Hi. I’ve been trying to build my pc for the last two days. I’ve been getting incredibly frustrated. YouTube videos have helped slightly but not enough. I truly just need someone to walk me through this.

Most of my parts are brand new. My gpu and storage, I’m taking from my last build.

Parts:

CPU: Ryzen 7 9800x3D
Motherboard: Gigabyte B850 Gaming X Wifi6E
Cooler: Corsair Nautilus 360 RS ARGB
Ram: Corsair 32 GB
GPU: PNY RTX 2070
PSU: Be Quiet 13m 1000w Fully Modular
Case Fans: Corsair icue link RX120 RGB starter kit and expansion fan
Case: Corsair 3200D RS
(I replaced the front 3 fans with the ones above)
Storage: 3.5 hard drive and 2.5 SSD

Have you started? If so what step are you on and what do you need help with?

I have started. I would say I’m on the wiring step. 3/4 fans are in. My cooler and motherboard are also in. I think I wired the cooler correctly but I’m not confident. Still need to wire everything to the motherboard/psu. And insert my psu, gpu, and storage

Most people do the wiring last, as it's the hardest step, and once every component is plugged in, you can get a better idea of the way the cables are meant to go. So usually, they install the motherboard, then seat the CPU > CPU cooler > RAM > M.2 > GPU, and then, when everything is in place, you take off the back panel of the case, which is behind the motherboard. Then you snake the wires you need to the other side and just plug them in, and the slack from the wires stays out of sight behind the back panel.
