Recently i decided it was time to upgrade my PC and after having quite a few expensive quotes i decided to build one myself. It was actually amazing how much money i saved and how much fun i had, i would have done it sooner if i knew how easy it was.

Is there anyone else out there who, like me has seen the light?

That's what im scared about mounting the mobo, the rest is a doodle except u have to be careful with the CPU aswell. Don't quite know how to wire everything to a PSU.

The motherboard is a pain in the backside, oh a word of advice for people who are going to build a PC. Make sure you put the processor and memory onto the motherboard before you mount it in the case, as it'll safe you a lot of hassle.
