1. Unplug all the
cables and wires.
The first thing you
do is to unplug
every cable that is

13. Before we start!
 Have your tools ready.
 Have your tools close by.
 Prepare a part organizer to organize
screws and tools.
With that said, we’re now ready to start!

14. PC Assembly
1. Prepare your
workplace.
Prepare everything
you need. Have
your tools
prepared, assembly
area prepared,
antistatic
equipment, and
lastly software and
drivers necessary.
2. Prepare the
Motherboard.
When handling
the motherboard
make sure to
handle it with
care. Check for
any defects and
also read the
manual.
3. Install the CPU.
When installing
the CPU, make
sure to align the
pins. There’s
usually an arrow
or a missing pin to
that will show you
how to line things
up.

4. Install the CPU
Heat Sink.
Follow the
manufacturer's
directions to install
the heat sink and
the fan that will
cool the processor.
Attach the clip that
holds the heat sink
in place then
connect the power
connector to the
motherboard
5. Install Memory
(RAM).
In order to install
the memory
modules, insert
them into the
proper sockets
(Figure 48) and
push down firmly
but evenly until the
clips on both sides
of the socket pop
into place.
6. Place the
motherboard into the
case.
When installing the
motherboard, check if
your case has a
removable
motherboard tray and
install the
motherboard using
brass standoffs. Also
check the ports if
they’re correct. After
all of that, install the
motherboard inside
the case.

8. Install Graphics
/ Video Card
Begin by
removing the
backplane cover
from the AGP or
PCI Express X16
slot. Install the
graphics board in
that slot, and then
secure the card
with a screw.
Install Internal Drives
Make any necessary
changes to jumpers
on the drives before
mounting them in the
case. Use the included
screws to attach your
drives to the rails or
cage, and slide them
into the case. When
the drives are
installed, connect
power and data cables
