cpu, ram, heatsink on mobo, remember 212 will twist slightly and ram before that cuz you may cover up slot with heatsink

psu sdd and hdd into case figure out placement of where you want them

then drop mobo in

then gfx card in

then run cables

Only thing I can think of that would help, other than what's on that video, is to install the Hyper 212 EVO back plate, to the back of the motherboard, before installing the motherboard into the case.

You CAN attach the Hyper 212 back plate afterwards, but it's much easier to do before installing the motherboard. :)

make sure you put in the i/o shield first before the motherboard

and the little golden triangle shape on the cpu relates to the triangle that's on the motherboard, face them in the same direction.

otherwise everything is really easy

front panel connectors are typically the most annoying part

Yeah, use the I/O shield that comes with the motherboard, NOT the one that possibly comes with the case. :)

/e Also, since you were wise and bought an ASUS motherboard, there is a little plastic part they come with, that makes the case front panel connectors easy...It's called the Q-connector.

Mostly, follow the directions in your motherboard manual.

I do as well, but, for a first timer, it might be safer to just install the back plate while the motherboard is outside of the case.
