HEY BOB

hi pirate and fire

big news y'all

a partially constructed computer

yeah it's my new one

dad and I are putting it together

how much RAM is that?

32gb DDR4 if I recall correctly

it's pretty good

We already put this together once, but we forgot to buy a case for it. We also didn't get fans, and I was using this very old iron coffin for a case that my dad still had from the year 1990

so needless to say the one time I tried to use it it ran like shit and got very uncomfortably hot

the case arrived yesterday, we're waiting on the fans

Looks cool, Bob!

yeah, nice component choices Bob

dont say it ma donjt say it max dont say it

do it, say it

yummers

I keep seeing this shit on twitter

no garbage I did not make this

Did you make this?

yes

I made it

thank you for your hard work as always, pirate

DEAREST PHIJKCHU FRIENDS

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS CABLE FOR

LOVE BOB

what is it connected to?

that might be your front panel cable

wait nvm

USB 3.1 Type-C header?

isnt that a 3.1 header

Weird fan cable?

yeah

looks like this https://alexnld.com/product/50cm-usb-3-1-type-e-to-usb-3-0-motherboard-19-pin-male-expansion-cable/

Bob, did it come with your motherboard?

I assume it's from the case

case probably has 1-2 on the front panel

they make cheap adapters if you don't have one on your motherboard natively

yeah it's from the case

it'll look like this on your motherboard

but if it doesn't exist

they make these adapters

yeah I see something that says usb3_34

and those plug into these

is that where this goes?

or is that where this goes

yep, that one in your hand rn

that's a USB 3.0 Type-A

okay

that goes in the USB3_34

oh I got it

I had it flipped the wrong way I think

now what about the other one

is that just extra since this is 3.0 and not 3.1?

do you know your motherboard model? or can you send a picture of the ports remaining

I suspect you don't have a 3.1 plug spot

let me see

it says

M5A99FX PRO R2.0

if that matters to you, there are ways of adding a plug spot for it but imo, I don't think it's the most important thing

so it's extra

got it

ok, this is an older board, yeah it's just extra

I don't think it's worth trying to connect it means the USB-C ports on the front of your case won't work

but I don't think that's a huge deal

yeah

this is what the rest of it looks like

aw fuck I just remembered the last time I tried to run this the audio wasn't working

where is that and how do I make sure that it works

that is either front panel or the back

yeah I plugged my headphones into it and it wasn't working
