I'm a 68 year old grandma who just replaced my granddaughter's power supply using your video. It was perfect! Thank you!
Let’s gooo!!! Awesome work!!!
Thats really sweet of you ❤️
Really proud!!!!!
WOAH
@@RAVisuals I took photos on my iPhone of all the connections before I started, just in case, but I really didn't need to use them. Your video instructions were that good. I just paused the video as I completed the steps. My kids and grandkids were amazed. :)
I've been so intimidated to upgrade my power supply because I bought a prebuilt system from a pawn store and ZERO know-how. This is EXACTLY what I needed. Thank you so much my friend. I am indebted to you.
Glad I could help! That's awesome to see man! Very cool.
@@RAVisuals picked up an EVGA 600W for $45. 😁 Thank you again!
i’m
Quick tip-in some instances, capacitors will still store a whollop of power even after the machine has been unplugged and the PSU switched off. You can manage that by-after the PSU itself is off-depressing the power on button for a count of fifteen or twenty.
true story!!
Hello everyone looking to buy a 3080, yes, we're all sitting in the same boat.
Exactly!
Shit, you got me.
dammit
Yup going from a gtx 1060 6gb with a 500w psu to a nice new rtx 3070 with a hopefully 1000w psu
@@AS_Dair 850 will even do fine with a 3090
Dude this video was perfect, I had no idea what I was doing but you were slow, clear, and very helpful. Thank you so much.
You're welcome!
Shoot, this will be me this weekend. *gulp*
@@snakuvudu hope it well well
@@snakuvudu its me on friday lol
Thank you a MILLION TRILLION times for the good camera angles. Idk how many times I've seen people NOT showing which plugs they're removing during the process.
Thank you for this. Installed my power supply with no issues thanks to your easy to understand, step by step instructions.
You're better than most technicians my parents found, thank you!
Wow, thanks! Glad to hear this helped you!
Most so called technicians barely even know what they're doing tbh
Thank you for this tutorial, super clear and straight to the point. I've never upgraded my pc before, but I had no doubts after watching this. Thank you!
you're very welcome!
This was a gem of a video, cheers! Specially as you specified that the cables had to be pulled with strenght. It's a little detail, but I would have been too scared of breaking things if I didn't know that 😄
That's why I've been terrified to do this myself. One time I damaged my wife's old PC because I pulled too hard on the heat sink without realizing
there was another clip that had to be disconnected first. Because of that I literally have PTSD when it comes to replacing any hardware with PCs.
Thank you so much! I’ve never installed anything on my PC before and this video helped me out a lot!
Took me like an hour to do cause I accidentally unplugged some things, but I was able to find out what was unplugged quickly. Could probably do it again in 20 minutes or less.
This video is the best. Short and straight to the point without irrelevant information.
To anyone worrying about messing something up if it’s your first time, don’t worry and just do all the research you can!
This is a very simple task, and if I can do it, anyone can do it!
Gotta replace my prebuilt’s psu since my computer keeps restarting at random intervals whether I’m gaming or just browsing the internet. Just random. First it will flicker my rgb fans then restarts. Hopefully a new psu will fix this problem if not I gotta call the idiots from ibuypower
@@leonardocook4444 Hey I'm having the same problem right now, did you get a new psu yet?
@@khai5555 yea got an evga 600watt psu but I’m not sure it will fit in my case it’s huge compared to the small one I have
@@leonardocook4444 let me know if that fixes it, I'd like to fix mine as soon as possible too
@@khai5555 I changed my psu and it seems to have solved the issue completely.
Wow, thanks, this is the exact case I'm working with. I had changed my motherboard, and CPU, and GPU, and now I know I should update the power supply. I guess it hopefully won't be too bad after all. Thanks for sharing.
No problem at all! Glad you found it helpful!
@@RAVisuals I changed the PSU & it wasn't bad at all. Thx 👍
Just what I needed was thinking of replacing mine but scared might do it wrong 😱
Glad I could help!
RA Visuals Hello this vid really helped but do you know if I need a new power supply for a 1660 super I have a 500w?
Anvu FN it will be a ryzen 5 3600 1660 super and 16 gb 3000mhz ram
Anvu FN idk what it’s called it’s a gigabyte something but I’m on holiday I’m not near my pc
@@johnjohn-zb5vf The generic nVidia GTX 1660 Super card requires a 450W minimum power supply, with at least one 8pin PCI-express power cable
Thank you! I have to change my PSU from the one HP computers come with so I can get a better graphics card.
Hi, I just wanted to say this was an amazing tutorial. I've never worked on my pc to such a scale. Using this video I was able to do it without a hitch! You're amazing!
This is by far the best video explaining how you need to do it ive found specialy with the part for the gpu aswell (wich i replaced aswell) earned a new sub for sure
wow, this looks a lot easier than expected. I've been planing on upgrading from my 1050ti to a 1660ti but had been putting it off since because I thought it was too complicated to do. Thank you
Mr Gerald MANDEM you’re welcome! Good luck with your upgrade!
I've been wanting a 1660 super for a while now and have been putting it off for the same reason.
@@Gingenuity Well id say go for it, I did it last week and its successfully booted the first time. Also aslong as you watch the video while doing it, you'll be perfectly fine :)
@@user-wf2ku2zy9c I would be safe and get the 450w or even a 500w in case you want to change something later on. Best to be safe than sorry
@@user-wf2ku2zy9c bro what get a 1000W psu future proof that shi
Thank you for making such a great video. This helped me a lot, I got my PC running again in a day after having to buy a replacement power supply. You saved me with this video and I successfully installed it in one go.
Great to hear! Love seeing this stuff!
Just wanted to say thank you for the video! Was my first time changing a PSU and swapping a new graphics card. Your video made it easier for me.
My old PSU (550W bronze) gave out mere months after I got my pre-build and after much research, we got a 600W gold. This video saved me!! Thank you so much! My pc doesn't shut off anymore and all is good!
Awesome straight to the point loved it sir
Disconnecting cables is pretty hard and nervous since trying to get them off makes me feel like I will mess it up. It was pretty hard getting the old psu out. the cable managment was bad(it was built by the previous owner). Getting a new psu tomorrow.
Glad you gave it a try!
Same my guy, previous owner's cable management is terrible
very helpful. i was so afraid i was gonna screw smth up but the instructions were so clear and easy to follow
Planning to change my psu. I bought a pre-built and the psu they used was a generic psu. This tutorial is a great help.
Thank you brother, your video was straightforward and showed me exactly what to do. Keep it up 👍🏾
No worries! Glad I could help!
I'm upgrading to an RTX 3090 and it needs a 750 watt PSU. So upgrade time. Question though... why now just unplug the cords at the PSU and leave everything else connected? It seems like it'd be so much easier. Nice video - thanks.
Thanks for the help! your vid quality is great, and made it easy for me to upgrade my power supply, which I'd never done before. Really appreciate that you made a video at this level of explanation.
Glad I could help! Thank you for the kind words!
I did it!!! Thank you so much! The hardest part was unpluging the motherboard-psu cable, it was really thight but your tips helped a lot.
Class guide, got a new GPU and my power supply started to arc so this was very much needed
Glad it helped you!
love love love that you talked the viewer through, showed the action, explained why and what (And what it all looks like, to your best ability)
it's just super overall simple but thorough, thanks!!
You are so welcome! Thank you fir the kind words!
Thank you for this, I have some knowledge I bought a pre-built system and my power supply went bad the other day and thanks to this I was able to replace it and get my system back up and running thank you so much.
The psu in my 7 years old pc was finally giving up the ghost and I was terrified of having to carefully replace the cables. This guide was really helpful.
I’m over here having to unplug every single cable lmao
It’s definitely tedious haha
@@RAVisuals hey man. I have the same power supply as you in the video. First time building. The tutorial I’m watching has a lot more places to plug in wires than I do, and I’m having trouble figuring out which ones I have to plug in, and where.
This was just what i needed, thanks!
You're very welcome!
Changing mine very soon and this has been very helpful. Thank you ❤
so much better than the other videos, you’re so underrated please keep making vids like these
Wow, thank you!
mans back with another banger !🔥
Thank you!
I needed this! Getting a new psu soon after I just got my new GPU. I was playing mirrors edge catalyst and my pc just shut down.
Glad this helped you out!
Changing my CM Bronze 550W PSU to a Seasonic Gold 750W, afraid to do it initially but this video helps a lot. Thank you!
Don’t be afraid! It’s very simple. Just plug and play!
Thanks man. Just replaced my liquid cooler AND my power supply at the same time for the first time ever on my own, your vid helped a ton.
great video, seems like the hardest part is feeding all the cables through nicely
absolutely, cable management is always different in every case.
Just watched this video to switch out a 500w power supply for a 750w.(Yes, it was pre-built) Everything works perfectly! Just need a bigger tower for better cable management... So switching out a Power supply, the only connections you need to worry about is the:
CPU connector(To motherboard)
PCIe connectors(To graphics cards, etc.)
24-Pin PSU connector(To Motherboard)
All hard drives need a SATA connector to be powered from the PSU.
That's it? That's easy. The only annoying/iffy bit is cable management. But other than that, easy peezy!
Thanks for the video man. Really helped me lower my anxiety over doing it, haha.
Glad it helped! Have an awesome day!
I got the same issue with one of my pcs, Prebuilt with a 1660s gpu + 500w psu, I was gonna get myself a 3060ti but realised i would have to buy a 750w just to be safe with the watts
@@RAVisuals750 is overkill for 3060 lol
alright super high quality production and straight up answered my question showing how to do thing in the title... Thx! subscribed
Thank you Jake! Welcome!
This video made me go from clueless and somewhat confident. Replaced my crap PSU with a better one thanks to your help. Thank you!
thank you for sharing, its first time i wil do this.. but always it wil be a first time for every one , once.. :)
Olav Moldestad exactly! Good luck!
Hey, is it recommended to use the new cables that come with the psu or is it okay to use the same cables that are there already.
Always use the ones that come with the PSU
Just bought new PSU and watched your video and got it from the first time. You are lifesaver
I sincerely appreciate these types of videos
3:35 24 pin connector
Just wanted to say thanks man without this video I don't think I would have had the balls to do it myself I was going to get a friend to do it for me but I watched this video on repeat while I did it and everything is working my thumb hurts from the 24 pin lol
RIP to your thumb but I'm glad you got it done!
This information is incredibly still relevant in 2021 for fully modular PSU's! Thanks homie 😁
Happy to help!
A perfect video, simple instructions, love it. Never thought I'd manage to do this on my own! Thanks!
No problem at all! I’m glad to help 🤘🏼
I am new to this. Do all the cables needed for the build come with the psu?
Yes they do! The only cable there ever might not be enough of is the PCI-E cable. Some lower wattages don't come with more than one
I needed to upgrade my power supply but was nervous because I thought it would be complicated but this just made me realize it's way easier than I thought, thanks!
You can do it!
@RA Visuals can you just use the cables the pc is already using or do you have to use the new ones from the power supply?
@@paperplanespaperhearts always use supplied cables. not all PSU are pinned the same. could literally fry all your pc hardware.
I'm about too do my psu rn with your video. Thanks man!! You the best
No worries man! I hope you get it taken care of 👍
Thank you for the useful video, if not already stated when swapping out hardware always take pictures/videos before, it makes the reinstallation process so much easier
Exactly! It helps a ton!
Can't stress enough on replacing all the psu cables if swapping out a modular psu. Many builders don't realize the wiring can vary between even the same manufacturer 's psu lines. This mistake often leads to frying components in system.
yep, just fried my NZXT X63 and fan controller, if not even more than that...
I felt like I was gutting my computer like a pumpkin, but i’m glad its over
haha hopefully the vid helped!
Just changed out my step sons power supply using your video and I looked like a hero. Thanks for the great video.
Thanks. Just bought a PSU for my main computer and swapped that ones psu to by office computer. This video helped a lot.
I simply took off the fan and left the psu open so air can flow, quietest pc ever
oh boy...does that thing heat up or does your case have amazing airflow?
@@RAVisuals it is barely warm, I use the corsair MLs and I have cleaned the bottom tray it is free space for the air from the front to enter through the psu during gaming, for light use it doesn’t really heat up.
This was a lot simpler than I expected, thanks a million for this tutorial! Ended up saving my PC by replacing the PSU with a new one after a power surge fried the old unit.
I love to see it! I'm glad I could help you out!
Did it damage the other components? I found an insane prebuilt pc deal today but it seems like the psu is very bad so i'll use this one till i can afford a better onr
@@-wokhead Nah, the other components were unaffected. Mine's a prebuilt, but it came with an EVGA power supply, which thankfully did its job in preventing other components from being damaged.
you should purchase a surge protector power strip, its saved my computer 8 times
@@LiquidHonor I already had one, it simply failed. The one I have now is from Belkin, my previous surge protector was GE.
Thanks man this helps alot I am looking forward to watch more tips from you.
Hey bro
Could you tell me which is better
EVGA supernova 750 GT
Or aorus AP 750 GM. Or Nzxt c750
Or deepcool DQ 750 ?
Who’s here after the Ampere announcement?
MandoOnRR haha I was waiting for this!!!
Me lmfao literally bought a new monitor and a new psu today. I’m new to Pc gaming so I’m still pretty confused as to what to do. I’ll be watching videos like this all week till I understand it.
Lil Durk Trust me, it’s amazing.
Me, saw I only had 600w, so upgrading to 800w. :(
mee lol
So I bought a prebuilt cause I figured I wasn’t going to be able to buy parts separately anytime soon with everything being out of stock but I want to swap out the PSU cause I heard that’s like the one flaw with the pc but I’m scared of doing it wrong even after watching this video :(
Same situation here. But I think it is best to just do so honestly, I know that it is a bit scary because of potentially screwing up the motherboard or anything else, but you’ll be fine. Just be sure to ground yourself every few seconds.
Great video. Thanks!
Thank you man. My gf's psu died and I was nervous about replacing it. Found your video and then did it.
you should try and do something like tech source. something like setup wars where people submit their setups and you review and give tips
Its in the works!!
RA Visuals nice im hyped
Oof, now im stuck at the UEFI Bios menu thingy on “EZ mode” not sure what to do from here
Red Lil Anime just turn off ur monitor then turn it on and wait for it to restart
Hey man fantastic video. Didn’t even know where to start and you guided me and I learned how to do replace my supply. You’ve got my like and subscription.
Welcome aboard! Thanks so much for the feedback. It means a lot!
This was the best step by step video i have ever seen. This helped me so much bc when i first tried to install my new psu my cooler smoked!!! Keep making videos.
Great to hear! Hopefully you got it installed just fine!
Is there something I'm missing? You didn't cover the molex connectors for any of the fans?
My fans didn’t take any miles connections. They are similar to sata connections in that you just have to plug them in using the correct orientation and you’ll be good!
Changing my psu, ive had the new one for 4 days now. Still scared to do it. Thinking of changing thermal paste as well..
Do it! its not hard at all!
Yeah i was so scared about changing cpu thermal paste but its honestly super easy! And i'm not tech savvy at all!
awesome vid... follow it and worked perfectly for me... thanks, you gave me the confidence to tackle this on my own. keep up the great work !
Great to hear! Glad you were able to get the job done
easy and straight forward, I'll be putting this to the test in a few days, wish me luck.
wish you luck man!
Thank you, just found out I'll need a new psu in order to get an rtx 3080 so this video is extremely helpful. Thank you so much!
You're very welcome!
Would a 500w power supply be enough for a gtx 1660 and a i5 9400f
yes it would!
Installing a new power supply is intimidating because of all the horror stories. This made me more confident to replace mine.
Thanks 👍👍
upgrading to 3060 by friday and I built my pc like 3 years ago but my friend basically built it for me ( had no idea what I was doing, mostly watched and helped here and there) I seriously forgot about power supply stuff and thought this would be horrible but this actually looks easy haha.
6:41
Bro😂
I gotta do this 8n a moment and im scared. Ill let you know if my pc blows up
please don't blow your PC up!!
Thanks for instructions. Did have some anxiety while connecting cables to PSU (what, where). As well as had additional 4-pin periferal power cable to connect.
My PC of 10 years finally kicked the bucket mid-game after some hints of its days being numbered hopefully I can resurrect my OG
Cries in 2080 ti
Laughs in 3080
I just bought the same graphics card you have so now I'm upgrading because I didnt have enough pins
You're buying a new power supply because your cable for your gpu doesnt have enough pins? If thats the case then you can just buy an adapter for 5 dollars. Unless the graphics card requires more power than the psu outputs, then theres no reason to upgrade.
God teir video I've never owned or worked on a pc before this vid made it super easy
Honestly I appreciate this just for the list of connections... everybody forgets something now and then.
no problem at all!
Another awesome video man!
I changed my icon, so you might not recognize me but tell me if you do.
I do! Noticed the name!
Cant we just unplug the cables from the psu leaving everything connected to the pc and plug it in to the new psu?
You need to make sure the old psu is disconnected and powered off first
@Yoshizawa Shun sure why not, you're just replacing the actual unit. The wiring should still be fine
Don't do that, it can sadly fry your pc parts.
@@sENzInHO I had to remove all the wiring from the old power supply anyway to make it work for the new one xd
Perfect video, worked first try, and answered all my questions (fan up or down etc).
Old psu started making "throbbing" fan noises and since a few days ago pc would not boot up at all unless i disconnected and reconnected the power cable. Bought a new 500W Aerocool Integrator (bronze) (£30), installed with the help of this video, and pc did not blow up!
It also seems to have solved a blue screen error (WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR) which i got every time i ran a modern, graphically intensive, game.
Thank you!
So glad you were able to solve those frustrating issues! Happy Gaming!
Extremely helpful, thank you
"let's get right into it" two minutes later I am still hearing waffle from a haircut. Get. To. The. Point.
Say it louder for the people in the back! 🙌🏼
Nothing wrong with giving a back story. Linus Tech Tips does this in basically every single video. Great format, easy to follow, professionally done, keep it up!!!
@@theogbullseye Even funnier that the guy who made this video has fans who miss the point. GG Sir Knight. I see your wifu noticed even. Did you get some haircut ?
Mike Emmons sound like a bitch, shut up.

Glad it helped! Yeah, those things can be really snug in there!
Thank you so much! Very helpful video
great video man. good stuff
I'm going to upgrade my graphics card and power supply soon,and this is the part that,quite frankly,was kind of scaring me.thank you for making this.i feel much better now.

Exact video I was looking for. Thanks man!
glad I could help!
Cracking video. Just what I was looking for. Thanks.
No problem 👍
