Hi.

How long time does it approximately take to assample your own system when you've got all the parts and is a newb?

How long is a piece of string?

Complete build for a noob going through manuals etc... about 2-3 hours maybe (random guess)

I can build one as fast as 10-15 minutes. I'd say around 30-45 for the beginner. You can't really mess up or accidentally flip connectors, as you can try and it just won't fit in no matter what.

Depends on the case. It took me about an hour to put together my build in the P180 as it's a slightly more difficult case to work with, especially with all the rubber padding and stuff.

If you want to perfect the build, especially in wiring, it could take you upwards of 2 hours.
