Addition tip: when updating the bios, make sure to read the notes for each update since sometimes you'll need to update to a specific version before updating to the newest version
if it's not broke break it then fix it🤣
Well said I had issues XD
@@User-JT89WA1 read the manual
@@User-JT89WA1 if you read the bios it will be stated as bridging bios
Mine also had to be flashed for cpu compatibility. IDK that when flashing I have to remove cpu, ram, gpu, m.2... it took me a day to get a display!!!
17:50 Extra tip: After you kill that splash screen, go into Settings > System > Notifications and scroll to the bottom and find (It may be under Additional Settings depending on your version) a checkbox that says something like "Show the Windows welcome experience after updates yadda yadda" and then "Get tips and suggestions when using Windows" and untick both of them. This ensures (probably depending on how much you believe microsoft will honor their own settings) that you don't get prompted to buy Office 365 or Game Pass or whatever other bs they want to upsell you.
Finally, thank you so much! I was trying to find out how to block that stupid welcome splash screen for quite a long time. Cheers mate!
Been doing this since eons and I can confirm those settings are respected.
As an IT-guy I just uncheck them all. There a nuisance all the time.
Is there a handy way to avoid creating a user id too, so that it defaults to admin ?
@@grahamstevenson1740 I think this works using unattended mode.
I don't know why, but for me this guy is like the Dr. House of PC building.
Maybe it's the almost undetectable hint of rage and sarcasm accrued from years of this hobby that we all know too well. Maybe it's the fact that every scientific aspect of what he is doing is explained so thoroughly as he sardonically mocks the entire PC industry and their greed.
Either way, Jay, you are easily the most entertaining and educational pc building youtuber I've ever seen.
Lookng forward to more.
Lol, pretty damn accurate.
He even looks like him
@@Isaax Only Iacking the crackhead eyes and darker hair lol

He's an American treasure
Thanks Jay, while not my first build its usually 5 years between them and I have you to thank for making it go smoother. Thanks dude!
This will be ALWAYS the kind of USEFUL videos I turn to in this chanell, many times Jays has been a lifesaver
True
unlike Linus Tech Tips which is all about building extravagant builds, and builds, and more builds.

@@reyashvishwa yea, i unsub’d from LTT b/c it just seemed like one big commercial for new products

Jay, I like direction you are taking the channel. It’s fun to talk about the latest tech but basic nuts and bolts information is what we need. Plus you are really good at presenting it. Thank you!
This is so true. There are only two things audiences want: information they can use today, and vicarious exposure to things they don't have.
yess, this is all we needed!
Don't refer to any thing Linus Douche Tech does... Do your own thing.
Solid yes to this observation.
very true. Love the basic tutorial vids as he explains every action that he does. Very easy to follow along
Just wanted to say, I used your video even in this day and age to build my very first pc and I thank you so very much for every informative video you put out. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I've been building my first PC from scratch after having been a pre-build simpleton for 20 years and this channel has been such a huge help. Gotta say Jay is my favorite of the PC hardware youtubers, videos are always very to the point and straight forward. Helped me keep my sanity while doing my build this week!
Bit late to the comments on here but I’m about to be that “pre-build simpleton” 🤣 and have no idea what I’m doing. Will I not have to do all this?
@@titchpr2no it should come ready to go. This is for people that built their system
@@coltonholaway7902 alright thanks man. It comes on the 20th. Can’t wait 😂
@@titchpr2 lol im currently hittin up all my buddies for help doing this part. Decided to build my own and stuck at this part
This guide is missing something that is a "feature" of Windows 11. Please upvote this so other people see it!! (Hopefully Jay sees it also)
Windows 10 used to notify you of "Optional Updates" on the main updates page, which can include important driver updates. Windows 11 has buried this in the Updates menu.
To find it go to Settings > Windows Update > Advanced Options. About halfway down the screen you'll see "Additional options" and under that is "Optional updates"
This is super important. I was missing my network drivers and had to install them on a USB also.
I'd also suggest using some utility for installing drivers, like the SDI Snappy Installer (which is free and without ads, payment, and is reliable) and use it for updating the drivers. For most of the users it might be more of an optional thing to do (to update all drivers possible) though
@nik_evdokimov wait I've never heard of this before, can you elaborate? correct me if im wrong but it sounds like ur describing a program that updates the drivers of your component(s) for you? *automatically?*
@@nik_evdokimov free, without ads, absolutely not open and russian, very very suspicious, to work this kind of soft use agent. You absolutely do not want an agent from unknown origin, at least not if you value you data privacy
i'd really stay away from this soft
if it's free, you are the product

Just finished my first build. Used your videos as a guide and now this one and I have to say you're one of the best UA-cam creators for no BS information. Just tons of helpful information for us who don't have as much experience as you
Hi there! I was wondering if you could help me since i’ve just built my first pc. I’m trying to download windows 10 installer onto my usb but it keeps saying that the C drive is full. But i can’t delete anything else and it won’t let me move it to my hard drive.
@@hannah-io3kt Bruh how do you use a brand new pc without having an operating system ;-;
@@ScizzoringGirlz😂😂
@@hannah-io3kt0:01 12
@@ScizzoringGirlzBrand New custom PC’s don’t come with operating systems. I just finished my first build recently and I had to manually install Windows with a flash drive.
Just finished my first PC build and used your videos as a guide. I’m not really a tech person and not a huge a gamer (super casual) but needed a system primarily for storyboarding and 2-d animation. I learned so so much through these videos and ended up taking the whole weekend to complete my build.
Do you make animations ?
I've been learning about PC hardware/software for a little over a year and I took Friday/Saturday, 2 days as well. Either I suck or you did good!
Currently building my first pc & I was super intimidated about the after part, but after watching this I feel more than knowledgeable about how to do everything correctly with bios & windows! I know some things have changed since a year ago so I've been watching other videos but this is the most in depth one I've seen even a year later. Thanks so much!
Having built my first computer in 1984 (wild wild west), I know how truly complicated building one can be. You, Jay, are one of the most patient, articulate teachers I have ever watched. Thank you for yet another excellent how-to.
I can't even imagine how hard it was to build a computer back then. Those were the days of BBC Acorn.
Wow 🤩 that is amazing tbh
1984……??? Just getting that thing to turn on must’ve brought tears to your eyes
ATX standards didn’t exist back then
mad respect
I feel ya. I started as a computer tech back in 1987 with the IBM PC and XT. I built my first PC as a 286. Those were the days of DOS.
Oh man, if ONLY I could hear this one month ago, I would save sooo much time/money as I had constant birth problems with my new build... last time I build a PC from the scratch was in 2016 and let me tell you, things changed A LOT for newbies like me... Thanks anyway as this goes to the Golden folder of bookmarks!
oh yes the golden folder where we all keep the treasures we don't want to lose from the internet
Thank you so much for this video and your other pc-guide videos. I hadnt used a pc or windows OS in over 8 years and your guides gave me the confidence to build my wife a gaming pc for our anniversary gift. I just finished it about an hour ago and everything worked out so well after 5 long hours 🥹 her reaction to the surprise was everything i imagined it to be though. Thank you for helping me make that moment a reality, you dont understand how much it means to me.
Thanks for making this video. This being my first pc build, I followed your video to the end and thank God I did because I definitely would have foobarred the BIOS setup. Thank you Jay
Tip: At 14:00, you can proceed to connect to a network. When prompted for a Microsoft account, you can enter "user" as the email and a random letter as the password. After pressing enter, the process will fail and prompt you to create an offline account. You can then continue to follow the setup process. This works for both Windows 10 and 11.
Yep that's how I do it. Or you copy a custom unattend.xml into \Windows\Panther just before setup reboots. :)
So that skips the f10 process... Or no.
@@strydyrhellzrydyr1345 Yes if you enter that, it errors out and lets you pass without an account and without the console.
@@kyoudaiken but why you avoid creating microsoft accounts ?

Looking back at your past videos & refreshing them with new or up to date information is a great way to take your channel in a new direction. It will help a lot of people out there whether it's your new subscribers or people who are looking for PC related information.
Thanks Jay! Great INTEL, great flow and pace and clearly spoken. Got my first custom build up and ready based on your videos!
This has to be one of the best videos for PC set up i have ever seen, thank u soooo much!
Two years ago I built my oldest son his first PC. This old video was the most helpful I could find and much appreciated. I have since built three more for all my boys and always come back to your videos anytime I need help. Thanks for the dedication. Your content definitely helped us!!!
You and Paul's PC building videos like this are what helped me build my first pc, get everything running properly, work on other people's pc and currently in the process of doing another build with a lot more ideas. I'll always be grateful for these videos
Wow, I had no clue I wasn't subscribed to your channel yet! For anyone new to the PC world, first time builder and just anyone who's a PC owner - subscribing to your channel is an absolute MUST! 💓 Your and @PC Builder are my top 2 PC/techie creators on YT 💓
Jay! Thank you so much for making this video. This saved me a lot of pain and heartache! Building my first ever gaming pc and this video made it easy in terms of getting things started after the build!! Keep it up!
The original version of this is one of my favorite videos made by this channel. Thank you for the awesome update!
This is such a timely video. I have been building PCs for years, but today I'm doing my first new build in six years. This saved me a lot of time and hassles and served as both a refresher and an update into what's new, especially the workaround to avoid installing with a MS account. Thank you.
As someone building her very first pc and has limited knowledge, this is SO helpful!! Thank you!!
All this worked for me. Thanks Jay!
I just built my first ever from the case up gaming PC and I just wanted to say THANK YOU for this video! It told me perfectly how to set my computer up from the start. You Sir are the best. Thank you!
Jay! You and your crew are greatly appreciated! I literally was searching your page (you are my favorite GURU! and the creator I seek first in all things related to PC builds and reviews) for this exact subject. The assembly of my Pc doesn't intimidate me, It's the software and correct settings and fine turning of the system software that makes me feel more than unqualified.
Thank you!!!
Sincerely wishing you and your family all the very best!!
Thank you so much for all the knowledge you share, dude. I'm building my first PC and your videos have helped me with so many roadblocks. Appreciate you.
Thank you so much. Just finished my first build I'm geeked
Always a fan of these refreshers. Going to put together a DD5 high end system in a few months, so I'm happy to go over these points again. I'm looking forward to a debloat update as well!
Same. Even though I did the opposite of you and built a new AM4 system (5800X). Well aware I'm at the end of this cycle, but I was able to recycle many parts from the old build, and although my new system was chugging along before this video came out, I found the tips to be great. My next build will be all out though. I was just getting impatient with the performance of my old rig and didn't want to wait any longer as some of the newer stuff is priced too high.
My old Xeon workstation finally bit the dust and Microcenter had a few parts on sale so I went 13700k z790+DDR5 (Intel+Nvidia still has AMD beat for content creation which I do a lot more than gaming). This video is perfectly timed for me to go over anything I might have missed post build + OS install.
It's crazy how many helpful guides are just being released when I'm going to build my first ever PC in a couple days!!!
Thank you for the help Jay!
I just build my own PC ad this video helped so much. Thank you! I can always count on you!!
Extraordinary tutorial Jay. I just completed my 1st build yesterday afternoon and now at 4am I was going to start my setup. Unfortunately, I do not own a wired keyboard so I have to wait till this afternoon when I can get one. This tutorial is very precise and explanatory. I'm sure I will have no problem with your help. THANKS!!!
The youtube algorithm was kind! This is exactly what I needed. The last parts of my computer are coming tomorrow and this is my first build. I understand the parts, and I like tinkering, but I don't know anything about the actual setup once the pc is together. Thank you for this!
The previous version of this video is what brought me to the channel because there are so few of these videos out there. thank you for making an updated on this is sure to bring many more people into the pc enthusiast world
So so useful for me that I have been out of pc builds at least 15 years. Lot's of things have changed. I will defo use this video as a guide
Thanks, Jay! This will be a huge help over the weekend. I'll be building a PC for the first time in years
Thanks so much for this refresher! This was awesome. I’ve been watching for a long long time. I have used the knowledge from this channel to build a mass amount of pc’s. Because of your videos I took on my first water loop.
I have an interview for an IT position, I’d have to say it’s mostly because I have learned a lot about the bios settings and inner workings because of you. I owe a lot of credit to you good sirs.
Thanks for continuing to release awesome videos like this!
Thank you so very much for putting these out. Thanks for using older episodes to refresh your content. I wish more creators were like this.
Jay, 4 years ago I built my first ever PC and you were instrumental in that process. Being that I’m not a computer guy I haven’t watched you since. Until now. My wife wanted a new PC. I was able to put it together but the windows install I found you again and I have to say brother, you are the ABSOLUTE BEST. So knowledgeable, so thorough, give exactly what I needed. I love you man!! 😂😂😂
Terrific information! And the presentation is methodical and clear! Great job!
Just to Note: A freshly downloaded install media will have 90+% of updates pre installed. Makes updating take significantly less time.
I forgot how to do the windows boot ... do i just have to use the media creation tool ? Or do i need other files on the boot stick ?
@@dennis5607 the tool should be enough iirc
Just completed my first PC build with the help of your guide. It went swimmingly. BIOS flashed, Windows and drivers and all that jazz updated, XMP enabled, monitor at 240Hz, and a Windows local admin account where I haven't been forced to log in with my Microsoft account. Ran several benchmarks and zero crashes. Now I just need to see about tuning my fan curves and getting the rest of my data transferred from my old PC. Thank you!
Why wouldn’t u want to use a Microsoft account doesn’t everyone have one
followed the steps to the tee and got my new build running! Thanks Jay
Watched this in preparation of building a new rig later today and found it to be highly informative (as are all your vids lol), thanks a lot and keep up the great work :D
After over 35 years in IT support, I can say you've covered this process thoroughly! Keep up the excellent work, young fella! ;)
The first video on this information helped me set up my first self built computer in 2019, thanks for all the work you guys do.
Great video, Jay! Exactly what I was looking for!
Thank you Jay for your videos. They are very helpful for me to build my first computer, and to install the operating system.
This video is gold, helped me a lot, even though I installed the os and did the bios update and changed the xmp profile afterwards. You truly helped me conquer my bios fears. Liked and subbed 🤟
I really appreciate the more software related content on the channel or rather said a good mix of both, software and hardware related stuff 😊👍
You're the man, I would be so lost without this video, thank you! 👍🏼
I've just finished my first pc build and I want to thank you Jay & team for helping me in every step of the way with your videos (even the one you told you fried a motherboard cuz of a missing screw, I lost one in the back of my msi z790 but I found it soon enough).
It’s funny because I’m JUST about to build my first rig tomorrow and have been watching the 2022 version from you and Austin and was hoping this came out soon. Strangely perfect timing but thankful for the help.
how did the build go?
yo, how did the build go?
Everything went pretty perfect. I haven’t had any hardware problems at all and it runs as good as I thought it would. Thinking about upgrading my GPU but that’ll come later. Other than that it’s been perfect I’ve been glued to it for like a month
Hey guys, I have to thank you so much. Just finished my first build and I have to say I relied heavily on you and Austin Evans to get it done. I also have to say when it came to the nitty gritty of everything, you were the MAN!!! I don’t know if I ever would have gotten through all of the downloads and updates and needed programs if it wasn’t for you.
Thank you again!!!
Hi, Nice to see you did great building your Pc! I'm also building my first Pc, can u recommend some helpful videos?
Austin? Did your system blow up yet?
watched video from 4 years ago and this one man you cover all the basics for me thanks bro!
Super useful video. I already know a lot of this stuff but it's great to have a video so I can check myself in case I forget something.
3:50 most of the time it shouldn't matter, but it's a good practice to check the manufacturer's manual first. I had a lot crashes, BSODs a L O T of memory issues with an ASRock B550 because I didn't read the manual and installed the RAM sticks on A1/B1. After changing to A2/B2 as the manual stated, everything went smoothly.
Jay, wow what you do with this channel is take the fear away from all these small details. Bravo brother on continued education and valuable PC advice. I appreciate you taking the apprehensive mindset away and replacing it with courage.
Thank you so much for this. I find the building part simple and straightforward, this is the very confusing part that no1 mentions in videos.
Great vid; been a decade since my last build, awesome refresher.
Hey man! Just wanted to say thanks to you and others in the community. I just finished my (second) build (first by myself). I upgraded from a intel i5 3470 that I built in 2012 with a buddy to a Ryzen 7700. Now I have to save up for the gpu. But thanks for your videos, they were great in helping me decide what I wanted to get! Keep it up! Thanks again!
Great to hear. What mobo did you go for. Thanks for any advice
These videos are very underrated and I hope you know how much this helps newbies and veterans alike! Thank you!
Great refresher video! It's been 12 years since my last build(Athlon ll 4 core, AM3 board)!
Yeah... it is definitely time for a refresh.
Love it thank you for making this so seamless.
One thing to mention is installing all your motherboard and chipset drivers. I go into device manager and ensure all devices are recognized. Usually unrecognized devices are motherboard drivers in my experience. Recently I also had issues with my intel Wi-Fi cards needing a driver as well to recognize the bluetooth capability.
Actually perfect timing dude, just got my PC finished, only GPU is missing (hopefully comes tomorrow).
First self-built system for me too!
Appreciate your rundown man this will 100% help me finishing my system!
remember to use I fix it!!!!
Just finished my build and this video got me through it all. Kudos for making this so detailed!
How long did it take you to do all these things?
This guide helped me a lot when building and would’ve saved me a lot of headaches had i found it sooner. thank you and hope you are doing better
Fun additional note, if you are using ethernet, you will need to unplug your ethernet cable first. Otherwise windows will reboot back into non-bypass mode if it detects an internet connection, instead of letting you proceed without an account.
Those sheisters
Great guide Jay! I’m a seasoned veteran when it comes to building PCs, but I love watching these types of videos anyway. 🔥
This is also making me want to checkout BIOS updates for my board. If there’s anything useful or important, I might just want to update it. But I’m also the same way as you, if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it. Still worth checking though, since it’s been years.
Thanks Jay, appreciate how informative you have made everything.
I'm so happy I found this channell - great advices, great sense of humour! Thank you!
Jay, wanted to drop by and say thank you for your help on how to start up my first build easy and fun. But most importantly informative about what to do, why and safely how you can improve after you safely built out and got things rolling. It wasn't easy in the beginning bc of how many expensive pieces here. Thanks for making it easier and safer.
Thanks a ton for this video. I've never built a computer before (and didn't even know half the stuff) and spent the past 2 weeks researching what parts to get and how to actually build it and set it up. And now it's done and woking properly in one shot, this video for the setup was crucial. Big help!!
I know you probably get asked a lot of times but thank you! There are many of us that remain clueless and your up to date information helps people like me a lot!
My friend told me that setting up and building my own pc is way more complicated since I am not good with technology and had said the wiring parts, with connecting it all up together would be difficult for me. I spent 2 and a half hours looking at people building their own pc’s for the first time, I always see they cut the screen time down. So I wondered what do you do then, do you just set it up and go on downloading the things you want? Then I saw this video, I decided to watch it, I was confused on some parts, but going through it a few times made it more clear to me. This was easy to comprehend even when I am lost with technology. This has been the most helpful and educational experience I have had from a video in my own personal aspects. Thank you for clearing this up and doing a video as educational as this. This has really helped me come to a more understanding of what to do. And is helping me with my choices of building my own pc.
13:48 You can still connect it to the internet, then select "Setup for work or School". When it asks for the Microsoft account, go into sign-in options and use "Domain join instead". This lets you set up a local account while Windows goes through and starts with parts of updates.
11:50 if you need to know what disk is what. You can open the command prompt during install and run diskpart. Then select a disk and run detail on it. It will tell you some additional identifying information about the disk. Which may make it easy to figure out which disk is which. As long you don't have multiples of the same disk
Thank you Jay for the is awesome video. With your help I was able to build and setup my first pc. Great work
Thanks Jay! First computer I've ever built so I appreciate your help! 👍
I wish I had discovered Jay's channel before this year. It has been an absolute treat. Awesome presentation, thorough, detailed nuts and guts explanations,l. Just stellar stuff
Thank you so much for this video! I haven't built a system in well over a decade and this walk through really helped with all the "new" things this old gamer needed to know!
Awesome content 😊 thank you so much. Most helpful video I’ve seen so far
amazing and easy to understand video, thanks man!
I can usually fit the BIOS firmware update on the same USB stick the windows boot installer is on; it's not like BIOS images are very big even on a small 8GB drive. Just slap it on the root of the USB drive, and you're good to go. You may also have enough room to put recent drivers for your GPU, motherboard chipset, and whatever other devices you're planning on using.
Please do a video on how to keep your PC at optimal speed 🙏🙏🙏🙏 I built my PC with your guide a couple years back and it's a bit slower than day 1. Need a guide to keep it close to day 1 speed. Thanks JAY!!
Thankyou so much for all you do!! This saved me the hassle of messing something up 😅
Thank you so much this helped alot and saved me a lot time and money one of my favorite channels
13:57 Thank you this is what I needed I was unable to proceed ahead during installation as it was getting stuck on the WiFi connection page and the only option visible to me was Ethernet. I couldn’t load WiFi drivers on the motherboard during first boot in spite of loading the drivers on the flash drive. This bypass method helped me to move forward. ❤
This!
I'm just completing my first build in 8 years and the tech has changed so this has been extremely helpful to me as a guide. Thanks for all your efforts and time putting this video together. Cheers!
I heard of customers PC builds a few months ago, but I didn’t really pay them much attention. Then a few weeks ago, it came to my attention that I needed a new PC. I been using a MacBook Pro for the last 5-6 years. But it was very limiting from the programs I wanted to use and the games I wanted to play. So in the last 3 weeks, I learned all about the main components to a gaming PC/PC’s in general, and I also built my VERY FIRST gaming PC. In a little over 2 of these last 3 weeks, I educated myself fully on all the main components, what they are, and how they work. Then in the last week I just finished building it 😎
As I type this, I’m sitting at my desk finishing my necessary software installs. This whole process has been super enjoyable, satisfying, and definitely worth it! 💯 👍
I'm about to build a new PC and it's been 10 years since I did it last time. So much has changed and I've spent like a month to educate myself on the current PC landscape.
In the past I've not really been the biggest fan of your videos. However, over the last few months I've been enjoying your content more and more. And I realized I was ignorant to certain things. But after watching this video, I'm officially on the Jay Train. Thanks Buddy.
Excellent video Jay!! Clear, concise, and easy to follow for a beginner at all this. Building a lot of confidence in us first timers I am sure!
Great video. Just missing a part about enabling rebar. Would also highly recommend downloading drivers from the mb website(chipset etc), but only those u actually need
I'd also say, make sure your windows install sets up guid partition table to enable BAR, e.g. if using intel ARC GPUs. As I found having mbt partitions results in lots of head scratching when BAR causes crashes if you don't already know to do that.
great video, much appreciated - thanks Jay!
Just went to the new Micro Center in Indianapolis! Thanks for the heads-up! Can't get enough of these info vids! Thank you Jay!
