First built computer

[socratesz]

I just finished building my computer, but am afraid to turn it on. I've connected the power supply to the motherboard, hooked up the drives, graphics card. Am i forgetting anything, please feel free to teach me, I'm a total noob.

Thank you,
Soc

have you connected your front panel connections from your case to the motherboard? and both 24pin and 8pin PSU connections to the motherboard? fear not Soc, you'll be right

You have to try it sometime; worst case it doesnt post and you double check your connections and try again.
