As per my previous thread. I have purchased all, and assembled the hardware's after all parts have arrived.

If anyone's interested, this one the final rig.

MSI B150M Bazooka Plus + i5 6500 439
Avexir Core (2 x 8GB) 2400Mhz Red LED 130
Palit GeForce GTX 1060 Dual 3GB DDR5 230
Samsung 850 EVO 2.5Inch 250GB SATA III SSD MZ-75E250BW 103.9
Superflower Leadex Silver 80+ Full Modular 550W 109
Deepcool Dukase V2 Window ATX Case 59.91
Windows 10 Pro N 43
Samsung 24" Full HD LED Monitor S24F350FHE 127

Total: $1241.81

Had a overall savings of $150-200, due to the recent sales and coupons on online shopping.

Now, I have some questions regarding the casing and fans.

1. What the hell is this?

Do I just plug to the speaker port in the mobo?

2. Is this side exhaust? And the other side intake?

3. How do I open up the front portion of the casing? :s13::s13:

4. I have 2 of the above fan to place into the casing. But not sure how should I place it with regards to the airflow...? :s22:

Been far too long since I last assembled myself. Tried my best on the cable management. maybe can be improved but good enough for now.

1. Should be the motherboard speaker
2. There should be a arrow at the side of the fan to show the direction of air flow

Yes, but eh do I just plug it to the mobo will do?

I don't see any arrow. Probably cause lousy fan.

1. u can find a Jpanel something or some sort of panel 4 pin sfor the mobo speaker.
2. exhaust
3. iirc u have some space at the bottom of the front case to pull open
4. 2 at the front or 1 front 1 back 1 top.

lastly...u should have gone for MSI B150M Motar artic. which makes the case and mobo more white theme.

1. Yeah, I found it already.
2. Alright, I have placed the fans liao.
3. I need to take out the bracket for CDROM then use force to force it out.
4. I'm using 1 front, 1 top and 1 back.

Actually, the casing supposed to be black. but OOS so no choice take white. Mobo bought before casing.

White looks quite bad when it gets dusty.

that's a good price you got for the graphics card

For SSD Crucial MX300 would have been a better choice
