5) Install and Set Up the Power Supply
One additional thing that's nice to take care of before we install the motherboard: the power supply. Orient it with the fan facing downward (so it blows out the filtered opening in the floor of the case), then guide it into the PSU bay at the bottom of the case. The four screw holes in it should perfectly line up with openings on the rear panel of the case; secure the power supply with screws. Because our power supply is modular, we'll also need to install the cables we'll need to hook up all our components. These include a six-pin PCI Express (PCIe) cable, a SATA power cable (preferably one that terminates in three separate plugs, or more than one cable if necessary), and a four-pin Molex power cable. Everything else you need comes preconnected to the power supply.
