Mistakes in assembling the PC (by beginners)

Assemble a PC is something that is not difficult anymore, because in addition to easy access to information, standard PC components are now likely to be easy to understand and very intuitive, as well as the instructions are very complete. but this does not guarantee the assembly process is not infallible, either intentionally or unintentionally overlooked.

It was almost a year, I assemble a PC, and every so often meet with some of the mistakes made by my colleague fellow technicians, and also some assembly errors that I encountered on my pc the correct assembly. bekaribat some of which can be fatal and potentially lead to permanent damage.

following some common mistakes I encounter based on the experience:

1. Cable management: Cable management or in terms of “relaxed” its cable tidiness still sometimes go unnoticed, I’ve often encountered cases where the power cord CPU / CPU fan on a fan-free processor, it can cause stuck on the fan power cable if both are in contact, and when the fan is not running, just 30 minutes, the system will stop because the processor stops working due to overheating. cable management in addition to having an aesthetic function (interior tidiness PC) also helps smooth air flow. then, how to organize a good cable?, unites the cable between each other, can with a wire, cable ties, or with tape, no need to hide behind the mainboard, the origin cascade cables away from moving parts and no sassy. besides, if some wires are strung together, but separately (processor fan power cable), to make it look neat, can be tricked by turning  cable that are bound to one another.

2. Thermal Paste: thermal paste / thermal compound according to the rules can only be used once, and if already unpacked, then the remaining thermal paste that sticks to be cleaned and replaced with new ones, I’ve found a PC experiencing overheating problems, initially the owner complained about his computer that so slow, after the check, in bios, processor temperature shows the 80 degrees Celsius (enough to fry an egg), whereas the processor fan is still working, after the check, the bottom of the heatsink is dry and hollow, the owner admitted to disassemble for cleaning dust on the heatsink, but unfortunately not cleaned and given a new thermal paste. Excessive heat in a long time is a major cause permanent damage to the processor.

3. Processor fan mounting: issue fan I found on the LGA 775 based board, for those who do not understand how to install, it is rather less complicated than the socket am2/am2 + / AM3, according to the user the correct way is by pressing the two pins facing each other ( diagonal) simultaneously and the two other pins are also simultaneously thereafter. but sometimes the installer forgot to pay attention to the direction of the arrow on the pin before plugging, resulting in the pin is accidentally released when the computer has finished assembled.

4. Static electricity (static electricity): Static electricity is electricity that is not moving , static electricity can be contained in the body, static electricity when conduction to PC devices that are sensitive to electrostatic, could potentially cause permanent damage. It is already common knowledge, but sometimes there just are dismissed. if not risky, to what the makers of computer peripheral products with antistatic bag wrap?

that body free from static electricity, before we can use to assemble an anti static wrist (anti-static wristband), but this item is one of the mandatory items that seemed hard to find, but static electricity can still be eliminated from the body with a simple method, ie by touching all something made of metal (for example PC cases) and a few other ways that we can see here (click)

besides the body, the goods around us can also be contained static electricity, therefore, it helps when putting the PC components (eg VGA / memory / mainboard), place the objects in which if safe (table wood, cardboard mainboard) and Avoid putting on barang2 can load static electricity (fur rugs / wool / plastic). case of damage due to static electricity and the possibility of its occurrence probability is very small, but will result in damage to reply fatal event, therefore, appropriate action is to avoid it.

5. HDD mounting (mounting the hard drive): This issue may no longer heard, but at the time of the IDE cable is still popular, I often find hdd imposed depend on 51 / 4 inch bay (the place for DVD / CD-rom) as the reason for the meeting with the CD rom, so can only use one IDE cable, it was a big mistake, because in essence, mounting / installation of the holder of each peripheral should be meeting in the case in order to avoid wobble / vibration that can be annoying, especially on the HDD.

6. Front panel connector: Some people sometimes forget to consider the composition of the front panel connector for haste in assembling, consequently, some indicators are sometimes not functioning, such as HDD activity LED / power (on) LED. although simple and very easy to memorize, in fact some user experience confusion when they wanted to put it back after unpacking their motherboards. The following basic scheme. (Updated): some specific motherboard uses a different arrangement than the usual standard is used (as shown below), and should read the manual supplied by the motherboard.

7. System / bios speaker: forgot to set up the speaker system is not very big impact, but basically the speaker system is an early indication when the computer has trouble. for those who understand, this speaker system to help in the debugging process, in order to immediately identify the source of the damage / error and promptly cope. on new motherboards, especially high-end class, the presence of the speaker system began shifting with the application of phase 7 / debug LED display that is more easily understood / interpreted.

8. Finishing: in assembling the PC there are times when errors occur, therefore it is better not immediately close the case prior to the meeting convinced the system is running properly (on) so work twice (apart pairs), and if there is something wrong can be fixed directly (for example, no cable forgot ), this is merely for the sake of time and energy efficiency.

Still there are some other mistakes, but the things mentioned above are issues that I often found and most often occurs among other mistakes that occur in the process of assembling a PC.
