Hi team,
I recently bought all the components to build an awesome gaming computer and was encouraged by the people at the store to build it myself because "even a trained monkey can do it". I believe I am one step ahead of a trained monkey, and I think I have everything plugged in correctly even though there seem to be spare wires and plugs, although I've read that that's normal. In the off chance I did do something wrong, will I cause permanent damage by turning it on for the first time? Usually I would go for it, but it could potentially be a $1,000 mistake.
Long story short, I'm afraid of turning on my masterpiece because I don't want it to explode if I did something wrong. Is that even possible, or worst case scenario it just won't turn on?
Please god help me, I have games to play.
