Open up your current computer, unplug it, and pull out a few items, and put em back in. You'll see everything clicks right in. If you for sure don't even want to attempt this I have no suggestions on pre-built machines. Only experience I have is with HP 10 years ago, and it was a horrible PC lol. Goodluck [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | |||

If you brought your grandpa/grandma all the parts to a computer and said here set it up do you think they would be able to? Forget age, go to your local college and I bet 80% of the students there would fail miserably at putting it together. There are people like us who could probably put a computer together in a pitch black room with 1 hand behind their back and have windows installing in 40 minutes, but I think you overestimate the general public's ability to see computer hardware and not go "what the fuck is that?" | |||

Ghordo I'd be also happy to help you build and/or pick one out if you want.
EDIT* I work from noon-10 MST tomorrow.. if you PM me I can give you my AIM name and go through either different prebuilt computers or talk about putting one together. | ||

But yes, I think w/ a small amount of direction, and all the parts picked out anyone who could change the oil in a car is competent enough to learn how to put a PC together. I really do. Plus with the support of the boards how could anything go wrong? I can pull up detailed instructions on how to apply thermal paste to all sorts of different types of CPUs if I wanted. I had not 1 clue about computers a few years ago...nothing past putting in a cd, and hitting install. I am an extreme cheap-ass so I looked up tons, and tons to put together my first PC. Everything went perfect. Was awesome! I really think for the majority of people would have no issues putting one together. | |||
