I recently purchased all the components I need to build my first PC after doing a ton of research. Despite being excited, I'm really anxious about actually putting it all together. Has anyone here managed to build a PC with little to no prior knowledge? I'd love to hear your tips and advice!

Don't forget about YouTube! There are endless tutorials that walk you through the entire process step-by-step. Just find a video that matches your components and watch it a few times before starting your build.
Building a PC can be daunting at first, but it's actually not that hard! Just take your time and follow the instructions from your motherboard manual. Make sure you have a tidy workspace with good lighting to see everything clearly.
Take it slow and follow the instruction manuals carefully. I recommend finding a video guide that shows someone building in the same case you have, as it really helps with understanding cable management and where everything should go.
I get your worries! I was nervous too when I built my first PC. Just remember, most people who build PCs started with zero knowledge. You're not alone! If something doesn't work right away, don’t panic; it could just be a loose cable or something simple.
Good to know I’m not the only one feeling this way. I’d rather not mess anything up!
I’ve watched a ton of videos already, but I’m still worried it won’t go as smoothly as they make it look!
