Build or Upgrade Your Own Computer : Assembling a Computer

Assembling a Computer

before we speak about assembling a computer perhaps you need to know about the goal of computer assembling It’s better to understand why it’s better to assemble a computer than to buy it all at once. and at the continue, we should know about internal parts of a computer that in this article we explain these there sections one by one so to end of this article follow us.

Why build or upgrade a computer?

• Cost savings.
• Customization to your needs.
• Learn about computer hardware.

Tools you’ll need:

• Screwdrivers (magnetic recommended).
• Anti-static wrist strap.
• Workspace and lighting.

Understanding Computer Components

• CPU (Central Processing Unit): this part on of the most important sections of the computer because as the same as the brain for all of the computer systems. CPU processes instructions and sends results to other components.

• Motherboard: The main circuit board connects all components that same as roads and streets in the cities and same that connect every internal component of the computer. without the Motherboard or Mainboard, all the internal connections of the computer would be incomplete.

• RAM (Random Access Memory): Temporary memory for active tasks. and one of the parts to help speed up your computer.

• Storage (HDD or SSD): Where your files and programs are stored permanently. like photos, movies, files, etc.
• Power Supply Unit (PSU): Provides electricity to all components. Every part of the computer requires a specific and controlled amount of electricity. with different voltages so the PSU help to supply this power for every part of our computers.
• Graphics Card (GPU): Handles visual processing (especially for gaming or design). Increasing the screen quality is the responsibility of the graphics card.
• Case: Protects and houses all components. that’s the same as a shield protects al of your computer parts.
• Cooling System: Keeps the components from overheating. and created with different technologies such as water cooling – gas cooling – and air cooling but at different prices.

Assembling a Computer Step-by-Step

CPU :

• Align the CPU with the socket on the motherboard.
• Secure it gently but firmly

RAM : 

• Insert RAM sticks into the designated slots on the motherboard.
• Push until they click into place.

Motherboard:

• Place the motherboard inside the case and screw it into place.
• Ensure the backports align with the case opening.

Connect the Power Supply

• Secure the PSU in the case.
• Plug cables into the motherboard, CPU, and GPU as needed.

Storage Drives

• Attach SSDs or HDDs to the storage bays.
• Connect them to the motherboard using SATA cables.

Graphic Card:

graphic cards are in different shapes with varying efficiency

• Insert the GPU into the PCIe slot on the motherboard.
• Secure it with screws and connect power cables if required.

Connect Cooling Systems:

• Install any additional cooling systems (fans or liquid coolers).
• Attach to the motherboard or PSU for power.

Cable Management:

• Organize cables to prevent obstruction of airflow.
• Use zip ties or Velcro straps for neatness.

that’s all, you have a full computer case but these parts are the main sections and some parts such as a mouse, keyboard, DVD or CD drivers install very simply on every computer case and on these products manual,  show you how to install their cables. we suggest you visit our video tutorial at the below.
