Planning on building a PC, anything I should know? (beehaw.org)

I'm planning on building a PC soon and, while I have done plenty of research, I'd like to hear advice from people who have experience in the area personally. It's also just nice talking to other people in general, lol

Also don't forget to remove the plastic film(s) they put on the CPU/Cooler and everywhere else!

Most coolers come with it preapplied these days, but it's still good to have in case you need to reseat your cooler.
