[Varzoh]

I feel like I've messed up when building my computer but I followed a video online step by step is there a for side way to know if I built my computer correctly by doing it yourself?

You can post here the specs or the hardware you want to use, so experts could tell you if it is good or not.

there a few ways to know if you did not build your pc right. the first test is the magic smoke test...when you let out the magic smoke and your pc is dead. if your pc shuts down...when your using it or blue screens. most times it the cpu cooler not on right and it over heating. there are porgramsd like memtest and others to stress test a pc. best use is to just use the pc. most pc if there built well and nothing is missed will run fine for years.

If it powers up....?
What do you mean by CORRECTLY? If it powers, runs stable (Memtest, Aida 64 etc), components all doing its job then all is good..

yes if it power on and posts and is stable your fine.
