1
00:00:00,799 --> 00:00:08,000
so my customer care Department asked me to do a quick video because we've been

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:10,639
having some problems with 5800 and 5900

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:13,599
series video cards in shipping and shipping them with systems we've

4
00:00:12,040 --> 00:00:18,920
actually witnessed a couple of situations where because the video card

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:24,320
has such a heavy cooler on it it can actually snap the PCI Express slot like

6
00:00:22,240 --> 00:00:29,240
split it in two when the weight of the video card is is is put on it that way

7
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:33,800
so with some customers who are buying these video cards in cases that you know

8
00:00:31,519 --> 00:00:38,160
we might not be able to pack as well we've we asking customers if they would

9
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:41,879
be comfortable if we Shi the system with no video card but otherwise completely

10
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:45,600
assembled and then ship the video card separately so I'm doing like just a

11
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:49,680
quick guide on how to install a video card if you've never done it before so

12
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:53,399
our team will prep everything for you so all you really have to do is make sure

13
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:58,559
that it's lined up with the correct slots here in the back and the correct

14
00:00:55,120 --> 00:01:00,359
slot so it'll be a PCI Express 16x slot

15
00:00:58,559 --> 00:01:05,840
which will look something like that and then you can take your 5800 series video

16
00:01:02,879 --> 00:01:10,880
card just position it in exactly the right place so just line it up so that

17
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:17,040
the fingers at the bottom of the card are not under but rather directly into

18
00:01:13,479 --> 00:01:19,600
the PCI Express slot push down firmly

19
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:24,280
okay then what you'll need to do is if your case uses thumb screws then you'll

20
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:29,600
use the thumb screws to secure the two holes up at the top of the io plate so

21
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:33,600
one and then if you do not have thumb screws with your case then you'll need

22
00:01:31,119 --> 00:01:37,600
to use a screwdriver to secure both of those screws this is what holds it in

23
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:40,439
place and so you can see that I mean okay with the only things holding a

24
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:45,719
video card in place being these two screws and this plastic clip here it's

25
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:48,399
not exactly the most robust solution so you can see there's quite a bit of room

26
00:01:47,159 --> 00:01:51,680
to move there that's why they're proposing this and then the last thing

27
00:01:50,439 --> 00:01:56,719
that you'll need to make sure that you do is plug in the power connector or

28
00:01:54,479 --> 00:02:01,880
connectors which are either located at the back of the video card just like

29
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:05,880
that uh or on the top edge of the video card so you can see there's one clip on

30
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:10,640
the one side and I'm positioning it so that that clip plugs right into the

31
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:14,319
video card until it goes all the way in on both of them thank you for checking
