  • Today I'm going to show you how to test your new motherboard and CPU. Its always a good idea to test your new system outside of the case before you install it. So we are going to do just that.

    It is great that you showed the problem with the monitor being in the wrong (digital) mode as the reason for the BIOS screen not being displayed. I notice that you sometimes show mistakes on other videos, as well, and I am glad that you do not cut them out of the video. This is a great learning tool as everyone makes mistakes at some time and learning from these mistakes leads to greater understanding and enhanced troubleshooting skills.

    Very nice video. Thank you. Allow me to provide 2 tips :
    1. I don't recommend to use the thick styrofoam as a testbed since it can create static electricity which is not good for the memory and motherboard. It is better to use the cardbox of the motherboard itself. It will also allow you to easily insert video card if needed when you position the board at the edge of the cardbox.
    2. When you insert the cpu to it's socket, Push it gently from above with your finger WHILE closing the lever (Especially with AM4 sockets. With LGA socket it doesn't matter). This way it will sit better in it's socket.

      1.) The pad I use is non-conductive. I believe I mentioned that in the video.
      2.) If you push down on the CPU make sure to clean the CPU because the oil in your fingers can effect thermal compound efficiency. You shouldn't have to use any force to insert the CPU into the socket unless you have bent pins. It should go down with gravity.

      @@CyberCPU One time I broke a $300 motherboard because a cable wasn't long enough and another time something I did to my bro's PC made it catch fire (i was doing stuff with the molex cables and put a black wire in a white plastic plug where there wasn't one before) I learnt from my mistakes though and the last PC I built is still working fine many years later. :3

    If you connect a small speaker to the speaker jumper on the motherboard, you'll here the beep. Some motherboards have a built in speaker right on the motherboard. Also the number of POST code beeps will tell you what's wrong.

    Also a motherboard new out of the box is not the only time it posts slowly. If you ever made changes in the BIOS (UEFI) you might have noticed that it sometimes takes longer to post then. Or it may do that if you installed an update. It shouldn't always do that unless you just have horrible luck with computers. The thing is that it needs some time when it is doing that. If it sat for more than a few minutes and still didn't post that is when something may be wrong. I don't know if attempting to power a normally working computer off when it does that after a change or update is safe so I wouldn't do it unless I must. There is no telling what may happen otherwise! It may be that nothing happens and it just does the slow post again. Any hardware changes like new RAM or any cards changed may do it too. Just give it a chance and don't panic thinking you damaged it, you likely did not damage anything if you were careful with everything.

    Hey, it's funny but during my i7 9700k build I really did the same checking before going custom loop and you know what? PC posted ok but when I finished build it was bsod on windows startup. CPU was faulty... There was a happy ending because shop accepted it one month after buing and exchange it to i9 9900k without any extra money, but it cost me alot of stress.

    I noticed it didn't boot. Since it is a AMD chip, AMD doesn't have integrated graphics, UNLESS you are using a 'G' AMD chip. You should let people know, you're using a G chip. If they try this with a non-G chip, they'll have that video issue, but their system will keep rebooting.

      At the beginning, he mentioned not needing the ram if you have integrated graphic. Is this what you are talking about? Sorry I am new, and wanting to make sure I do not mess up on my first building, I am using an AMD 5 7600X CPU.
