I am not lying to you. Three years ago, I used this guide for my build.

Oh come on, building a computer is like playing legos for christ sakes, you have to be blind.. everything is labeled or color coded or made to fit only one space... **** it's ussually all three of those. The only problem would be getting componets to work together, ie picking out the right stuff. But that's what we are here for.... xD
