I'm putting together my first PC tomorrow and had planned to have a friend help me, but we can't sync our days off. I know a guy who builds PCs professionally and charges $100, but that feels a bit steep to me. I'm leaning towards doing it myself, but I'm using a horizontal micro ATX case which makes me worry I might hit a snag without someone to guide me. What do you all think? Here are my specs: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X, Jonsbo CR-1400 EVO CPU Cooler, Asus TUF GAMING B850M-PLUS WIFI Micro ATX Motherboard, 16GB DDR5-6000 Memory, 500GB and 2TB NVMe SSDs, ASRock Challenger OC Radeon RX 9060 XT, and Jonsbo V12 MicroATX Case. Any advice would be appreciated!

Honestly, dive into building it yourself! Keep your manuals handy, and don’t hesitate to Google or check YouTube for guidance. Plus, the $100 fee isn’t unreasonable since it might include cable management and OS setup, but you can certainly learn a lot by doing it yourself.
The case you have should make the build process pretty straightforward. Don't let the worry of breaking something cloud your decision. Just take your time, and if you get stuck, step away for a bit. By the way, check out this helpful guide: [YouTube link]. It could really ease your mind!
I’d say go for building it yourself! It's a fantastic learning experience and you end up forming a bond with your machine that you wouldn’t get otherwise. Plus, it saves you some cash.
Just go ahead and build it! It’s really rewarding to see everything come together. If something doesn’t click, just take a breather and refer back to your manuals. You can definitely reach out for help online too, if needed!
