The computer collected independently will cost you twice cheaper than the finished machine with similar characteristics. Moreover, to collect a great game computer with your own hands these days are not much more difficult than the big designer LEGO!
Installation of processor
- Remove the protective plastic coating over the CPU socket on the motherboard by pressing the down and lift lever, then open the cover.
- Remove the processor from its packaging. Carefully contact the contact "foot" processor, do not touch them. Contacts are located face down, so the smooth silver side should be directed upwards.
- The CPU is inserted into the socket, and you do not need to press to make it get into place. He does not "snap" inside - he just lies on the top of the contacts.
- Put the processor into the contact nest as shown in the figure in the instructions for the processor or to the motherboard.
- To finish the installation, just lower the socket cover and install the pressure lever in place.
Install the processor cooler
Installing the processor cooler can be quite time consuming, especially because they differ in design. The cooler is installed only with reliable fixation of the rear panel.
- Disconnect the fan to facilitate the radiator installation.
- Apply the thermal chaser to the processor and remove the protective coating from the radiator.
- Place the radiator over the processor. Orient the cooler so that it is in a vertical position above the processor socket, and press it with a cooler.
- Look at the processor mounting bracket - crossbar with spring-loaded screws at the ends. Make sure these screws are correctly installed. in nests motherboard.
- Secure the cooler, it is necessary to feel how the cooler is delayed on the motherboard until it should be entrenched on the spot.
- Attach the fan and connect it to the connector on the motherboard.
RAM Slots (RAM)
Look in the manual for the motherboard, which slots for RAM are best suited for use, open the slot, pressing on the folding latches at the ends. Orient the memory dies so that the label (deepening) between the dies contacts corresponded to the label on the slot. Now gently insert RAM into slots. Do not worry about what you press too much - it will require some effort.

If your housing does not have the necessary ventilation at the bottom, better orient the power supply in such a way that the fan is directed upward into the housing. Secure the power supply with screws suitable to the holes of the system unit.
Installation of motherboard
- First you need to screw the racks for the motherboard in the holes suitable for the format of your motherboard (ATH, MIDIATX, miniath and microoca) on the system unit housing, and then lower the board so that it can rely on the racks.
- As soon as the motherboard is installed, secure it with screws.
- Connect the motherboard to the system unit housing, as it is shown in your instructions for the body or to the motherboard.
- Connect the power supply of the motherboard from the power supply.
Hard drives
As a rule, in the system of the system unit there are suitable tanks for hard drives, they are inserted and removed, or plastic guides that are supplied complete with the system unit housing. These guides are attached to the hard disk on the sides in the appropriate hard disk holes. With the help of the guide, the hard disk is attached to the system unit.
- Install the hard disk into the container so that the disk ports look out from the back of the tank. So it will be possible to lay cables behind the case.
- Now fasten the hard disk with screws in the container.
- Insert the tray back into the slot.
- The hard disk connects to the motherboard using the SATA cable. It is inserted into the suitable SATA connectors in the motherboard and on the hard disk.
- Also, a suitable cable must be connected to power from the power supply to the hard disk.
Insert the video card
To connect the video card, remove the plugs on the system block housing to remove them, unscrew the bolts with the rolled head and extend them. Connect the video card to the PCIE slot on the motherboard and attach it with screws to the case. The card must be securely fixed.
