    And I know a lot of people build their own computers, I am completely LOST on the idea of me building a computer... like I can't wrap my head around that at all. Am I just thinking it is harder than it really is.. or...? And I believe I can still use my monitor from my old computer so... do you think I'd be able to save quite a bit because of that?
    It's like adult lego. :/ Unless you are an idiot and force some plugs in, there's little chance of breaking your parts. There's enough youtube guides on how to do it.

    What is your current screen? If it's 1680*1050 or higher, there's no real need to get a new one. If it's lower I'd get one. Good screens go for about 150-200 euros around here.

Monitor works completely fine, but the new PC isn't booting from the harddrive nor is it booting into BIOS there is no signal to the monitor but the fan runs and the motherboard lights all turn on. Maybe I forgot to hook-up something? Ah... I am terrible with hardware.
    Mind making a new thread?
    Add the full specs including monitors.

    How do I tell the resolution for my current monitor :P.

    Okay so I guess it shouldnt be that bad, because the main things I am worried about is
    -Breaking a piece and then I am screwed
    -putting it all together and there are a bunch of issues.

    What parts should I get?

    Get the Superb build from the logical increments website. I'd recommend to drop the SSD and get a GTX760 and the 212+ cooler.

    I'd try to go with an Intel-based CPU if possible.

    How about this? I didn't add an SSD for a better GPU and PSU from the base build I took. Over part quality is better. (I have never, ever heard of Team Vulcan for RAM :| )

    I like the first one a lot but the thing I noticed is it doesn't have an optical drive or an OS license, and for me to buy one that would be about 100+ dollars, or am I missing something?
