Do y'all think it would be hard for a person who has never built a pc to build one? I'm no computer expert, but I'm not a complete dumbass either. I guess I'm average to slightly above average in computer knowledge for a 28 year old.

Use pcpartpicker.com to put together your build. It will tell you if parts are compatible. Or a very knowledgeable friend.
You might get frustrated during the first build, but when it finally POSTs up for the first time...
Then your next thought is "Why did I pay $100 for Windows, I'm going to learn Linux, spend that money on a better CPU, or GPU...
