I have tried 10 straight hours but I can't build my first PC. I've already smashed my case from rage. I put my motherboard in with cpu and cpu fan, ram and can put in a video card.

We know that is not always possible as it apparently has not been in your case.

So Google research, books, magazines, and especially videos are what's necessary in your case. Here are some very good ones...
