Ok this is not negative but I have to say she looks like John Travolta
Sara is great in every video!
Oh god. I dont have the best highest end build but jesus christ like 30% into the video ive already had a stroke and I have better parts for like 700€
Did she have instructions for anything? Cause it looks like she didn't or she decided not to use them. Although they are kinda confusing, they do explain almost everything somewhere.
I built my first computer about a month ago (after watching tech videos for years and helping my dad build his computer last year) and the only thing that really supprised me was how hard it was to get the ram in. They required more precise alignment than anything else and more force than anything else.
This was very very painful to watch.
"You're also a dinosaur" Did Sarah just call Linus old? LOL
Does Sarah have instagram?
Has Sarah thoroughly shaken the LTT screwdriver, to ensure it's quality?
I really don’t know much about computers, and it just hurt to watch. Like holy crap.
I thought he didn’t like Apple is it me or is he rocking AirPods Pro lol
This is how a "woman"☕️ build a gaming pc
does she not own a computer at her house?
0:14 Best balance of COST PRICE and customer service😶😅
Curse your sudden but inevitable wacking and shacking woman!
I feel you should have an experienced computer builder around the first time you build your own…. Sarah is not however the worst I've seen, my friend used a hammer, and it did not turn on
who needs a case tho? my motherboard and psu floats in air
I am a 13 year old and had to build a computer with an aio and I had almost none of the problems she had. The shaking of the components had me in tears 😂
Im building my own pc, as it's my first time with a pc, had no idea what i was thinking when i started but just as ya'll said, once it was in a cart i started scrutinizing what i was looking at and did tons of research. Hopeful this'll be good lol
Doesn't pcpartpicker already asks what cpu to uses first, why did she start with the motherboard 😭
Sarah is a cutie.She did fairly well.
You actually employ this person?
Since I will soon be building my first pc, this video is a great demonstration of what NOT to do
Holy shit, this was annoying
You guys need to do this again this year.
Me watching this never having spent more than $250 for any part….
i was far too scared to install my rtx 4080 or my i7
Linus just dying inside lmao
honestly for the case i waited when i got the pieces and went to an acrylic manufacturer to get them to make me one…costed 50$ and it look sick
Sarah is full of energy 💥💯❤️
As someone who learned basic PC building in highschool I agree that building a PC is something you should at least experience once. But the school's way of teaching PC building was flawed because we didn't really have specific parts… Instead of naming the parts by their actual names we just use their PC names. Instead of Intel i3 or what not we use CPU from the small box of CPUs, instead of ddr3 ram 1333 MHz we use the ram from a pile. It's nondescript and quite easy to understand. And as newbies we just didn't delve deeper into as we have a full schedule of other subjects.
The gist of it is that it's like a Lego building when we handle PC building. From the basics of assembly to the harder parts of installing a os and drivers through the disk drive.
Mixing and matching mobos CPU, hdd, and rams. To hell with compatibility if it fits it sits.
It was a fun and satisfying subject. And watching the PC you built turn on and connect to a Lan network with other PC the other classmates built is gratifying.
This was in my highschool before the internet was easily accessible.
how she not know anything when she works for you
I just think about decades of development. The science. The engineering. The manufacturing precision. The technological achievement that is the modern computer. Then Sarah over here “shake, shake, bang, bang”
when i was trying to build a PC, people kept telling me if i have never built one before, buy a prebuilt.
ended up buying an AMD one from Stince built, putting all the parts in pc part picker, and getting a good deal from Stince
and then upgraded it myself with more HDD, SSD, and individual parts
next time, i'll likely build my own, but for first time. its nice to literally watch someone, like Stince, build your pc live on stream (and save the recording)
"the motherboard doesn't affect performance" – ummm WHAT???? It most definitely DOES. I am extremely surprised at this erroneous statement by Linus!
poor Linus 🥲
I'm in the middle of building my first pc and can confidently say I never wanna do this again.
Watching Linus cringe when she tears the GPU out made me laugh so hard. I watched my 9 year old daughter build a PC and it was very difficult to not intervene.
he is soooooooo annoying omggg
Sarah could treat one of Linus's children the same as that PC and he would be less worried
duct taping the sata drive is genius.
they are crap anyway they dont deserve better
13:13 most painful part for me
its not linus groaning its linuses wallet
I think I breathed like 10 minutes of the 27 of the video
A testament to how reliable and sturdy PC parts are. You can brute force/shake your way into having a running PC….
In conclusion, building your own PC is bad, if you're a woman.
Bro I'm just dying while watching this
Audio from this one is bad compared to recent videos, damn.
