multithreading to Simultaneous multithreading, which is the same technology Intel has been using, and AMD used to use.

This is similar to what Zen might be like, at least compared to Intel's i5s.
+SMGJohn Oh and don't call me kid, it's more offensive then you think. I'm not offending you now am I?
Dat editing/production. Wow. Great stuff guys.
Today, I successfully assembled my first self-built PC following this video. +1
its not that hard
Come on dude, its his first self built pc, let him be excited.
+Isaac Brinson i know but i ment to type its not that hard huh?
+Max Amakkara oh my bad lol I thought you were being an a-hole about it.
Would love to see an ultimate DIY watercooling build video. Including fittings, cutting tubes, water/dyes, etc.
I second this!
loving the zoom shots and the cool zoom effects!
Thanks you for this build. Very professional.
I love how you mention the little stuff like routing the HDD cables properly etc. Very useful for someone that built a several systems already.

I really liked the way you guys edited that non modular power supply clip. Props to who ever edited this video on the team.
Edzel.... my god nice video editing today!
That was probably the best intro i've ever seen
Even though I know all this I still love watching how tos and builds because I just love building pc's xD
same
+TechNick even though i know nothing about it, and don't even plan building a pc, I love watching their videos
I've been watching how to build PCs all week. Building my 1st PC tomorrow. I happen to catch different ways to put it together from all the different videos. Feeling good about it, hopefully all goes good.
you should if youre into anything involving gaming! you can build a pc that will shit all over your xb1 or ps4 for less than what those cost!
+Ichigo Uzumaki i bulit mine last week, these videos helped me a lot
Fucking sleek editing. Kudos to Dezel.
I'm a computer technician, and lately I've been pointing a lot of people who are interested in building their own machines to your channel. Keep up the good work!
Having same MoBo, but with 6800K and Corsair Vengeance 2133 8Gig memory. And an Sapphire Vapor-X 5850 (old, but good enough). ROCKING.
Same here. Except an MSI Mobo and no GPU. Still looking to upgrade. Would you recommend getting a new GPU and only use the CPU part of the 6800k or crossfiring the APU with the GIGABYTE 6670?
Jeffrey Merkel I have no idea, I can't have crossfire with my CPU and GPU. Look for yourself.
a beast edit. the video looks so great. Good job Linus.
I love how he had that laboratory overall in this vid
more like lavatory
in general back then. It was so much cooler
what
the videos he made... But their still good now.
you said laboratory coat and so i said lavatory like restroom lol
Nice job Edzel!
Thank you kindly. =D
Love your new editing! Great job Linus!
Thank Edzel ;)
Omfg that intro was epic.
340am here, i was soo tired...until that sweet beat picked me up again :)
Oh my god, I love that intro song! Whoever chooses the music, I love you.
Hehe,
I find it curious how I didn't knew about Linus at the time, but I ended up building almost this system back in the day, just with an A10 6790k instead, and my mobo is A88X from Asus, I still have this and have no problems running current games, till last year, I first upgrade it with an Radeon HD7850, and now with a Rx570, I really love this set up, though im going to finally upgrade to Ryzen later this year
7:03 You are so right. Almost everything is optimized for Intel and Nvidia...
Nice intro music
i accidentally built this PC 6 months ago, and just stumbled on this video now. My Components are almost exactly the same
Man, I hate it when I accidentally build PCs.
Yay, another one! Now, let's keep them coming!
DAT INTRO DOE
Who did the editing on this video? Who ever did it, did a really awesome job!
That intro was fantastic. Kudos to Edzel.
Who's watching after they hit 3,000,000 subs?
ayy
From this point? No one! Im stuck at 2.638.460 subs.
me
Such high quality content. A+
dat intro
I was about to type my opinion on this video about AMD being a good brand for budget builds with a lot of pros, but then people would be assholes claiming the popular opinion is the best one and forgetting the little details and still think that they are always right and the chosen one in this world.
The editing in this build guide was glorious..
15:03 best video edit yet :)
yah that was some fancy stuff
XD I'm glad nobody noticed a little slip up in my masking on the right side.
Intro: Tristam - Once Again
Really liking the fast zooms and quick focus on the products
The editing in this video makes my genitals happy
I forgot what the video was about for a while after being mesmerized by the editing :3
dat dubstep doe.
and dat zoom in-out transitions doe.
Linus, long time viewer. I am seriously blown away when I think of how far you and your team have come. I love the aesthetic of your recent videos. I love how you have carved a niche for your videos on youtube. And I especially love how you are constantly evolving, never stagnating.

They did a great job at the intro
computer builds are getting simpler by the minute
Omfg that intro was sooo gooood, had to replay it!
I find it quite funny to watch these videos with the amount of precautions before and during the build. I know I shouldn't have but I built my gaming rig three and a half years ago at around midnight on my bedroom floor and I've been running without a problem since.
Good video and music
I build my computes on a kitchen island too.
He's Linus, he does what he wants.
yup same here. such a great place for the old pc build
Thank you for touching up on the AMD side of the fence and actually explaining the main reasons for building with them.
Also, sick intro Linus. Whoever made that earned their paycheck.
i follow you step it's so so so expensive but work =D thanks
Great music choice
Haluatki olla kaverini Linus?
+xWood4000 Hahhhhhahahahah :DD

Kaveri means friend in finnish😃
Introducing amds new friend apu.lol sounds so... I don't know how to describe it
ULTIMATE AMD Friend HELP PC Computer actually cause Kaveri = Friend, Apu = Help :D
Finnish word "kaveri" is actually borrowed from Yiddish or Hebrew ("khaver").
Broke Kaveri tule APUun, tietokone piiputtaa...
Suomi mainittu!
dat intro tho
Those action zoom shots are awesome and overall great transitions and presentation. Keep it up guys.
Don't think the editing/transitions went unnoticed. Beautifully done.
dat intro tough 0_0
My grandpa has dedicated graphics. No joke
Your profile picture contradicts your statement.
I know but, honestly. He has a laptop with a GS 8600M 256MB
256MB.....
I upgraded his 2gb of ram to 4gb ddr2
.....
really nice editing on this one guys. the quality of these build vids keep getting better.
WHooa it's quite surreal to watch this when I got interested in pc's like 7 years later.....it's all soo different
Edzel is a great editor :)
He really is. He's also super modest. XD
Hahaha, when I read your name I was like: "Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait.... OOOOOH!" :D But seriously, GREAT job! Looks so professional!
over 14 high end Computers built ONLY THE FIRST build did i wear a anti static band. lol
First one was a 2500k sandy build , last build i did was a i7 4820k ^ ^ ^ ^
its a ivy bridge i7 for socket 2011
Great camera work guys !
Absolutely awesome editing, from the zoom transitions to the camera angles, loved it.
Holy shit Linus. How did you run that last benchmark on DX 12? I WANT DETAILS!!!
2 seconds in badass intro, noice! Also first... Had to : P
I went and watched the intro three times. I love it
I think this was the first video of Linus' that I watched. I was building a system with the same processor and board and was like "nice!"
Fuck dude that intro and everything just blew me away top notch man.
D'awwwwww. =D I wasn't sure how that intro would go over 'cause I just went way far away from the original style. Just wanted to do more 'me'.
That introduction tho
The last time linus payed attention to every screw for a system build
SO MUCH STUFF THAT NEVER TOOK OFF
Kaveri=friend in Finnish.
SUOMI PERKELE
What nonsense, you got to be a Muppet spreading false information, AMD is naming it's processors based on rivers around the world and kaveri is based on an INDIAN River(South INDIA) to be exact.
is piledriver a river? i thought they just named them off what sounded cool at the time.
no pile driver is not a river,
Kaveri is a legit Finnish word, troll.....
Dem zoom shots
Yep, it makes me really uncomfortable, makes my head dizzy. That really has to stop in future videos :D
Kukielka No way man, they're amazing
Screw everything, the intro song and animation are incredible !!!!!!
Dude I love the song in the beginning. Tristam is an awesome DJ
Linus, do you guys coordinate videos with Newegg? They just a Kaveri build too.
Cool intro btw :)
Awesome man, i have build hundread of systems and still had fun watching this video.
Hey Linus, I loved the music and the new editing transitions. Very cool build guide!
now i can play my watch dogs ultra settings
Nope. Watch Dogs runs like shit with AMD
philip gottfried watch dog runs like shit with anything lol
Mustafa Filiz annnnd Watch Dogs is shit
Kevin Cassidy The optimization, not the game
***** what's wrong with far cry 4? I haven't heard of anyone having any performance problems...aside from the fact that it wouldn't run on a dual core processor, but you shouldn't be paying $60 for a game and running it with a $50-75 cpu anyway.
That thermal paste looks like someone jizzed on the cpu.
somebody had to say it
