videos would be better

btw, the guide is good for a general reference...there's a lot of things to tell about..

i think i pushed until i can feel motherboard wan to break
after put inside it, my pc keep restart after few second(u can hear the noise"beep" every 5 sec)
my 1st RAM was 677 kingston value RAM then i buy another(same brand and frequency, also value RAM but looks smaller(shorter))

U mean the so-dimm ram (laptop ram)?

desktop

But juz now u said ur ram looks shorter?
All the desktop value ram are stadard size...

when the fella say SHORTER, i believe it's referring to the HEIGHT.

OMG , this aslo can , USer Manual in Motherboard aslo shown how to assemble the PC.

its good la for newbie... some people dont RTFM....

Lol...Dont forget, there are some idiot who doesnt know there is a user manual for them...

these heatsink varies, it depends on ur mobo, some r already equipped with a good 1, n some don`t really need to modify unless u overclocked it, but usually if u overclock it im sure u`ll choose the good mobo, which they already equipped it...some even dont have much space for u to put, u better check with ur mobo vendor or ask the salesman

mounting the RAM needs a little strength, that is the RAM error problem, try to reinsert the RAM properly, make sure all the legs r seated properly n the clip is locked, try to push in as hard as u can, dont hold ur mobo while u insert ur RAM, put it on a balanced surface, like the mobo`s box, not a hard surface, den push it inside, if really cannot, make its ur RAM faulty

new RAMS r shorter in height...

yes bro..make the newbie know about the pc..

Let's bring this thread up

yeah good2

if only you made this thread earlier

finished read this post!
really usefull

i plan to install a new sound card on my PC.

but when i tried to remove the old one, it is so tight embedded in the PCI slot.
and i'm afraid if i use excessive force, it might break my sound card and the PCI slot.

is there any special techniques to easily remove the sound card?
how do i know i'm not pulling the card too hard?

has seen a lot of vid in youtube, but i guess i'm still not confident enough.

Try to pull infront of the card first , then pull at the back(the one at casing screw slot)

nice effort to educate on how to assembling pc yourself...
