not mean you should try and fill or full slots The Sweet Spot is normally two RAM
slots The Sweet Spot is normally two RAM chips one yeah it'll give you a lot of
chips one yeah it'll give you a lot of ram it'll give you decent speed but
ram it'll give you decent speed but you're not going to have the the optimal
you're not going to have the the optimal bandwidth two RAM chips is better so
bandwidth two RAM chips is better so instead of having just one ram chip of
instead of having just one ram chip of eight gigs you'll be better off having
eight gigs you'll be better off having two RAM chips of 4 gig each respectively
two RAM chips of 4 gig each respectively because of the bandwidth now yes you can
because of the bandwidth now yes you can go and add a third or a fourth but then
go and add a third or a fourth but then you're going to go and you know cause
you're going to go and you know cause instability in your system it's going to
instability in your system it's going to get slower again so The Sweet Spot is
get slower again so The Sweet Spot is the end of the day going to always be
the end of the day going to always be two RAM chips for most machines very
two RAM chips for most machines very rarely will you get you know proper
rarely will you get you know proper stability out of four RAM chips so if
stability out of four RAM chips so if you just need a lot of ram I suppose you
you just need a lot of ram I suppose you can go and do that but if you are a
can go and do that but if you are a serious gamer or someone that needs
serious gamer or someone that needs series speed and stuff like that then
series speed and stuff like that then you're going to want to try and keep the
you're going to want to try and keep the two RAM chips guys you'll see any proper
two RAM chips guys you'll see any proper gamer wory salt will always have only
gamer wory salt will always have only two RAM chips in not more than two more
two RAM chips in not more than two more than two causes instability in a system
than two causes instability in a system all right then I'm going to move you on
all right then I'm going to move you on to the bottom left of the motherboard
to the bottom left of the motherboard guys on the bottom left of most
guys on the bottom left of most motherboards you will find the seos and
motherboards you will find the seos and RTC Batteries Now to help aid with this
RTC Batteries Now to help aid with this if you guys don't know what the camos
if you guys don't know what the camos battery is uh that battery guys Powers
battery is uh that battery guys Powers the chipset that keeps track of the date
the chipset that keeps track of the date and time for the system it's also
and time for the system it's also referred to as I said the RTC battery or
referred to as I said the RTC battery or clock battery there's a bit of a picture
clock battery there's a bit of a picture for you guys in this picture you can see
for you guys in this picture you can see it looks like a coin cell battery you'll
it looks like a coin cell battery you'll actually you find that exact same size
actually you find that exact same size battery in your car's remote depending
battery in your car's remote depending on the car you drive and then this
on the car you drive and then this picture it's at the bottom left of the
picture it's at the bottom left of the motherboard that's actually a very
motherboard that's actually a very common place to find it somewhere in the
common place to find it somewhere in the vicinity of the bottom left of the
vicinity of the bottom left of the motherboard but they can also
motherboard but they can also potentially be located at the bottom
potentially be located at the bottom right of the motherboard depending on
right of the motherboard depending on the brand and a model of your
the brand and a model of your motherboard these batteries folks on
motherboard these batteries folks on average last approximately about 5 to 10
average last approximately about 5 to 10 years so if you buy yourself a
years so if you buy yourself a motherboard chances are probably going
motherboard chances are probably going to last you 10 years if not longer the
to last you 10 years if not longer the motherboard will break or fail long
motherboard will break or fail long before before the battery fails but
before before the battery fails but there are a couple of Duds out there I
there are a couple of Duds out there I have come across quite a few clients
have come across quite a few clients where the battery would fail literally
where the battery would fail literally within a year or two after this
within a year or two after this motherboard was bought and I suppose
motherboard was bought and I suppose this could be a matter of maybe it was
this could be a matter of maybe it was old stock in a factory maybe it's a d
old stock in a factory maybe it's a d maybe something else happened but on
maybe something else happened but on average the batteries will long exceed
average the batteries will long exceed the lifespan of the motherboard now due
the lifespan of the motherboard now due to that you'll probably end up having a
to that you'll probably end up having a lot of old failed motherboards or broken
lot of old failed motherboards or broken motherboards lying in a box somewhere
motherboards lying in a box somewhere all of which where the batteries are
all of which where the batteries are still perfectly fine and eventually one
still perfectly fine and eventually one day if you happen to come across a
day if you happen to come across a client or a user where the battery seems
client or a user where the battery seems to be the problem instead of having to
to be the problem instead of having to go and buy a new battery they're not
go and buy a new battery they're not expensive actually very inexpensive but
expensive actually very inexpensive but instead of having to go for the
instead of having to go for the inconvenience of having to go and buy a
inconvenience of having to go and buy a battery you could just go to that box of
battery you could just go to that box of yours which just got all these old
yours which just got all these old motherboards and just go and snatch one
motherboards and just go and snatch one of those old batteries and swap them and
of those old batteries and swap them and you're going to find it's going to work
you're going to find it's going to work just fine so what does it do it helps
just fine so what does it do it helps keep track of the system date and time
keep track of the system date and time if you've ever plugged out a desktop PC
if you've ever plugged out a desktop PC and let's say you kept kept it plugged
and let's say you kept kept it plugged out for a while a couple of days or
out for a while a couple of days or weeks and you plugged it back in you
weeks and you plugged it back in you probably would have noticed by now that
probably would have noticed by now that the date and the time is always correct
the date and the time is always correct for some strange reason how is it that
for some strange reason how is it that your machine always remembers the date
your machine always remembers the date and the time even though it was plugged
and the time even though it was plugged out that guys is because of this coin
out that guys is because of this coin sell seos battery it helps the buyers
sell seos battery it helps the buyers remember various things like the system
remember various things like the system date and time it helps you to remember
date and time it helps you to remember all kinds of other settings like your
all kinds of other settings like your bio password if you have one your system
bio password if you have one your system boot or so if you want to boot from your
boot or so if you want to boot from your hard drive first instead of a CD ROM or
hard drive first instead of a CD ROM or instead of a flash drive or instead of
instead of a flash drive or instead of the network it's going to help the
the network it's going to help the system remember those settings any bios
system remember those settings any bios related settings whether it be
related settings whether it be overclocking whatever the camos battery
overclocking whatever the camos battery helps the computer remember that so if
helps the computer remember that so if you've got some sort of configuration
you've got some sort of configuration settings or whatever in your bios and
settings or whatever in your bios and you're not sure how to going to reset
you're not sure how to going to reset them including the password I might add
them including the password I might add removing the coin cell battery will
removing the coin cell battery will force the BIOS to forget that so
force the BIOS to forget that so normally I would you remove it for about
normally I would you remove it for about 5 minutes it doesn't always forget
5 minutes it doesn't always forget immediately so if you have a BIOS
immediately so if you have a BIOS password and you want to bypass that
password and you want to bypass that maybe it's for legitimate reasons one
maybe it's for legitimate reasons one way would be to go remove the battery
way would be to go remove the battery wait about 5 to 10 minutes put it back
wait about 5 to 10 minutes put it back in and the next time you start that
in and the next time you start that piece you're going to see it's not going
piece you're going to see it's not going to know what the date is it's going to
to know what the date is it's going to have no clue what the time is it's not
have no clue what the time is it's not going to have a clue what the boot order
going to have a clue what the boot order is you will have to go and reconfigure
is you will have to go and reconfigure all of this stuff from scratch again but
all of this stuff from scratch again but that's a quite a nice easy way to go and
that's a quite a nice easy way to go and reset everything back to defaults if you
reset everything back to defaults if you make a boo boo along the line all right
make a boo boo along the line all right all right folks and then in terms of
all right folks and then in terms of expansion slots what is that I did very
expansion slots what is that I did very briefly show you guys earlier in one of
briefly show you guys earlier in one of those animation pictures I showed you
those animation pictures I showed you guys the PCI E and the PCI slot so I
guys the PCI E and the PCI slot so I will show you guys this again later in
will show you guys this again later in that other video I was talking about so
that other video I was talking about so just stay tuned for that but for the
just stay tuned for that but for the time being until we get there an
time being until we get there an expansion slot guys this is connection
expansion slot guys this is connection slots on the motherboard in which
slots on the motherboard in which adapter cards like your graphics card
adapter cards like your graphics card can be installed to extend a range of
can be installed to extend a range of functions the computer can perform now
functions the computer can perform now most of us including myself will
most of us including myself will probably only use this to go and add
probably only use this to go and add something like a graphics card let's
something like a graphics card let's face it that's the only thing that most
face it that's the only thing that most of us are going to be using these
of us are going to be using these expansion cards for is to go and add a
expansion cards for is to go and add a fancy fancy graphics card because maybe
fancy fancy graphics card because maybe you want to go and play games or maybe
you want to go and play games or maybe you need this graphics card to go and do
you need this graphics card to go and do something like rendering I actually use
something like rendering I actually use a fancy graphics card to do the
a fancy graphics card to do the rendering for these videos um it's in
rendering for these videos um it's in your interest to have a graphics card if
your interest to have a graphics card if you don't have a proper graphics card
you don't have a proper graphics card rendering these videos that we make on
rendering these videos that we make on YouTube is actually a bit of a mission
YouTube is actually a bit of a mission I'm not saying it's impossible but trust
I'm not saying it's impossible but trust me it's a mission especially if you have
me it's a mission especially if you have a video that's as long as these ones uh
a video that's as long as these ones uh normal onboard graphics cards really are
normal onboard graphics cards really are not good at rendering long form videos
not good at rendering long form videos like this one you need a proper graphics
like this one you need a proper graphics card otherwise your system is just going
card otherwise your system is just going to crash on you other expansion cards
to crash on you other expansion cards could be of course a TV card a WiFi card
could be of course a TV card a WiFi card a modem not that we're going to be using
a modem not that we're going to be using any of those I think realistically the
any of those I think realistically the only one that you guys might use is a
only one that you guys might use is a wireless card to give your desktop PC
wireless card to give your desktop PC wireless capability like a laptop now
wireless capability like a laptop now the new latest motherboards for gaming
the new latest motherboards for gaming PC and stuff they actually come with
PC and stuff they actually come with built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth believe it
built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth believe it or not but if you have a relatively old
or not but if you have a relatively old motherboard or one it's not such a high
motherboard or one it's not such a high spec motherboard then maybe you want
spec motherboard then maybe you want maybe you want Wi-Fi if you want Wi-Fi
maybe you want Wi-Fi if you want Wi-Fi you can just go and add a cheap
you can just go and add a cheap expansion card into one of those PCI
expansion card into one of those PCI slots and voila now I'll elaborate on
slots and voila now I'll elaborate on that a little bit later once I show you
that a little bit later once I show you guys that video I'll show you guys where
guys that video I'll show you guys where these PCI slots and graphics card slots
these PCI slots and graphics card slots are now these slots folks they've got a
are now these slots folks they've got a multibus design which allows different
multibus design which allows different expansion slots on a motherboard and
expansion slots on a motherboard and they do generally have support for all
they do generally have support for all the Technologies as well you'll find a
the Technologies as well you'll find a lot of them are actually backwards
lot of them are actually backwards compatible now for the time being before
compatible now for the time being before we move on to the bottom right of the
we move on to the bottom right of the motherboard uh and before I show you
motherboard uh and before I show you guys that video here's just the picture
guys that video here's just the picture again at the bottom left of the
again at the bottom left of the motherboard there is a better picture of
motherboard there is a better picture of the PCI E slot so if you look at the top
the PCI E slot so if you look at the top one there guys that says time 16 that is
one there guys that says time 16 that is your PCI E slot which we use for the
your PCI E slot which we use for the graphics cards even though it says pcie
graphics cards even though it says pcie you get different speed you get
you get different speed you get different versions you get
different versions you get pcie3 PCI E4 pci5 I think five is
pcie3 PCI E4 pci5 I think five is currently latest version so depending on
currently latest version so depending on the version you've got that'll dictate
the version you've got that'll dictate which graphics cards and stuff you can
which graphics cards and stuff you can go and run normally the newer ports are
go and run normally the newer ports are backwards compartible so if you've got
backwards compartible so if you've got an Old Port it's not forwards
an Old Port it's not forwards compartible but the newer ports are
compartible but the newer ports are backwards compatible so the new stuff is
backwards compatible so the new stuff is always backwards compatible you'll find
always backwards compatible you'll find this one looks like it's got a second
this one looks like it's got a second graphics card slot as well which is an
graphics card slot as well which is an old slower one so usually most of these
old slower one so usually most of these other slots will normally be white and
other slots will normally be white and color that's not set in stone in any way
color that's not set in stone in any way guys there can actually be any color the
guys there can actually be any color the rainbow but these other slots will
rainbow but these other slots will usually be white on most motherboards
usually be white on most motherboards and we just refer to them as normal PCI
and we just refer to them as normal PCI slots uh you'll normally see them put
slots uh you'll normally see them put like a little x x 4 there which is to
like a little x x 4 there which is to indicate the speed and you can see
indicate the speed and you can see obviously there those small ones the
obviously there those small ones the times one one those are the small little
times one one those are the small little expansion cards now guys this whole
expansion cards now guys this whole motherboard concept that I'm explaining
motherboard concept that I'm explaining to you guys and show you guys this is in
to you guys and show you guys this is in fact questions in exam it's not just a
fact questions in exam it's not just a question exam it's a pbq in exam if you
question exam it's a pbq in exam if you don't know what a pbq is that is short
don't know what a pbq is that is short for performance-based question it's a
for performance-based question it's a simulation now if you guys don't know
simulation now if you guys don't know most of your questions in A+ exam will
most of your questions in A+ exam will be Theory based and multiple choice
be Theory based and multiple choice based they will ask you a question and
based they will ask you a question and you'll have a choice between four
you'll have a choice between four possible answers of which you can
possible answers of which you can usually just choose one after you've
usually just choose one after you've chosen your your answer of choice you'll
chosen your your answer of choice you'll just move on to the next question now
just move on to the next question now you get a couple other different kinds
you get a couple other different kinds of questions one of which is a pbq
of questions one of which is a pbq they'll give you something practical to
they'll give you something practical to do now this is a dragon drop pbq so in
do now this is a dragon drop pbq so in the exam should you be one of the
the exam should you be one of the Unfortunate Souls that gets this
Unfortunate Souls that gets this specific simulation this is not
specific simulation this is not guaranteed they'll give you a picture of
guaranteed they'll give you a picture of a motherboard kind of like a cartoon
a motherboard kind of like a cartoon motherboard like the one I've been
motherboard like the one I've been giving you guys and on the left hand
giving you guys and on the left hand side you'll see a list of components
side you'll see a list of components CPU Ram you know graphics card that
CPU Ram you know graphics card that kinds of stuff on the right hand side on
kinds of stuff on the right hand side on the motherboard they'll have empty slots
the motherboard they'll have empty slots or empty name slots for each component
or empty name slots for each component and your job is going to be to go and
and your job is going to be to go and drag the correct name to the correct
drag the correct name to the correct component
component so on the left hand side you might see
so on the left hand side you might see the name CPU your job would then be to
the name CPU your job would then be to go and drag the name CPU to the correct
go and drag the name CPU to the correct place on the motherboard to indicated
place on the motherboard to indicated you know where the CPU is so it's very
you know where the CPU is so it's very important you know where what on the
important you know where what on the motherboard goes not just from an exam
motherboard goes not just from an exam perspective because they're going to ask
perspective because they're going to ask you about an exam but also because of
you about an exam but also because of the field guys you're probably going to
the field guys you're probably going to have to go and know how to go on
have to go and know how to go on troubleshoot machines and how to go on
troubleshoot machines and how to go on build machines so never mind the exam
build machines so never mind the exam this is something you guys do need to
this is something you guys do need to know in fact guys so please ensure you
know in fact guys so please ensure you know where what on the motherboard goes
know where what on the motherboard goes if you don't feel comfortable with this
if you don't feel comfortable with this I would definitely encourage you guys to
I would definitely encourage you guys to go and rewatch this video maybe not the
go and rewatch this video maybe not the whole video but at least the motherboard
whole video but at least the motherboard section of the video the part where I
section of the video the part where I explain where what goes on the
explain where what goes on the motherboard please make sure you know
motherboard please make sure you know that for the exam these pbqs do count
that for the exam these pbqs do count for an insane amount of marks in the
for an insane amount of marks in the exam guys should you get the pbq wrong
exam guys should you get the pbq wrong there's a very real chance you can fail
there's a very real chance you can fail the exam all right so I'm moving you
the exam all right so I'm moving you guys on to the bottom right of the
guys on to the bottom right of the motherboard storage bus or should I say
motherboard storage bus or should I say sat and IDE now IDE guys is also known
sat and IDE now IDE guys is also known as PARTA p a that is the old concept
as PARTA p a that is the old concept hard drives and Optical drives and stuff
hard drives and Optical drives and stuff if you look there at the top there of
if you look there at the top there of this picture I no it's at the bottom
this picture I no it's at the bottom right the motherboard but if you look
right the motherboard but if you look there at the top there is an example of
there at the top there is an example of an old IDE E port that actually looks
an old IDE E port that actually looks like it's going to be for a floppy desk
like it's going to be for a floppy desk drive because of how small it is and if
drive because of how small it is and if I look just to the left there it looks
I look just to the left there it looks like it's for either a hard drive or
like it's for either a hard drive or something else I can't really see in
something else I can't really see in this picture but that's more or L what
this picture but that's more or L what you can expect an IDE port to look like
you can expect an IDE port to look like it's going to have a lot of pins going
it's going to have a lot of pins going to be a very wide Port like that that's
to be a very wide Port like that that's for the old hard drives and Optical
for the old hard drives and Optical drives which we don't get anymore those
drives which we don't get anymore those are Legacy they're basically extinct
are Legacy they're basically extinct just below it you can see there's the
just below it you can see there's the SAA ports these are facing sideways
SAA ports these are facing sideways because it's in line of the graphics
because it's in line of the graphics card and if this person happens to slot
card and if this person happens to slot in a huge graphics card that graphics
in a huge graphics card that graphics card is going to hover over those SATA
card is going to hover over those SATA ports which means you're not going to be
ports which means you're not going to be able to use them if you're going to try
able to use them if you're going to try and get a cable into them it's not going
and get a cable into them it's not going to work if you have to put the cable in
to work if you have to put the cable in from the top instead some clever Oak
from the top instead some clever Oak said you know what what if we go and
said you know what what if we go and slide these cables in from the side and
slide these cables in from the side and they did just that now the motherboard
they did just that now the motherboard I'm going to show you guys later
I'm going to show you guys later practically that one the S ports are
practically that one the S ports are facing upwards instead of sideways but
facing upwards instead of sideways but in that video you will see the SAA ports
in that video you will see the SAA ports are not completely in line with the
are not completely in line with the graphics card so it's not the worst
graphics card so it's not the worst thing one of them is kind of in line you
thing one of them is kind of in line you know so it's a bit of an issue but
know so it's a bit of an issue but there's quite a lot of them that's still
there's quite a lot of them that's still open so it's not the worst of things all
open so it's not the worst of things all right folks and then here we've got
right folks and then here we've got other motherboard connectors you would
other motherboard connectors you would remember earlier I told you guys when I
remember earlier I told you guys when I showed you guys the front panel
showed you guys the front panel connectors the USB the mic in the audio
connectors the USB the mic in the audio out you know that kind of stuff I told
out you know that kind of stuff I told you guys those cables inside a case are
you guys those cables inside a case are dangling loose when you buy yourself a
dangling loose when you buy yourself a new empty shell a new empty case it's
new empty shell a new empty case it's got a bunch of cables dangling loose
got a bunch of cables dangling loose which is for your USB in the front your
which is for your USB in the front your audio your mic and stuff like that now
audio your mic and stuff like that now the audio cable usually 9 out of 10
the audio cable usually 9 out of 10 times has audio written on it very
times has audio written on it very clearly and on the motherboard somewhere
clearly and on the motherboard somewhere at the bottom right or the bottom left
at the bottom right or the bottom left it's got an audio port most motherboards
it's got an audio port most motherboards you'll notice actually has two audio
you'll notice actually has two audio ports so there'll be somewhere at the
ports so there'll be somewhere at the bottom right or somewhere at the bottom
bottom right or somewhere at the bottom left it can actually be right or left
left it can actually be right or left and on the port it clearly says audio
and on the port it clearly says audio audio one and audio 2 the same can be
audio one and audio 2 the same can be said about USB on the cable from the
said about USB on the cable from the case N9 out of 10 times very clearly on
case N9 out of 10 times very clearly on the cable it'll say USB and on the
the cable it'll say USB and on the motherboard there's normally two USB
motherboard there's normally two USB ports
ports USB 1 and USB 2 now for both the audio
USB 1 and USB 2 now for both the audio and the USB it does not matter which one
and the USB it does not matter which one you connected to as long as you connect
you connected to as long as you connect audio to any one of the two audio ports
audio to any one of the two audio ports it will work as long as you connect the
it will work as long as you connect the USB to any one of the two USB ports
USB to any one of the two USB ports which are clearly labeled on the
which are clearly labeled on the motherboard it will work now at first
motherboard it will work now at first glance what you will notice is the audio
glance what you will notice is the audio and the USB cables look the same the
and the USB cables look the same the ports look the same you never mind the
ports look the same you never mind the naming you know luckily we've got naming
naming you know luckily we've got naming so thank goodness for that but if you
so thank goodness for that but if you look very closely guys you will see each
look very closely guys you will see each of them has a pin missing a different
of them has a pin missing a different pin so at first glance it looks like
pin so at first glance it looks like each of these has 10 pins two rows of
each of these has 10 pins two rows of five pins each but if you look very
five pins each but if you look very closely you'll see the audio has a
closely you'll see the audio has a random PIN missing out of those 10 pins
random PIN missing out of those 10 pins and the USB one has a different pin
and the USB one has a different pin missing as well but it's not in the same
missing as well but it's not in the same location so if the naming on a cable and
location so if the naming on a cable and the motherboard was not good enough for
the motherboard was not good enough for you guys you can also go and verify this
you guys you can also go and verify this by looking at the pins that's missing so
by looking at the pins that's missing so if you look at the audio jack on the the
if you look at the audio jack on the the motherboard you'll see one pin is
motherboard you'll see one pin is missing and if you look at the connector
missing and if you look at the connector that has to plug in there you'll see one
that has to plug in there you'll see one of the ports one of the little holes is
of the ports one of the little holes is blanked out which is going to corespond
blanked out which is going to corespond with the missing pin now before we move
with the missing pin now before we move on to the next topic guys and before I
on to the next topic guys and before I show you guys that video because that's
show you guys that video because that's what's going to be next up the front
what's going to be next up the front panel headers there way on the right
panel headers there way on the right that is almost always going to be at the
that is almost always going to be at the bottom right it's just going to be a
bottom right it's just going to be a question of where at the bottom right
question of where at the bottom right you will find this this is the part that
you will find this this is the part that scares most people it is the most
scares most people it is the most intimidating part for most people people
intimidating part for most people people now fortunately for you guys these four
now fortunately for you guys these four cables there's four cables by the way
cables there's four cables by the way that have to go and connect there
that have to go and connect there they're very clearly labeled and three
they're very clearly labeled and three out of four motherboards are also very
out of four motherboards are also very clearly labeled now each of these four
clearly labeled now each of these four cables are going to go and connect to
cables are going to go and connect to two pins that's normally on average
two pins that's normally on average going to be about nine pins sticking out
going to be about nine pins sticking out but it might be more but there will be
but it might be more but there will be at least nine pins like I said could be
at least nine pins like I said could be more but there'll be at least nine pins
more but there'll be at least nine pins each of the four connectors can only
each of the four connectors can only connect to two of these pins so there's
connect to two of these pins so there's always going to be a a spare pin if you
always going to be a a spare pin if you want to call it that so one of these
want to call it that so one of these connector cables coming from your case
connector cables coming from your case will normally say something along the
will normally say something along the lines of power switch it'll say power s
lines of power switch it'll say power s w for power switch or it will outright
w for power switch or it will outright say power switch but something along the
say power switch but something along the lines of power switch and on the
lines of power switch and on the motherboard next to those pins it'll
motherboard next to those pins it'll often also say power switch or power SW
often also say power switch or power SW for power switch now folks if you're not
for power switch now folks if you're not sure on the motherboard which pins it's
sure on the motherboard which pins it's normally the top two right ones so if
normally the top two right ones so if you look at the image I've got there
you look at the image I've got there that will be the bottom of the
that will be the bottom of the motherboard the pin connectors the front
motherboard the pin connectors the front panel connectors are the bottom right
panel connectors are the bottom right now looking at from that angle the top
now looking at from that angle the top right pins the top two right ones those
right pins the top two right ones those are normally power pins the top two left
are normally power pins the top two left pins are the power LED pins the bottom
pins are the power LED pins the bottom two left pins are normally hard drive
two left pins are normally hard drive LED pins and the bottom two right pins
LED pins and the bottom two right pins will normally be the reset button so I
will normally be the reset button so I would suggest maybe starting at the
would suggest maybe starting at the bottom left two pins way at the bottom
bottom left two pins way at the bottom left those two pins or hard drive LED
left those two pins or hard drive LED HDD space
HDD space LED and then the bottom two right ones
LED and then the bottom two right ones you know so on the right way at the
you know so on the right way at the bottom that will be the reset button it
bottom that will be the reset button it will say reset switch or restart button
will say reset switch or restart button something along those lines but normally
something along those lines but normally they'll say reset switch so reset switch
they'll say reset switch so reset switch is the bottom two right pins normally it
is the bottom two right pins normally it will probably be a blue cable in most
will probably be a blue cable in most cases not guaranteed but from experience
cases not guaranteed but from experience I can tell you it's usually going to be
I can tell you it's usually going to be blue the top two right pins directly
blue the top two right pins directly above the reset switch is the power
above the reset switch is the power switch so that's normally going to be a
switch so that's normally going to be a red Cable in most cases also not set in
red Cable in most cases also not set in stone is just usually and the top two
stone is just usually and the top two left pins are usually power LED so where
left pins are usually power LED so where I've told you guys where these spins are
I've told you guys where these spins are are not sit in stone it's just usually
are not sit in stone it's just usually from experience those pins are for those
from experience those pins are for those things I've just elaborated on but just
things I've just elaborated on but just to confirm I would say check on the
to confirm I would say check on the motherboard you'll find it three out of
motherboard you'll find it three out of four motherboards on the motherboard
four motherboards on the motherboard right next to the pins it'll tell you
right next to the pins it'll tell you which pins are for what if you're still
which pins are for what if you're still not sure sure you can go on a search on
not sure sure you can go on a search on Google or whatever for that
Google or whatever for that motherboard's make and model and it'll
motherboard's make and model and it'll very clearly indicate which pins Are For
very clearly indicate which pins Are For What and then you can just go and
What and then you can just go and confirm now the power switch guys that's
confirm now the power switch guys that's just for the power button the front so
just for the power button the front so in reality if you were to go and take a
in reality if you were to go and take a very small flat screwdriver and you were
very small flat screwdriver and you were to go and touch those two pins where the
to go and touch those two pins where the power connector you know supposed to go
power connector you know supposed to go and connect the PC would actually start
and connect the PC would actually start I would not encourage you to go and do
I would not encourage you to go and do that because you know on some
that because you know on some motherboards it's very sensitive and if
motherboards it's very sensitive and if you go do that you'll actually blow the
you go do that you'll actually blow the motherboard but if you have an old
motherboard but if you have an old motherboard you're willing to sacrifice
motherboard you're willing to sacrifice and if you want to show off in front of
and if you want to show off in front of your friends and family you can go and
your friends and family you can go and do that and you'll see the PC is
do that and you'll see the PC is actually going to start assuming it
actually going to start assuming it doesn't blow the motherboard the reset
doesn't blow the motherboard the reset switch is for restart button mean it
switch is for restart button mean it speaks for itself the HDD LED is the
speaks for itself the HDD LED is the hard drive light now some of the older
hard drive light now some of the older computer cases have got some sort of
computer cases have got some sort of light in the front it can either be
light in the front it can either be orange or green and depending on how
orange or green and depending on how active your hard drive was back in the
active your hard drive was back in the day this light would flash accordingly
day this light would flash accordingly so if you're doing an antivirus scan or
so if you're doing an antivirus scan or an installation or you're copying or
an installation or you're copying or cutting something huge this light would
cutting something huge this light would basically stay consistent just stay
basically stay consistent just stay solid it will stay on but if you're
solid it will stay on but if you're doing a small copy or something you know
doing a small copy or something you know lightweight on your hard drive it'll
lightweight on your hard drive it'll just flicker a little bit that's
just flicker a little bit that's basically all it does it's got no real
basically all it does it's got no real significance my opinion is you don't
significance my opinion is you don't even need to go and plug that in and
even need to go and plug that in and then the the power LED is all the lights
then the the power LED is all the lights in the front of the case so some of the
in the front of the case so some of the older gaming cases and stuff or the
older gaming cases and stuff or the normal office pieces they've got lights
normal office pieces they've got lights in the front so if you go and press the
in the front so if you go and press the power button you might find that the
power button you might find that the power button got some sort of little
power button got some sort of little light that'll come on or there'll be one
light that'll come on or there'll be one or two little lights in the front of the
or two little lights in the front of the case coming on just to indicate that the
case coming on just to indicate that the user that the machine is actually on
user that the machine is actually on with gaming computers we obviously don't
with gaming computers we obviously don't need that because you've got all kinds
need that because you've got all kinds of fans you can see them spinning and
of fans you can see them spinning and they probably have RGB in them which
they probably have RGB in them which means that you've got fancy colored
means that you've got fancy colored lights in them and all that so you can
lights in them and all that so you can very clearly see and hear of a gaming PC
very clearly see and hear of a gaming PC when it's on but if it's an old you know
when it's on but if it's an old you know normal office computer yeah if you press
normal office computer yeah if you press the power button unless you hear the
the power button unless you hear the fans you might not know that it's on so
fans you might not know that it's on so if the power button could at least light
if the power button could at least light up in some sort of way that's a nice
up in some sort of way that's a nice indicator for the user to show hey look
indicator for the user to show hey look this machine is on and that's basically
this machine is on and that's basically what the idea was right fol and before
what the idea was right fol and before we move on to the next topic I want to
we move on to the next topic I want to show you guys on the real motherboard
show you guys on the real motherboard what it actually looks like when we go
what it actually looks like when we go look at these components now what I'm
look at these components now what I'm going to show you guys is an old ATX
going to show you guys is an old ATX motherboard so it's got some old you
motherboard so it's got some old you know ports on it like IDE ports and
know ports on it like IDE ports and whatnot so it's not the worst
whatnot so it's not the worst motherboard but it's definitely not the
motherboard but it's definitely not the latest motherboard unfortunately but it
latest motherboard unfortunately but it should still give you a fairly good idea
should still give you a fairly good idea of you know what you what you're in for
of you know what you what you're in for and that's the kind of stuff they'll ask
and that's the kind of stuff they'll ask you in the exam the motherboard I'm
you in the exam the motherboard I'm about to show you is the kind of
about to show you is the kind of motherboard you can expect them to ask
motherboard you can expect them to ask you about in the exam it's the same
you about in the exam it's the same ports they will ask you about an exam so
ports they will ask you about an exam so that being said let me switch over to
that being said let me switch over to that motherboard a few moments later all
that motherboard a few moments later all right folks here is that motherboard I
right folks here is that motherboard I spoke of I'm going to start you guys of
spoke of I'm going to start you guys of the CPU there is the CPU socket this is
the CPU there is the CPU socket this is for Intel CPUs there is your RAM slots
for Intel CPUs there is your RAM slots I've got two of them some might have
I've got two of them some might have four slots with the ram here is your
four slots with the ram here is your graphics card slot it says PCI E and
graphics card slot it says PCI E and then here is your PCI E slots for Wi-Fi
then here is your PCI E slots for Wi-Fi cards modems and that kinds of stuff
cards modems and that kinds of stuff here at the bottom there is your PARTA
here at the bottom there is your PARTA ports left is for floppy right hand side
ports left is for floppy right hand side here you can see that's for hard drives
here you can see that's for hard drives and stuff those are extinct by the way
and stuff those are extinct by the way and then here on the right hand side
and then here on the right hand side there's your s ports mine are facing
there's your s ports mine are facing upwards some motherboards face sideways
upwards some motherboards face sideways but mine is not in the way of the
but mine is not in the way of the graphics card so it's not an issue here
graphics card so it's not an issue here at the bottom left let me just zoom in
at the bottom left let me just zoom in there's your front panel audio you can
there's your front panel audio you can see mine's purple but the color doesn't
see mine's purple but the color doesn't matter and then here on the right hand
matter and then here on the right hand side let me just get it into Focus if
side let me just get it into Focus if you look at those yellow ports USB one
you look at those yellow ports USB one and USB 2 so this motherboard has two
and USB 2 so this motherboard has two ports for USB it does not matter which
ports for USB it does not matter which one you going connect to if you only has
one you going connect to if you only has one cable some motherboards will have
one cable some motherboards will have two USB ports some will have one there's
two USB ports some will have one there's the front panel those little connectors
the front panel those little connectors I spoke of with the start button restart
I spoke of with the start button restart button and LED lights and stuff the one
button and LED lights and stuff the one that gives people you know fear and all
that gives people you know fear and all that and know way here at the top guys
that and know way here at the top guys there is where you're going to go and
there is where you're going to go and connect your CPUs fan or your liquid
connect your CPUs fan or your liquid cooling system so it says CPU fan or
cooling system so it says CPU fan or liquid cooling system here is where
liquid cooling system here is where you're going to get go connect your
you're going to get go connect your cpu's power that's a P4 some
cpu's power that's a P4 some motherboards need way more and it'll be
motherboards need way more and it'll be here at the po top left hand side let me
here at the po top left hand side let me open this CPU latch for you
open this CPU latch for you guys I'm going to go and open it up for
guys I'm going to go and open it up for you guys and I'm going to go and install
you guys and I'm going to go and install the CPU I'll just briefly show you guys
the CPU I'll just briefly show you guys so generally A good rule of fun would be
so generally A good rule of fun would be to hover the CPU over the CPU port and
to hover the CPU over the CPU port and to check where on the size of the CPU
to check where on the size of the CPU you see a little holes and just inside
you see a little holes and just inside the port you just go and check with
the port you just go and check with little pieces of plastic sticking out
little pieces of plastic sticking out alternatively you can go check for a
alternatively you can go check for a missing pin inside the hole and you just
missing pin inside the hole and you just go look for a little copper Arrow there
go look for a little copper Arrow there is a little copper Arrow the copper
is a little copper Arrow the copper Arrow will always po point point towards
Arrow will always po point point towards the missing pin inside the port uh but
the missing pin inside the port uh but the easiest way for most people just to
the easiest way for most people just to hover the CPU over the hole and uh I'll
hover the CPU over the hole and uh I'll get it into Focus for you guys now as
get it into Focus for you guys now as soon as you hover it over the hole you
soon as you hover it over the hole you just check where the missing holes in
just check where the missing holes in the CPU are and where they align little
the CPU are and where they align little pieces of plastic sticking out on the
pieces of plastic sticking out on the sides you can see mine bottom left
sides you can see mine bottom left bottom right I've got little holes in
bottom right I've got little holes in the CPU you can see there if I bring it
the CPU you can see there if I bring it closer bottom left bottom right there's
closer bottom left bottom right there's little holes in the CPU and inside this
little holes in the CPU and inside this hole if you check closely left and right
hole if you check closely left and right at the bottom there's little pieces of
at the bottom there's little pieces of plastic sticking out so all I need to do
plastic sticking out so all I need to do is just hover it gently Over the Hole
is just hover it gently Over the Hole gently drop the sucker into place there
gently drop the sucker into place there we go going to close the latch
we go going to close the latch now there we go I close the latch close
now there we go I close the latch close the lever hook it into place all it's
the lever hook it into place all it's have to do now is to apply thermal paste
have to do now is to apply thermal paste or thermal compound on top of the CPU
or thermal compound on top of the CPU then you're going to go put your heat
then you're going to go put your heat sink or your liquid cooling system on
sink or your liquid cooling system on top of it and um let me just put some
top of it and um let me just put some RAM chips in here as well so the RAM
RAM chips in here as well so the RAM chips guys you'll see they can only go
chips guys you'll see they can only go in one way assuming you've got the right
in one way assuming you've got the right Ram there's a little piece of plastic
Ram there's a little piece of plastic there you can see the hole that
there you can see the hole that basically confirms that you've got your
basically confirms that you've got your RAM chip in correctly if you've got the
RAM chip in correctly if you've got the wrong way around it's not going to go in
wrong way around it's not going to go in there's a little hole inside the ram
there's a little hole inside the ram chip as well ination so I'm going to
chip as well ination so I'm going to hover it there for you guys again you
hover it there for you guys again you can see this one's the wrong way around
can see this one's the wrong way around it's not going to work you see it's
it's not going to work you see it's misaligned so I'm going to turn this
misaligned so I'm going to turn this around there we go it aligns so now I'm
around there we go it aligns so now I'm going to shove it in there while it's
going to shove it in there while it's open you can see on the two top sides
open you can see on the two top sides top and bottom it's open you just press
top and bottom it's open you just press down it's going to click into place
down it's going to click into place automatically you can hear it and feel
automatically you can hear it and feel it clicking into place on both sides and
it clicking into place on both sides and that's it guys as simple as that more on
that's it guys as simple as that more on this later one eternity
this later one eternity later right guys the next topic as you
later right guys the next topic as you can see storage connector types so I've
can see storage connector types so I've got a bit of a picture for you guys here
got a bit of a picture for you guys here of a normal old school hard drive so I
of a normal old school hard drive so I suppose you could say this is the old
suppose you could say this is the old mechanical hard drive so some of you
mechanical hard drive so some of you guys might know it and if you look there
guys might know it and if you look there at the connectors that should look
at the connectors that should look familiar to you guys earlier we spoke
familiar to you guys earlier we spoke about the cables that you would go and
about the cables that you would go and plug into into a hard drive I showed you
plug into into a hard drive I showed you guys the data cable and I showed you
guys the data cable and I showed you guys the power cable would normally go
guys the power cable would normally go and connect to the hard drive I told you
and connect to the hard drive I told you guys the other end of this dat cable
guys the other end of this dat cable would go and connect to your motherboard
would go and connect to your motherboard and the other end of that power cable
and the other end of that power cable would obviously be connected to your
would obviously be connected to your power supply if you don't remember what
power supply if you don't remember what these cables look like there's a bit of
these cables look like there's a bit of reminder for you guys so this is for
reminder for you guys so this is for your hard drives you going and put you
your hard drives you going and put you know randomly loose somewhere in your
know randomly loose somewhere in your case these are however becoming less and
case these are however becoming less and less common nowadays people are more
less common nowadays people are more keen on using normal solar state drives
keen on using normal solar state drives nowadays or they'll go and use one of
nowadays or they'll go and use one of those hard drives that looks like a car
those hard drives that looks like a car that you go and slide into your
that you go and slide into your motherboard we normally slide them into
motherboard we normally slide them into the M2 slots if you guys know what those
the M2 slots if you guys know what those are now if you guys are not sure what
are now if you guys are not sure what the M2 slot is uh let me show you guys a
the M2 slot is uh let me show you guys a more modern motherboard so here is a
more modern motherboard so here is a picture of um the motherboard I've got
picture of um the motherboard I've got in one of my PCS at home so I built a
in one of my PCS at home so I built a new gaming PC here for one of my kids
new gaming PC here for one of my kids and this is the MSI Pro
and this is the MSI Pro b650 - S Wi-Fi motherboard it's a very
b650 - S Wi-Fi motherboard it's a very modern motherboard it's not a too high
modern motherboard it's not a too high spec motherboard but it's a decent entry
spec motherboard but it's a decent entry level budget motherboard for gaming piec
level budget motherboard for gaming piec now this is an AMD motherboard guys this
now this is an AMD motherboard guys this is for AMD CPUs it's an am5 so it's
is for AMD CPUs it's an am5 so it's compartible with some of the latest AMD
compartible with some of the latest AMD CPUs there so the CPU I put in in case
CPUs there so the CPU I put in in case anyone is curious for my kids is the
anyone is curious for my kids is the ryzen 9800 X 3D chip which is the
ryzen 9800 X 3D chip which is the highest spec gaming CPU you can get at
highest spec gaming CPU you can get at this point in time so it's it's just
this point in time so it's it's just really really a top dog so obviously by
really really a top dog so obviously by the time you guys watch this video
the time you guys watch this video depending on when you watch it it might
depending on when you watch it it might no longer be the top CPU because these
no longer be the top CPU because these manufacturers like Intel and AMD and all
manufacturers like Intel and AMD and all of them are obviously constantly
of them are obviously constantly developing releasing new stuff but at
developing releasing new stuff but at the time of the makinging of this video
the time of the makinging of this video this was currently the most powerful
this was currently the most powerful gaming CPU on the market was the AMD
gaming CPU on the market was the AMD 9800 x3d with it's gaming cach and all
9800 x3d with it's gaming cach and all that so first of all guys this is a bit
that so first of all guys this is a bit of an overview of a motherboard if you
of an overview of a motherboard if you look here at the bottom guys bottom left
look here at the bottom guys bottom left there's two m.2 slots one of them is
there's two m.2 slots one of them is beneath this heat sink yes that's a heat
beneath this heat sink yes that's a heat sink it's removable and the other one is
sink it's removable and the other one is here at the bottom it's it's kind of
here at the bottom it's it's kind of open the one that's underneath the heat
open the one that's underneath the heat sink is because it's going to be
sink is because it's going to be directly below the graphics card and as
directly below the graphics card and as you guys probably know a graphics card
you guys probably know a graphics card can get quite hot so this one's got a
can get quite hot so this one's got a heat sink but a lot of these little hard
heat sink but a lot of these little hard drives you go and slide into these slots
drives you go and slide into these slots they actually come with own little heat
they actually come with own little heat sink some of them and if I want to I can
sink some of them and if I want to I can go put a second hard drive in here so at
go put a second hard drive in here so at the moment I only have one which is
the moment I only have one which is underneath that heat sink and um if I
underneath that heat sink and um if I really want to I can go put a second one
really want to I can go put a second one in if I want to for the kids as well in
in if I want to for the kids as well in terms of the CPU guys you can see
terms of the CPU guys you can see there's the CPU slot there it's got a
there's the CPU slot there it's got a plastic cover so it doesn't matter if
plastic cover so it doesn't matter if this is an Intel CPU or an MD CPU the
this is an Intel CPU or an MD CPU the motherboard normally has a plastic cover
motherboard normally has a plastic cover so you're going to open that latch first
so you're going to open that latch first like I showed you guys um earlier in
like I showed you guys um earlier in real time you're going to go and drop
real time you're going to go and drop your CPU in there very gently after
your CPU in there very gently after you've confirmed it's aligned correctly
you've confirmed it's aligned correctly you're going to close it you don't even
you're going to close it you don't even have to bother that plastic clap it'll
have to bother that plastic clap it'll automatically shoot off you know trust
automatically shoot off you know trust me it will in terms of Random Access
me it will in terms of Random Access Memory we showed you guys how to go and
Memory we showed you guys how to go and insert it you can see on this
insert it you can see on this motherboard there is four slots and
motherboard there is four slots and we're not going to start the slot
we're not going to start the slot closest to the CPU instead we're going
closest to the CPU instead we're going to start at the second closest slot to
to start at the second closest slot to the CPU so that will be the second one
the CPU so that will be the second one from the left we're going to start of
from the left we're going to start of that slot first and then the second ramp
that slot first and then the second ramp chip goes into the last slot there way
chip goes into the last slot there way on the right so we're going to go and
on the right so we're going to go and put the RAM chips into slot two and Slot
put the RAM chips into slot two and Slot four which is exactly what I did with
four which is exactly what I did with this motherboard for the kids I put Ram
this motherboard for the kids I put Ram into slot two and Slot four I didn't put
into slot two and Slot four I didn't put in too much RAM I didn't put in just 52
in too much RAM I didn't put in just 52 gigs because everybody puts in 52 gigs I
gigs because everybody puts in 52 gigs I put in 48 gigs I probably could have
put in 48 gigs I probably could have gone and put in two sticks of 32 gigs
gone and put in two sticks of 32 gigs Rams each this motherboard does support
Rams each this motherboard does support up to 192 2 gigs of RAM if I really want
up to 192 2 gigs of RAM if I really want to but I don't need more than that I
to but I don't need more than that I didn't want to put in just 32 gigs
didn't want to put in just 32 gigs because that's going to get outdated
because that's going to get outdated quite quick so I I pushed them a little
quite quick so I I pushed them a little bit more I put in two chips of 24 gigs
bit more I put in two chips of 24 gigs each so it's got 48 gigs which is two
each so it's got 48 gigs which is two sticks and that's in slot two and Slot
sticks and that's in slot two and Slot four respectively so this motherboard if
four respectively so this motherboard if you look there I know you guys can see
you look there I know you guys can see clear in this image but there's actually
clear in this image but there's actually a picture that shows you which slots to
a picture that shows you which slots to fill in first now for you guys it might
fill in first now for you guys it might be blurry but if you were to zoom in on
be blurry but if you were to zoom in on this picture it actually would have
this picture it actually would have shown you there slot two and Slot four
shown you there slot two and Slot four should be filled first it actually tells
should be filled first it actually tells you which slots to go and fill first
you which slots to go and fill first mean how cool is that as for PCI Express
mean how cool is that as for PCI Express this motherboard has got two slots there
this motherboard has got two slots there is the first one which is the main one
is the first one which is the main one which is the only one that most people
which is the only one that most people are going to be using way here at the
are going to be using way here at the bottom is the secondary graphics card
bottom is the secondary graphics card slot yeah that's the second one you'll
slot yeah that's the second one you'll notice there's no normal PCI slots
notice there's no normal PCI slots besides the small little mini one here
besides the small little mini one here which is the times one um PCI slot it
which is the times one um PCI slot it depends on what you want to do but a lot
depends on what you want to do but a lot of the new mod motherboards these days
of the new mod motherboards these days they don't come out with normal PCI
they don't come out with normal PCI slots they don't instead they only come
slots they don't instead they only come out of PCI E slots if you want a PCI
out of PCI E slots if you want a PCI slot a normal one you're going to
slot a normal one you're going to probably have to pay extra for that
probably have to pay extra for that because nobody wants that um so yeah in
because nobody wants that um so yeah in terms of PCI this one only has this
terms of PCI this one only has this small little mini one here at the bottom
small little mini one here at the bottom the one that's times one the seos
the one that's times one the seos battery you can see on this motherboard
battery you can see on this motherboard is at the bottom right the picture I
is at the bottom right the picture I showed you guys earlier that little
showed you guys earlier that little animation the seos battery was where it
animation the seos battery was where it was at the bottom left but this one one
was at the bottom left but this one one is at the bottom right so I told you
is at the bottom right so I told you guys it can either be at the bottom left
guys it can either be at the bottom left or the bottom right I suppose in reality
or the bottom right I suppose in reality it can probably be anywhere on the
it can probably be anywhere on the motherboard but almost all motherboards
motherboard but almost all motherboards you'll always find the seos battery at
you'll always find the seos battery at the bottom left or the bottom right as
the bottom left or the bottom right as for the front panel headers there they
for the front panel headers there they are there the bottom right that's the
are there the bottom right that's the front panel headers guys it's usually
front panel headers guys it's usually going to be somewhere in the vicinity of
going to be somewhere in the vicinity of the bottom right of the motherboard as
the bottom right of the motherboard as for the power connect this here on the
for the power connect this here on the right hand side almost always on all
right hand side almost always on all motherboards here on the right hand side
motherboards here on the right hand side you will find your 24 pin motherboard
you will find your 24 pin motherboard connector that is the main power for
connector that is the main power for your motherboard guys so on your power
your motherboard guys so on your power supply you'll find only one such
supply you'll find only one such connector it's got 24 pins you always
connector it's got 24 pins you always hook it here on the right hand side as
hook it here on the right hand side as for the CPU power earlier I showed you
for the CPU power earlier I showed you guys where the CPU power was it was
guys where the CPU power was it was directly below the CPU or right next to
directly below the CPU or right next to the CPU it was a P4 connected of only
the CPU it was a P4 connected of only four pins now that's the old
four pins now that's the old motherboards the newer ones like this
motherboards the newer ones like this one you'll find that the top left
one you'll find that the top left they'll have one or more connector this
they'll have one or more connector this one has got two eight pin connectors it
one has got two eight pin connectors it needs a lot of juice for the CPU because
needs a lot of juice for the CPU because this CPU is obviously one of the most
this CPU is obviously one of the most powerful CPUs get on the market so for
powerful CPUs get on the market so for all these powerful CPUs you need a lot
all these powerful CPUs you need a lot of juice so those two connectors at top
of juice so those two connectors at top left that's for the CPU guys and it goes
left that's for the CPU guys and it goes about saying you're going to need a
about saying you're going to need a special power supply that's that has
special power supply that's that has these connectors not all power supplies
these connectors not all power supplies come with those connectors as for USB
come with those connectors as for USB connectors guys this motherboard has two
connectors guys this motherboard has two USB connectors a USB one and a USB 2
USB connectors a USB one and a USB 2 it's up to you which one you want to go
it's up to you which one you want to go and use so it really doesn't matter and
and use so it really doesn't matter and just to remind you guys the cables are
just to remind you guys the cables are labeled let me show you guys you can see
labeled let me show you guys you can see here this cable this is that same
here this cable this is that same motherboard from earlier it's label it
motherboard from earlier it's label it says USB and your job is just to go and
says USB and your job is just to go and put it on the right place on the
put it on the right place on the motherboard as for Oro connectors Guys
motherboard as for Oro connectors Guys audio connectors also on the motherboard
audio connectors also on the motherboard you'll normally have one or two
you'll normally have one or two connectors motherboard I showed you guys
connectors motherboard I showed you guys earlier had only one connector but they
earlier had only one connector but they might potentially have two or more so
might potentially have two or more so you can see here on this cable from
you can see here on this cable from earlier this cable clearly says audio
earlier this cable clearly says audio your job is just to go look on a
your job is just to go look on a motherboard where it also says audio as
motherboard where it also says audio as simple as that guys as for fan connector
simple as that guys as for fan connector if you look at this motherboard here
if you look at this motherboard here it's got three of them one of them says
it's got three of them one of them says CPU fan one says system fan other one
CPU fan one says system fan other one just says fan in general so some
just says fan in general so some motherboards only have one this one's
motherboards only have one this one's called a lot of fan connectors here on
called a lot of fan connectors here on the right hand side there's another fan
the right hand side there's another fan connector here on the left hand side
connector here on the left hand side there's another fan connector so in
there's another fan connector so in total right off the bat I see about five
total right off the bat I see about five on this motherboard I think so at the
on this motherboard I think so at the top there's three here on the right
top there's three here on the right there one and here at the bottom left or
there one and here at the bottom left or in the middle left there's also one so
in the middle left there's also one so the one they way on the right and the
the one they way on the right and the one way on the left those are normal
one way on the left those are normal case fan connectors and the ones at the
case fan connectors and the ones at the top that's for CPU fan system fan um so
top that's for CPU fan system fan um so when mine say CPU fan I went and
when mine say CPU fan I went and connected a liquid cooling system
connected a liquid cooling system because of how you know powerful the CPU
because of how you know powerful the CPU is and how hot it gets I need to cool
is and how hot it gets I need to cool this sucker properly so instead of
this sucker properly so instead of opting for a normal heat sink of a
opting for a normal heat sink of a normal fan I'm cooling this this bugger
normal fan I'm cooling this this bugger with a liquid cooling system I'll show
with a liquid cooling system I'll show you guys what that looks like once we
you guys what that looks like once we get to liquid cooling systems and stuff
get to liquid cooling systems and stuff in of course then I'll show you maybe
in of course then I'll show you maybe guys a little video of what this PC of
guys a little video of what this PC of this motherboard actually looks like
this motherboard actually looks like with the liquid cooling you guys can see
with the liquid cooling you guys can see firsthand that how that actually works
firsthand that how that actually works and how I connected it as for RGB
and how I connected it as for RGB connectors now these gaming motherboards
connectors now these gaming motherboards guys they've got a connector on the
guys they've got a connector on the motherboard which looks very much the
motherboard which looks very much the same as the fans it's for RGB if you
same as the fans it's for RGB if you don't know what the RGB is that's the
don't know what the RGB is that's the lights all of these gaming pieces in the
lights all of these gaming pieces in the fans of the case you'll find that
fans of the case you'll find that they've got lights in the fans some of
they've got lights in the fans some of them are constant it'll be a consistent
them are constant it'll be a consistent red or a consistent blue or purple but
red or a consistent blue or purple but most of these fans are able to change
most of these fans are able to change multiple colors that's the RGB you can
multiple colors that's the RGB you can go look up what that actually is so a
go look up what that actually is so a lot of these cases they've got RGB if
lot of these cases they've got RGB if you look at the ram that goes into these
you look at the ram that goes into these gaming motherboards the the ram
gaming motherboards the the ram themselves actually have lights on them
themselves actually have lights on them believe it or not that you know changes
believe it or not that you know changes all kinds of colors the ram I put on
all kinds of colors the ram I put on this motherboard is RGB Ram it's not so
this motherboard is RGB Ram it's not so it's not just fast gaming Ram the ram
it's not just fast gaming Ram the ram has got all kinds of fancy lights so the
has got all kinds of fancy lights so the ram actually glows in the motherboard
ram actually glows in the motherboard the whole freaking case I put everything
the whole freaking case I put everything in and glows everything just glows the
in and glows everything just glows the graphics card glows everything has got
graphics card glows everything has got RGB and that needs to be connected to
RGB and that needs to be connected to the motherboard so you can go and
the motherboard so you can go and control the colors of all of this all
control the colors of all of this all right guys and then um as for the
right guys and then um as for the expansion cards which I've mentioned
expansion cards which I've mentioned quite quite a few times so that would be
quite quite a few times so that would be something like a a modem a sound card a
something like a a modem a sound card a Wi-Fi card more than likely you guys are
Wi-Fi card more than likely you guys are not going to be using this but um an
not going to be using this but um an expansion card guys is a printed circuit
expansion card guys is a printed circuit board that is installed in a slot on a
board that is installed in a slot on a system board this is normally your PCI
system board this is normally your PCI slot and is to provide special functions
slot and is to provide special functions for customizing or extending your
for customizing or extending your computer's capabilities this is also
computer's capabilities this is also referred to as an adapter card an IO
referred to as an adapter card an IO card in other words an input output card
card in other words an input output card and adding an add-on or just a board but
and adding an add-on or just a board but most of us will just call this an
most of us will just call this an expansion card so these input output
expansion card so these input output adapters or storage cards guys like I
adapters or storage cards guys like I said this could be something like a
said this could be something like a sound card that'll be an example of an
sound card that'll be an example of an output card it could be maybe an
output card it could be maybe an additional external network card so this
additional external network card so this could be a Nick maybe network interface
could be a Nick maybe network interface card most motherboards including laptops
card most motherboards including laptops already have an RJ45 Port which is your
already have an RJ45 Port which is your normal network cable if you look at a
normal network cable if you look at a laptop they actually have two Nicks one
laptop they actually have two Nicks one of them is for the RJ45 Port which is
of them is for the RJ45 Port which is where you would normally go and plug in
where you would normally go and plug in your land Cable in other words your
your land Cable in other words your normal network cable and the other
normal network cable and the other network card is the wireless one that
network card is the wireless one that allows your laptop to connect wirelessly
allows your laptop to connect wirelessly but if you look at the fancy new gaming
but if you look at the fancy new gaming computer cases a lot of them actually
computer cases a lot of them actually have wireless capability so they
have wireless capability so they technically have two n cards too if you
technically have two n cards too if you think about it all right folks that
think about it all right folks that brings us finally to the end of the
brings us finally to the end of the second main section and we're going to
second main section and we're going to we're going to move into the third and
we're going to move into the third and the last main section now guys this is
the last main section now guys this is the point of the video where I like to
the point of the video where I like to play a game with my audience most of you
play a game with my audience most of you guys would know what this game is by now
guys would know what this game is by now I normally give you a secret word or a
I normally give you a secret word or a secret phrase now folks this is
secret phrase now folks this is completely optional you do not need to
completely optional you do not need to play this game but if you'd like to play
play this game but if you'd like to play along the secret word for today is
along the secret word for today is peanut butter I kid you not now the idea
peanut butter I kid you not now the idea here for you guys is to either go and
here for you guys is to either go and type the word as is in the comment
type the word as is in the comment section down below but that alone is not
section down below but that alone is not so much fun or you can take the word or
so much fun or you can take the word or the phrase today it's just the word and
the phrase today it's just the word and you can go and make a sentence with that
you can go and make a sentence with that word if at all possible try and keep it
word if at all possible try and keep it to it now this is next to Impossible me
to it now this is next to Impossible me the word peanut butter obviously has
the word peanut butter obviously has nothing to do with it but let's see how
nothing to do with it but let's see how creative you guys can be make a sentence
creative you guys can be make a sentence with the word peanut butter but try and
with the word peanut butter but try and Associate it somehow with it let's see
Associate it somehow with it let's see how creative you guys can be now never
how creative you guys can be now never mind that what also makes this fun is
mind that what also makes this fun is any body that's now reading through the
any body that's now reading through the comment section that has not watched the
comment section that has not watched the video up until this point they're going
video up until this point they're going to be massively confused they're going
to be massively confused they're going to be wondering why are people talking
to be wondering why are people talking about peanut butter or and this or that
about peanut butter or and this or that they're going to be massively confused
they're going to be massively confused so only for people that's actually
so only for people that's actually watched the video up until this point
watched the video up until this point only you guys would know what this is
only you guys would know what this is all about so it's a bit of an inside
all about so it's a bit of an inside game of a bit of an inside joke now you
game of a bit of an inside joke now you can of course still go and drop your
can of course still go and drop your normal comments down below so if you've
normal comments down below so if you've got a question about something in this
got a question about something in this specific module guys by all means ask
specific module guys by all means ask ask your question down below and I will
ask your question down below and I will gladly answer you guys as soon as I

can ask it in the Discord server and you can go ask it in the comment section
can go ask it in the comment section it's really your choice guys all right
it's really your choice guys all right folks let's move on to the last section
folks let's move on to the last section Legacy caes so the word legacy means
Legacy caes so the word legacy means something is old this can be Hardware it
something is old this can be Hardware it can be software so if it's Hardware it
can be software so if it's Hardware it could be something like the old IDE hard
could be something like the old IDE hard drives those are Legacy or it can be
drives those are Legacy or it can be cables like an integrated Drive
cables like an integrated Drive Electronics Cable in other words IDE
Electronics Cable in other words IDE cable also known as a PARTA cable so
cable also known as a PARTA cable so there's a picture obviously for you guys
there's a picture obviously for you guys of what these look like
of what these look like the chances are very unlikely that you
the chances are very unlikely that you guys are not going to see these you're
guys are not going to see these you're not going to see these cables they're
not going to see these cables they're basically extinct so the old computers
basically extinct so the old computers used to have these you could normally
used to have these you could normally plug up to two of them onto the
plug up to two of them onto the motherboard and they will allow you to
motherboard and they will allow you to connect up to four devices in total so
connect up to four devices in total so it's one end of the cable connects to
it's one end of the cable connects to the motherboard each cable had two
the motherboard each cable had two connectors you could go and connect two
connectors you could go and connect two Optical drives two hard drives or a
Optical drives two hard drives or a combination of one hard drive and one
combination of one hard drive and one optical drive on one of these cables
optical drive on one of these cables you'll see there's a little colored
you'll see there's a little colored strip there so in a picture there it's
strip there so in a picture there it's pink that is pin one these cables
pink that is pin one these cables normally consisted of 40 pins or 80 pins
normally consisted of 40 pins or 80 pins 80 pins was the more common one and U
80 pins was the more common one and U the pink strip is normally pin one that
the pink strip is normally pin one that is just to indicate which side needs to
is just to indicate which side needs to face towards you so you've got a side
face towards you so you've got a side panel the case off the color strip
panel the case off the color strip always faces towards you that was just
always faces towards you that was just to indicate this cable obviously as you
to indicate this cable obviously as you guys can see is gray but in reality just
guys can see is gray but in reality just like the Sata cable from earlier they
like the Sata cable from earlier they could actually be any color the rainbow
could actually be any color the rainbow mine used to be black and pin one used
mine used to be black and pin one used to be white but the came itself can be
to be white but the came itself can be any color of the rainbow pin one could
any color of the rainbow pin one could be any color of the rainbow um end of
be any color of the rainbow um end of the day the cable could only go and plug
the day the cable could only go and plug in one way on the mother board so there
in one way on the mother board so there was no incorrect way of plugging it in
was no incorrect way of plugging it in if you tried to plug it in the wrong way
if you tried to plug it in the wrong way it simply just would not go in if you're
it simply just would not go in if you're wondering what I'm talking about there's
wondering what I'm talking about there's a bit of a picture of a very old
a bit of a picture of a very old motherboard of what this used to look
motherboard of what this used to look like if you want to go and plug this on
like if you want to go and plug this on the motherboard you can see there's a
the motherboard you can see there's a pin missing and it used to be a little
pin missing and it used to be a little click side so if you look at this cable
click side so if you look at this cable there on the right you can see it's got
there on the right you can see it's got a little piece of plastic sticking out
a little piece of plastic sticking out and if you at the Port there you can see
and if you at the Port there you can see there's a little piece of plastic
there's a little piece of plastic missing so there's only one way it could
missing so there's only one way it could go in both of those actually has a piece
go in both of those actually has a piece of plastic missing the black one is a
of plastic missing the black one is a bit quite hard to see but the black port
bit quite hard to see but the black port and the blue Port both have a piece of
and the blue Port both have a piece of plastic missing and on the cable there
plastic missing and on the cable there you can see it's got a piece of plastic
you can see it's got a piece of plastic sticking out so the cable could only go
sticking out so the cable could only go in one way if you tried to plug it in
in one way if you tried to plug it in the wrong way it would not work guys as
the wrong way it would not work guys as for the hard drive that's what the hard
for the hard drive that's what the hard drivve used to look like so the bottom
drivve used to look like so the bottom left there guys that that is where you
left there guys that that is where you were going to plug that sucker in and on
were going to plug that sucker in and on the bottom right there that's where you
the bottom right there that's where you going to plug in that Molex connector we
going to plug in that Molex connector we spoke of way earlier in the video that's
spoke of way earlier in the video that's where the Molex connector would have
where the Molex connector would have gone right folks still on the topic of
gone right folks still on the topic of Legacy cables let's talk about serial
Legacy cables let's talk about serial cables these cables you know the ports
cables these cables you know the ports on the motherboards for laptops and
on the motherboards for laptops and desktops are extinct so if you go look
desktops are extinct so if you go look at a standard laptop or a standard
at a standard laptop or a standard desktop PC these days you will not come
desktop PC these days you will not come across these ports anymore yet
across these ports anymore yet we still use these cables very commonly
we still use these cables very commonly now where do we use these cables you ask
now where do we use these cables you ask well guys you're going to use them in
well guys you're going to use them in server room these cables are also refer
server room these cables are also refer to as a console cable they're also
to as a console cable they're also referred as a rollover cable not
referred as a rollover cable not something we actually teach in A+ not
something we actually teach in A+ not something they'll ask you in the A+ exam
something they'll ask you in the A+ exam that is something they might possibly
that is something they might possibly ask you in the N plus exam more commonly
ask you in the N plus exam more commonly in the Cisco exam if any of you guys are
in the Cisco exam if any of you guys are going to go and do CCNA you know Cisco
going to go and do CCNA you know Cisco and stuff like that but just foot for f
and stuff like that but just foot for f it's also called a console cable it's
it's also called a console cable it's also called a roll over cable so if you
also called a roll over cable so if you are in a server room and U if you guys
are in a server room and U if you guys ever seen a server room there's all
ever seen a server room there's all kinds of devices in the server room and
kinds of devices in the server room and you sometimes need to configure these
you sometimes need to configure these devices now for you to do that you'll
devices now for you to do that you'll normally go and take a laptop in because
normally go and take a laptop in because laptops are just easier to carry around
laptops are just easier to carry around the cable you're going to plug into this
the cable you're going to plug into this device the part that plugs into the
device the part that plugs into the device is going to look like a normal
device is going to look like a normal net2 cable it's going to look like it's
net2 cable it's going to look like it's got an RJ45 connector now that's called
got an RJ45 connector now that's called the console cable that's normally the
the console cable that's normally the more common name we use but the part of
more common name we use but the part of the cable that plugs into your laptop
the cable that plugs into your laptop but there desktop looks like what we see
but there desktop looks like what we see in front of us that part you know it
in front of us that part you know it looks like that we call that a Serial
looks like that we call that a Serial interface a comp part so it's called an
interface a comp part so it's called an rs232 interface it's also called a DB9
rs232 interface it's also called a DB9 connector it's also called a comport
connector it's also called a comport it's also called a Serial interface or a
it's also called a Serial interface or a Serial Port it's got so many names guys
Serial Port it's got so many names guys it's enough to make you nauseous these
it's enough to make you nauseous these ports many moons ago they used to be
ports many moons ago they used to be also used for you know normal PS2
also used for you know normal PS2 keyboards and mouses but that's it's
keyboards and mouses but that's it's been like 15 20 years if not more since
been like 15 20 years if not more since I've seen people use it for that so
I've seen people use it for that so they're only used for devices and serve
they're only used for devices and serve rooms these days now since that's what
rooms these days now since that's what the port looks like that we need to go
the port looks like that we need to go and connect to our laptop how do we
and connect to our laptop how do we connect that to our laptop if our laptop
connect that to our laptop if our laptop does not have a connector like that we
does not have a connector like that we are going to go and use what we call an
are going to go and use what we call an adapter guys sometimes these adapters
adapter guys sometimes these adapters are like small little cables that are
are like small little cables that are about the length of your hands or your
about the length of your hands or your length of your arm one side of the
length of your arm one side of the connector might be USB or it might be an
connector might be USB or it might be an RJ45 or something along with those lines
RJ45 or something along with those lines the other part of the connector will be
the other part of the connector will be something like what we see in front of
something like what we see in front of us it's to convert one interface into
us it's to convert one interface into another most commonly we use these
another most commonly we use these converter cables adapters for video so I
converter cables adapters for video so I can go and convert DVI to VGA HDMI to
can go and convert DVI to VGA HDMI to VGA or whatever they're more common with
VGA or whatever they're more common with video but we can go and convert serial
video but we can go and convert serial to something like USB or whatever as
to something like USB or whatever as well and that's normally what we do in
well and that's normally what we do in these Ser room environments then folks
these Ser room environments then folks another cable we get is scuzzy we just
another cable we get is scuzzy we just referred to this as scuzzy but the
referred to this as scuzzy but the actual official name is actually small
actual official name is actually small computer system interface more commonly
computer system interface more commonly known as scuzzy for short so this is
known as scuzzy for short so this is normally also found more commonly in Ser
normally also found more commonly in Ser room environments they are kind of you
room environments they are kind of you know extinct now at this point in time I
know extinct now at this point in time I suppose you will still find them in some
suppose you will still find them in some server rooms the very old server rooms
server rooms the very old server rooms so this interface is absolute guys might
so this interface is absolute guys might still be found an unreplaceable Legacy
still be found an unreplaceable Legacy system so if you are in a server room
system so if you are in a server room which has got very old servers yes you
which has got very old servers yes you might still find it there these old
might still find it there these old systems guys might run some bespoke
systems guys might run some bespoke applications which are too risky to try
applications which are too risky to try and swap out so there's a chance that
and swap out so there's a chance that some company might have some very old
some company might have some very old application and it's nothing new in the
application and it's nothing new in the market they've got to run that
market they've got to run that application there's no other version out
application there's no other version out there there's no equivalent out there
there there's no equivalent out there and in those cases you might find them
and in those cases you might find them still using these old cables which we
still using these old cables which we call scuzzy very very old stuff so
call scuzzy very very old stuff so chances are you might never actually see
chances are you might never actually see these guys all right folks and then the
these guys all right folks and then the last topic I'm going to talk to you guys
last topic I'm going to talk to you guys about today which is something we did
about today which is something we did briefly mention is adapter cables they
briefly mention is adapter cables they could be cables or it could be a little
could be cables or it could be a little adapter that fits in the palm of your
adapter that fits in the palm of your hand then the more common ones like I
hand then the more common ones like I said is to convert one type of video
said is to convert one type of video feed to another to convert HDMI to VGA
feed to another to convert HDMI to VGA or HDMI to DVI you know that's the more
or HDMI to DVI you know that's the more common ones or VJ to DVI now you do get
common ones or VJ to DVI now you do get other ones as well you know which can go
other ones as well you know which can go and convert let's say serial to USB you
and convert let's say serial to USB you know for instance like we said earlier
know for instance like we said earlier so these are passive cables with
so these are passive cables with different connectors on each end then
different connectors on each end then you also get active cables with
you also get active cables with circuitry to translate signaling between
circuitry to translate signaling between different interface types if we look at
different interface types if we look at the the common one I spoke about earlier
the the common one I spoke about earlier video that could be HDMI to VGA it could
video that could be HDMI to VGA it could be HDMI to display port display port
be HDMI to display port display port you'll often see people just referring
you'll often see people just referring to it as DP it could be HDMI to DVI and
to it as DP it could be HDMI to DVI and if you look at USB USB is also a common
if you look at USB USB is also a common one this could be USB type c to USB type
one this could be USB type c to USB type A you could go maybe you know split this
A you could go maybe you know split this into a USB hub this could be USB to
into a USB hub this could be USB to Thunderbolt or USB to lightning
Thunderbolt or USB to lightning something we spoke about earlier when we
something we spoke about earlier when we spoke about Thunderbolt cables or
spoke about Thunderbolt cables or lightning cables guys all right folks I
lightning cables guys all right folks I really hope you've learned something in
really hope you've learned something in module 2 of A+ we've still got a lot of
module 2 of A+ we've still got a lot of modules we still got 20 modules to go
modules we still got 20 modules to go remember the course consists of 22
