  2. I guess I will be "that guy"… Why not use motherboard standoffs under the board instead of sitting all that exposed circuitry on the bottom on a coated cardboard box that could possibly fry another board? It's maybe not too likely, but why risk it? Especially since newbies watch your channel to learn stuff.

  6. Still bummed you didn't get to use it at ces, I would have been gutted if my laptop didn't work when I got to vegas. Wish I could bring a desktop to vegas for it but since I have to fly laptop only…anyways maybe ill run into you again next year!

  16. That's the problem for those of us that do our builds for ourselves every few years, you got to have two of everything to swap out and test for bad components and if you maxed your budget on your build then you are stuck with shipping each part back and hoping the new one fixes the problem. That happen to me on my last build, it sat for month till I got to the RAM, Gigabyte had the RAM part number on their web sight as "usable" RAM for the Motherboard, it was NOT, all because of that I swapped out a good motherboard and CPU back to NewEgg.

    nice cosmetic case but not practical, really? you got to putting shrouds to control the air flow..lol I already know I going to put a water cooler in so if it don't have a top mount it tits on a bull to me. Go buy a fish tank if you want something to look at. Who wants a 10k computer with a over heating problem

    P.S. then Joe goes home and plays farmVille on Facebook…lol

  24. That feeling of relief after you get confirmation that the insanely vital component you thought might have died still works is almost euphoric. Had my own such moment a while back when my pump died and I thought it was my gpu. Thankfully that got cleared up quick enough that I was able to save my pc. New pump, nice cool temps, 6 year old gpu still kicking….THANK…..GOD!

  36. Hi Paul. When I saw you building the PC using that CIGABYTE MB box, I asked myself, "Why is he spending all that time, effort, and money and not using a real test/build bench?" When I use mine, it makes me feel so professional even though I sometimes don't know what the heck I'm doing.

  46. I was hoping you would do a video that circled back to this build. We were all left hanging in Las Vegas. Was wondering if you could have said more about the "electrostatic discharge" that killed the motherboard. How to avoid this, for example.

  49. Speaking from entirely painful experience I once zorched a MB when I touched a capacitor with the graphics card I was trying to reseat.

    My error was in forgetting to switch off the PSU at both its switch and the socket (I’m in the UK, we can do that).

    The sudden acrid smell told me I’d messed up and the MB was indeed toast. Didn’t kill any other components though so lucked out there.

    Doubt that’s the issue here but the fact it’s revision 1.2 would indicate something was bad enough they needed to act so it could simply be poor design or component selection at work.

    Either way, next up think some air flow investigation could be useful…
