PC Beginner needing help :D

No worries just an FYI Wifi routers can actually extend further going down than going up so it's always good practise to put them as high as you can. Better to have it upstairs than down anyways
Not for my house, the wiring is absolute garbage (technicians words) haha

The trackers are just extras for more immersion in VRChat, their 300 for a bundle I think so not to bad.
There's better ways to set fire to £300.

The Knuckles with the Index give more fun.... ahem.... finger.

Being able to shake your foot in VRChat would grow old fast I think :D

Very true XD Alright I'll take your advice no trackers!
Yes yes of course! Thanks again.
Um shall I pay for home installation in case I fudge something up or is installation no biggy? sorry for the extra questions...

Nah mate don't pay for that, you just have to plug it in and if you have any questions there is always someone here who can help

It's also really good practise to get used to opening, cleaning and poking around in your computer as you're going to have to do it sooner or later

It's not as daunting or scary as it seems I promise

Morning gents. So my pc arrived a few days ago and well it's been a bit hectic at home recently so had no time to get it out the box let alone read the booklets it came with, was wondering if it's okay to leave it in there for a few more days? till everything's settled down at least.
Sorry about my constant pestering... And thank you for your time!

Yeah, it's fine, do be aware though, you only have 14 days return period so it's best to check it out before then just in case you decide it's not right.

Hello. Finally gotten round to unboxing this pc, sorry about the image quality I'm using a webcam.. my phone apparently grew legs and went on a marathon.

Couple questions please. There's a lot of wires not connected to anything so does that mean... I have to open it and connect them?
It came with this gigabyte warranty ''Register your product for a 4-year warranty'' Is this necessary or just a advertisement?

Thank you everyone for the help in putting this together, I could not have done this without all your help! and sorry it took so long for me to start setting it up. :D

What do you mean wires not connected to anything? Do you mean the spares that came in the white box?

These, the 2 pics on the left have 2 wires they're named PCle and coming of the graphics cars. The last pic has 1 wire not connected to the motherboard? Again so sorry for the quality..

They're just spare terminations off the pcie PSU cables that are used on the GPU, no need to do anything with them

That's on the understanding that the GPU has indeed got PSU inputs into it?
