i'll break it into paragraphs and probably link to that post. I personally don't really like the line method, I think the medium spot in the middle and tiny spots in the corners make a better application. But it would be nice to provide different options. I'll do updates Wednesday or Thursday, I have a mid-term in an hour, a Calc 3 test tomorrow and a C++ mid-term wednesday plus drivers safety lol

Well, I'm going to be making my first build and I wasn't sure how to go about it. I have indeed watched a few vids, and other tutorials (plenty actually). The part which I will be most worried about is when inserting the CPU, it just worries me that its so fragile xD
Ahh well a few more weeks and I should have enough money to buy all my stuff, but I'm still under the decision making for parts so any help with that is gratefully appreciated.

I was too. I've actually only done one custom build. I've never installed an amd processor, but it's pretty easy. It's actually the easiest part of the build imho lol
