Need Help Building Computer

wacK

I'm not completely sure if this is where this post should go, but recently I bought all of the parts to this build (http://pcpartpicker.com/p/4Q7ZVn) and an OS. I've never built a computer before, and I've watched videos on how to do it, yet I'm too spooked to do it myself. Those of you that have, could you possibly give me any tips and tell me if it's as difficult as it might look/sound. As of now, I'm not sure of whether I should build it myself or try to find someone to build it for me. tyty x333

First Congratulations on getting all the parts ready. :D You are on your way to building you first PC by hand.

Second, don't worry too much, just make sure you have an unti-static strap on. Read the Mobo manual. And begin by installing your CPU to your MOBO. Use the YT videos as your guide. It's not that hard. :)

 

Well good luck and godspeed.

Wait never mind, check the Hyper 212 Evo box for one, usually they come with one to be sure.

He already bought the parts and they're pretty solid, nothing worth changing.

If you watch a lot of videos (as I do), especially build logs it helps a lot. The process got stuck in my head quite quickly. I also do have a history of picking things up quickly, so I don't know how it is in your head.
