Name: ___________________________________________ Section: ____________________

I. Learning Objective:

Assemble computer hardware in accordance with established procedures and system

requirements.
(TLE_IACSS9-12ICCS-Ia-e-28)

Subtasks:
1. identify the steps in assembling system unit;
2. perform the steps in assembling system unit; and
3. show interest in assembling system unit.

Time Allotment: 6 hours

II. Key Concepts:

Disassembling and assembling of computers is a large part of a technician's job. As a technician,

you will need to work in a logical, methodical manner when working with computer components.
As with any learned trade, computer assembly skills will improve dramatically with practice.

Functions of the System Unit

The main function of the computer system is to hold all the other components together. The
chassis protects the sensitive electronic parts from the outside elements. Most system units are
upgradeable. You can perform various types of upgrades such as adding a card, or a second
hard disk drive.
The computer system unit front part contains various ports required by a user frequently. These
are the USB ports, audio ports, optical disk drives, and the power button. At the back of the
system unit, you will find a number of other ports. These are for peripherals such as the
monitor, keyboard, mouse, Internet connection, and a wide range of other peripheral devices.

Major Components of the System Unit

These are some of the major components of the system unit. To see any of these, you have to
open the chassis or the system unit. Before opening the system unit, it is important to follow
ESD precautions.

These are the parts of the system unit that you need to assemble:

1. Processor (CPU)
2. Computer Case
3. Optical Drive
4. Memory (RAM)
5. Power Supply
6. SATA Cables

Steps in Assembling System Unit

Step 1: Open the Case

/screw-case-58070be53df78cbc28bd647d.jpg.

Remove the outermost screws from the case the ones that are holding the side panels to the rest
of the case. You'll likely need a Philips-head screwdriver to remove these screws, but some cases
have screws you can turn by hand.

Set them aside, or unscrew them as far as you can if this case doesn't have fully removable
screws. You'll need to use them to secure the side panels to the case again when you're through
working inside your computer.

Three things need to be done before assembly begins:

1. Remove any parts or packaging materials that may have been shipped inside the case
(figure 6).
2. Remove the cover for the optical drive. On our case, we will be removing the cover on the
highest drive bay to mount our DVD drive as shown in figure 7. Do this by pressing in the
retaining tabs shown in figure 8.
3. Make note of the cables pre-installed in the case. These should be front panel connections
for features such as the power switch, audio jacks and USB ports. If they are not labeled,
consult the manufacturer’s documentation and label them yourself now before other parts
are installed in the case (figure 8).

Step 3: Ground Yourself

https://content.instructables.com/ORIG/F9N/D https://content.instructables.com/ORIG/F8W/

74c2719574ad3206f3a 3674b32a24a52432b704e

Put the grounding strap on your wrist (Figure 10) and connect the other end to the computer
case. If your strap is not equipped with a clip to hook to the case, find a place to wedge against
the metal as shown in figure 11. This will prevent any buildup of static electricity on your body
from damaging the computer components.

To install the motherboard, we need parts that should have been included with your purchased
components:

• I/O Bezel is a trim panel installed in the back of the case that surrounds the interface
ports on the motherboard. It should be included with the motherboard. Figure 12 shows
the contents of the motherboard box.
• Standoffs are installed in the case screw holes to create a riser that separates the case
and motherboard. The screws install into the standoffs as shown in figure 13. Screws and
standoffs should be included with the case, but it is a good idea to order these items just
in case they aren't included.

Follow these steps to install the motherboard in the case:

1. Install the I/O bezel plate into the opening in the back of the case (figure 14). It pushes in
from the inside.
2. Install standoffs in the case. The standoffs screw into the motherboard mounting holes
shown in figure 14. Check the screw hole locations on the motherboard for exact
placement.
3. Lower the motherboard into the case and align with the I/O bezel.
4. Install the screws. Figure 15 shows the motherboard installed in the case. It works best to
leave the screws loose until all of them have been started and the board is aligned with
the bezel.

Caution: To prevent damage to the motherboard it must only contact the standoffs and screws.
All of the standoffs and screws must be installed.

The hard drive is the device that stores all of your data. It is 3.5" wide and needs to be mounted
so that you can gain access to the cable connections on the back (figure 16). If that is not
possible you may need to connect cables before you install the drive. To mount the drive:

1. Find a 3.5" drive bay to install the drive in. If you have trouble finding a place to mount
the drive consult your case documentation for suggestions.
2. Slide the drive into place until the screw holes on the sides are lined up with the holes in
the case.
3. Install the screws.

Step 6: Install Optical Drive

The optical drive is 5.25" wide and is installed in the drive bay that we removed the cover from in
a previous step. Cable access considerations apply to this drive also. To install the drive:

1. Slide the drive into the drive bay until the screw holes are lined up and the front of the
drive is flush with the front of the case (figure 18). Make sure that it is orientated
correctly.
2. Install the screws.

 The CPU is the brain of the computer. It is installed on the motherboard in the socket shown in
figure 20. To install the CPU:

1. Find the corner marking that designates pin 1 of the CPU as shown in figure 19. On this AMD
brand processor, the corner is marked with an arrow. Consult the manufacturer's
documentation for specific information about your processor.

2. Lift the small metal rod next to the socket as shown in figure 20.

3. Find the corresponding marking on the CPU socket and insert the CPU so that the markings
are lined up.

4. Push the rod down to lock the processor in place (figure 21).

Step 8: Install RAM

https://content.instructables.com/ORIG/FEP/4RXB/GAA1305Z/FEP4R https://content.instructables.com/ORIG/F8G/XA61/GA

350d3da9495fbb6f22e5 =bounds&md=bb7b368c2b68350d3da9495fbb6f22e5

The RAM is the temporary memory location that the processor works from. Permanently stored
data is pulled from disks and stored in RAM while the processor works with it. The memory is
easy to install:

1. Set the RAM board in the socket as shown in figure 22. Check to see that the notch in the
board is in the correct location. If it is not, turn it around 180º.
2. Press firmly on both ends of the board to set it into the socket. Make sure the tabs lock
into place as shown in figure 23.

Caution: Pressing the boards in when the tab is not aligned could cause damage to the RAM
boards as well as the motherboard.

 1. Place thermal compound to the CPU following the instructions provided with the
compound.
2. Set the fan assembly on the CPU with mounting tabs aligned.
3. Pull the locking rod down on the fan assembly to lock into place.
4. Connect the fan assembly's power connector to the motherboard. Consult the manual to
determine proper placement.

Caution: Failure to apply thermal compound will result in insufficient cooling and will cause
damage to the CPU and/or motherboard.

Step 10: Install Case Fan

https://content.instructables.com/ORIG/FYO/T5VS/GAA13090/FYOT5
VSGAA13090.jpg?auto=webp&frame=1&fit=bounds&md=c80cfc0a1a4b3
7e72f6c6f3eeadb5ebe

The case fan is usually installed on the back panel of the case. If the fan mount is not obvious
consult the case documentation. To mount the fan:

1. Align the mounting holes by holding the fan to the mounting pad on the inside of the case
as shown in figure 25. The fan needs to be mounted so that it blows air out of the case.
2. Insert the screws from the outside of the case and tighten.

Step 11: Install Power Supply

https://content.instructables.com/ORIG/F3A/BMM7/GAJAA19A/F3AB

With all of the components installed in the case, the jungle of wires can be daunting. It is
important to consult the motherboard manual in order to make sure proper connections are
made. There are two kinds of connections, power and data.

• Every device that has been installed needs power. In figure 27, the power supply
connectors are shown. The motherboard has two power connections, and there are two
connectors specifically for SATA devices (drives). The other connectors will run fans and
other non-SATA devices.
• Data cables connect drives and front panel devices to the motherboard. Please consult the
motherboard documentation for the exact placement of connectors.

Warning: Incorrect connections can damage components and cause bodily injury.

Step 13: Wrap-up

https://content.instructables.com/ORIG/F1W/3EBH/GAJAA1C7/F1W3
EBHGAJAA1C7.jpg?auto=webp&frame=1&fit=bounds&md=2b7e3c341ba
66fbff9e0709f6348c804

Now that the components are completely installed, the last thing to do is to reinstall the side
panels on the case. The computer is now ready to be turned on and to have software loaded on
it. If the computer has problems starting up, check all component connections and mounting to
make sure that you have hooked everything up correctly. Consult individual component
manuals for specific troubleshooting information if problems persist.
