Hi, good morning. Thank you so much. This video has really helped me have a better understanding of the motherboard and the differential between motherboards. I’m certainly going to subscribe to your channel. Thank you for your time and effect in making this video. You’ve helped me tremendously. 🙏
Thank you for the feedback! 🙏🏼I appreciate it and I am glad that I was able to help! 👊🏼
@@TechRated Hi, No! Thank you 🙏❤️
this is one of the most underrated motherboard videos on youtube, I needed to find a video that tells everything about motherboard as i got a job in a pc components retail shop, huge respect man, love from India
Thank you for that! 🙏🏼 I am glad the video helped! 👊🏼 Good luck with your new job!
Started my first PC build - extremely helpful video! very simple explanations, easy-to-understand, and catered to beginners which is great
Thank you for this! Getting ready to start researching components for a build. This will definitely help. 🤛🏼
appreciate it. This is very helpful for someone like me, who knows nothing about the technical part of computer. I had trouble understanding the motherboard specs on paper. now everything is clear
Very very helpful video! Thanks a lot!
Really helpful and concise video. Thanks!
Hats off. Hats OFF to you brother. You really broke a motherboard down super well for beginners and I myself was struggling a few years back looking at a motherboard but now it’s super simple. Thanks for the BIG help!!
I find the modern builds really help understand the mother board. Too much going on old ones with the whole north/south bridge and legacy ports
@@andrewpersaud4144 That’s a fact, the new ones are WAY more straightforward
Really helpful. I really understood the motherboard. Most of the videos presented old motherboard
I truly appreciate those who break things down to this much detail for us generalists who scratch only the service. Bravo!
Thank you for the feedback. 🙏🏼 Glad the video helped!
Nicely explained !
This really helped me. Thank you so much!
You’re welcome! Glad to help! 👊🏼
I have some schoolwork where I need to take a picture of a motherboard and explain what is where. I knew nothing of computers before and this helped A LOT Thank you!
Best motherboard video I have ever seen, so well explained and the graphics are superb, thankyou!!!
Wow, thanks! I appreciate the feedback! 🙏🏼
Informative video 👍
Thanks for a nice video!
Big Lebowski reference, nice!
This is the best explaination of motherboards i came across to. Thanks
Thank you! I appreciate it!! 👊🏼🙏🏼
INCREDIBLE VIDEO! Deserves 1M+ views
I’m not sure about that, but thank you for the feedback! 👊🏼🙏🏼
I know you posted this a year ago but this actually goes hand in hand with the new comptia A+ training. Thank you for this I will be sharing with my class mates and subbing ;)
Thank you for the feedback! 👊🏼
Thank you!
Love this channel man
Thank you! 🙏🏼I appreciate that! 👊🏼
Thank you for this. I’m currently in school for computers, and I have to say that you explained this way better than my school😂
nothing but just cooool thank u for making it simple aprct that ❤🙏🙏🙏
You’re welcome! Glad to help! 👊🏼
Thank you so much. You're a genius
Glad to help! 👊🏼
thank you!
Great video, keep it up
Sorry for the delayed response. It has been a busy week! I appreciate the feedback...especially since it is one of my smaller or less viewed videos. 👊🏼
Loved the video! And I’m also in the process of building my pc
Awesome Seth! Specs so far??
@@TechRated motherboard is a B450, Processor is a Ryzen 5 2600, GPU is 1650 super 4gb, ram is 16gb DDR4 3200 MHz, storage is 2TB HHD and a m.2 256 SSD. 650W PSU (because it was cheaper than the 550W PSU. I’m getting the CPU and the M.2 SSD today and I already have the GPU, and I’m getting the rest of the parts on the 20th
Very nice build! I think you have mentioned it before in a video, I just forgot some of the specs. For that system, 550W is perfect. What case? What games are you gonna play?
@@jasonrose5068 the case I thought about going with a mid tower because it also supports a micro atx motherboard, and the games I’m gonna play are Apex Legends, CSGO, Valorant, Maybe fortnite, GTA V, And Maybe The new Call Of Duty Cold War
Mid tower cases are pretty much the most used cases now...so great choice. You need to let me know if the COD Cold War campaign is any good! Haven’t bought a COD game in years!
Cool Video!
Good vid fam
Cool video
this videos is dopeeeee
Thank you for the feedback! 🙏🏼 I am glad that you found it helpful. 👊🏼
What if you install GPU in the second slot? what happens?
why is no one watching this? this was exactly what i was looking for that is missing from all the other videos about motherboards i've seen.
WOW PACK EXPLANATION
Good video, but i have a question. What is the little light blue slot on the asus motherboard? I got an old pc and wanna know
Almost missed this comment! Thank you for the feedback. Are you referring to the slot to the left of the Xtreme Phase heat sink?
@@TechRated thanks for responding! No, sadly. I am referring to the ones at the bottom of the mobo, that are aligned horizontally. Are they PCIe-s?
How can you find out if the motherboard supports 3TB storage?
great first time effort for this guide,so let's see if i can add some input to help you update the video when you feel the need...firstly motherboard manual images,would have been great to see some images uploaded when you were speaking about the connection ports on the MB,you certainly did mention the manuals a few times but they are a great way of finding what ports do what and also what restrictions using certain ports will have on the other parts of the board,(i.e. M.2 slots restricting PCIE lanes etc),i know you didn't want to draw the video out for too long as peoples attention spans here on youtube are terrible but where guides or tutorials are concerned they can be as long as they need to be,some of your info was pretty technical especially names of components or slots and connections breaking this down a little with uploaded images or screen text overlays whilst your explaining the specific item in question can be a great way to help people less in the know understand the item in question...other than that you covered the whole guide very well...truely impressed with this content...keep up te good work
Thank you! I appreciate the feedback. If/when I update the video, I will keep this in mind.
A little question if u mind !! Can i really put any intel cpu generation on any intel socket motherboard ?
No! The CPU must compatible with the socket you are planning to use or the socket your motherboard is equipped with.
What happens if you damage one of the pins of the CPU?
If you damage the pins on the CPU socket, it can run but there will be a black screen. Other times it would intermittently shut down after a few seconds
Me: "wow, what a cool motherboard." Him: "this is a bad motherboard." Me: _why are we still here? just to suffer?_
Accent is N.C, Tennessee, West Virginia or Kentucky...Am I right?
Yes! But which one? Lol 😂
@@TechRated I'm from West Virginia,,so if I absolutely had to guess I would say North Carolina or tennessee..Did I guess right so far?. I'm subbd either way
@@Snowy0123 You’re probably located closer to me than you think! I’m from Kentucky. What part of WV?
@@TechRated no way.. I'm from Logan West Virginia... I spent a lot of time in pikeville kentucky... what part of kentucky?
I grew up right next to Pike County, in Letcher County. Now I’m not far from Lexington. I taught at Martin Co ATC for three years and we would go across the border to WV and eat from time to time.

Every view counts! Just getting started on this channel! What tech videos would you like to see in the future on the channel?
i would love to see more tutorials
@@scratch3699 Be specific! I already have several tutorials covering the basics. What kind of tutorial are you thinking of?
maybe tips and tricks for windows 10
@@scratch3699 Okay! I'll see what I can do!
acronyms don't follow rules, say it howw u likk. sadahtay!
I guarantee you I’m the biggest PC virgin you’ve ever had watch your videos!! No B.S. literally the ONLY THING I know about my prebuilt gaming PC I got today is that I have a ASUS PRIME X670-P WiFi motherboard with 32GB of ram, a ryzen 9 7900X CPU and a ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 4070 GPU… which I assume even tho the GPU says “zotac gaming” on it it’s still a Nvidia built GPU… I have no clue what a chipset is or drivers or anything else for that matter!!
