So this is my first build. There were some bumps in the road once I got started (I basically tore the whole thing apart because I had my HDMI cord plugged into the MOBO and not the GPU). Without that it would have taken about 4 hours, instead it was closer to 7. Looking at other people's builds my cable management is definitely terrible but I don't know how to change that now shy of restarting again.
You guys helped me pick out (and change) a lot of the components and this truly wouldn't have been possible without you.
