Here are the very basic steps for assembling the computer. We recommend looking for videos so that you can get more in-detail and actually see how this goes together. This guide is just a very basic overview. Safety Tips - Ground yourself before handling components (use an anti-static wristband or touch a metal part of the case) - Work on a clean, flat, non-static surface - Keep magnets away from your components - Handl...")
