Got the parts for my Computer yesterday :) and as stated in the title i'm new at this, I have been told that it is easy to build a PC so i did some research as to what is required to get the job done. Component list as follows

Antec 300 with basiq 55w psu, Gigabyte GA-MA790XT-UD4P motherboard,

AMD Phenom II X3 tri core 720 Black edition cpu, ATI 4830 Graphics Card,

Corsair XMS3 4gb DDR3 ram, Samsung spinpoint 320gb sata hdd.

I also used an 160 gb Western dgital hard drive and DVD re writer both of these are ide, it took a bit of time to put it all together but i got it finished.
Where i need help is on the Psu i have a load of wires left over on the unit and sockets, is this because i dont have sound cards and other bits to connect up. Also will i be OK to power it up as havent done so yet will post pics if need thanks in advance.

that was quick thanks. I've used the stand-offs and thermal Paste for cpu but was wondering if i power it up is there any chance of wrecking the pc ?
