I wish I had photos of ALL the problems I've had with this build so far.
Dropping the screws for the motherboard heat pipe and checking the manual for screw size to see that it says "use screws that came with motherboard".
Not remembering to pull the plug on the power supply before removing RAM. No power switch on the power supply, so plugging is the way to go... which means that then the cord drops off the back of the desk because it barely reaches... which means that then you get to crawl around under the desk... again.
Screws not cooperating for the expansion slots.
Cable not reaching for the optical drive.
And TONS of mistakes with the sleeving. At least all the cuts I got were fairly minor. I'll be buying some good scissors soon so that next time when I do sleeving, it'll be a bit easier. And some calipers, too, for more precise measurements.
I sure hope that nothing else needs to be RMA'd.
