2. Persediaan dan Pemasangan

Proper installation is crucial for the stability and performance of your system. Ensure you have a clean, static-free workspace and refer to your PC case manual for specific instructions regarding component mounting.

2.1. Persediaan

  • Alat Kumpul: Phillips head screwdriver, thermal paste (if not pre-applied to cooler), anti-static wrist strap (recommended).
  • Buka Pembungkusan Komponen: Carefully remove the CPU, motherboard, RAM, and other components from their packaging. Handle components by their edges to avoid touching sensitive contacts.
  • Baca Manual: Consult your PC case manual and any specific cooler installation guides.

2.2. CPU Installation (AMD Ryzen™ 7 7700X)

  1. Buka Soket CPU: Locate the AM5 socket on the motherboard. Lift the retention arm to open the socket.
  2. Align CPU: Carefully align the triangular marker on the CPU with the corresponding marker on the socket. The Ryzen 7 7700X is a Land Grid Array (LGA) CPU, meaning pins are on the motherboard, not the CPU. Do not force the CPU into the socket; it should drop in easily.
  3. Tutup Soket: Gently lower the retention arm until it clicks into place, securing the CPU.
  4. Sapukan Pes Terma: If your CPU cooler does not have pre-applied thermal paste, apply a small pea-sized amount to the center of the CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS).
  5. Pasang Penyejuk CPU: Mount your chosen CPU cooler according to its specific instructions. Ensure even pressure and secure attachment.

2.3. Motherboard Installation (MSI MAG B650 Tomahawk WiFi)

  1. Pasang I/O Shield: If your case requires it, install the motherboard's I/O shield into the case opening from the inside.
  2. Pasang Papan Induk: Carefully place the motherboard into your PC case, aligning the screw holes with the standoffs. Ensure the I/O ports align with the I/O shield.
  3. Secure Motherboard: Screw the motherboard into the standoffs using the provided screws. Do not overtighten.
  4. Pasang RAM: Open the clips on the DDR5 memory slots. Align the RAM modules with the slots (notch alignment is key) and press firmly on both ends until the clips snap into place. Refer to the motherboard manual for preferred slot configuration for dual-channel memory.
  5. Pasang SSD M.2: If using M.2 NVMe SSDs, locate the M.2 slots (often under heatsinks). Remove the heatsink, insert the SSD at an angle, then push it down and secure it with the provided screw or latch mechanism. Reattach the heatsink.
  6. Sambungkan Kabel Kuasa:
    • 24-pin ATX Power: Connect the large 24-pin power cable from your power supply to the motherboard.
    • 8-pin CPU Power (EPS): Connect the 8-pin (or 4+4 pin) CPU power cable to the top-left of the motherboard. The MSI MAG B650 Tomahawk WiFi may have multiple CPU power connectors; consult the motherboard manual for optimal configuration.
  7. Sambungkan Kabel Panel Depan: Connect the power button, reset button, USB ports, audio jacks, and LED indicators from your case to the corresponding headers on the motherboard. Refer to the motherboard manual for exact pin layouts.
  8. Pasang Kad Grafik (GPU): Open the PCIe slot latch. Insert your graphics card into the primary PCIe x16 slot until it clicks into place. Secure it with a screw to the case. Connect any required PCIe power cables from your power supply to the GPU.
  9. Sambungkan Peranti SATA: If using SATA SSDs or HDDs, connect SATA data cables to the motherboard's SATA ports and SATA power cables from your power supply.

3. Arahan Operasi

Once all components are installed, you can proceed with the initial boot and operating system setup.
