This is a dual-chamber case which means it's basically split in half. Take the power supply out of its box. With this Corsair PSU, you'll find the standard power cables and the mains power plug. There's a large fan on it, this mounts facing outwards with the mains power facing the rear and the internal plugs facing the front of the machine. Put the power supply on the mini shelf at the rear of the case and push it against the back of the case.
It should line up so several screw holes showing where there are appropriate holes on the case for attaching it. The relevant screws are included in the case box. Take your motherboard out of its box and remove it from the anti-static plastic bag it comes in.
We find it's a good idea to use this as a mat to lay the motherboard on top on so it doesn't touch or scratch anything underneath while you work. Ensure the motherboard manual is easy to access - it's very handy to reference, especially when it comes to plugging cables into the right places. It's a good idea to read through this first to get an idea of where everything is and what plugs in where.
The CPU is one of the easiest components to install, but you do need to take care doing so. Forcing the processor into the motherboard can result in damaged pins and a broken CPU.
Position your motherboard in the same way we have in the photos. Look closely at the housing and you'll see a small arrow in one of the corners of the socket where the CPU sits.
If you look at the CPU itself, you'll see a tiny little gold arrow pointing down to one of the corners. Most of the time, that arrow points to the bottom left of the socket, so that's where it'll go. The next step is to remove the protective cover from the motherboard. This is clearly labelled and covers the slot for the CPU. Lift the lever arms to release the shielding and pop the cover off.
Note how the lever fits as this is how the CPU will be held securely in place. Place the CPU in with the arrow in the correct corner and gently slot it into place. There's no need to force it, the arms will do that for you as will the pressure from the heatsink. The next job is installing the RAM. We're putting two sticks of RAM into two different slots on the motherboard. You'll see from markings on the motherboard and instructions which slots you need to fill.
In this case, A2 and B2 are the first slots to install. First, push the clips down at the edge of the slots, this unlocks them ready for the RAM sticks. Next, take the RAM out of its box and line it up with the correct slots. You'll see how it should fit in fairly easily. As you push the RAM in, the clips at the ends of the slots that will make a satisfying click when it is fully inserted.
Don't force it or use too much pressure or you could risk damaging the RAM and the motherboard. The RAM we're using is Mhz but it won't function at that level as standard unless you activate this setting. See the motherboard manual for instructions on how to do this. Alongside the RAM, the M. These drives get power directly from the motherboard and transfer data that way too, so there's no need for pesky cables. On this motherboard, there are three slots for M.
The location of these slots is fairly obvious too as they're located under heatshields. You'll need to unscrew this shield from the motherboard by removing the appropriate screws.
These slots are capable of holding PCIe gen 4 and gen 5 drives. You can fill those up and use the included Hyper M2 card to install two additional drives as well. With the cover off you can install the drive. The drives slot in easily and this motherboard has a convenient clip to hold it in place too. You can use one for Windows, one for games and one for other things - video, photos, game captures, whatever floats your boat. Because they're smaller than traditional hard drives, they're easier to fill up so it's worth having a few.
You've now down everything you can easily do outside the case, so it's time to move onto the main business of fitting it all in the case. Take your case out and lay it flat so you can see the inside easily. You should find some stand-off screws inside the motherboard case. These can be used to fit the motherboard. On this case, these stand-off screws come pre-installed but that might vary from case to case.
There are several screws that essentially act as the bottom half of the screws you'll be installing to hold the motherboard in place. The stand-off screws ensure the back of the motherboard doesn't fit flat against the back of the case. Different sized cases take different sized motherboards so the layout and number of stand-off screws might differ but the principle is the same. It's worth noting that this case can take various different sized motherboards, so fitting might vary.
In this Lian Li case, if you're installing an ATX motherboard like we are then you'll need to first fit the extra bracket that's included in the box as that supports the back of the motherboard. There are instructions in the box showing you what to do here. Before mounting in your case, it's easiest to set up the Noctua cooler beforehand as it gives you more room to install things and plug in cables and such. With this installation, we need to set the cooler in an unusual position due to the setup of the motherboard VRM.
You can find out more about that here and info about the LGA installation as well. The install process is fairly straightforward. There's a kit that includes the securefit backplate and the pins that fit through the front of the motherboard. Make sure this is positioned and pushed through the rear so it is facing vertically with the four small holes at the top and bottom. On the front of the motherboard, pop the blue spacers over the pins, then the mounting bracket over those and attach them with the thumbscrews as shown in the photos above.
Then apply some thermal paste to the CPU before applying the cooler itself. You also need to remove the included fan from the radiator before mounting the cooler so you can access the tension screws on either side that then connect to the pins on the supporting bracket. Seat the radiator down gently, then tighten the screws with the included tool, a few turns on each side taking care not to overtighten. Once that's in place, replace the fan so that it faces in a way that pushes the hot air up and out of your case.
You can then plug in the cable from it to the CPU fan header at the top of the motherboard. To install the motherboard simply line it up with the hole at the back of the case and the stand-off screws. We find the best way to do this is to lower the motherboard into the case at a slight angle with the ports pointed down towards the holes they'll be going into first. As we mentioned earlier it's easiest to do this when the top fans aren't installed as you have more room manoeuvre.
Put the motherboard in at an angle and then lower it gently down onto the stand-off screws. This should result in you being able to see the holes of the stand-off screws through the holes on the motherboard. These holes will be shown on a diagram within the motherboard manual. They're also easily identifiable by the small silver dots around the outside of them.
Use the supplied screws to put the correct amount into the holes and tighten the motherboard securely onto the case without overtightening. To install SSDs, the easiest way to do it is to install them on the back of the panel that also acts as a cable shield at the rear of the case.
This panel can be unscrewed and removed to fit two drives on it. These types of drives need to be powered by a single SATA power cable from the PSU and then attached to your motherboard using the supplied cable. There are two types of cable supplied with the motherboard - one that's flat at both ends and another that's flat one end and bends degrees at the other.
Standard platter-based hard disk drives are installed in a caddy that in turn slot into bays in the bottom rear of this case. Unscrew a thumb screw at the rear and you can pull these caddies out. This is probably a long-awaited update, but I assure you that this is not the last change prepared by us for the next 3 months. Let us know if everything with the new limit works as intended.

Since the entire process is very complex and includes an almost unlimited number of variables, we will just focus on some of the basics that will apply in every scenario here.
If the following sounds like gibberish to you, you may be better off buying a gaming computer. While many serious gamers choose to build their own, you can still buy a custom built PC that fits all your needs without spending an arm and a leg if you know where to look.
But if you are ready to take on the challenge, here is a quick guide on how to build an extreme gaming PC and what you will need to consider. This is always the first question that must be addressed, and just about everything that follows will depend upon how much money you plan to invest in your new PC.
If the CPU is your new PC's brain, the motherboard is the nervous system and other vital organs that keep things running smoothly. Skimp on a motherboard at your peril. There are no less than four M.
On top of that, you get access to cutting-edge networking goodness, too, including 10Gbps and 2. If you want more options, then check out our list of the best gaming motherboards. This rig has a beastly CPU, and yes, it needs overclocking. Liquid cooling is highly recommended when you're trying to get the most out of Intel's unlocked enthusiast chips, and the 10th Gen Core i9 processors require it. It's reasonably easy to install and features a large mm radiator with a pair of mm fans.
Once everything is installed, having a small water block on your CPU instead of a massive air cooler makes things look much cleaner. You'll need a large case capable of housing the radiator, naturally, which we already took care of above. But even with the X62, you may run into thermal limitations.
If you're serious about pushing the i9 K to its limits, you'll want to consider going with a fully custom liquid cooling loop. That's beyond this buying guide's scope, but know that even a good AIO cooler likely won't allow maximum overclock with the i9 K. Even here, with our extreme build, we can't help but keep a vague eye on value for money, and with the release of the Ti, Nvidia has basically retired the RTX when it comes to gaming.
It's hardly a budget option. Even with that installed, you'll still have to worry about whether the games you play will use both GPUs. Hint: most don't, and support is only dwindling further as time marches on. Even ray tracing is on the table, especially if you're happy to turn on the modern magic that is DLSS 2.
Here are the best graphics cards you can buy right now. There are many memory options, and speed is more about bragging rights than actual performance, but we love the look of G.
Besides G. RAM has reached the point where most modules work well, so it's often a question of price—and color, if that's your thing—rather than minuscule performance differences. Unless you're going for record overclocks, in which case, go nuts on the fastest DDR4 you can find. Need other options? Here's the best RAM for gaming in The Sabrent is not quite as bandwidth-friendly as some other PCIe 4. The Sabrent's speed and capacity mean you can have a fast, capacious SSD boot drive without having to pick a slower option for data storage.
If you're capturing a lot of footage or want to have all your games installed at any one point, the Sabrent Rocket Q is a genuinely impressive drive. These are the best SSD for gaming options right now. A wise man once told us never to underestimate the power of the dark supply.
