Detailed illustrated tutorial on installation and assembly of computer host

Computer host installation and assembly, the graphical description of the assembly, so that you easily learn to install the computer. is a very classic tutorial. Video Tutorials The following tutorial will be divided into seven steps to teach you DIY installed.

Computer installation and assembly host first step: Install CPU processor

The current market, Intel processors are mainly 32-bit and 64-bit Celeron and Pentium two (core is currently listed, the core processor is Intel's new processor with the 0.65 manufacturing process, with the latest architecture and the LGA 775 interface, and Intel will be the master core processor for some time to come. The installation method is identical to the Intel 64-bit Pentium Celeron because it also uses the LGA 775 interface. The 32-bit processor employs a 478-pin structure, while the 64-bit is all unified to the LGA775 platform. Because the price gap between the two is no longer obvious, so the small series recommended new installed users choose 64-bit LGA775 platform, 32-bit 478 pins are no longer mainstream, not worth buying.

As we can see above, the Intel processor in the LGA 775 interface uses the touch-only design, and the biggest advantage over the 478-needle design is that there is no need to worry about the pins breaking, but the socket requirements for the processor are higher.

This is the LGA 775 processor socket on the motherboard, which you can see is quite different from the socket designed for the syringe. Before installing the CPU, we must first open the socket, the method is: with the appropriate force downward micro-pressure fixed the CPU of the pressure rod, at the same time force to push the bar outside, make it out of the fixed clasp.

After the press rod is out of the buckle, we will be able to pull up the press rod smoothly.

Next, we lift the lid of the fixed processor to the opposite direction of the press rod.

LGA 775 sockets are displayed in front of our eyes.

Special attention is required when installing the processor. You can carefully observe the CPU processor in the corner of a triangle logo, and carefully observe the motherboard on the CPU socket, also found a triangle identification. At installation, the corner on the processor with the triangular logo is aligned with the corner with the triangular logo on the motherboard, and the processor is gently pressed into place. This applies not only to Intel's processors, but also to all current processors, especially if the processor is designed with pins that cannot be installed to all bits if the direction is wrong, and you should pay special attention when installing.

After the CPU is placed in place, cover the buckle cover, and the opposite direction of the micro-force buckle The processor's compression lever. The CPU is then firmly installed on the motherboard and the installation process is complete. Computer Installation and assembly host the second step: Install the Radiator

Because the CPU calorific value is large, choose a heat dissipation performance of the radiator is particularly critical, but if the radiator is improperly installed, the effect of heat dissipation will be greatly reduced. The image above is an Intel LGA775 Pin Interface Processor Original heatsink, we can see compared to the previous 478-pin interface radiator, made a great improvement: from the previous buckle design changed to today's four-corner fixed design, the heat dissipation effect has been greatly improved. Before the installation of heat, we have to evenly on the CPU surface coated with a layer of thermal grease (many radiators in the purchase has been in the bottom with the CPU in contact with the part of the silicone grease, then there is no need to apply a layer on the processor.) ）

Installation, the radiator will be the four corners of the motherboard corresponding to the position, and then press the Four Corners buckle. Some radiators are designed with screws, so in the installation of the back of the motherboard in the corresponding position of the nut, because the installation method is relatively simple, here no longer too much introduction.

After fixing the heatsink, we will also connect the cooling fan to the motherboard's power supply connector. Locate the interface on the motherboard where the fan is installed (the identification character on the motherboard is Cpu_fan), plug the fan into place (note: There are currently four stitches and three pins and other different fan interface, everyone in the installation notice can be). Because the motherboard fan power plug is used to prevent the use of the design, the opposition can not be inserted, so the installation is quite convenient.

PC installation Assembly Host step three: Install memory strips

When memory becomes the biggest bottleneck that affects the whole system, the dual-channel memory design solves the problem greatly. Intel® 64-bit processor-supported motherboards currently offer dual-channel functionality, so it is recommended that you choose two of the same size of memory to build dual-channel when choosing memory.

The memory slots on the motherboard typically use two different colors to differentiate between dual and single channels. For example, the above diagram inserts two identical memory strips into the same color slot, which turns on dual-channel functionality.

When installing memory, open the clip on both ends of the memory socket by hand then put the memory parallel into the memory slot (memory slot is also used to prevent the design, the opposite can not be inserted, you will be able to install the corresponding memory and slot on the gap), with two thumbs down at both ends of the memory slightly downward pressure, hear "snapped" after a sound, That means the memory is installed in place.

Insert two identical memory in the same color memory slot, turn on dual channel function, improve system performance. So far, the CPU, memory installation process is complete, next, we further explain the hard drive, power, burner installation process. The computer installs the Assembly host fourth step: installs the motherboard installation to the chassis

Currently, most board types are ATX or MATX, so the design of the chassis is generally consistent with this standard. Before installing the motherboard, the motherboard stepping nut provided in the installation box is placed in the corresponding position on the chassis board tray (some chassis are already installed when purchased).

Hold the motherboard in parallel with both hands, put the motherboard into the chassis

Make sure the chassis is seated and can be determined by the motherboard bezel on the back of the chassis.

Tighten the screws and fix the motherboard. (In loading screws, note that each screw does not have to be a certain tightening, such as all screws installed in place, and then tighten each screw, the advantage is that the motherboard can be adjusted at any time.) ）

The motherboard is quietly lying in the chassis and the installation process is complete. Computer installation Assembly Fifth step: Install the hard drive

After installing the CPU and memory, we need to secure the hard drive on the 3.5-inch hard drive carrier of the chassis. For a normal chassis, we just need to put the hard drive into the chassis of the hard drive carrier, tighten the screws to make it fixed. Many users use a removable 3.5-inch chassis bracket, which makes it easier to install a hard drive.

A wrench that is fixed to a 3.5-inch bracket in the chassis, pulling the wrench to secure or remove the 3.5-inch hard drive carrier.

3.5-inch hard drive carrier after removal

Install the hard drive into the rack and tighten the screws.

Reload the tray into the chassis and pull the fixed wrench back in place to secure the hard drive carrier. A simple few steps will be the hard drive stable loading into the chassis, there are several fixed hard disk mode, depending on the chassis of the different people can refer to the description, the method is also relatively simple, in this not one introduction. Computer installation Assembly Sixth step: installation of optical drive, power

The way to install the optical drive is the same as the way to install the hard disk, for ordinary chassis, we only need to remove the chassis 4.25 inch bracket front panel, and the optical drive will be in the corresponding position, tighten the screws. But there is also a pull-type design of the optical drive tray, a brief introduction to the installation method.

This kind of optical drive design is more convenient, before installing, we first want to be similar to the drawer design bracket installs to the optical drive.

Push the optical drive into the chassis bay like a push-pull drawer

Chassis installed in place, need to take off, with both hands will be on both sides of the reed, that can be pulled out, simple and convenient.

Chassis power installation, the method is relatively simple, put in place, tighten the screws can be, do not do too much introduction.

Computer installation Assembly Seventh step: Install video card, and connect all kinds of cables

At present, PCI-E graphics card has been the main market, the AGP is basically not seen, so when the choice of graphics card pci-e is absolutely required products.

PCI-E Video slots on the motherboard

With the hand grip the graphics card at both ends, vertical alignment on the motherboard card slot, the downward light pressure in place, and then screw fixed that completes the installation process of the graphics card, is not very simple!

After installing the video card, the rest of the work is to install all the cable interface, the following is a brief introduction.

Install hard drive power and data cable interface, this is a SATA hard drive, the right red for the data line, black and yellow Red Cross is the power cord, installed when it can be. Interface all color-proof design, negative to insert.

Optical drive Data cable installation, all with the anti-dull design, the installation of data cable can be seen on the side of the IDE cable has a blue or red line, this line is on the side of the power connector.

Installing the IDE cable on the motherboard

Motherboard power supply interface, here needs to be explained, the current majority of motherboards using 24PIN power supply design, but still some motherboards for 20PIN, we need to focus on the purchase of the motherboard to buy the appropriate power.

CPU power supply interface, in the part of the four-pin enhanced power supply interface design, high-end use of the 8PIN design, to provide a stable CPU voltage supply.

SATA hard drives, USB and chassis switches, reboots, hard disk work led connectors on the motherboard, installation method can refer to the motherboard instructions.

In particular, in the SLI or exchange of the motherboard, that is, supporting the dual-card interconnection technology motherboard, generally provide additional graphics power supply interface, in the use of dual graphics cards, attention to plug this interface to provide adequate power card.

To provide a good cooling space for all kinds of cables in the chassis, we must pay attention to this point.

Well, their hands-on installation of the host finally good, quickly open the host, installation system on the OK, echocardiography as action, DIY it.
