am i the only one experiencing nvidia control panel not coming with the driver and having to download it from the windows app store these days?
Crap. We meant to mention this. If you encounter this you’ll need to download it from the Microsoft store. I can’t remember why Microsoft started requiring this but it’s becoming more common with version 19XX and newer
@@Jayztwocents Just finished my first build so the timing of this video was perfect. Thanks!
I just have AMD so it never works
I used dch driver without no issues since I fixed the nvidia driver crashing since the launch of dch driver I upgrade it as usual over the older driver. I dont use ddu which wipes out the tdr registry every single time I update. And the trouble using the ddu is it wipes out the nvidia control panel settings for every application so you end up tweaking it again which is a pain in my opinion
I see it after almost every install now, not sure what trigger it, but downloading from the microsoft store fixes it.
I am a 75 year old male with limited intelligence and eyesight but today I put together my first desktop pc--Thank You for your videos and instructions--Cliff

Learning how to build my first computer around 16/17, A LOT of what was in this video are things I have, to this day twelve years later, never done.
Thank you so much for going over all of this. I’m not the newest kid on the block to building a computer, and now I’m not the most ignorant.
Great video!!
I'm more than a year late adding this comment, but thank you for this video. I built my first PC from scratch in November 2021, and this video was my 100% step by step after the physical PC was put together and plugged in. I've had so much fun improving and tinkering with the build since, but it wouldn't have been possible without your walkthrough on the things I wouldn't have known I needed to do before thinking I was "done" with the original build!
What to do after building :
>Realize you don't have time to play games
>Download a clock screensaver
>Let pc slowly turn into a 2000$ RGB clock
I feel like this is going to be me lol.
You're right.. 😂😂😂🇺🇸😎
There is always time to play games. Like that 8 hours you waste lying in bed...
@@MrGrumblier or those 12 hours you spend at work... just sayin.

Just want to thankyou jay for your videos. In the space of a week I've gone from having very limited pc knowledge, to designing and building my 1st pc to progress my dive down the rabbit hole of sim racing. Going from assembling, installing windows, undervolting my 12900k to get temps down and stress testing the build. Was also good to share the 1st build with my 8 year old son and get him hands on with me. Cheers 🍻, I'm now an avid follower for jayztwocents.
This video was absolutely perfect Jay thank you. I finished my tower about an hour ago and because of this video I am now flying everything set up and working perfectly...much appreciated!!!!

Pro tip: after getting Windows up to date, run "disk cleanup" and delete the old Windows installation files freeing up 20 GB plus on your operating system drive. You're welcome.
thanks
Can I just find it if I type "disk cleanup" in the win search bar?
ItzStreamBot do i go to properties when i right click the disk on my computer?
Yes, right click on drive > properties > "disk Cleanup box (about 2/3rd of the way down on the right)

I’m the process of building my first machine in years! Your vids have been a god send! Especially the one on what we don’t need! All the bogus RGB extras! I’m already buying some pretty valuable equipment and as you said RGB should be an afterthought. I was under the impression that more expensive was better…
This comment will likely get lost in the sea of others, but I am a veteran PC builder and upgrade every few years, I still learned a good deal from this video (my methods were slightly out of date). Everything here is super clear and concise and I even have a very similar build to you that I am about to piece together! Thanks for everything, liked and subscribed.

Another important NVIDIA Control Panel option is Threaded Optimization - a LOT of games run better with this OFF, though your milage may vary. If you're experiencing inexplicable stuttering in a resource-intensive game, consider disabling this.
Wait, really?
Honestly the rule of thumb I've adopted is only touching the NVIDIA Control Panel if I REALLY need the extra performance. If I'm already maxing my monitor HZ and it's stable, it doesn't NEED tweaking. But for something like CS2 I will tweak and find the best possible settings.

As a person who has never built a PC before (I'm planning to soon), this was a great tutorial. Very informative and easy to understand. Thanks JTC.
Pro tip: make sure you really look at what you need. I bought a single 500 gig ssd and quockly realized I was out of space and had to buy another. Also, ensure that you research to see when new parts are coming out to see if you should wait. A month or two after I built my PC with a 2070 the 2070 super came out for like 50 dollars less than I paid for mine. Lol
I'd suggest starting with a budget and look for a good build video and copy their part list and you're good to go. That's what I recently did and couldn't be happier with it.
OG Sniper is it a bad idea to try build a top of the range one first try?
@Vijai Ramharrack Yeah same here. This guide will be very useful.
OG Sniper I am probably going to build a pc within the next year and it my first time but if your building a high end pc for your first time I would suggest getting someone with experience about building PCs to help you
Such an amazing video. I've used this for reference on multiple computers now, as well as when I had to do a complete rewrite and install of windows one time. Thank you Jay and friends!
Unfortunately the biggest issue people have is not addressed. Windows installation now requires a connection, yet the drivers for connecting to internet are not installed. So the hard part is getting those installed manually through command prompt. There’s also the fact that you can’t pair bluetooth devices so you’ll need a wired keyboard/mouse. If you have those, then you can bypass the connection step , then when on desktop, manually install the drivers from a usb for internet from your MB support page.
Again this was the biggest pain for a new setup^ and sadly it was skipped over in this video as ms no longer allows you to just not be connected to internet and skip it. They want everyone using a ms account, not local.
@@carsonhunt4642 i mean it was relevant when this video was released...
@@carsonhunt4642 i just did everything step by step and everything works, you dont need a connection or any cmd commands.. idk where youre getting your info from
@@ItsLipNix
You made a new build with a clean install of windows? Newest win11 install requires internet unless use cmd to bypass it, maybe you used an older windows?
Motherboards don’t have drivers pre installed for int/wifi. The average user does not know how to install the internet drivers through cmd, they’d want access to the desktop first.
Anyways it’s simple once you know how to fix it it. The problem is most users aren’t expecting their wifi/eth to not work, and then told to install drivers before they can even access desktop. It’s a windows install problem that causes unnecessary issues.
Congrats if you somehow avoided it. Google shows it’s quite common regardless.
@@carsonhunt4642 Yes. This video is about windows 10 not 11 you know?
Thank you so much for this video. Used this with a majority of your videos with a few from other's to build my desktop.
one thing I really like about installing a fresh windows is that how clean your desktop looks at the start :)
Just disable your icons
Yeah, at the start...

"If you have a job, school, and studies and u need sleep there is basically no time to play games"
Me:"And I took that personally."
lol
@@Potatonater. League of Legends
I have job, school and studies yet I still give myself enough time to play games even I need to sleep
it's even worse when you're in a lot of projects and also work out
If you don't have a job (retired) or study (except for reading books) and you need sleep, there is basically still not enough time to play games. This is mostly because as you get older it takes you twice as long to do anything as it used to.
This has been a big help for me. I watched this before my desktop was delivered, I've had a bit of delay because I've spent all my cash then I needed to buy an OS and some apps. After a few months I was able to follow everything, thanks a bunch there's been some improvements. Bless you man!! 😊😇
good buy, it can be used many times/unlimited i believe, and would costs less than repeatedly pay someone every install
Man, this video is just pure GOLD! THANK YOU for this! Very insightful and useful! Kudos!
Tip: if you don't want to use the 3 security questions, don't enter a password during setup (you can leave the field blank). It will then skip the security questions. After setup, add a password through computer management or settings-users accounts

Completed my frist build this year and this video helped a lot.
another excellent video. I built my first computer back in the mid 90s. I knew nothing, and I mean nothing, about computers. A friend was kind enough to give me a Packard Bell computer. It was running Windows 3.1. I used that for about a year and really got into it. I started reading computer magazines. After a year or so I felt like I outgrew that machine so I ordered a case with the motherboard installed from Tiger Direct. Don't ask me how but I got the parts I needed, put them all together and lo and behold, it booted up! A friend lent me his Windows 95 disc and I was off and running. Never looked back. Been hooked ever since. Eventually ended up working in IT for 20 years. Have built many computers for myself over the years. Sure could have used youtube back then. I still watch channels like yours and I still learn things. Thanks for all that you do for the computing community.
You are the man Jay! Thank you so much for all the guidance you provide. You have helped me successfully build my first PC!
2 years later, I'm building my first pc and this was a ton of help. Mainly with the fresh windows install! Going all out for this one.
Wait how do you get the windows usb I can’t see how he did it do you need a usb before it
Pro Tip: Download all your drivers, tools, must haves to a USB drive before hand and use that to install everything after OS is installed.
I definitely second this. So much faster and allows you to install everything even if you don't have internet.
This is especially useful for motherboard drivers. It ensures anything and everything on that board will work. It's rare but sometimes a device might not work which could be your network card, and no internet means no fixing.
I do this since windows 98. Download all necessary stuff 1st in a separate media (back then cd,dvd now days usb) . Then unplug net , install Windows, then install all then disabled all privacy and spyware stuff. Then pug into net.
TheSkepticSkwerl learned that back on the am3 boards, confused as shit... finally looked in the box and saw the cd and went “oh” now having built more computers usbs are amazing
This is what I generally do as well.

Very helpful video! I'm waiting for parts to come in for my first build and I will be referencing back to this guide. Thank you!
Perfect timing. I'm building my 1st 100% new pc and my parts arrive tomorrow
theqrokz good luck, have fun
Hey good luck have fun also if your downloading the USB I have a few suggestions for that
Also if you want a windows 10pro key for 30 bucks use kingquin its legit
Never buy grey market keys, they may get locked out in the future.

When I decided to build a pc when I was about 16 I researched parts and build guides every day for a while until I felt proficient enough to buy the best parts in my price range and build it. I knew more about different parts and functions that I probably needed to, and when I was done building I turned it on and had 0 clue what to do next. I had no idea how to get windows on my computer and didn’t even know what a driver was. Just shows no matter how much you spend on a pc, optimizing and using the damn thing are most important.
Yep we just want to start gaming on something decent. I read up a bit on what I needed, got some advice from a friend and bought the best I could afford. Screwing it all together looks straightforward but setting up the OS is going to be the complicated part I think.
@@Jess-T same
@@Jess-T setup is ez, building isn't.
@@maconaccount2533 Depends how your brain works haha. Screwing it all together looks reasonable, if I mess up it will be on something that should be simple like installing Windows lol.
I am the 69th like
thanks Jay, got my first ever build and this video is as concise and to the point as it gets. appreciate your content, keep going strong!
Watching old JayzTwoCents videos for a refresher!!! Love his videos!
after watching this: *visible excitement*
checks wallet: *has two cents*
Edit (11/23/21): I earned enough money with the job that I love and I just returned here to finalize the settings to make my newly build pc running smoothly.
stop watching this and get a job.

Built first computer ever with my son. Your videos helped make it possible. Thank you!
Great video! I just finished my first new build in a while, and this was a great reminder. Thank you!
Be sure to buy a USB stick that´s "really over 8Gb" to install windows, most brands will market 8gb media but will only be about 7,8gb and Windows will not allow you to install from that stick.
? I've used 8GB USB drives without problems. The Windows installation files will not take up more than around 4-5GB so an 8GB USB drive will be fine.
@@JJFlores197 I´ve tried to use a transcend 8gb usb drive and after following all instructions in windows website to create an installation media, an insufficient memory error came up before anything was written into it. The 8gb drive was formatted and totally ready but it had actually a little less than 8gb, like 7,8gb. It´s not how much space the files will use, it´s the space that windows requires from the drive. Maybe there are other drives that are marketed as 8gb with actual 8gb space in them Idk
@@tomasgrimm3086 Drive manufacturers use base 10 to describe drive sizes. Windows uses base 2, so there will be discrepancies between the actual capacity of the drive and what Windows sees. You’ll always have less space on a drive than what it shows up as.
and also USB3 for less annoyance and slowness while transferring files. have multiple thumb drives, label them.
I didn’t realise how big my flash drive was until it came... I think 36gb is a bit too big

Congrats George! You got the joke! You’re so funny and smart!
@@GeeOhGe3 whats the joke
Incredibly helpful, thank you. Hadn't realized I could keep internet disconnected upon Windows install.
absolutely amazing video! super straight forward and helped me out after getting my nice new shiny pc all put together! thank you so much!
I know this is three years old, but this video is so needed. I watched so many videos about building a computer and the reason I have not done it is because I don’t know what in the world to do next. Now obviously I know how to download and install the program, but how do you set up the bios? I don’t even know what the bios is what about all the drivers everything you said in the first 30 seconds I can’t wait to watch this video. Thank you for doing it.
Linus got me through the hardware, you got me through the software. Thank you so much man.
Step 1: Spend 3.2k
Step: 2: Leave it on during a thunderstorm.
Step 3: Turn it into an overpriced toaster.
Step 4: Wait for repairmen to take longer because of Covid 19.
Oh nyooooo! Sorry but that is a funny tragic story. Thanks for sharing. 🤣
Or get a damn good surge protector......
😖
this is not a thing this is not a thing this is not a thing. please tell me this didn't actually happen.
@@pancakemixaj2254 Yup. Hasnt happened to me but my friend lost his $2400 rig earlier this year due to a transformer explosion during a thunderstorm. Hes still crying in his bed as we speak.
Thanks so much, Jay. Just built my (er-- mid-range) budget system: CPU: Ryzen 5 7600x, GPU: RX 6700xt, Mobo: Gigabyte B650, RAM: 32gb DDR5, Storage: 2TB NVME, Case: Antec DF 700, PSU: EVGA 750W.
I did every step of your video and got Win 11 installed. Thanks so much. Relatively painless. All stock, no overclocks. Enabled XMP, and set it to stock 6000 mhz --no memory training. So weird not having drive bays. Case runs quiet and cold. Definitely an upgrade from my old I5 3570k system. Love it.
2 years on and it's still a well-made How-To. One thing I will add, if you right-click the start button, you can go to Disk Manager (or a bunch of other system admin/management tools) from that menu.
I can't believe what the "BIOS" screen looks like these days! lol It's own GUI! Great videos. Thanks!
Its so much better than the plain blue bioses of the pentium 3 4 ish era
@@jimmyhopkins1 It sure looks to be! Can't wait to build one.
@NRG PsychoΨ Is that English?
I was surprised too, because I had old ASRock without any gui
@@jimmyhopkins1 and phenom
Why does this sound more complicated than building the pc
Right??
Because waiting game is hard.
It is
Building the pc is like putting Lego’s together. This is hard
Kirby Griffin Memes seriously, this confused the shit out of me lol
I had absolutely no idea how to begin when I finished building my tower. This was SO HELPFUL!! Thank you Jay!
3 years later this video still was so extremely helpful in current times :) thank you so so so much man!
What to do after the build: actually use it for gaming (reminding myself)
.
Fr I build one last year and never used it 💀 now I’m building an other one 😂
Your broke why are you building it then 😂
This comment is so ignorant you cannot build a pc and start gaming right after you have to install windows which takes longer then actually building it get educated fool if you wanna play games without them running at 100% you’re stupid

You'll get there
idowonderz one day but I feel like I’ll get too old when I have it
Thank you very much. I know this seems really easy but when you consider building a new system yourself, the software step was also holding me back because i didnt know what i exactly had to do. Now i feel ready for my first not prebuilt system :)
Just finished my first build and this video help me to get my new pc up and running. Thank you
This video saved my pc. Didn't realize windows installs old video drivers. Old drivers caused several BSODs when gaming. Clean install fixed everything. Lifesaver!
I’d love to see a PART 2 to this video on benchmarking your new system and how to save the data for comparison to changes later for a “stock” reference point.
Take picture lol.,...........
KipacWF
That’s a horrible method.... I’m not talking about a timespy score or something. I’m talking about like when you run the GTA bench mark and it gives you back a bunch of frame rates and frame times and about what data to keep And what’s less important for comparisons, etc.
This video was a life saver for me, I put together my first pc last night and this video helped me get it up and going
Thank you. I'm currently building a new machine--actually start building in 2-3 days--and this video will be a tremendous help.
My #1 Tip: Keep a bootable USB programmed and ready at all times in a drawer. Label it with tape so that no one confuses it.
Just label it as "sex tape", so no one will touch it.
This 100%. Saved me more than once!
The windows install usb he made in the video?
If i fuck up to the point I need to re install the os, downloading windows and making a bootable USB will be the least of my problems.
You got mess something up colossally to need a format these days.
@@V_0717 is it okay to install my drivers and the windows installation media on the same USB before booting up the PC for the first time?
