Which do I put in first when building my computer?

[computerguyman]

When putting together my tower, should I install my PSU first or my motherboard?

You should build as much as possible outside the case. It's probably easier to put the PSU in while the case is empty, as long as you have a way to keep the cables out of the motherboard's way.

Depends on the case.

In my case (Antec 900), it was easier putting the motherboard in first.
