in my experience it is best to install the motherboard after you have installed the CPU and cooler. I would recommend beginning to install the power supply and run wires here and there, as that can be pretty time consuming

Matt255 was this your Xmas present?

Anyway yes you could start building no problem.  Have fun!

In regards to a hard drive or video card there are always cheap options that will allow you to have a working rig sooner than later.  Also will the cpu your dad has for you have on chip graphics?

Too many ****ing games!  Back log 4 life! :S

should i wait on the cpu before testing it or should i wait for all the other parts this is my build http://pcpartpicker.com/p/8FrDf7 but i probably wont get the rest of the parts until summer or next christmas 

you technically run your computer without a gpu for now so why wait?

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.
