Oh, rule #1.

 

Order everything at once, that way you can put it all together ASAP and if something isn't right still have time to RMA it.

^ winner.

I am always a bit nervous about putting the cpu in it's socket, but that's probably normal. Especially when you have sausage fingers like mine.

Edit: Idea, @LinusTech should do a video on "why build a PC"

I was nervous about that.

Don't be, you just drop it in. You just line up the arrows

Nah, I saved up about £700 doing odd jobs around the neighborhood. It took about a year.

Yeah, first time I dropped mine off my roof into the socket but I missed, so that's why I have a fx-6300 and HD 7850, I originally had a 4930k and titan, but had to sell the titan when I broke the i7.

I have just under £700 for the whole PC not including windows or any peripherals. If you could put something together that would be helpful.

Hello guys. I want to build a PC but my parents are scared that I will break something whilst building it and the money will go down the drain. Also my father always says 'What is wrong with the PS3?'. I have told them quite a few things but they want to hear it from people who specialise in that area so I came here.

So my task for you guys and girls is to write a paragraph trying to tell them how easy it is the build and not damage a PC. Also telling them how a console is much worse.

Thanks in advance

Tell your parents "Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will".

 

I can attest to this, my parents have always doubted me and my sister whenever we tried at anything, seriously detrimental to your growth as a person.
