Great tutorial. Can’t wait to build mine once all parts get in.
Also, the 3rd m.2 screw is for the other m.2 nvme that’s located on the backside of the motherboard. Cheers!

You can (and should due to superior performance) use the AMD cooler that came with the CPU in this unit. It fits, you just need to unclip the decorative cover from the cooler.
Also, you can just click the enter key instead of putting in a password for Windows if you dont want to use that function.

Having all the components to build my first ever DIY PC. The computer is for home use, some random video editing and Photoshop. The CPU is AMD Ryzen 5 2400G. I have Kingston DDR4 RAM 16GB 2666MHz CL 19. Do you think it is better to get 3200MHz? Will I feel big difference in kind of use?
