Quick and Easy

question that is....perverts! Anyway, I was thinking about getting a new motherboard and cpu but I've never put together a computer before on my own. I was just wondering how hard it is to hook up all the right things without toasting everything. Do the instructions make it an easy process or is it kinda tricky? I can do simple stuff as it is and I fiddle around inside when I need to but I don't want to lose $$$ and time for being stupid.
Just thought I'd ask!

its pretty straightforward, most of the dumb dumbs on this board can do it, im sure you'll have no problem.

All the info I would need about setting it up would come with the mother board, right??

Not necessarily. Motherboards MIT (made in Taiwan) are notorious for thin, tech-y manuals with poor English translations but they have gotten a lot better over the years.

They are NOT user manuals on how to build PCs, but more of a reference guide. If you're not comfortable with working inside the case, you might want a better n00b manual. I believe some case manuals actually have better diagrams, but I could be mistaken (most peeps recommend Antec cases).
