How to Build a PC.
if you’re doing it for the first time, it’s not impossible to do. Don’t worry if you don’t know where to start. We’re here to guide you through the process. We’ve been building computers for years, so we can share our expertise and teach you how to build a PC. We’ll walk you through putting all of those expensive components together, step by step.
STEP-1 Know which components you need to buy. No matter how expensive your computer, you will need the following components for your project:
- Processor — Acts as the "brain" of your computer.
- Motherboard — Serves as an interface between all of your computer's components and the processor.
- RAM — Random Access Memory. More RAM will provide more "workspace" to increase your computer's performance. Think about the RAM as a table: more RAM gives you more room for doing things on that table. Less RAM is like having a smaller table!
- Hard drive — Stores data. You can buy a traditional hard drive, or you can opt for a more expensive solid-state drive (SSD) if you want an exceptionally fast drive.
- Case — Necessary for storing and cooling your components.
Note: You can buy all these components on your Nearby Computer Stores or Online
Stores like Amazone, Flipkart. etc.
Research every component you intend to purchase.
- Find a processor. The processor (or CPU) is the core of your computer's performance. The higher the processor's speed in gigahertz (GHz), the faster it can process data. Many applications use multiple threads at the same time, so more cores can improve performance.
- The processor will usually entail a large part of your budget.
2. Get a motherboard that fits your processor. You'll want to select a motherboard that is compatible with your processor, which can be accomplished by checking the socket of the CPU and motherboard. Other aspects to look for in a motherboard include the following:
Multiple RAM slots support for graphics cards if necessary (PCIe x16 slot)
3.Purchase RAM. RAM is responsible for storing data from running programs, so having enough of it is important. Before buying RAM, be sure to check both your processor and your motherboard for the type of RAM which is supported.
There is a limit to how much RAM your computer can use, and that limit is dictated by your processor's capabilities (typically 64GB) and your applications. If a program only stores 1GB data in the RAM, more RAM won't accelerate the task. Typically 8 GB is encouraged, with higher-end gaming machines benefiting from 16GB.
Depending on your motherboard, you'll usually buy either DDR3 RAM or DDR4 RAM. The type of RAM that is supported by your motherboard will be noted in the motherboard's documentation.
4. Buy a hard drive. Comparatively speaking, purchasing a hard drive is easy—most hard drives are compatible with virtually all motherboards and processors, though you may need to make sure the hard drive you find will fit in your case. You'll want to buy a SATA hard drive that stores at least 500 gigabytes and be sure to buy from a reputable manufacturer such as Western Digital, Seagate, or Toshiba.- Your average hard drive has a speed of 7200 RPM.
- Hard drives can also use IDE instead of SATA as their connections, but SATA is newer and thus supported on all modern motherboards.
- If you want a smaller hard drive with faster data retrieval, you can instead purchase a solid-state drive (SSD). These drives are significantly more expensive than most standard computer hard drives. Often they are used as a complementary drive with a larger hard drive.
- SSDs usually come with a SATA connector, with newer models using NVMe M.2 or SATA M.2. Some motherboards might not support the NVMe or M.2 standard.
5. Make sure your power supply can handle the load. The power supply powers all of your components in your computer. Some cases come with a power supply already installed, but others require you to provide your own. The power supply should be powerful enough to charge all of your components; don't worry about it being so powerful that you waste electricity by powering more than you need, as it will only output as many watts as you use and the number on its wattage is only its max capacity.
6. Pick up a case that is both functional and easy on the eyes. The case is what holds your computer components. A few cases come with a power supply included, but if you are making gaming build then getting a separate power supply is recommended, as the power supplies that come with cases are usually not very high quality.]
- The size of the case will be based on how many drives bays and card slots it has, as well as the size and type of your motherboard.
- Be sure to select a case that can fit all of your components, including your hard drive.
- Cases might obstruct air flow causing some higher-end components with larger power draw to overheat.
Finally, it's time to assemble your PC.
i"m very Excited. are you?
Open the case. Unscrew the side panel (or slide it toward the back of the case) to do so.
Install the power supply. Some cases come with the power supply already installed, while others will require you to purchase the power supply separately and install it yourself. Make sure that the power supply is installed in the correct orientation, and that nothing is blocking the power supply's fan. The power supply will usually go near the top or the bottom rear of the case. You can determine where the power supply is supposed to sit by looking for a missing section on the back of the case.
- Prepare your case. You may need to knock the plates out of the back of the case to fit your components into the correct positions.
- If your case has separate shelving units to hold your hard drive, install the units using the included screws.
Secure the motherboard.
Once the standoffs are installed, place the motherboard in the case and push it up against the Backplate. All of the backports should fit into the holes in the I/O backplate. Use the screws provided to secure the motherboard to the standoffs through the shielded screw holes on the motherboard.
Plugin the case connectors. These tend to be located together on the motherboard near the front of the case. The order in which these are connected will depend on which is easiest. Make sure that you connect the USB ports, the Power and Reset switches, the LED power and hard drive lights, and the audio cable. Your motherboard’s documentation will show you where on your motherboard these connectors attach.
Install your hard drive. This process will vary slightly depending on your case, but should typically go as follows:
- Remove any front panels on the case (if you're installing an optical drive, you will usually install it near the top of the case).
- Insert the hard drive into its slot (again, usually near the top of the case).
- Tighten any screws needed to hold the drive in place.
- Plug the hard drive's SATA cable into the SATA slot on the motherboard.
Connect the power supply to any necessary components. If you haven't already connected the power supply to components which need power, make sure that it is connected to the following locations:
Finish your computer assembly. Once you've placed and connected the various internal components for your computer, all that's left to do is ensure that none of the wires interfere with circulation and close up the case.
- Motherboard
- Graphics card(s)
- Hard drive(s)
- If you bought a cooling system, you'll want to install it before you proceed. Refer to the cooling system's installation instructions to do so.
Now run your pc
- Attach your computer to an outlet. Using your power source's power cable, plug your computer into a wall outlet or power strip.
- You may first have to attach the electrical cable to the power source input on the back of your computer's case.
- Plug a monitor into your computer. You'll typically use the graphics card output that's near the bottom of the case, though some motherboards may have this port on the right or left side of the case. The output here is usually a DisplayPort or HDMI port.
- Install Windows or Linux. Windows is compatible with all PCs and will make full use of their various features (e.g., Bluetooth), but you will have to purchase a copy of Windows if you don't have a product key. Linux is free, but may not be able to use all of your computer's hardware.
- If you don't have an installation USB drive, you'll need to create one on another computer before you can install your operating system.
- Install your drivers. Once your operating system is installed, you will need to install your drivers. Almost all of the hardware that you purchased should come with discs that contain the driver software needed for the hardware to work.
- Modern versions of Windows and Linux will install most drivers automatically when connected to the Internet.
