Dan Bull - How to Build a PC lyrics

Welcome back to rap school, I'm Dan Bull
Your tutor and I’m about to walk you through
How to build a computer
Now, despite what you might believe
About building a PC
Well, you see, it's really flipping easy
It's kinda like a puzzle where you
Put the different bit's together
There’s only certain places that the
Kit will fit the setup
And I'm gonna take you through
It at a comfortable pace
So let's cut to the chase
You open up the case and have a look inside
That's what the detachable cover's for
That panеl stuck just to the back
And up will store the mothеrboard
Your stuff will all link up to that
But as I talk there's bugger all
Because of course we've got it all spread
In a muddle on the floor now luckily
This sequence is pretty easy to do
First thing you're gonna need to
Do is seat the CPU
Once you’re sure there’s no
Static and everything's unboxed
You can check your motherboard’s
Processor socket's unlocked
Align the triangles on processor and socket
Then slowly lower it into the
Slot and lock it, got it
Now you'll place the thermal paste
Where the heat sink sit's
Gotta get it right first time
You can't rethink it
Squeeze a bit the size of
A pea right in between
Then line up the heat sink with the
Screws on the side to complete
Apply some low pressure right
On the processor
And tighten the screws without
Any ooze, no stress, huh?
Now, you heat sink’s attached to a cool fan
Connect that to the motherboard
And that bit's just gone all to plan
As a reward here's something
Straightforward: installing RAM
Just pop 'em in the slots until the lock
We' rolling now now it's time to go back
To the tower from prior
Look in the back, attach
And then patch in the power supply here
Now, once you've screwed it in
It's best to check you're able
To connect the bit's you're yet to
Place to their respective cables
But don't plug 'em in yet 'cause just
In case it's best to wait
Until the next bit sit's in place so
You can check they fit the case
Come on, relax
It's a precaution just avoiding heart attacks
Now screw in the motherboard with
All the other parts attached
Then locate the ribbon named
The "twenty four pin"
Bet you can guess why it's called that
Even if you've just only walked in
That connects the motherboard and PSU
And if it doesn't you'll be
Surely seeing the issue
Next the CPU cable's either
Eight or four pins
Like how you and your mates may
Or may not have foreskins
And unlike that unfortunate punchline
I forced in it's of great importance to make
Sure that they all fit
So put in the cable to
The case's IO panel section
And any remaining wires that
Require manual attention
Then locate the bay your primary hard
Disk drive will sit in
Slide it in affix the power
Supply via SATA ribbons
Tighten the screws till the device
Is sitting snug and tight
Then redo the steps described
For any secondary drive
Very nice, congratulations
Parts of that were hard
It requires patience to come out
Without being battle scarred
Thankfully it's rather painless to kit
Out the graphics card
Just clip it in the PCI
Lane and that's your lot
Some require external power
Some are self-reliant either way
It's likely you'll be fine
Without help required
Now if it still looks like the
Build was made by amateurs
Just wait until we deal with
It with cable management
Tuck away the random ribbons down the bay
Beside the main array
And make them stay away from
Sight with cable ties, hooray
It's time to power up
Your newly made computer
Only to find it failed to
Boot up, that's okay, it's usual
If there's no signs of life it
Could be time to troubleshoot it
Otherwise have fun and use
Your lovely new kit
