Pc build guide

I know I should just follow the manuals but I was hoping for a basic overview guide putting the installation in order just to make sure I don't anything up. Does anyone know a up-to-date guide (unlike the ones I've found :damn which I can use for my core 2 duo build (coming monday )

Thanks y'all

Haynes do a manual actually putting a system together is easy-peesy tbh, put the motherboard in, then the memory, cpu, hard drive, cd drives, PSU, then the heatsinks, then wire everything up......then youre ready to go

Guide to pc building, kinda

Toms hardware have lots of guides and I think they have done some in the recent past on building pcs as well as watercooling and overclocking.

Hope im right and it helps

yeh but thats no fun and they dont always tell EVERYTHING. I remember reading a review of a lubic DIY case kit and the reviewer got soo annoyed because the manual would say do 1,2,3,4 and he would do these steps then it would say and don't forget to do this before step 2. So he had to undo steps 2,3 and 4.

That said you're right its a doodle but when something goes wrong it helps to have a forum to turn to.

In fact it's about time that mrapoc actually did a guide based upon his build experience
