Except the important stuff, like grounding studs and 8-16-24 power pins which kind of go either way if its a bad psu.CrackinDomes wrote: »99% of computer parts can only be plugged in one way. And only fit in specific slots. Really Legos are more challenging.
The power/hdd/stuff cables are kind of a pain too, but a lot of chassi builders ship with a little assembled thingey now.
Not sure if they changed the RAM standard by now but you used to be able to force them in turned the wrong way. Not gonna burn it obviously but attaching RAM is a *****, and troubleshooting if you don't know you've done it wrong.
Anyone can build a PC alone after the first time, but for that first time they're gonna need someone who already did it to avoid the critical issues. -
Let me guess restate my OP. Anyone can build a PC. Will it turn on? Is the other question that would pose a problem.Except the important stuff, like grounding studs and 8-16-24 power pins which kind of go either way if its a bad psu.

Lol I'm 15 and I've been building pcs since I was 7 I've only ever had one failed attempts at building a pc and that was cause the company who I bought the psu off sold me a broken one XD
First pc I ever built was a Pentium 3 then my first gaming rig at the age of 10 was a Pentium 4 3.2ghz with 4gb ram and a 1gb GPu :P now I run a core i5 2600 that's the home rig and the LAN party rig is my core 2 quad baby -

Well for a country boy like me I don't even know what half of thoses things mean. Let alone even attempt to buy all the correct parts and put it together and make it work. I can't even plug all the cords into my pc properly. I had to have my sister show me how to download crossfire when I was 13... and I'm 16 now and still dont know **** about pc's
