Easy way to configure parts list. NCIXTechTips, LinusTechTips, JayzTwoCents, HardwareCanucks, Tek Syndicate, and Awesomesauce are a couple of YouTube channels that can be helpful.

The best was I've found is to dive into the deep end.

First thing i done was watch a few tutorials, then go it yourself.

Build the pc as they do it on the video.

If I could give you any advice I would tell you to do some research. Youtube is your friend. Learn what your computer is made up of and what parts do what. If you have an old PC, rip it apart and play with it. Get a feel for the hardware.

I would advise you to get a good case from the start you dont need to get a 200$ case but dont get the very cheapest. I did that my first build and cable management was horrendous because the case just didnt have much support. If you can afford the define S i would highly recommend it, building inside is a breeze

Usually PC builds on the internet aren't the best, especially with new hardware constantly coming out and then different users needs etc.. it's far easier to configure a build to a specific users needs.

Watching YouTube videos showing how the build process is done, compiling parts online, asking users on here for the opinions on builds, and doing some research of your own are all important tasks to complete before you order parts and actually put the computer together.

Putting the computer together really isn't that hard once you have done the proper research and what not.
