need help building new pc

can anyone point me to some resource that might help me put together a new pc from scratch? a google search usually gives me too many results and not really enough reliability. and seriously, i don't want to screw this up thanks!

what do you want it to do? i.e. ultimate gaming machine, cheap but efficient, mid range, for your mom, etc etc. what's your budget?

oh, i'm sorry. i already have all the components, but i have limited installation experience. i'm sure enough of myself to be able to do it without destroying anything; i just need a sort of step-by-step thing. sorry
