Introduction:
• Things to Prepare before Assembly
• Anti-static wrist strap
• Set of screwdrivers and pliers
• Piece of cloth
• CPU Thermal compound (recommended)
• PC components

Step 1: Installing the motherboard

1. Make sure you have all the components in


place and a nice, clean and big enough place
to work with.
2. Put your antic-static wrist strap on to
prevent your components from getting
affected. Make sure your hands are clean
before starting.
3. Unscrew and open the side doors of the
cabinet
4. Lay the cabinet on its side

Step 2: Installing the CPU

1. CPU is the heart of a computer so make sure you handle it properly


and do not drop it or mishandle it.
2. DO NOT touch the pins.
3. Get hold of your motherboard and CPU manual
4. There is a golden mark on the CPU to help you assist. Consult both
your motherboard and CPU manual to see which position it fits
exactly
5. Lift the CPU lever on the motherboard
6. Place the CPU properly on the motherboard
7. Pull down the lever to secure the CPU in place

Step 3: Installing the heat sink

1. After installing the processor we proceed


to installing the heat sink. There are
different kinds of heat sinks that are
bundled with the processor and each has
a different way of installation.
2. Place the heat sink on the processor
3. Secure the heat sink with the lever or
screws.
4. After this you will need to connect the
cable of the heat sink fan on the
motherboard. Again look into the
motherboard manual on where to
connect it and then connect it to the
right port to get your heat sink in
operational mode.

Step 4: Installing the RAM
1. The newer RAMs ie. DDR RAMs are easy to install as you don’t have
to worry about placing which side where into the slot.
2. DDR RAM terminals are split into 2 lengths to fit in to the RAM
connector.
3. Push down the RAM into the slot
4. Make sure the both the clips hold the RAM properly

Step 5: Installing the power supply

1. We will now install the


power supply as the
components we install after
this will require power
cables to be connected to
them.
2. Place the PSU into the case
bracket
3. Put the screws in place
tightly

Step 6: Installing the video card

1. First you will need to find out whether your


video card is AGP or PCI-E. AGP graphics cards
have become redundant and are being
phased out of the market quickly.
2. Remove the back plate on the case
corresponding to the graphics card
3. Push the card into the slot
4. Secure the card with a screw
5. Plug in the power connection from PSU (if
required)
6. High-end graphics cards need dedicated
power supply usually a 4/6 pin plug.

2. Place the hard drive into the bay
3. Secure the drive with screws
4. Connect the power cable from PSU to hard disk
5. Connect the PATA (IDE) or SATA cable from
motherboard into the drive

Step 8: Installing optical drive

1. The installation an optical drive is exactly


similar to an hard drive.
2. Place the optical drive into the bay
3. Drive in the screws
4. Connect the power cable and data cable
5. Tip: When installing multiple optical drives
take care of jumper settings. Make sure you
make one as primary and other slave by using
the jumper. This is not applicable if the drives
are SATA drives.

Step 9: Connecting various cables

1. You will need to consult your motherboard manual for


finding the appropriate port for connecting various
cables at the right places on the motherboard.
2. Connect the large ATX power connector to the power
supply port on your motherboard
3. Next get hold of the smaller square power connector
which supplies power to the processor and connect it
to the appropriate port by taking help from your
motherboard manual
4. Connect the ATX case cables for power,reset button in
the appropriate port of the motherboard
5. Connect the front USB/audio panel cable in the
motherboard
6. Plug the cable of ATX case cooling fans

Step 10: Setup other connection

1. Get the rest of the PC components like monitor,


keyboard, mouse, speakers etc. which we will connect
now.
2. Connect the VGA cable of the monitor into the VGA
port
3. If mouse/keyboard are PS/2 then connect them to
PS/2 ports or else use the USB port
4. Connect the speaker cable in the audio port
5. Plug in the power cable from PSU into the UPS
6. Also plug in the power cable of the monitor
