One graphics card with 32 GB of AI memory. A computer around it with twice the RAM of the store-bought one. You build it. You own every part. It costs less.
Lay the motherboard on its cardboard box. Lift the small metal arm beside the square socket. Hold the CPU by its edges and line up the gold triangle on its corner with the triangle on the socket. It drops in with zero force — if you're pushing, it's rotated wrong. Lower the arm.
The cooler ships with paste already on its cold plate — don't wipe it off. Center it on the CPU, screw down a little at a time in an X pattern, then plug its fan into the pin labeled CPU_FAN.
Both RAM sticks go in the 2nd and 4th slots counting from the CPU. Skipping slots is correct — the diagram is printed right on the board. Push until both latches click. They only fit one way.
Open the tiny metal plate on the board's top M.2 slot (between the CPU and the long slots), push the SSD in at an angle, lay it flat, screw the plate back. No cables. Done.
