   do you guys install the graphics card then put the motherboard onto the case, or the other way around?

     @lapin I put the PSU in first, then the motherboard and connect the PSU to it and then everything else onto the motherboard.

     @lapin I usually install motherboard first then connect, but I could see some logic to this. Probably doesn't work very well trying to get the graphics card to fit into the rear slot while also trying to position the motherboard.
     And then it probably covers at least one screw anyway, which, being a videocard, you probably don't want to ignore.

     > do you wipe or just let it crust and flake off?

     It seems like you're asking which goes first, milk or cereal.

     I mean, I guess if your graphics card doesn't block the motherboard screw holes it's possible, but that just seems so much more difficult unnecessarily.

     Is it some kind of challenge?
