1. Install the I/O shield that comes with your motherboard into the rear panel opening of your case. 2. Install motherboard standoffs in your case, aligning them with the mounting holes on your motherboard. 3. Carefully lower the motherboard into the case, aligning the rear I/O with the I/O shield. 4. Secure the motherboard with screws in all available mounting points (typically 6-9 screws). 5. Connect the 24-pin ATX power connector from your PSU. 6. Connect the 4-pin or 8-pin CPU power connector near the processor socket. 7. Connect front panel headers: power button, reset button, power LED, HDD LED, and USB headers. 8. Connect case fans to motherboard fan headers or PSU. Important: Ensure all standoffs are properly installed - missing standoffs can cause motherboard flex, while extra standoffs can short circuit the board.
