From unpacking to actually playing your first game will be several hours assuming no major issues crop up. And a lot of that time is spent installing your OS, drivers, and the game itself (not to mention unpacking and since it's your first time, carefully reading instructions). If you also want to include parts selection and research, it's more like a couple of days. If you're just talking about literally fitting the hardware together, around one hour is normal.i second this, it isnt hard, if you buy all new parts, it will come with detailed instructions, its difficulty ranges between legos and a model airplane.
it is easy to honestly put one together, installing your OS will prolly take the longest, then going in and disabling whatever services you dont want,
and the installation of your drivers, (get most recent)
but i think a few hours is better than hundred(S) of dollars more for a prebuilt honestly.
and think about it this way, you can work on it better or add new things to it easier, cause you were the one that put it together, and it furthers your knowledge in that field...
and you will feel better once your gaming thinking to yourself "man, i put that together and saved money and gaming my A$$ off"
more of a sense of accomplishment.
