It's not hard at all.
On www.tigerdirect.com , when you search for motherboards and processors they have instrucional videos that show you how to install it.
I will hunt some tutorials down for you and post back later

Did you check the "sticky" at the top of this forum for Computer Guides ? There are many great links in there to help you build your own PC.

It's pretty easy. My first build took me and 1 and a half hour to complete the whole system (Windows install, format, build, drivers)
