Best how to video I have seen yet. I shared this with my buddies, I have watched a lot of how to and this is just excellent short and to the point.
thx man in 2021 still i'm gonna use that rig scematics of yours. Simple and useful
I've searched so much to get the proper powering order of the dual psus. Thank you :)
You are a Star. Loved the way you explains every details. Great Job Brother. Thanks a lot.
Ram Neil thank you!
Sata connectors are rated for 54 Watts Max and Nvidia rates TDP in the 1080 Ti as 250 Watts max (which I know is not necessarily the power being consumed) but as the GPU can pull up to 150 Watts from 6 Pin connector or it can draw from Pcie riser as well in any combination depending on usage, OS, app etc why risk so much on a premolded Sata connector instead of a proper 6 pin? As an electrician, I commend you for grounding your mobo, and additional equipment ground into the case would be awesome as well, thank you for a great detailed clearly explained video.
lol, man, am I getting old. I saw the title and wondered how does one use a computer to mine for minerals? Then, I thought it might be some game called Mining Rig. Ah, Bitcoin.
@ jobe - Im having an issue, i dont know if its the motherboard or the flashdrive with smos config. Everytime i boot the system, it doesn’t go through smos. Instead it always going to system config window. I have a h110-d3a mobo... thank you in advance
How does the rig option compare by investment per Hash and kwh per Hash to the asic equipment?
really great Video thank you
Although, video is old, great instructions. Rig is always rig, so, weather you put 1060 in it, or 3090...it's the same.
hi, what the plus of configuring Max Link Speed as gen1?
BTW the plastic cpu cover pops off when u close the retention arm with a cpu in the socket. Taking it off beforehand you have a higher chance of damaging the socket if you slip manually taking it off.
Quality video thank you!
Thanks Ronald!
Good job
Nice 👍🏻 video
Good work!!!? amazing and super nice video
only you are sharing something new on net
after watching your video i subscribed
your amazing chann.. THANKS.
Hey Jobe, was wondering if you had any tips for why my h110 d3a board wont power 6 cards. I am running linux/hiveos and for some reason I run into a gpu driver error that isnt able to find the temps and high load averages when I use a 6th card. 5 cards run no problem though...
I know it's an old video but why did you plug the first GPU onto the PCIEX1_1 and not onto the PCIEX16?
Hey great videos. But I heard that powering your Pcie with a Sata cable is not the ideal way to go since they can only hold 54w. Since the pcie riser needs 75w.
Hello, I have a problem with the same power supply. when I plug into 6 Ping nothing starts. do you use 6 Ping for your installation?
GA-H110-D3A with 6 1060 6GB GPUs on WIN10. Only 2 GPUs are recognized by
the system Few months ago i was able to mine with six of them and until
then i have a problem. what should I do?
perfect video you speak for all
Thanks Pierre!
Good stuff bro
Thanks man
also can you use it to render video?
I’ve watched a few of these videos and yours are the best by far! Love the safety tips... Thank you so much. Brand new to mining.. Are you still producing videos on this subject?
First post and first question: Can I build this and set it up with lets say 2 cards and then expand/add more later? It's a matter of pricing/budgeting. Rig with 2x 1080 Ti vs Rig with 3x 1070 Tis and so on.
Elaina Strongbow yes i think you can do that. Just need to ensure you have powerful enough psu
Yep you can add cards as needed

can u pls suggest me 3060 6 card Mather board should get full mega hash 49, n processor name
great video
Hello man please can you help me with power of risers? I have problem on my rig
I have a problem: when i start the mining software (lolminer) the total mh/s caps at the value of one GPU
At the moment i got 3 1660 super on the rig but the speed of each one is only 10 mh/s
Anyone knows how to fix that...
I have the same motherboard with 6 identical AMD cards. The system works with 5 GPUs but not 6. I had to disable miner mode and enable 4G encoding for it to boot and run 5 GPUs. The problem is definitely a BIOS setting. I do not have several years to try all of the variations by trial and error. Can you tell us what works on your board specficially, please?
Thanks for the Video! I like the ground wire idea. Right now i'm using shelving. I will try to use your guide for the casing thank you. Will this fit if I have a 7 GPU mining rig or I need to make it longer? Thanks.
Thanks Jayson! You can use this for 7 GPU mining you will just space your GPU's closer together, if you are predrilling holes to secure the GPU's to the frame just space them closer together and add a 7th. I left plenty of space in this rig for the GPU's to breath and they can certainly be spaced closer together. Good luck!
great vid really well explained for beginners like myself starting out, bit of noob question how long will it be before 1080ti become old and useless nonprofitable to mine, like when 1090ti or 1100ti's come out , i am half afraid start buying all the hardware knowing my luck i would accumulate all gpu's then setup by that stage newer gpu's be out 1100ti ?
Thanks Daniel. That is a great question, I have been reading that the new GPU's may be coming out in late July or August. These new cards will surely be more beefy as described in the link below. One thing to consider is that when they are released, the current generation of GPU's will hopefully be cheaper but should still be good for mining. If anything, if you are wanting to start mining now, I would suggest just getting one or two cards and then in August consider buying some of the next gen cards that come out.

Hello I've watched the video it's very useful thanks a lot. i hate to question i will appreciat if you answer them. Q1: why did you use Dual power supply connector ? i can connect one PSU to motherboard and 2 or 3 GPU and other one directly to PGU !
Q2: When you applied USB Raiser at the bottom of them where the connected to GPU there is sponge base should i removed dose the heat will affect them?
and final note dose placing PSU upright where the fan side faces GPU affecting cooling for PSU and GPU in this case we can put FANS thanks a lot.
I used the dual PSU connector for ease of use, you can manually short the PW pins on the secondary PSU if needed. The foam at the bottom of the PCI Risers if fine to leave. It is made of a material that is insulated so will not get to hot, over time they may peel off so you can safely remove them if you want. The foam is there to protect against shorting from beneath the board but if it is suspended there should be no worries. I have had no issues with heat from the PSU's going up to the PSU's but I do have a fan on my miners. Thanks!
One question
Did u recieve the amount u spent on making this build through mining?
Best video i've seen
excuse me, with that equipment you can mine bitcoin gold, and how many solutions does each GPU raise,
Thank you.
Nice video. I want build my own rig, can you share details of your rig dimensions. Ty
Hi!. Great Video. Thanks a lot. I have problems to connect 6 GPU with one PSU HX1200 Corsair. I'm not sure if it is possible, because I think therein not enough cable PCI-e. Can U help me?. Thanks in advance!!
Hey MonMPSB thanks! In your situation you might consider using Molex to PCIE adapters. Depending on if you need 6 or 8 pin PCIE you can find Molex to PCIE adapters online. Here are a couple links I found to some on Amazon.
Molex to 6-pin PCIE - www.amazon.com/Molex-Express-Graphics-Power-Cable/dp/B000KU3QD8
Molex to 8-pin PCIE - www.amazon.com/Athena-Power-4-pin-PCI-Express-Cable-PCIE4628/dp/B0032MT0OU
Good luck!
Hi Jobe, Nice video by the way. Was wondering and im going to use simplemining. What i need to know do i put the operating system on first say Linux or win10 on the flash drive or if you familiar with simpleming do i use their tools to set up the operating system, any help would be great. Thanks.
Hey Fyertoy, I have never used simplemining but I'll have to check it out
Great job on part 2. You did a great job explaining everything, great idea on the ground wire.
I was a little supposed to see you using Windows 10 instead of something like ethos or simplemining smos. Have you tried either of those?
Thank you! I haven't tried another OS yet, I have a ton of windows 7 pro keys so I can use them for windows 10. One of these days when I have more free time I'd love to try another OS to compare performance etc.
Hi Jobe ! Really helpful video. How is it to mine with a Msi Aero model ? Isn't it too hot ? And how goes the overcloacking when you have different models of cards and some of then are pre-oc ?
Thanks
Hey Groc thanks! The MSI Aero has been running hotter than the other cards (around 80-82 without external fan)but I stuck a fan next to the rig and its running in the high 70s now. As far as overclocking, I have had luck overclocking without issue since they are all 1080's but I have not pushed the OC past +75 core,+600 memory so there may be issues when trying to get max performance but so far I have had no issues :D
Jobe ok thanks !
Thanks for this video. I saw you put a Celeron in it. Any reason? Would a stronger CPU help with the mining?
Hey Paul. The reason I used a Celeron is because it is not only cheap but for the mining I am doing with this rig a more powerful CPU would not make a difference. All of the processing is offloaded onto the GPU's so unless you are wanting to also do CPU mining along with the GPU's, you don't need a beefy CPU. For example, on this mining rig I get an average of 700-750 sol/s for Zcash per card (total between all 6 cards is about 4.3-4.5 kSol/s) and at home I also have a 1080 Ti on my personal computer, this computer at home has an Intel i7-5820k and when mining I still only get around 700-750 sol/s. I have noticed no difference in mining performance when using a more powerful base CPU.
Cool, thanks. I was more concerned about the CPU not being able to feed the cards the data fast enough; but if that's not the case, Celeron it is!
@@psperneac for anyone else curious, with just msi afterburner and the mining software my cpu use is less than 5%
did you fully consume the 1000w?
Hi Jobe, do I just plug the monitor into an open slot on the GPU, or should I rather connect it to the motherboard's on-board GPU?
Hey Andre. I would plug it into a GPU, most motherboards will disable onboard video once a GPU is installed unless you specifically change a setting in the bios/uefi.
Aren’t those sata to pcie dangerous?
Isn't two 1000 watt power supplies overkill for only 6 cards? I would think one 1200 watt unit, and for sure a single 1500 watt unit would handle this load. Why did you chose this configuration? Great video as was part 1 in this series.
Thanks David. Yeah 2 1000 watt psus is probably a bit of an overkill ;D when I ordered the psus (around late december, early january) i got the 1000ws in this video for 109 each! The 1200+ psus were all out of stock and priced at 200+ so I got them more out of them being such a deal than anything else. I also decided to go with 1080 tis for this build and wasn't 100% on their power consumption. Ive read anywhere from 200-260 watt per card on max load. With 80 Gold psus that leaves a bit of breathing room. Down the road I may replace one of the 1000w psus with a lower wattage psu and use one of the 1000w psus for another build :D
How would I calculate the proper single psu for this? Thanks
The higher wattage (>1300) PSUs are more affordable as you purchased them. Higher wattage still has the CONvenience fee.
Yeah going for the higher wattage PSU is the way to go for sure, you can then put all your cards on that one PSU
Great video mate, i start my bulild as soon as my GPUs turn up. Its been really hard to get hold of them
Thanks Felix, yeah man its crazy hard lately to get any cards. Try this site, you can set it up to auto notify you when stuff comes in stock. www.nowinstock.net/
I like how this comment is still just as true for the 30 series nvidia cards 😂😂
@@SirDiabz yeah lol
Does the power switch come with the MB or did you purchase that separately?
Hey Todd, no the power switch did not come with the MB. I forgot to put it in the video but I bought it off of amazon (www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LMZZFWO). You can also always just short the SW PW pins on the motherboard with a screwdriver as well but I like having a button :D
Nice vidéo :) Keep going. I have a question, you split power from 3 GPU? And you connect from same PSU? ✌
basically, how ever many pcie (gpu) outputs your psu has is how many gpu you can run
Are you running your power supplies on 120v or 240v? I heard using 240v is more energy efficient.
240v outlets are significantly less common in houses, so 110/120v is used
Can you mix GPUs? Currently having trouble finding GPUs. So lets say I find a single 1080 ti and I start mining with that, then a little later I find another card, say a 3080. Can the two cards be run on the same rig?
You should be able to use different GPUs in one rig unless the CPU is incompatible with one of the GPUs.
How much does this make per day?
hey man i have question its that safe using multiple conection on sata to 6 pin in powering 3 risers?
try to spread them to as many different sata lines as safely possible to not overload single lines.
Hi Jobe and thank your for your videos mate, appreciate the help :)
Also, wanted to ask you, because i'm just building my own first rig and I'm suffering a bit of paranoia reading things about powering rigs and such... ¿Do you think it's really safe to use the SATA powering into risers? I believe by this video that you're powering 3 risers x 1 SATA cable and shocked me tbh. I'm gonna use also 1080 ti's x 6 in a corsair 1600, so not much connectors left except the SATA ones to power the risers.
Also too... it's supposed those cards to use 150/180W when underpowered (it's what I do plan) so maybe 2x 8 pin can power 1xgpu+1x riser (180+75< 300W that those 2x8 pin are supposed to handle). Thank you in advance if you can give me your opinion!
It all really depends on the PSU you are using, if your PSU has multiple rails it can be dangerous to use sata to power risers because of possible loops. The PSU's I use all have a single power rail and so share a common ground inside the PSU. If you are worried you can always power them using other means. Research your PSU you are going to use and see what other miners are doing with it for peace of mind :D good luck!
I wanna start with only one GPU , but I’m in need some information to start
Thanks for this tutorial. When I power up for the first time nothing comes on the screen. I press the button advised and still nothing happens. Any suggestions? thanks
Have you tried powering the system up with no GPU's installed? Plug a monitor into your boards vga port and see if you can power it up, once its confirmed plug in one GPU and plug your monitor into it to confirm it boots without issue. Then add the rest of the GPU's as needed.
Thanks much Jobe, I'll try that.
No prob let me know how it goes
Where did you learn about this
Best how to video I've seen!
hi i want build rig with 4 cards aorus 1080ti and already have 2 x psu evga 750 gold is enough ? thank you
Hey castle, yeah 2 750 watt PSU's should be more than enough to power 4 1080ti's. Good luck!
with what software??????
super cool videos !!how many risers can you plug on a sata cable ??? :O i thought it was only 1 ! (max 75 watts per riser) tyvm !
NOONE!! Riser taking 75W and SATA only provides 54W !! NEVER User SATA or any Adapter, throw them away! You can use Molex (156W) for 1 Riser or PCIe (288W) for 2 Risers.
Never use SATA, the wire is going to burn because it takes more watt then it can provide and then u are going to burn the whole RIG or More down.
Take this advice if you planing to build a RIG
And never buy risers with SATA connector. Search for the new Versions with molex and PCIe connector so u can choose how you want to power it
i want to do it, is here someone did it? How much mining etc in a 7/24 month with this installation or same? Electric and tax prices is high in my country, is it spending so much energy?
I noticed you powered up all of your risers off one one power cable, AND they were sata. Have you run into any issues with this?
I have not run into any issues with this personally. Rig has been running 24/7 for multiple years now.
Super Video
1 question how many GPUs where you able to power off of one power supply?
I only tried to put 3 1080 Ti's on one 1000W PSU but I image you could perhaps put 4. I've read that the 1080 Ti's run around 200-250 Watt each at max but I have not tested this. You should be able to run 6 or more 1070's off of a single 1000W PSU no problem.
Jobe I was get a power cable to run 2 PSU also thanks
One question, how you attached motherboard distances to wood below?
I show how I did this in part 1. I drilled small holes and screwed the motherboard separator nuts into the wood. ruclips.net/video/DaZjnKDDjJ8/видео.html
ok this is just what i was looking for, seems I have added everything together correctly but only 1 PSU is powering up, the otherone seems to make a ticking sound and not much else lol any ideas?
Sounds like the second power supply may be either overloaded or faulty. Does it power up ok without anything plugged into it?
i managed to get it all running in the end, took everything apart and rebuilt, not sure what the initial problem was tho :/ thanks for helping to :)
Awesome glad you got it working ;D
Hi There, I have trouble installing the GPU
I enabled Mining Mode and follow your step.
But when I connect the Monitor to GPU it doesn't show anything.
Do you have any idea how to solve
Thanks.
Start by removing all but one GPU, plug into it and confirm you have video. Once you have one GPU up with video, you can add your other GPU's. You may also want to try plugging directly into the motherboards video and use integrated video. You may have to enable this in the BIOS/UEFI. Are you able to boot the computer without a GPU with monitor plugged into the motherboard?
I should thank you too much. I have a question about asus b 250 can I ask?
Yeah u can but more PCI slots would be beneficial
Hi Jobe,
I have watched you useful videos, and I am intending to build my first GPU rig using exactly your bits of advice and links you've provided.
But, unfortunately, some of these links are not working due to some missing letters at each one end.
Please revisit and fill them completely so you will be helping more and more.
Thanks
Mohamad
Hey MA A. I went through the links and found one that didn't work, the one for the arctic silver (which you can skip if your heatsink already has thermal paste on it). What other links are not working for you?
I use RX 570, RX580 and Rx470.
Is there any different between I take M.2 as a HD or SSD? Why you choose SSD instead of M.2 ?
Nice, honestly M.2 is far superior to SATA so if you want to use an M.2 SSD power to you. I didn't in this build for a budget, at the time of the build the M.2 SSD's were quite a bit more than SATA SSDs. All my home personal computer builds have M.2 NVme SSD's in them and I love em!
Thanks~BTW,
Do u ever meet openCL error?
How you solve it? I expand virtual memory to 32GB , but still have this issue sometime. Really annoyed. It makes GPU card just hang in there. Any better solution?
How much RAM do you have in the system and what is your combined memory of all your GPU's?
Jobe I have 16G dual RAM(UMAX), and my card is RX 570 8G*2 + RX 470 armor 8G
Crazy as it sounds you might try bumping your virtual memory (page file) to 64GB. If that doesn't work, try to update your motherboard BIOS. Then in your BIOS look for an option to enable 4G. What kind of motherboard do you have? What is your PSU wattage rated for?
How's that motherboard holding up? Looking to purchase the same one.
This build is still running flawlessly, been running 24/7 other than the occasional updates. Looking back the only thing I would consider doing on a new build is using a modern i7 (7700 or 8700) and supported board so that I could mine with the CPU as well.
I want to Build this rig, but, 1 GPu is good enough? i am beginner
Yeah you can start with just 1 GPU, if you do just use one power supply thou because you won't need any extra power.
I have received the graphics card (EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW2) yesterday
The EVGA graphics card is not recognized in Device Manager, under Display Adapters
I have three graphics cards installed on the motherboard including graphics card (EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW2), two Asus Strix GTX 1080 & one (EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW2)
I have exchanged slots and cables without any success only the two Asus Strix cards appear
I have even tried to connect it alone to the main graphics card slot (PCI bus 1) alone without any success.
I have also updated the Motherboard Bios and the Graphics card driver to the newest driver 391.35
You may check in your BIOS for settings to enable "above 4g decoding" and be sure to turn of the integrated graphics as it will use up a PCI lane.
Can different models of cards be used in the same rig?
Yes you can use different models of cards in the same rig
Jobe I don't understand so where does he connect the hdmi or vga Port to since the graphics cards are many ,and also does all add up inthe graphics adapter options
hi I have EVGA 1200watt p2 do you think that I can run 6X 1080ti thanks
Depending on what you mine you might be able to get away with it. If you plug in your cards at whattomine.com it will show you the average power usage for your cards for each algorithm. When in doubt you can always try to plug 5 of your GPU's in and see if its stable, if so try plugging in the other card. Good luck!
quick question do the sata cable provide enough power to the PCI-E RISER ? thank you for awesome video you just got 1 more subscriber
6x 1080ti use up to 2000 watt on Equihash (ZEC, ZEN, ZCL) and make up to 4800 sol/s
so you better use at least 1000watt power supply on every 3x1080ti
1200watt for 3x1080ti is the best choice if you would like to get the most of mining.
Pavlo Frantsen thanks for replying
Hello, i can't boot at Mining Problem, Can you tell me what i should do......
Hey Thomas. Where are you having your issue exactly? Are you unable to boot your computer up? Are the power supplies turning on, is the motherboard and CPU powering, are the fans spinning? Thanks.
Having 2 psu. Do i need to connect only pcu cable ?
Not exactly sure what your asking friend, what do you mean by only one pcu cable? You talking about a psu cable and then which psu cable?
Jobe what i am saying is i have 2 power supplies. Each psu has cpu cable. Do i need to connect both cpu cables(from psu each) together like you did with motherboard cable ?
Ahhh gotcha Andzej, sorry about that! No you just need to connect one CPU power cable from the primary power supply to the motherboard. The only cable you need to daisy chain between the power supplies is the 24 PIN power cable, as this cable has the on/off switch for the power supply itself. Does that make sense? Let me know if you still have questions and if needed I can draw up a visual illustration to help you out. Thanks!
Jobe thanks
Ive got everything connected now and seems like everything that is connected to the motherboard is working (except gpu fans) and screen mouse and keyboard not working. Any idea what potentially causing it ?
the GPU fans will come on if needed, they don't run at all times. Are the GPU lights lit up? What do you have your monitor plugged into to view the screen? Are you able to get video at all? What kind of keyboard/mouse are you using, usb or ps2 connection?
Gig9 is the new trend..!!
the sata riser not safe for sure... 3in1? GGWP
Yeah man i have already mined with both of the cards there were no problem
Yeah feels like it's either the riser or the motherboard. The other computer you tried to put 2 gpu's in, what kind of board does it have? Also what PSU are you using? Just curious.
Two of the motherboards are old but one of them supports two 2 x1 slots + one x16
Jobe and one motherboard is m5a78lm usb 3 i use this motherboard for mining
Yeah that board should def be able to handle 2 GPU's imo. Feel like its a bad riser. You able to return the riser you got or RMA it? You know the other thing you can try to test that riser would be if you have some random PCI card like a wifi adapter or a serial card or something you can plug into that PCI riser to see if it comes up or not. If something like that doesn't work on the riser then I would say its the riser thats faulty.
You are right I can try it. If I can found something like that. I will give it back to the store which i bought.
Can you also show with which program you are mining and how much you are mining a day?
Maybe you will mine with Nicehash!💪
Hey Milan, on this rig I mine Zcash. I have a video on how to setup to mine zcash, I am doing everything exactly like in that video (using local wallet, using nanopool, etc) the only difference is that instead of using EWBF as my mining program, I use dstm's Zcash miner (bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2021765.0). With the 6 1080 Ti's I average 4.2-4.5 kSol/s. Current pricing for Zcash that is around 1100-1200 a month but when not in a cyrptocurrency dip it was averaging 1400-1600 a month.
But how much can you mine, if you mine with Nicehash? Can you try it out and tell me how much, because I'm not sure if it's good to build the same one like you or another. If its earning under 20$ a day I'm not gonna build one like this, but thank you for the answer!
I'll install Nicehash on this rig and let it run to see. I'll update you with what I find :D
Hey Milan, I have nicehash running now with stock settings ( no overclocking ) and it is pulling in an average of $38 a day with current crypto prices. It peeks ever so often into the 40s and 50s. All crytpo is down in price currently so I'm interested to see how nicehash performs when prices go back up.
It makes 38$ a day but it also can to do 40-50$ a day, right??
And how do you think no overclocking, are you mining with normal Settings?
And how much does it costs to build the whole rig?
Jobe, Want to learn the next stage, How to mine the crypto currency. We need further guidance to mine the Z-Cash.
Hey Mayoom! What video in particular would you like for me to make next? A general how to mine with different pools and different coins or a particular coin? I have a video on how to mine ZCash but I'd be happy to make a video on any other coin, pool or even how to setup NiceHash. Thanks for your input!
Mate, the motherboard is grounded through the 24 pin power socket.
Man ı added a second gpu to my rig and windows even don't see my gpu.By the way the fans of my second gpu sometimes work and sometimes don't pls help
Some GPU fans don't always run, they only kick on when needed. Is the GPU lighting up if it has any LEDs? What kind of GPU's are you using? What kind of motherboard and how are you plugging the GPU into the board (regular PCI port or using a PCI extender?)
Thanks for responding dude i figgures out that my riser doesn't work at all. I have tried it on another pc and same again. By the way main board is asus m5a78l-m usb3. 0 gpu is sapohire rx 470 nitro with samsung memory
I use pcie x1 to x16
For sure man happy to help in any way I can. Yeah dude I've had bad risers, I usually buy the 6 pack and it seems like theres always at least one bad one in the batch. Is the riser powered by sata or molex? Just curious.
By molex
Did you really just daisy chain 3 sata power adapters on one PSU cable? XD

Maybe too late or not to comment, because this video is old, but really nice DiY tutorial. But I want to advice something, Grounding Loop MUST be AVOIDED. At minute 8:15 you make a huge mistake. Most common PC Towers dont ground motherboard to chassis. The grounding is done over the PSU earth pin. Grounding motherboard to chassis is not need. If you screw the PSU to the alumium rig then you're grounding RIG over PSU. The PC enclosures are RFI and EMI protections. By example: If you have a windowed tower, there is EMI going in and out of the PC Case.
You should use the same PSU for both GPU and Risers. Do NOT use different PSUs to power GPU and risers. SAME PSU for GPU AND RISER!
I want my fucking 1060 at good price.

sata is bad
I just fast forward your video and was surprised when you were installing CPU
that's surprising how people do not understand what they are doing and still try to teach others
first of all you dont remove the cover from motherbord's CPU socket, it comes off by itself when you instal the CPU and closing the CPU holder. By removing it manually you are risking droping it and bend pins or droping something inside the socket.
second of all you do not apply thermal compound on a brand new heatsink, because there is preapplied thermal paste on it !
third of all dont press the fasteners with a screwdrivier, the screwdrivers might slip off and you will damage your mobo, when you press them do not turn them, the are in the position when they just go in(from factory) and to remove the fan you need turn them conterclockwise...
wow man that's like 3 minutes of video.... I am scared what you are going to do next
