Some of the resources I found useful

Build videos (+ I suggest you watch related shorter build videos that use the same case as you do):
   • How to Build a PC - Step By Step - $2100 L...  
   • Lian Li O11 Dynamic EVO - Step by Step PC ...  

Types of links I was using during the assembly (to give you some feeling):
Wasn't sure whether I'm installing the GPU properly:   / gpu_wont_click_into_motherboard_slot  

While I was connecting A-RGB liquid cooling:   / whats_the_difference_between_a_aura_addres...  

Wasn't sure how to connect SATA connectors (RGB fans): https://linustechtips.com/topic/79086...

My BIOS: https://rog.asus.com/motherboards/rog...

Amazing installation instructions for Liquid Freezer II: https://support.arctic.de/en/lf2-240r4

Finally, simply search for "Install X" on YouTube if you're struggling (or Google for resources).
