    Any guides to build an own computer?

    Does anybody know if there are any websites or guides that explain how to actually build your own computer? I do not mean buying cpu, gpu, etc to put together a pc but really make your own computer? Couldn't find anything useful on the web so far but I hope perhaps you do.
