How To Use This Manual

1.3 Preliminary Tools

"A workman must first sharpen his tools if he is to do his work well". Before you start the setup,

there are some tools that you can't spare.

Firstly, the most frequently used tool is cross screwdriver. You can use it to screw most interior

components. A suitable screwdriver can make the setup job much easier. But does any

screwdriver apply? No, we suggest a screwdriver with a magnetic tip. When you set up your

PC, the situation is very likely to happen: you accidentally drop screws into the space between

components. In case of this, a magnetic screwdriver helps attracting those fallen screws that

are impossible to reach by hands. Some screw holes are difficult to reach. At this case, we

need a magnetic screwdriver as well. In addition, the size of tool does matter. Generally, the

domestic 107 cross screwdriver is the best one.

I can get it done!!

When putting things together, you can't avoid adjusting Jumpers. In most of cases, it can be

done barehanded. But the time always comes when there is a situation hands fail to reach in

and fix the problem. You will thank God if you have a pliers on hand to avoid any hassle just

because of one JUMPER.

What is Jumper?

Jumper is something generally referred to "

Jumping wire", which is used to adjust some

functions such as FSB (front side bus), ratio, and

sound switches adjustment by causing them

short circuit.
