No, I do not. I'm not one of those people who knew what to do before even thinking about building a computer.

You are probably wondering where the HDD/Power LED header is and +/-

There should be a diagram somewhere in the booklet. Pretty simple and straight forward. Almost every MOBO has the exact same layout so once you put one together you can put them all together.

What components did you purchase for the build?

The diagram does help with most but a couple were not as obvious to someone as new to this as I am. I am using an Asrock z77 Pro 3 board. Do the HD Audio and AC97 connectors serve the same purpose? They only have one spot that they can go and it is labeled HD Audio. They are almost directly attached so I am assuming that I only need one.

Yes, I've been using this to get me by. Unfortunately the only videos I have found with my specific board have just been unboxing videos. A couple videos I have found where they actually do a build skip past the parts that I need.
