Once the memory (RAM) is installed it is time to install the motherboard into the case.
It should be reasonably obvious which way round the motherboard is going to fit into the case. All connectors for mouse, monitor etc. should point rearward. Offer up the motherboard to the case and see which of the mountings align.
You may have spacers provided, if so, now is the time to install them.
Ensure that any apertures you require in the case for the mouse, monitor, keyboard etc. are free. You may need to remove a cover plate or snap away a portion.

Secure the board in position with the supplied screws.
Check your work. Ensure that the board does not ground to the case in any inappropriate places, including around the screws.
You can now install any additional boards and ports to the case according to the manuals provided.
Connect power cables, cables for LEDs (hard drive, power etc.), any additional items such as speakers.
