Hey guys! I just got my first new case, so I have a couple of questions about moving my motherboard and other things to the new one. I'm a newbie so bear with me. Is there any critical steps I must take in this process? Also, I vaguely recall a LinusTechTips video about motherboard risers and preventing the bottom from being scratched. Could someone elaborate on that and possibly give step by step instructions for that specific part? Thanks  :)

1. unscrew things in the logical order in your old case,

2. make shure the risers are at the same place.

3. assemble in the opposite order that you unscrewed the things moments ago.

PS: Use LOADS or zipties to keep the cables under control.

Anything I write is just a comment, take is as such, there is no guarantees associated with anything I say.
