first time buying diy computer, NEED HELP~!!

[applebig]

Wait, why pay $200 now den collect tml? Cannot go down tml n buy n wait for them to assemble?

But, imo, u missed out on part of the fun of DIY. It is not only just purchasing individual parts to suit ur need, but also to ownself build it. Once everything is inside the case and you want to press the button, you can feel the adreline.

Right now, u bring ur rig back, u press the button, sure no such feeling. Only excitement as u have new com. U missed out on the fun part - part 2.

i just did that abt 3 weeks back. that feeling !!!
really dk how describe, scared but when its working i was like, ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH THIS! IS! SPARTA!!!

My father keep making noise as he scared if i dont go watcj them assemble parts i will get conned

if u really want let TP asssemble then please, also spend so much money alrdy, put in a bit more effort and stay there to watch over ur baby get built. if not later bring back alrdy dont even know if its ur 'qinsheng' one a not ah..

if really no time then ask pctheme to do it and spend more or look for fortran to deliver to u.

Second that. The feeling is really good. The satisfaction. Its like cooking a meal and eat it yourself you will appreciate it more then if someone else cook it for you haha. I feel like if you build the rig yourself for yourself you will appreciate your rig even more haha.

Like what shadow mentioned. You missed out the fun to diy.

For me i bah to it already. So far out of 10 com assembled 9 of it turn on sucessfully when first time. Only one failed but found out i have connected the switch button polarity wrongly.

If i were you go out and venture your first time.

From now till tml, go to youtube and watch linustechtip diy guide and newegg diy guide 3 parts. keep watching them, u will be familiar with the process.

Tml, go at 11, wait for shop to open, pay the rest and bring back all parts. make sure dey dun charge u labour costs.

Then, slowly build it. take whole afternoon if u need. the moment all are done and u turn on, its like hallehluya.

Also, by self building u will get to know ur rig better, and for simple troubleshooting, u know what to do.

I spent close to 6 hrs, including dinner trying to start my com. Reason was that i forgot to put heatsink on, and the moment i turn on pc, cpu heat up to 100 C and auto shutdown. Keep on finding online for solutions and suddenly it dawned to me, "why is my heatsink outside?"

Wtf u win lmao.....
I plugged the cpu power to the wrong modular slot so my com kept refusing to turn on hahaha... i was sweating so much and trying to think what went wrong hahaha
Took the system apart twice (i had the cable managements all done up nicely the firat time too XD) its only after i removed the psu frm the case that i found that my cpu power cable is plugged into modular slot for pci-E power =-=

After that i was just so hyped about my new com.... i kept bragging about the short windows installation time and the short reboot times and the short start up time and and and..... my parents was throughly annoyed by me by dinner time hahaha

 

[shadow84]

Lol, i also did cable management along the way as well.

For me personally i feel that carey holzman did a better job than linus. Linus one more fast paced so if u want save time then find his video. holzman one quite joke. see how he throw all the instructions away. lmao.
