3. Opstelling en installering

3.1 Veiligheidsmaatreëls

Always disconnect power from your system before installing or removing any components. Wear an anti-static wrist strap to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage to sensitive components.

3.2 Komponentinstallasie

1. SVE Installasie: Carefully open the CPU socket lever. Align the triangular mark on the Intel processor with the mark on the LGA 1700 socket. Gently place the CPU into the socket without forcing it. Close the lever to secure the CPU.
2. Installasie van die CPU-verkoeler: Installeer jou SVE-verkoeler volgens die vervaardiger se instruksies. Maak seker dat jy die termiese pasta behoorlik aanwend en dit veilig monteer.
3. RAM-installasie: Open the clips on the DDR5 DIMM slots. Align the notch on the memory module with the key in the slot. Press down firmly on both ends of the module until the clips snap into place. For dual-channel operation, refer to your motherboard manual for recommended slot pairing.
4. M.2 SSD installasie: Locate the M.2 connectors. Remove the M.2 screw/standoff. Insert the M.2 SSD into the slot at an angle, then gently push it down and secure it with the screw/standoff.
5. Installasie van grafiese kaart: Open the EZ-Latch on the PCIe 5.0 x16 slot. Align your graphics card with the slot and press down firmly until it is fully seated and the latch clicks into place. Secure the card to your case with screws.
6. Moederbordmontering: Install standoffs in your PC case according to the ATX form factor. Carefully place the motherboard onto the standoffs and secure it with screws.
7. Kragverbindings: Connect the 24-pin ATX main power connector and the 8-pin (or 4+4-pin) CPU power connector from your power supply to the motherboard. Connect SATA power cables to storage devices if applicable.
8. Voorpaneelverbindings: Connect the front panel headers (power button, reset button, USB ports, audio jacks, LED indicators) to the corresponding pins on the motherboard. Refer to the motherboard's silkscreen labels for correct orientation.
