So many ways you can screw it up, and expect at least one component to be defective, even if you paid enough that it shouldn't be. Last time one of my RAM sticks was bad. The hardest part, though, is running all the goddamn cables and making sure they're connected in the right spots. It's not exactly intuitive.
Unless you are completely confident in your ability, I strongly suggest that you find somebody knowledgeable and experienced to help you. And get a big case. That makes it much easier, but even then it's a major pain.
Good luck.

I have to disagree. Youtube a couple of build guides and you can be pretty confident. If you can put together legos, you can put together a PC. No moving parts, just snap in pieces and a couple of wires.
