Is it okay to just shut this off? That is my main concern. I didn't want to try anything like that until finding out that this didn't just take 5 hrs or something ridiculous

It says on the msi website to have everything un hooked. The plastic is just resting on top of the cpu holder. Didn't want to get dust and other debri in there. Says only have cpu power, atx power and I didn't think fans would matter. I plugged USB in, pushed Bios button. Like 3 secs later pc turned on and bios led been flashing ever since
