- See how to build a good looking gaming computer. I also show how well this PC performs when playing Cyberpunk 2077 (FPS shown). Parts used are: RTX 3070 graphics card, Intel 10700K CPU, Asus Prime Z490-A motherboard, Corsair RGB RAM (16GB), WD 1TB NVMe SSD, WD 4TB HDD, Corsair iCUE 465X case (white version), Corsair 750 watt power supply, Arctic Freezer 34 eSports CPU cooler, and 3 RGB fans by Corsair.
btw don't forget to use the riser for the m.2 drive I think you installed it wrong.
Yes, you're correct. I didn't install the stand-off for the M.2 drive. I realised afterwards, then put in a stand-off, but didn't film that part. I don't know how I missed that. My appologies for missing it out. Will pin your comment.
No worries Dave, we all have to deal with vague and often inadequate instructions. they should just put the bloody standoffs in by default.
@@EasyPcRepairs we all still love you lol
@@EasyPcRepairs does this affect the pc performance?
This is Bob Ross’ IT guy.
Yes!
Happy little Intel Core i7 10700K CPU

I literally saw this the second I was thinkthing the same exact sentence
i came here to say this, but know in my heart it's already been said
The unintentional ASMR is strong with this one
I relax, I learn, I enjoy. I love your content.
Glad you enjoy it!
Learning how to build a rig while being lulled to sleep? Yes, please.
One of the cleanest builds I’ve ever seen!
Keep doing what you’re doing man because you’re obviously very good at it, take care!
Thank you very much!
I have never built a computer, but listening to you explain this is very relaxing and calming. I have watched this video many times to unwind and find some peace in my day. Thank you for your work.
You're very welcome - glad this helps you relax.
I like to watch UA-cam before bed this is something I genuinely enjoy and your voice is so relaxing, not to sound weird but I went to sleep no problem
Glad you find them relaxing!
Me to, this is ASMR very relaxing
I really hope to see more PC builds from you. This was literally the Bob Ross of PC building.
its amazing how you made this tutorial still show every step while still keeping it at 15 minutes
This is a GORGEOUS build! Looks spectacular. Have fun!
Thank you! Will do!
I referred my dad to your previous PC build tutorial (ryzen build). With it, he assembled his machine from scratch on his own - and quite enjoyed it. Excellent no frills guides. Keep up the vids!
Thank you! Glad the computer build guide helped!
Just discovered this channel. Cant stop watching!
Here from Unintentional ASMR. Looks like a quality channel and I'm very into PC building and tech. Subbed 👌
Hi, thanks for subbing!
omg a new build video! Get in love this guy 😎 where have you been? I hope everything is well considering covid-19.
Everything is well thank you - back with more videos for you guys!
@@EasyPcRepairs Did you succumb to the ridiculous price for a 3070, or did you get a good deal?
You managed to get your mitts on a 3070...bravo sir, bravo.
what a soothing voice and with clear instructions. Thank you
Please make more videos because your voice is super soothing
Will do, more coming soon.
Found your video on an ASMR channel but I always like to go to the source to support the person who put in the work. Great looking PC. I'm currently building a PC and trying to decide between the Corsair 4000D and 5000D.
Thanks for your support! By the way, I've just started a new UA-cam channel as well called 'Easy Relaxing Videos' in case you're interested. Yes, Corsair cases, I've always liked them and I'm sure you'll be happy with the 4000D or 5000D. Good luck with your computer build!
most relaxing pc build ever
Never thought the words "just here" could be so comforting.
I'd love to see you do one of those PC build videos where you take a cheap old Dell or HP business desktop and turn it into a budget gaming rig. This can often be more cost effective than building it all from scratch, but it's also gratifying to see the transformation and give older hardware a second life.
I agree with you, building a gaming computer that way can be good when on a budget.
@@EasyPcRepairs Yes, it could make for a satisfying but also relaxing video. We love your work! You’re helping people, my friend.
this guy really helped me get over my PTSD regarding gaming pcs, because of people boasting and showing off their expensive rich luxurious life and shoving their gaming pcs in my face. this helped me look at gaming pcs from a new perspective and made everything more relaxing and therapeutic. evening though I will never be able to afford a gaming pc ever in my life.
Your M.2 drives needs the standoff installed. It needs to be held up so it sits flush with the heatsink. Right now, only the part nearest the actual insertion point is touching.
It looks bent even
We need you to start an asmr channel. You have a great voice, and the British accent just makes it perfect!
Thank you! Maybe one day.
This channel is so underrated. Thank you for putting out this great content
Thank you - glad you enjoy the videos.
Hey Dave!
I had a problem with my camera driver despite trying all the fixes it didn't get fixed but then...
I thought of restoring my system & when I came across your *System Restore* Video It helped me through
my tough times
Thank You!
That's great to hear - I'm glad it helped you sort out your camera driver!
so detailed and comforting . great job!
Thank you!
That looks amazing in White! Finally found someone that built a PC with a 30 series card with air cooler in this case. Exactly what I was looking for. Looks like it fits really well. I'm really considering building in this case with air cooler, 2 fans up top and back like yours with a Gigabyte 3080 card or might do a build with corsair 5000D Airflow but I love the look of this case. Was just worried about thermals and noise but looks like it's not an issue with your 3070 at all.
Thank you! Yes, I can tell you that the noise levels (when this computer is at idle) are extremely close to zero. Noise levels when gaming are very acceptable.
dude, you deserves more subs
So glad I found your video. It's really relaxing and very well explained, thank you. New subscriber here. Keep up the good work Dave!
Thank you! And thanks for subscribing too!
Very helpful video! Instructing step by step without talking any nonsense. I'm expecting more of your videos!
Thank you! Yes, you can expect plenty more videos.
I love this, but I wish there was a way to front load all the ads to the beginning of the video. I want you to be able to monetize and I do want to support you, but this is a video I usually watch/listen to in order to relax, so the ads are a harsh interruption. Not a criticism, just insight.
Ok, will consider your comment, thank you.
Brilliant vid. Professional, thorough, clear, and enjoyable. Very easy to work through the set up with this vid on hand. Thank you!
No problem. Good luck with your computer build!
I hope you always keep making content. I really enjoy it and I'm sure there are lots of people that would too once they discover you!
Thank you!
Flawless as usual
So relaxing to listen to!!!!
Clean build, nice!
Thanks!
A beautiful finished product. It looks so cool, It belongs on a spaceship. ✌😎👌
One of the best pc building videos.
Thank you!
I just found your channel and already binged a few videos then I subscribed! Ive been into PCs for a few years and recently built 2 high end rigs building them is so relaxing for me.
I agree. I find it an enjoyable process building a pc. By the way, thanks for subscribing.
Great videos Dave. Please keep them coming! Very informative and easy to listen to... Please don't change a thing. Perhaps show a laptop keyboard repair when you get a chance... 😊
Thank you! I'll keep the videos coming for sure!
My wallet:
"We've been over this a thousand times"
wow I learned a lot, please do more videos like this
Great video! Very thorough! Only thing I might mention for new builders is fan orientation: open face = intake. Side with the crossmember and wiring = exhaust. Usually front intake, rear/top exhaust works best, but some poor intake cases, like some of the InWins might need additional bottom intake.
Will this setup attach a lot of dust?
Well, you'll want to make sure there are easily accessible dust filters, or a fine enough mesh or grill to function as a dust filter. That Corsair case is very good, had awesome magnetic dust filters.
i just bought everything you listed after watching this. this is my pc now. i ordered black fans cause they were half as much tho. nice build and vid!
Thank you! I'm sure you'll enjoy your new computer.
@@EasyPcRepairs im so excited. this is my first build. been running on an Alienware from 2012 with an i3 for the last 9 years, definitely the upgrade I needed :)
Sounds like a very big upgrade. I'm not surprised that you're excited about it!
You just bought everything in this build? How'd you get a 3070? Also, buy one more fan than he did and replace the fan on the CPU Cooler with a matching RGB fan... his build looks off with that one non-matching, non-RGB fan smack in the middle.
@@wolfshanze5980 paid 1500 for the 3070. already ordered the white cooler. i didn't know there was an rgb cooler, that'd would've been sweet too. I'm just waiting on the cpu, cooler, and 3700 to arrive now. the first 3070 I bought turned out to be a scam for $750 which I'm currently trying to get back from ebay but they are giving me the run around even after I filed a police report already like they asked. The seller sent me a piece of paper with a picture of the 3070 :( so I decided to just buy an overpriced one from a trusted seller rather than try to get a deal and get scammed again
Amazing Video ! Here's a new subscriber ! Keep up the excellent work Dave
Thank you! And thanks for subscribing too!
I love your channel thank you :)
Glad you enjoy it!
Wait am i supposed to be able to afford this
Hey there I'm loving your content ☺️
Would it be possible for you to post a spreadsheet or something which gives a price per part/total cost for the build?
Keep up the amazing work 😊
Thank you! The total price was about £2,000. Here's a breakdown of the parts and prices. CPU £347, 1TB SSD £139, PSU £120, fan splitter x 2 £14, Case £106, graphics card £768, motherboard £209, RAM £89, CPU cooler £30, RGB fans x 3 £86, 4TB HDD £119. The prices keep changing, but those are the prices that I paid at the time of purchase.
Outstanding video, great build! I guess when you know what you’re doing the blue words go away! Am new to M.2 drives - what is the riser? Something to use so the M.2 doesn’t bend?
Thank you! You're correct, the M.2 riser (also known as a stand-off) is used so that the M.2 drive will stay straight.
thank you for your videos! i already learned a lot from them =) (esp. the make your computer faster when gaming and also the tip to index the harddrivers for super quick searches were really helpful to me :3). Im thinking about building a pc too now, but i am on a budget. Could you make another one of the "Build a Gaming PC for £650" for me?
Hi, I'm glad you're finding my videos helpful (I always felt that the 'find anything on your PC' was a particularly useful video for everyone). I cannot do a video on a gaming pc for £650 right now. Good luck with your computer built though!
This is very intriguing. I am thinking of attempting this but wonder if you might have an updated version or new build in the pipeline. Thanks for all you do!
I don't have a computer build coming up very soon. Sorry about that.
ASMR for gamer and PC enthusiast 😀
I still think about that nvme to this day since you forgot that standoff nut.
Yes, it was a silly mistake that I made. I did correct it afterwards but didn't film it. I'm sometimes reminded of it too when I see the thumbnail for the video!
Hi, nice video! Which microphone are u using btw?
Thank you! The mic I'm using is the Zoom H1.
We must protect him at all costs
I think if it were me, I would build it with a black case and black parts.., but I do love the design!!!
That's what's great about building your own pc. You can design it however you like it.
love the video, awesome looking pc
Thank you!
Do you think that SSD heat shield is actually a heat sink? The springy SSD, the green tape material, and the aluminum plate transferring heat in the windy environment??? Or do they not get very warm?
I would say it's a heat shield as the heat cannot transfer very well the the SSD cover. If it is acting at all like a heatsink, it is likely to only be transferring a tiny amount of heat.
@@EasyPcRepairs thanks! I'm not very familiar with computer builds yet.
No problem.
How did you get a hand on a 3070?
Great asmr
Hey Dave! Long time no see! Hope you've been well. I can't watch this video right now, but are all these parts (especially the GPU) easily purchasable right now, or are prices still inflated?
I'm very well thank you! GPUs are still difficult to get hold of right now. Corsair RGB fans took a couple of weeks to arrive (had to preorder them). All the other parts were not preoreder items though and could be purchased straght away.

Did you know this video is also on a channel called unintentional asmr? Half way through I decided to come here instead because they linked it. It has 13k likes which doesn't seem very fair
Yes, I am aware of it (they asked permission previously). I wasn't aware that it had so many likes. That's a lot!
@@EasyPcRepairs well don't worry. I did a like so you're ok lol
Every like helps, thank you!
Hi Dave, just a simple question; first of all great video, second: how do you know which slots to insert the RAM into in order to run it in dual channel?
Thank you! It varies a little from one motherboard to the next. Most of the time, slots 2 and 4 are used for dual channel when using 2 memory sticks. But the only way to know for sure is to look it up in the motherboard manual.
@@EasyPcRepairs Cheers, thanks for the information
I have the exact same model of main board.
What a fantastic PC & video - how much did the parts cost and can I build one myself as a complete amateur?
Thank you! The parts cost £2,000. Yes, you can build it yourself as an amateur.
Very nice! I'll have one please 😃
Great video! I'd like to contact you if possible - Your website link doesn't seem to be working - is there any convenient way I could reach out to you? Thanks
You can talk to me here if you'd like.
@@EasyPcRepairs ok I'll try to keep it short:) I create Unintentional ASMR compilations as a hobby here: ua-cam.com/channels/I4J4Aog35UbQ_wq4KPW75Q.html - and I wanted to ask if I could use parts of this video and 1-2 others because I think your voice would be EXCELLENT for it. I don't make money from the channel and I would link your channel, of course. I'm confident that this would help your great channel grow a bit, too. If you don't want it (or have specific requirements), that's totally fine, too. Thanks!
Yes. If you give a link to my channel (in the description or video), I'd be more than happy for you to use my videos for your channel.
@@EasyPcRepairs awesome, thank you so much. I'll probably upload it by next week, and you can reach out to me if you have objections. Keep doing what you're doing, your channel is great!
Thank you very much!
Great video! Any chance you can list the cost of the parts in this build and/or a total build cost? I’d also be interested in your take on a PC build for a unit meant specifically for video editing.
The total price was about £2,000. Here's a breakdown of the parts and prices. CPU £347, 1TB SSD £139, PSU £120, fan splitter x 2 £14, Case £106, graphics card £768, motherboard £209, RAM £89, CPU cooler £30, RGB fans x 3 £86, 4TB HDD £119. The prices keep changing, but those are the prices that I paid at the time of purchase.
Love this video :)
Thank you!
That may just be my new build except with white liquid cooler for the cpu
I’m going to order these parts and build this PC like you did. Any flaws that you didn’t put in the video?
I really want to build this but I’m just not sure about the lighting node core and how to power it. Also the pre installed fans, do I have to plug them into the core and splitters?
The pre-installed fans are already plugged into the lighting node core. the other 3 fans that you will install yourself are then plugged into the other ports on the lighting node core. The lighting node core is then powered by plugging it into the power supply. Each fan also has to be powered by plugging them into a fan splitter, then the fan splitter plugs into the moteherboard. It may sound a little complicated, but it's more obvious when you see it all for yourself.
@@EasyPcRepairs thanks, that clears it up 🙏
At 6:00, do I have to plug in the second cable that comes off the cooler? Or do I just do what is shown and only put one in like you did.
5:23 what do you mean dont put the fan back on yet? then when is the right time to do it?
What's your overall price in USD for this build at the time of filming? Thanks!
I didn't check the price for the USA at the time of filming.
EasyPcRepairs do you have a vague recollection of an estimate?
EasyPcRepairs thanks for the reply, btw
I don't, but I can give you the parts list if you'd like to see them for yourself.
Good luck finding a 3070.
David, what do you use to spread the thermal paste so perfect and uniformly?
You can get a spreader designed for this job. Anything will do such as an old credit card. I personally sometimes use a lint-free cloth which enables me to spread it evenly.
I like you doc, you speak funny words
What is the general cost for something like this? Excellent video btw 👍🏻👍🏻
It cost me £2,000.
@@EasyPcRepairs thank you sir! That’s good to know.
the only people who downvote this are scalpers for letting a normal human getting a 3070
Great video! How much do you estimate this would cost to build in UK prices, currently? Thanks 🙂
It cost just over £2,000 when I purchased all the parts.
@@EasyPcRepairs Ok, thanks Dave 😁
No problem!
Why were there two USB connectors, one smaller and one larger one?
The larger USB connector is for USB 3.0 and the smaller USB connector is for USB 2.0.
What game were you playing?
Nvm, I just realized you noted it in the description 🤭
I hv exactly same parts but no extra hard drive btw I have lian li cpu cooler rgb ones
Sounds good!
That RTX 3070 costs more that all the other components combined.
Excellent video! How much is the total cost?
Thank you! In total, this computer cost about £2,000.
@@EasyPcRepairs Ya, that's the 3070... how much was the rest of the build?
This build is total fan service. Uh, 5 to be exact.
Remember guys, if you’re following along and you forget to ground your motherboard and fry your computer to death, there’s no mistakes, just happy accidents
Can I ask why you opt for fan cooling for the CPU instead of liquid cooling? It’s rare to see in high end builds nowadays.
There were a few reasons that I didn't go with liquid cooling. One of them was that a liquid cooler won't fit at the top of this particular case (it would've hit the motherboard). And if I'd put a liquid cooler at the front of the case, that would have meant its tubes likely touching the graphics card on this particular PC, which may have looked a little unsightly. Also, the only good RGB white liquid cooler I could find (one by Corsair) would have cost quite a lot more than the air cooler that I chose, and (at the time) there was quite a long wait to get one too.
How noisy is the GPU while gaming? Those temps are incredible!
The graphics card is quite quiet during gaming. I don't think that anyone would complain about the noise it makes as the fans appear to be well designed for fairly low noise.
Is it ok if I go for a 2070 super or 3060ti instead?
Yes, both of those graphics cards will work perfectly well with this computer.
@@EasyPcRepairs thanks
Just curious I don't see thermal paste being applied to processor in these videos?
Thermal paste has always been present between any cpu and heatsink on any pc that I've built. Sometimes I don't show it being applied if it has been pre-applied to the heatsink.
Where can you find all these parts in the UK? Amazon? Curry's or elsewhere.
Amazon, Currys, scan.co.uk and overclockers.co.uk.
Would you recommend purchasing parts for my soon to be build in sections instead of saving up money for all parts at once.
Since parts are going in and out of stock
I generally wait until I can purchase everything at once. But there's nothing wrong with buying parts as they become available if you get all your parts within a reasonable amount of time.
If you had two pc towers that were identical to each other, with the exception that one was black and the other one was white, would they both draw the same amount of heat when they're powered off and powered on? If there would be a temperature difference, what would it be?
That's an interesting question. I've never put it to the test. I would imagine that a white case would be very slightly cooler, but can't say for sure though.
what kind of fan splitters did you use?
I used 4 pin '3 in 1' fan splitters.
Where did you buy your fan splitters? And do they sell the hard disks in Curry's?
cheers
Bought the fan splitters on Amazon. Currys do sell hard drives (which is where I purchased mine).
@@EasyPcRepairs Is there a specific amount of pins? Or can I get a link? Cheers
I used 4 pin fan splitters. Just to avoid any confusion, they have 4 holes at one end of the splitter. At the other end, one connector has 4 pins and the other two connectors have 3 pins.
What software do you use at the end of the video to show the FPS and CPU and GPU usage percentages?
I used "MSI Afterburner" software to show the FPS.
@@EasyPcRepairs Thanks!
how much was this build in total?
It was a total of £2,000.
@@EasyPcRepairs thank you
