You recently purchased components from Amazon for the U$500 PC featured in the early 2020 buyers guide. While you’ve reviewed enough tutorials to feel confident about hardware, you’re still looking for detailed guidance on your motherboard BIOS settings. Your parts haven’t arrived yet, but you want to be ready. You plan to install the free Windows version and don’t need further instructions beyond that. The motherboard in question is the MSI B360M, and you need help finding instructions for changing boot priority or similar settings. You found a video link (https://youtu.be/Lfcschg9uwU) which covers the topic, but you only need it for a 480GB SSD installation.
Welcome to the discussion board! To start the BIOS, power on your computer and press the DELETE key. You’ll need to adjust the boot order a few times—usually found in a menu at the top of your BIOS. There you can rearrange the drives or ports as desired. When first launching the system, insert your Windows installation drive first, then after installation, modify the BIOS settings to prioritize the SSD. Additionally, you can fine-tune RAM speeds by enabling XMP/XAMP and selecting the appropriate profile (like 2933Mhz). That’s about it—your PC should be ready to use. You might also experiment with CPU overclocking if you’re interested.
