    Building a computer is actually very easy.

    Pick the processor you want. Get the OEM version If buying a cooler.
    Pick a cooler. You can do this from the reviews Of your processor or just look at the most popular coolers and make sure it lists your cpu socket as one it accepts. You dont need water if you arent going to OC.
    Choose a motherboard that will accept that processors socket size - you can do this from the reviews of the cpu you chose.
    Choose ram that the mobo will accept. Just look at the specs of the mobo, often the reviews of the mobo will akso say what ram they bought.
    Choose a video card.
    Add an ssd, a hard drive, and a dvdrw drive.
    Choose a power supply. Corsair keeps winning awards for theirs.
    Pick a case if you dont already have one. I like Thermaltake cases because they have a lot of room and are well thought out.

    Then you just wait until the stuff arrives. Put the cpu in the mobo. Apply paste. Attach the fan/cooler. Screw in the mobo. Install the power supply. Add the ram. Add the video card. Install and connect all the drives. Hook up all the power cables. Attach the peripherals and boot up the system to make sure you dont get any POST errors from bad parts or operator error. If that works, stick in the windows cd, press reset and off you go.
