Wrap-Up
Nice job! You have just completed the most challenging aspect of building your own PC. You have connected the CPU to the MOBO and kept the CPU from overheating thanks to the CPU-cooling fan attachment. You have also connected the fans, front-panel controls, and power supply to the motherboard.
In the next chapter we will identify and attach our fast RAM and storage devices. The RAM will provide working memory space for PC applications to run, while our hard drives will give us long-term storage for our programs, media files, and other data.
