Preparing the Case for a Custom PC Computer

"Hi, I'm Allen, and welcome to Expert Village. Today, I'm going to show you how to build your very own Personal Computer. Now, the moment you've all been waiting for. I'm going to assemble this computer, right here, in front of you. Well, first, a case would be good, right? I've got the case right here, and I did take the sides off. Now, the sides do come off relatively easy. It's your best bet to take off both sides. Pretty much, these ones, they all work the same way. They just pretty much slide on and click into place. All you've got to do is line up the slots, and everything. There will be screws back here, sometimes thumb screws, sometimes these little screws. And for the most part, you're just going to have them in the hole and you unscrew them. Take both case sides off, so you'll have a case that looks like this. Stuff will go in this side here. You'll have a couple basic things: you'll have your wires from inside the case; you'll probably have a box of cables, things like that. Pretty much, we can get started. This one actually came with another fan built on the back and you'll see we can start putting the actual computer together. I'm going to set it up where it's comfortable for me to work on. Make sure you have a lot of light because some things are a little bit hard to see. In the box of screws, you'll have a little bag, and you'll have these, I don't know if you can see these, but these are like little riser screws. They're brass screws, so be careful when you're screwing stuff into them because brass is a very soft metal. You'll put these rights in the case. It has letters and numbers on the case and you'll line it up with your board where the screw holes on the board are. As soon as you do that, your board will be able to sit above the metal so it won't short out. That's pretty much what these are for. I'm going to go ahead and just put this in. Best bet is just to do this with your hand. This is where this one goes, and as you can see, there's other ones and everything like that. That's pretty much ready to go."
