Hi

I am going to purchase all the components separately and get the best prices (not compromising the model numbers which I have researched on).

Now my question is once I have all the components should I assemble the PC on my own (I havent assembled a PC before)? Is it really difficult?

I tried to search Digit forum to find out any threads which have guides regarding this...but am not able to find anything...is there any such thread?

All in all I want to have the confidence that I can actually assemble the PC on my own...and also have the knowledge that I dont mess up anything...any common pitfalls will be really helpful

As I type I am already googling this so I can find the general guides but if there is a Bible kinda guide for assembling which people generally use...it would be really helpful if you can share it with me.

Regards
