Building a pc is not hard to do at all. I learned by myself years ago, back when you had jumpers on motherboards and master/slave etc to worry about. These days it's even easier. Just remember to ground yourself, and put the ram/cpu in the mobo before putting the motherboard in the case.

Oh, and do some cable management otherwise you may end up with stray wires hitting fans etc, which is annoying.

otherwise it's very easy. Anyone can do it.

till things go wrong...
pebcak/rtfm/rma hell etc.

then it becomes fun...

Usually with simpler builds, components are less likely to be defective. Plus NewEgg has excellent customer service so they'll handle most problems during his return period.
