Is there any quick outline on how to build a PC?

 

My build is going to be:

 

 
CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor  (£244.94 @ Aria PC) 
Motherboard: MSI Z97 PC MATE ATX LGA1150 Motherboard  (£64.74 @ Aria PC) 
Video Card: Zotac GeForce GTX 970 4GB Video Card  (£255.59 @ Aria PC) 
Case: NZXT Source 210 (White) ATX Mid Tower Case  (£31.45 @ Scan.co.uk) 
Power Supply: Corsair CX 600W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply  (£54.12 @ CCL Computers) 
Total: £759.72
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available

Once I get all the parts, how do I know what cables need to be connected to the motherboard and what screws are needed to go into the case?

Thanks a lot man, will check that out

He also has more build tutorials, the new more recent one's might be a bit easer to follow.
