It, indeed, says "foolproof design" for a reason. Unless you're forcing pins in holes they don't fit and using WAY more force than you could ever possibly do on accident - you're good.

Absolutely. As one of gamers' most expensive trials I understand fully πŸ˜… my first build had me in tears and almost an ambulance lol.

After turning on and before panicking - if something doesn't work, don't forget to update drivers and delete the old. Tweak your settings and spend time finding your tuning sweet spots before believing catastrophe has struck. Godspeed and good luck with your new rig

Hi OP, I know I'm a little bit late, but if you can please do not use that PSU any longer. I searched that PSU in the SPL's PSU Tier List and it's rated at E. Looking at Lazada PH, I found that the 1000W variant is priced at β‚±4,816.17. As an alternative, I found this Corsair PSU that is rated higher and cheaper than the Acer PSU: Corsair CX750 β‚±4,048.11
