5. Giya sa Setup
5.1 Pag-instalar sa CPU
- Open the CPU socket lever and lift the load plate.
- Carefully align the CPU with the socket, ensuring the gold triangle on the CPU matches the triangle on the socket. Do not force the CPU into place.
- Lower the load plate and secure it with the lever.
- Apply thermal paste to the CPU and install the CPU cooler according to its instructions.
5.2 Installing Memory (RAM)
- Ablihi ang mga clip sa duha ka tumoy sa DIMM slot.
- I-align ang notch sa DDR3 memory module gamit ang yawe sa DIMM slot.
- Pindota pag-ayo ang duha ka tumoy sa memory module hangtod nga mabutang ang mga clip.
- For dual-channel operation, install modules in matching color slots (e.g., A2 and B2).
5.3 Installing Expansion Cards (PCIe)
- Remove the metal bracket cover from the desired PCIe slot on your PC case.
- Align your expansion card (e.g., graphics card) with the PCIe slot.
- Press down firmly until the card is securely seated in the slot.
- I-secure ang kard sa case gamit ang screw.
5.4 Connecting Storage Devices (SATA)
- Connect one end of a SATA data cable to a SATA3 port on the motherboard.
- Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to your storage device (HDD/SSD).
- Connect a SATA power cable from your power supply unit (PSU) to the storage device.
5.5 Pagdugtong sa Power Supply
- Connect the 24-pin ATX power connector from your PSU to the corresponding header on the motherboard.
- Connect the 8-pin (or 4-pin) CPU power connector from your PSU to the CPU power header near the CPU socket.
5.6 Connecting Front Panel and I/O
- Connect the front panel headers (Power SW, Reset SW, HDD LED, Power LED) to the corresponding pins on the motherboard, observing polarity.
- Connect USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 front panel headers.
