Building My First PC - Parts Problem

    Hi, after getting advice here a couple of weeks ago I ordered the parts for a new PC and I'm trying to build it now.

    I havent gotten very far and have a question already, the Coolermaster Wavemaster Back Panel doesn't match up with the MSI K8N Neo Platnium Back Panel.

    Why is this? Their both ATX.
    What should I do now?


    Thanks,
    Unforgiven

    There should be a backpanel with the mobo. You just have to replace the one on the case with the one with the mobo.

    It's an easy job. They just po out if you push them.

    Push from outside in usually and then fit the one that come with the mobo. Its just kinda clipped in by the rim of the metal. Shouldnt need much pressure.

    Doh, thanks for that lads, I have it mostly put together now, psu, mb, ram, gc, cpu, heatsink.

    I bought all the parts from komplett but they've stopped doing samsung hard drives in the last couple of weeks so I had to order it from jes last wednesday so its going to take ages.

    If thats not bad enough, for some reason jes left the company name out of the delivery address, so it has my name followed by the name of the industrial estate.
    I cant edit the order or cancel it so im just going to wait till it reaches the country and give gls a ring.

    Chances are ill have more questions when it comes to turning the pc on but for now, thanks.

    If this is your first job chances are something may have gone wrong. if you hit power and nothing happens, dont panic (at first anyway) :)

    Congrats.

    Love that case. Was going to buy one when I was ordering mine. It would want to be for the money though.
