Building, The Steps.

[LOST]

So I have my computer parts and will soon be building it when my case comes in, (It was damaged on arrival so I had to send it in). I was just wondering what all I should know while putting these parts together. For example, before I didn't even know you needed thermal paste. I need steps and tips for putting this computer together, as I don't want to ruin anything.

Make sure you use anti-static gloves when building the computer - it is something often overlooked. That's a good budget PC, and you'll find it will allow you to game quite well.

This is the BEST guide to build a PC EVER.
It's easy:
First do an External build which mean you get you motherboard and install CPU and RAM and the GPU connect them with PSU cables, turn the PSU on and turn the PC on, you should be able to see alll your componets making noise and spinning, if so, give yourself a high-5 then unbox your HDD, SSD, Optical drive, and the case, open the case and put the SSD and HDD in place, then the Optical Drive then, install the PSU and the motherboard into the case (Remove the cables from the motherboard before and better remove the GPU too) and then put the GPU in. Connect the cables, do your cable management and then turn on your PC!






BTW, isn't this build what I suggested? I am sure I did!
Oh, I suggested it here http://www.sythe.org/technology/1507461-build-help.html

lol? you dont need special gloves.. :S Build the pc on wooden floors, and wooden bench and ground yourself(touch a piece of your case) or get a antistatic wrist strap. why spend money on shitty gloves.
