http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/build-your-own-pc,2601.html is a fairly comprehensive how-to.
But it is OLD. Today's CPU have done away with pins. There are other bits of info that reek of age. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPIXAtNGGCw is a more modern video tutorial. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bUghCx9iso is yet another.

One of the biggest hurdles with be your motherboard leads. You might be surprised by how many connections the front(or top) panel needs especially if it has USB connections. Fortunately motherboard manufacturers know this. They will have a step-by-step guide on how to install them. Youtube is full of General to part specific tutorials in addition to full pc build like the ones from Newegg. Let's say I wanted to install a graphic's card but I didn't know how. I purchased the 970 from EVGA. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Eg2YYxzyLc shows how to install a 970. It is a simple insert card into slot procedure but for the uninitiated it can be hard without instruction. Just take it slow and keep doing what you're doing. RESEARCH.
BTW it's a bad idea to install this on carpet or anywhere that static charge buildup is possible. Ever touch a door handle and you get a tiny shock? That tiny discharge can render RAM unusable.
