Hi, is it better to assembly the PC in the following order:
1. Install the PSU to the case.
2. Install case fans if there is any.
3. Insert RAM and NVMe SSD to the motherboard.
4. Insert CPU to the motherboard.
5. Install Noctua heatsink mount.
6. Install NH-D15s.
7. Insert GPU (if available at the moment of assembly)
8, Put the big and heavy motherboard wtih all the components installed into the case.
Q1: Is it recommended to update the BIOS when I turn on the machine for the first time? As you know, sometimes updating the BIOS causes troubles.
Q2: Before putting everything into the case, is it better to turn on the components to see if there is any DOA?
Q3: When I made my first PC 20 years ago, I put the motherboard into the case first before inserting the components. These days the heatsink and GPU are so big. Not sure which order of assembly is better.
