@@CLT_Yudhis_10the kinda makes sense but I personally just do the cable management as I go and because I spend a while on it if it does go wrong I can easily unplug things
So I assembled a pc for a sibling for their Christmas present, I got them a decent mobo, a gold psu, my old 980ti from the prebuilt I purchased, 1 tb of SSD nvme, and 32gbs of RAM. I really didn’t have a well put together plan, just build what I could and make sure there wasn’t a mess. And I think it came out beautifully since it hasn’t crashed or show any signs of failure, I feel like a proud older sibling.
Here’s the steps I think you should take 1. Take motherboard out and put it on the box 2. Install CPU 3. Install ram 4. Install ssd 5. Install cooler/aio mounting bracket (if there’s no thermal paste then apply some) 6. Put power supply in case and route the cables 7. Put in motherboard 8. If you have an aio install it 9. Plug in case and psu cables 10. Install gpu and plug it in 11. Turn it on to see if it works 12. Do some cable management
Well, I don't know actually. I find cable management fairly easy, without its absolute garbage even though, I'm kind of messy everywhere else. Except my desktop, you can't see a single wire or cable lol (obviously you fan from my mouse and keyboard, but everything is neatly routed behind my desk)
Tip for new builders, add the air cooler last. I had an matx board and it couldn’t screw in the mobo stand offs on my first build cuz the cooler blocked it 😂
Pro tip if you have a modular psu or cable extentions. Plug in the cpu cable and route it through it's hole before mounting the mobo. Especially useful for people with fat fingers
Him referring to the irritating part of building a PC (daisy-chaining fans, squeezing your fingers into tight spaces to feed cables through, screwing in components with awkward, sharp corners to avoid) as the lego phase has got to be the most diabolical description I've ever heard
I personally start with the motherboard, do a POST, and confirm all parts are functional before installation. Last thing I want is to have something not work, have to take it all apart and see what isn't working. After a basic install, I run another POST test to confirm once again before full buttoning up, cable management, etc
I'm Surprised I had to scroll this far down to find this. It used to be common advice a few years ago to see if everything posts before putting it in the case. I wonder why it fell out of fashion
@@rennoc577 I learned from LTT, now LMG. I built my first PC 3yrs ago, and even with my experience now, I still am cautious. I don't know why it fell out of style either...
I usually install the cpu cooler after installing and plugging in the motherboard because it's hard to wire things when there's a giant cooler in the middle. Some connectors can become practically inaccessible like the CPU power line.
Bro really organized, ive never been that clean with my builds too many cables to find homes for and too many accessories I don't want to buy unless I am paid to do it haha
Personally I like to: 1. Apply thermal paste to the underside of the cpu cooler 2. Secure the gpu to the case 3. Slide the motherboard behind the gpu being carful not to knock off any capacitors (I always have at least 2 spare motherboards handy) 4. Install the cpu cooler 5. Place the m.2 ssds in the pci x16 slot(4 fit nicely) 6. Place the power supply under the gpu ( pre-made sag bracket) 7. Gently plug the psu cables into the motherboard 8.forget about the cpu and procede to try and turn the computer on 9. Gently remove the cpu cooler and using a fair amount of pressure, wipe the thermal paste from the socket 10. Install the cpu making sure the side with the pins is always facing you 11. Reapply thermal paste directly onto the cpu pins 12. Replace your cpu cooler 13. Shove all your cables into the back and make sure to forcefully place your glass side panel back on 14. Plug in all the cables and with hope and prayers your pc shout be cranking 999fps in cyberpunk
I really like your steps and they are great. I like to install the backplate of the Motherboard then the power supply and cables, then I install the Mobo already pre build without the graphics card then I install the card last. Great show and great advice but never forget the backplate of the motherboard. That is the most common oops of all time for me.
1. putting the psu into the case. 2. putting cpu, ram, graphics onto the motherboard. 3. connecting all the cables. 4. installing the motherboard into the machine. 5. placing 1 big fan at the side of the pc for cooling.
Pro tip: if you're using extensions, plug the ones for cpu power in the mobo before installing it in the case. Will save some headache and knuckle cracking.
Generally the same, but for extensions, I tend to plug the EPS connectors into the board, then pipe them through the cutout as I'm installing the motherboard. Considering how tight that space can be, getting ahead of that has saved my ass, and my hands.
1) Turn it on 2) put the part into pc 3) violently shake pc around 4) hope for parts to fall into the right place 5) unbox 6) cry 7) empty bank acc 8) order parts 9) look for parts 10) get tired of Celeron

That’s pretty much how I do it. Peppermint but once I get the motherboard prep, the CPU, the memory, the cooler and the graphics card on it. I tested before I put it in the case once the boots up, I shut it down and then assemble it into the case.
1 : Install CPU 2 : Install cooler 3 : Install RAM 4 : Test boot 5 : install drive 6 : install cooler and fans 7 : plug in the psu cable 8 : install psu and cram the rest in the 5 and a quarter bay 9 : install storage drive 10 : install gpu 11 : install windows and partition the boot drive to be small to make it faster 12 : start gaming
I like to start with breathing techniques then move to denial. By the time I start figuring loop order I write my goodbye note. Works every other time 100% of the time
Step 1 is prep the case. install psu run cables where they need to be, install fans run those cables where they need to be, install io sheald and or ssd/hdd. Step 2 prep the motherboard, install cpu, ram, cpu cooler, and m.2 drives and then plop the motherboard into the case then install gpu then connect everything and power it up and hope for no magic smoke.
As i just "upgraded" My pc my order was like this: 1. Clean case and everything. 2. Install as much as you can on notherboard. 3. Do the cable management for the power, ssd and hdd. 4. Shove and connect the motherboard to the cables. 5. Install the power supply and connect the cables to it. 6. Install the gpu. 7. Pray for it to work. P. S. My case is old, so it has power supply higher than the motherboard.
My order: 1: put in the psu 2: put everything on the motherboard 3: be scared when putting in your cpu 4: wonder if you did it correctly and be nervous 5: put the thermal paste and the thermal cooler + fan 6: attach to case 7: wonder where the last 3 screws went 8: find spare screws somewhere 9: attach gpu 10: attach power cables with non modular psu (hell) 11: boot up pc 12: nothing smells burnt 13: find out msi send you a disk with the drivers but you don’t have a disk intake on your pc 14: download Ethernet and WiFi drivers onto a usb and plug it in to get internet connection 15: download the rest of the drivers 16: cry in happiness
assemble EVERYTHING on top of the box. Test it to see if it posts. If it boots properly, take off the big parts like the graphics card, put the mobo in the box and assemble the rest, put the graphics card back in, do your cable management and enjoy your new PC. It's better to test everything while it's out in the open than having to assemble everything in the case, do cable management and then have to troubleshoot if shit goes wrong.
1. Motherboard om the box 2. Sett the CPU inn 3. Sett the ram inn 4. Set on the storage 5. Sett on the CPU cooler 6. Sett the motherboard inside the case 7. Hucking upp the power supply 8. Setting inn all the cables 9. Sett inn extra fans(for extra airflow) 10. Sett inn the power cable 11. Check if the PC is running
1. Motherboard setup (Ram, SSD, AIO bracket, CPU contact plate). 2. Mount fans in case and route the cables how I’d want them. 3. Mount PSU cables onto PSU and screw that onto case. 4. Route PSU cables through slots I’d want, then mount Motherboard onto standoffs.
I leave out the Ram. Makes it easier to fiddle in the 24pin. And I route the CPU power cable before putting in the motherboard and connect it before screwing it down if there is not a lot of space between the mobo and the top of the case. If that's the "case" I also route the back fan through that hole if I don't forget it.
Depends on the parts, Last build Step 1 put motherboard on box step 2 connect psu to board step 3 update bios, step 4 disconnect psu, step 5 install cpu. Rest was the same in line.
The PSU should be installed first, because once screwed into the case, you can make sure it's turned off, then plug it in to a power strip. It's now grounded, meaning you can ground yourself just by touching any unpainted metal (such as a screw) on the case, avoiding ESD damage to things like motherboard.
Start with putting the motherboard together. Put it in the case. Fumble with the connectors for the power button and front I/O of the case for a frustrating amount of time. Put your power supply together and put that in the case. Spend an even longer amount of time cable managing only to give up on how you WANT it to look and then just make it look ok-ish/neat.
From now on I'll do the power supply prep too, I always put it in the end and my cable management is shit but if the case is empty it shouldn't be that hard
If you want to use a tiny case then you need to: 1. Check the measurements of everything before buying 2. Buy everything again because it doesn't quite fit
I never built one, but I disassembled my old PC with I think windows xp and rebuilt it with the same parts because I don't have any, and first the mono into the case, then everything onto the mono and then power supply
Its on a per case basis honestly. Similar strategy of prep motherboard eith everything first, usually i dont do extensions or modular power supplies so i skip thst, generally if i can i install the power supply before thr motherboard because for routing the wires it is sometimes a lot harder or even impossible. The one exception i had for this was when i built in the jonsbo c2. In that case the psu has to go in last.
Wait putting the gpu in last is so intelligent, when I was building my pc I put the gpu in right after I got the motherboard situated and I really struggled getting around the gpu.
Built one pc, started with motherboard so the cpu and ram, put the psu in case, put the mobo in case installed the cpu cooler, wired it up, broke but repaired the front usb 3 adapter and put in my gpu.
When I built my PC, I started with the motherboard, then put the PSU in the case, then put my motherboard in the case, then put the CPU cooler on, then connected the PSU, then put the GPU in, and lastly changed the fans
I have ADHD, so I'm all over the F'n place. I've been building PCs for 24 years, and I'm still a disaster when assembling a new PC, or even just swapping into a new case.
I put the gpu in first and then feed the motherboard in over the top and just bend it around to get the gpu into it. I also just throw the cables in anywhere and usually can’t fit the side panel on. This leaves no room for fans. And the radiator just hangs loose.
1. Mother prep 2. Case prep (case opening, psu install, case fans and other accessories install, 2.5 or 3.5 drive install) 3. Mother install (including cables, their management, and gpu)
i always plug the cables into the motherboard side before plugging them into the psu outside the case and then inserting the psu this way i can route the cables way easier inside the main area of the pc
Start with the case than put the aio than put the psu than plug the cable of the psu to the psu than install the motherboard than install the ram than the ssd than the cpu
I think I might be a madman, My last build it was case unbox and arrange then motherboard, ram CPU cooler PSU and cable management then graphics then any extra HDS then tidy up then boot test then finishing touches
Always go for a full out-of-the-case assembly and post test that Frankenstein before putting it into the motherboard, in the long run saves you a lot of time id possible debugging in case of faulty parts, incompatibility or just things not fully plugged in

When I built my PC, I started with the motherboard, then put the PSU in the case, then put my motherboard in the case, then put the CPU cooler on, then connected the PSU, then put the GPU in, and lastly changed the fans
I have ADHD, so I'm all over the F'n place. I've been building PCs for 24 years, and I'm still a disaster when assembling a new PC, or even just swapping into a new case.
I put the gpu in first and then feed the motherboard in over the top and just bend it around to get the gpu into it. I also just throw the cables in anywhere and usually can’t fit the side panel on. This leaves no room for fans. And the radiator just hangs loose.
Step 1 nothing
Step 2 nothing
Step 3 cry cuz I dont have enough money
1) decide to build a computer
2) choose the cpu
3) go from there
That color scheme looked kinda nice. White with black and red 👍
Step one build the Pc .
Step two it catches fire
1. Mother prep
2. Case prep (case opening, psu install, case fans and other accessories install, 2.5 or 3.5 drive install)
3. Mother install (including cables, their management, and gpu)
i always plug the cables into the motherboard side before plugging them into the psu outside the case and then inserting the psu
this way i can route the cables way easier inside the main area of the pc
Start with the case than put the aio than put the psu than plug the cable of the psu to the psu than install the motherboard than install the ram than the ssd than the cpu
I think I might be a madman,
My last build it was case unbox and arrange then motherboard, ram CPU cooler PSU and cable management then graphics then any extra HDS then tidy up then boot test then finishing touches
Lol he's eternally cursed by "Lego"
Always go for a full out-of-the-case assembly and post test that Frankenstein before putting it into the motherboard, in the long run saves you a lot of time id possible debugging in case of faulty parts, incompatibility or just things not fully plugged in
For my first build I pretty much did these exact steps I think ima continue like that because I was super easy
Bro I swear every pc build I watch they never show the cable that goes from case to motherboard to turn the actual pc on
Thanks for correcting 'legos', many people say it wrong.
I just finished one for my sister (first build) I started with power supply, then cpu ssd ram fan, installed, wired, gpu.
Gonna build my first ever pc next week. Imma just steal this plan cause it sounds pretty reasonable
I like to go thermal paste first, cpu last. Makes me feel alive.
Imagine doing all that and you see the io shield not yet installed 😂
