heh, yeah, RTFM on the mobo manual. My case had wires going everywhere, so i was a bit lost when hooking them up to the mobo and i think i still screwed up the "turbo led" hehe

otherwise, my first P4 system went off w/out a hitch, powered up first time, everything ran smoothly and it's all great so far.

but seriously, it's not as hard as you'd think. Just be sure to get retail versions if you're really uncertain and OEM versoins if you're pretty sure you don't need the extra warranty/software. i bought retail proc, mobo, dvd/cdrw, and hard drive, oem for graphics, case and ram. id' suggest retail definitely for the proc if you're going with intel bc it comes with the fan/heat sink taht you'll definitely need unless you're going with upgraded cooling
