Anyone have a link to a guide on putting together a pc? It would be ever so helpful, thanks
think I glanced at this one a few times

it's fairly straightforward, ill help you over xfire if you need
put fan on cpu, put cpu in mobo, mobo in case, make sure there's risers
put PSU in
put RAM in
put video card in
put cd drive/HDD in
connect case and fan stuff to mobo/psu
connect everything else to psu
start her up!

E: The order I'd do it in personally is this:
Open case
Install PSU
Install hard drives, optical drives
Route cables to where you'll need them to be
Take motherboard
Install CPU
Apply thermal paste and heatsink, plug power cable for heatsink fan into motherboard
Install RAM
Install motherboard in case
Install Graphics, Sound, etc cards
Plug in rainbow cable, CPU power cable, hard-drives and optical drives, if your GPU needs it plug that cable in too.
Plug SATA cables from hdd/optical to motherboard
Put side on case, plug cables into the back of it, press go.

What I meant was why put the fan on the CPU .. before you even put the CPU in the mobo?Bevo wrote:

You have to seat the CPU and place the cover over it, which is all in the mobo..
It would fall off too.Finray wrote:

There's no cover on my gigabyte mobo, just a locking mechanism.

You still can't fit a cooler before the CPU is in *points at locking lever by CPU that goes underneath the cooler*Bevo wrote:

wtf bevo... this is nearly as wierd a move as when that guy put paste on his CPU's pins
Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me
this is clearly the same, you arrogant cuntFloppY_ wrote:

appears i'm mistaken, apologies
I'm not arrogant, I just think that putting your heatsink on your cpu before putting your cpu on the motherboard sounds as wierd as putting paste on the pinsBevo wrote:

because putting cooling paste between the motherboard and cpu instead of between the cpu and cooler is even remotely the same as putting a cooler onto a cpu and then trying to stick it in the mobo.FloppY_ wrote:

one will destroy the mobo and cpu, the other won't work and you simply change the order. no loss

@floppy: if you can't see the difference... see my original response.
Trying that will bend the CPU pins and you're left with a worthless piece of silicon.Bevo wrote:

once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

One is guaranteed to destroy your CPU and Mobo.
The other is very likely to destroy your CPU.
Both are very stupid, but one is more stupid than the other.
k
how will the paste destroy the cpu and motherboard? yeah if it's AS5 you could damage it if you turn it on but as alot of the top pastes are not conductive or capacitive all you'd have to do is clean it off and all's good.Bertster7 wrote:
