First build question

[bob windom]

Is there any recommended sequence in adding components to the case? In other words should I add the motherboard first then the hard drives, etc.

If you follow the guide at www.mysuperpc.com, then it will tell you all you need to know. :)

If, however, you are feeling lazy, then you should add the CPU and the RAM to the motherboard, then put this in the case, then add the PSU, then HDs, then GFX card, then optical drives. This is a very general order, as it depends on what case you have.
