i have about 5k usd$, in about a year or so im going to finally build my own PC. im scared im probably gonna build this shit wrong and it explodes on me LOL. anyone wanna link great videos that explain certain things like how to properly cool a CPU and GPU? i dont need videos that jus say BUY THIS AND BUY THAT, i need them to explain it to me, rather not be handed it yk? watched alot of linustechtips and still abit anxious, all depends if i get this intern job as well though.

wish me LUCK that it doesnt explode lol

When I built my PC in September I almost exclusively used the Linus Tech Tips building guide video. It's pretty general and doesn't cover everything (since every PC is different), but it was more than enough to get me going and helping me troubleshoot if I was stuck/nervous about something. I highly HIGHLY recommend it.

In terms of cooling the CPU, it's just dependent on the cooler you buy (air cooler vs AIO liquid). I use an air cooler and it's dirt easy to install assuming you use the right amount of paste (the LTT guide will lyk how much). AIO I'm not experienced with but I heard it's a little more complicated, but a guide/review of that cooler will get you to the right spot anyway.

The most important thing is that you do your research so that you get parts that work well together (the last thing you want is to realize that a part you bought isn't compatible with the mobo or psu you got) and to make sure you have a clean environment to build (no dirt/dust/grime and a way to get rid of static electricity so you don't cook something by touching it on accident). Otherwise, it's really not that hard, and if you just take your time it's very hard to get something wrong IMO.

Best of luck!

power supply unit! the LTT video has a section on picking one iirc. A big mistake you could make is getting a PSU that's too weak to power something. (For example, a 500W PSU wouldn't be able to power my GPU, but I have a 1 kW so it's fine). If you use pcpartspicker you can see how much power you'd need too
