Here’s an example of a hyper-detailed guide designed in markdown to walk me through whatever task that I propose. Format it like below so I can copy-paste this into Obsidian and check off each tiny step as I go! ✨

The example below is a request to "create a step-by-step guide to help me build the best PC possible with the inventory I have."

Tools & Safety

  • ⚠️ Anti-static wristband (or touch a metal chair/faucet first!).
  • 🪛 Screwdriver (comes with your case).
  • 🧼 Clean workspace (no food/drinks nearby!).

Step 1: Open the Case

Goal: Get inside safely without scratching the glass!

  • 1.1 Place the HYTE Y70 Touch case on a flat table.

    • Glass side faces DOWN (to protect it).
    • Back panel (solid metal) faces UP.

  • 1.2 Find the 4 screws on the back edge (right side).

    • They’re silver and about the size of a pea.

  • 1.3 Unscrew them with your screwdriver.

    • Turn LEFT (counter-clockwise) until they’re loose.
    • Put screws in a bowl or cup so they don’t roll away!

  • 1.4 Slide the back panel toward the back of the case.

    • If it’s stuck, wiggle it gently – don’t force it!

Step 2: Install 140mm Fans (Intake)

Goal: Add fans to pull cool air INTO the case.

A. Side Fans (2x140mm Reverse Blade)

(Reverse blades hide ugly brackets!)

  • 2.1 Grab 2x reverse blade fans (thick black frame, mirror edge).

  • 2.2 Find the side bracket (vertical metal grid behind the glass).

  • 2.3 Position the first fan:

    • Shiny infinity mirror faces IN (toward the glass).
    • Wires (black cables) face the BACK of the case.

  • 2.4 Screw it in with 4 screws (one per corner).

    • Turn RIGHT (clockwise) until snug. Don’t over-tighten!

  • 2.5 Repeat for the second fan below the first.

    • Leave a tiny gap between them (about the width of a pencil).

B. Bottom Fans (2x140mm Reverse Blade)

  • 2.6 Flip the case over (glass still faces DOWN).

  • 2.7 Find the bottom fan slots (long slits near the floor).

  • 2.8 Slide in the first fan:

    • Mirror faces UP (into the case).
    • Wires face the BACK.

  • 2.9 Screw it in with 4 screws (like the side fans).

  • 2.10 Add the second fan next to it (leave a small gap).

Pro Tip: Add Rear Exhaust Fan

  • 2.11 Take the 3rd 140mm fan (normal blades, not reverse).

  • 2.12 Find the rear exhaust slot (round vent at back-top of case).

  • 2.13 Screw the fan here:

    • Mirror faces OUT (away from the case).
    • Wires face IN.

  • 2.14 Test airflow: Spin the fan gently with your finger.

    • Air should blow OUT (feel it on your hand!).

Step 3: Install Light Strips (Bottom)

Goal: Add glowing RGB under the glass! 💡

  • 3.1 Unpack the TIETI light strips (they look like glow sticks!).

  • 3.2 Peel off the sticky tape on the back.

  • 3.3 Stick them along the bottom edge (under the glass):

    • Start at the front corner (near the power button).
    • Run them toward the back (avoid covering fan slots!).

  • 3.4 Plug the RGB cable (thin, 3-hole) into the Jstincal splitter.

    • Splitter looks like a tiny octopus with 5 arms!

  • 3.5 Plug the splitter into the motherboard’s 5V ARGB header:

    • Find the header labeled "ADD_GEN2" (check your manual if lost!).

Step 4: Connect Everything

Goal: Make fans and lights talk to the motherboard!

A. Fan Controllers

  • 4.1 SL-Infinity Controller (for side/bottom fans):

    • Plug fan cables into the controller’s ports (they snap in!).
    • Connect the PWM cable (4-pin) to CHA_FAN on the motherboard.
    • Plug the USB cable (flat, rectangular) into the NZXT USB Hub.

  • 4.2 TL Controller (for LCD fan):

    • Plug the LCD fan into Port 2 of the controller.
    • Connect its USB cable to the NZXT Hub.

B. NZXT USB Hub

  • 4.3 Plug the hub’s USB cable into the motherboard’s USB 2.0 header:

    • Tiny pins near the RAM (check manual!).

  • 4.4 Connect the hub to the PSU with a SATA power cable (L-shaped).

C. Light Strips

  • 4.5 Confirm the splitter is plugged into "ADD_GEN2".

Step 5: Test the Lights

Goal: Make sure everything glows! 🌈

  • 5.1 Ask a grown-up to help plug in the power cord.

  • 5.2 Press the power button (top-front of case).

  • 5.3 Use the TIETI remote to cycle colors:

    • Press MODE to change colors.
    • Press +/- to adjust brightness.

  • 5.4 If lights don’t work:

    • Check if the splitter is in "ADD_GEN2".
    • Ensure the light strips are turned on (tiny switch on the strip!).

Final Check

  • ✅ All fans spinning?
  • ✅ Bottom lights glowing?
  • ✅ TL LCD screen showing animations?

Step 6: BIOS Update

Here's a simple, step-by-step guide to update your ASUS ProArt X870E-CREATOR WIFI BIOS safely, even for first-time builders:

What You Need

  • 💾 USB flash drive (8GB+ recommended)
  • ⚡ Stable power supply (use a UPS if possible)

Step 1: Prepare the USB Drive

1️⃣ Format the USB drive to FAT32:

  • Right-click the USB drive in Windows File Explorer → Format → Choose FAT32 → Start.
    2️⃣ Download the latest BIOS:
  • Go to ASUS ProArt X870E Support Page.
  • Under BIOS & FIRMWARE, download the latest version (e.g., Version 0505).
    3️⃣ Extract the BIOS file:
  • Right-click the downloaded ZIP file → Extract All → Save to your USB drive.
  • You should see a .CAP file (e.g., PAX870ECW.CAP).

Step 2: Enter BIOS

1️⃣ Power on your PC and immediately press Delete or F2 repeatedly.
2️⃣ Navigate to Advanced Mode (press F7).

Step 3: Update BIOS via EZ Flash

1️⃣ Go to the BIOS update tool:

  • Click Tool → ASUS EZ Flash 3 Utility.
    2️⃣ Select your USB drive:
  • Use the dropdown menu to find your USB drive with the .CAP file.
    3️⃣ Start the update:
  • Select the BIOS file → Click Yes to confirm.
  • DO NOT TOUCH THE PC until it reboots (~5-10 minutes).

Step 4: Verify the Update

1️⃣ Re-enter BIOS (press Delete/F2).
2️⃣ Check the BIOS version:

  • The main screen will display the new version (e.g., 0505).

Troubleshooting

  • ❌ BIOS won’t recognize the USB?
    • Reformat the USB to FAT32.
    • Ensure the .CAP file is directly on the USB (not in a folder).
  • ❌ Update fails?
    • Try a different USB port (use USB 2.0 ports first).
    • Redownload the BIOS file (corrupted download).

Pro Tips

  • 🔄 Reset BIOS settings after updating:
    • Go to Exit → Load Optimized Defaults → Yes.
  • ⚠️ Never unplug power during the update – it can brick your motherboard!

Why Update?

  • Fixes compatibility issues (e.g., Ryzen 9000/8000 CPUs).
  • Improves DDR5 RAM stability.
  • Adds security patches and performance tweaks.

You’re all set! After updating, your motherboard will work smoothly with your new hardware. 🎮💻
