my steps to building my pc:
Install Power supply in case
Install IO shields for motherboard and graphics card
Put motherboard on top of motherboard box and install CPU.
Install ram
Install MB into case.
-lay it on the side
-install mounting bracket to back of case/motherboard.
-put thermal paste then install noctus
Install GPU
Connect all the power lines(any guide to this with pictures ?)
Install ssd/hd
boot
-Which orientation should I install my air cooler? With my fractal case I got intake in the front and exhaust at the back. Not sure how I’m supposed to position it.
-can I lay the pc on the side? Noctua air coolers are heavy and I'm afraid it might bend/break the MB.
-How about the power supply orientation?
