All right. I will start by saying that I am not English or any English-related languages.

So, one of my friend told me to build the gaming PC, that I wanted, myself. I've completed it 3 hours ago, but when I want to turn on my PC, it shuts down by itself after 30 seconds. Can it be because I don't have my monitor yet? I have a 450 watt Power Supply for a i5 AMD. Is that the problem? Please help me, I'm pretty lost right now :(

I5 AMD? I think we might be confusing brand names here, Core I5 is intel. Anyway, I think a monitor would be a good start. I don't think you will have an issue with a 450 power supply depending on the rest of your build.

Verify that you have all of your ATX power connectors firmly in place on the MB. Other than that, it could be a thermal limit. I would assume that you have installed the CPU cooler?

Case -> Rosewill FBM-01
Power Supply -> Antec 450watt
Motherboard -> M5A 78L-M LX Plus
CPU -> I can't say more than i5 AMD, sorry
Video Card -> Gigabyte GV-N65TOC-1gi GeForce gtx 650

I don't think you need anything else ^^ if so, tell me please.
Keep in mind that i'm new to all this, I used to buy already made ^^

I did. The thermal thing was already paste. It took my a while to figure out what position to put it in but I ended putting it in the right place and position for sure. I will have my monitor soon, so i'll figure it out soon if that is the problem.

450W should be fine to run that rig. I stick to my above statement, make sure everything is securly connected and that you have correctly mounted the CPU cooler. You could try removing the GTX650 to eliminate a potential problem. Fact remains, a monitor would help to see what the machine is doing while booting. If it gets to BIOS etc.

Right now i'm on my laptop, I know what's inside of it. I want to switch to a desktop gaming pc because it's less expensive than a laptop one.
