-Slot graphics card into riser
-Attach the card. It must not have
protrusions past the bracket edge
-Install CPU, cooler, memory, and
M.2 drive onto the motherboard
-Attach motherboard to the tray and
plug in the PCIe riser
-Bend female end of riser to form a 180 degree turn
-Bend the middle section at an angle two times to put
the female end in place and secure with screws. Leave 5
mm between the middle bends to prevent “stacking”
-Avoid making repeat bends as this will stress the wires
