Planning build, any good?

[MrChavelo]

Hello guys,

 

 

I've made a list of what to do when when I'm going to build my pc, so I don't miss anything.

 

Are there any mistakes in this list or did I forget something?

 

 

List:

 

1. Put on my antistatic wrist strap (of course ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) )

2. Get the motherboard out of the box and put it on top of the box

3. Remove the CPU socket cover

4. Install the CPU with the little triangle aligning with the triangle on the motherboard

5. Turn the pins of the stock cooler anti-clockwise

6. Install the stock cooler and check whether it is seated properly

7. Install the RAM in DIMM 2 & 4

8. Install the I/O shield in the case

9. Install the motherboard standoffs

10. Install the motherboard

11. Connect the stock cooler to the CPU_FAN header

12. Install the HDD and connect it to the motherboard with a SATA cable

13. Install the optical drive and connect it to the motherboard with a SATA cable

14. Install the GPU

15. Install the PSU and connect these cables:

1x24 pin

1x8 pin CPU

2xSATA power cables

1x6 pin GPU

 

16. Install the front panel headers

17. Install the case fans to the SYS_FAN_1/2/3 headers

18. Connect the monitor to the GPU

 

19. Start the computer

20. Install windows

21. Download CCcleaner, comodo, and SUPERAntiSpyware

22. Go to ninite.com and download my software

23. Install Steam, Origin, and Uplay

24. Play games
