Where am I putting the mounting plates exactly?

Thsnk you, as for AMD5 boards, should I sit the small mounting brackets first on the CPU before mounting the cooler?

#

So I installed these

#

And these should be installed first on the cpu right?

Ah they pull out my bad

#

Ok so for the cable, there's the main cpu fan header, but there's also a sata cable and another that says usb only on it

#

What do they do?

#

The video is so extremely rushed I didn't understand a thing lol

If so. The usb c end plugs into the pump head, your fans plug into 2 PWM headers they usually are numbered. Sata gets connected to sata power from your PSU, the USB, goes into the USB 2.0 header in your motherboard, and the 3 pin tact cable goes into your CPU fan header.

Ok building now as we speak thank you so much, will show end results

The mobo is now in the case but not all holes are actually lining up

Just push the board over a little. And start screwing the board in. It doesn't have to be perfect.

thin laurel
#

Ok will try that now

#

Ok so this screw that's sticking up also somewhat aligns with the middle motherboard screen, is it ment to go through or just rest about it?

This is what it looks like with the mobo above

It's weird that that they made that mounting point a peg vs a standoff for a screw but it's fine. No harm.

It's the FRACTAL DESIGN Pop Mini Air ATX Mini Tower PC Case

#

I've managed to get 2 screws on so far and even with a nudge it's still pretty unaligned

unkempt glacier
#

That's not what I would call unaligned. Sometimes the I/O plate, especially if it's pre-installed will cause the board to be slightly off. This isn't a big deal. Just nudge it into place and screw it down. Make sure the IO plate is fully situated in the back of the case.

If you worry about every little minor detail you'll never get done. Have some confidence.

#

I got the message, not a big deal if I miss out a few mobo screws right?

unkempt glacier
#

I'd screw them all in. What is physicallying keeping you from scewing em in?

thin laurel

Ok so managed to screw them all in, the last bottom one just won't go, slightly wonky
