building a computer for dummies

[threemooses]

on a scale of one to twenty how easy is it to build a comp from start to finish.

 

[Flanker]

20 being freakin easy?

18 (A 9/10). Read the Manuals. Be careful about the risers.

 

[HAVOC]

It's super hard.... No it's uber hard... like oh my god... dont' even like try it... oh... like leave computer building up to Dell.

Cause like... Building a computer is not for noobs....

What kind of thread is this?

 

[threemooses]

In my experience with no training at all, about 15/20 that because i broke like 10 sticks of ram on my first build ever...

Spent like 300$ alone on the ram...

But it all comes with manuals, the mobo manual has almost all the info for the construction, you just need time and be calm, caz i get easily ****ed when my stuff backfires on me.

If you need help putting it together then ask around...

if u familiarize yourself with computer parts and what goes where it is really quite easy. Just open your current computer up and find out where and what everything is and how its all connected together.

i would say 12/20 (20 been the hardest)

Like a 19 or 20. Its not hard so long as you do SOME reasearch before attempting.

It's easy stuff. The hardest thing about it (which isn't that hard) is getting the knowledge to know what hardware works best for your needs and such. That takes more time in studying than it takes to actually put a computer together.
