After unboxing the ASUS Republic of Gamers wireless keyboard in my previous video, I decided to unbox and install the wireless mouse to go with it: the ASUS ROG Pugio II Mouse!
Strangely, when I got this package from Newegg, it was an international delivery. I have NEVER unboxed a computer component overseas. Usually, it is delivered domestically. It took about 2-3 weeks just to get this mouse in the mail surprisingly! I have tried everything just to track this shipment!

If your motherboard does not have one, you can get an adapter. Here is a good example of an adapter:

Here is a quick video of me unboxing a Samsung M.2 NVMe 512GB Pro SSD and installing it in my computer. It is very simple to do. It is strongly recommended that you install the NVMe BELOW the graphics card instead of near it. That way heat does not conflict between the two. It also will not put the SSD at risk of overheating.
To install it, you have to put the screw hole in the desired M.2 slot so that it holds in place. Afterward, you have to put in the M.2 slot at a 30-degree angle, then press down on it so that it lines up with the screw hole. After putting it in place, screw it down with the tiny screw that came with your motherboard. Do NOT tighten it to where you strip the screw, but make sure it is tight enough so that the SSD does not go anywhere.
M.2 SSDs are a WHOLE lot faster than generic SSDs! They are perfect for ultimate computer performance!
For demonstration purposes, the motherboard I am using is an ASUS Z270G Strix. Don't worry, this applies to all motherboards with M.2 slots.

HP Touchscreen 15-ba113cl Operating System: Windows 10 Processor: AMD Quad-Core A10-9600P Memory: 12 GB DDR4-2133 SDRAM
PLEASE NOTE: When doing a factory restore, it will erase everything off of your laptop and reset it back to its original out of the box settings. You are doing this at your own risk. It is STRONGLY recommended that you back up your laptop first before doing this process.
ALSO REMEMBER: Do NOT have anything plugged into the laptop such as an ethernet port, a mouse, or any external devices as it will cause problems during the process. The charger, thankfully, does not count. It is in fact recommended that you have the charger plugged into your laptop when doing this.
Getting to the Recovery Manager in this video involves pressing down the Shift key while restarting. It is also possible to access the Recovery Manager by pressing the F11 key repeatedly while it is booting. If you wish to do that, follow the instructions on the laptop screen.

If you have a portable PC and you just want to get a small heatsink in your case, the Noctua NH-D9L for sure is your solution. It is very low-profile, fits REALLY good with the Antec P50 chassis. In fact, it would fit in any kind of chassis that have a CPU height limit of 130mm.
The Noctua NH-D9L may look small in general, but it is still a powerful heatsink. It even comes with separate fan holders. This way if you want to install any additional 80mm fans to it, you have that ability as well. It also comes with a noise reduction adapter so you can lower the decibel level in your computer for a more quiet experience!
Another benefit to the heatsink itself is it does NOT conflict with tall memory. As seen in the video, you will notice it does not conflict with the Corsair Vengeance RGB memory. This, however, implies for all kinds of tall memory.
In this video, I will show you unboxing and how to install the be quiet! Pure Wings 2 80mm fans inside an Antec P50 chassis. This will work for any chassis that have 80mm fans built in.
