Firstly, after all of the doubt, fear, anxiety has passed and one is enlightened to the idea of building a computer based on all of the obvious merits: Cheaper / full customization ability / more power per $ / superior purchasing power. So the bridge has been crossed and now it's time for the list.
CPU / Hard Drive / Mother Board / Graphics Card / Power Supply / RAM / DVD burner / Monitor / Case / Fan, will be the items of focus for this build. The CPU, being one of the most important pieces to the puzzle should fit nice and snug into the motherboard socket. Be sure enough thermal compound is used between CPU and CPU heatsink / fan. A good connection for heat transfer here is critical to increasing the lifespan of the computer. Once the CPU is in, next tighten down the mother board using the appropriate holes / screws that must fit the case. Typically a full ATX is the preferred computer case offering the most scalability. On to the power supply. Usually the power supply should be rated at over 750 Watts and have at least 12 Amps on a single rail. The power supply should be the first thing a user touches before operating on the computer. Static will surely ruin a motherboard permanently. Next align the RAM to fit into the motherboard. Usually this requires a fair amount of force to secure RAM in place so don't be shy with RAM. Next secure the hard drive in place and make sure there is a SATA connection between the motherboard and the hard drive. Next install graphics card closest to the CPU socket. This is definitely the simplified version of putting a computer together.
