SUMMARY OF ASSEMBLY STEPS
Before starting assembly in the case, test all other components for functionality. If using a
PCIe gen 4 graphics card and motherboard with the included PCIe gen 3 riser, the
compatibility mode must be set to gen 3 in BIOS. Doing so will require performing the
first boot with integrated graphics (if available) or with the graphics card plugged directly
into the motherboard without a riser.
