Now you should create a pc making tut :D
It's too straight forward for a tutorial to be needed..
Like the cat said, "It's like lego's"

Putting it together is like legos, making it work well is from experience. Some generic stuff can be made into a tutorial but overall it's not stuff you can learn from reading a single source. You need to get involved in actually building the PCs and configuring them.

I'd never made one before, so I wouldn't understand the concepts.
This will help me in November.

I opened up an old PC.
That's as far as I needed to figure out to put one together.

What do you plan on doing with that much power? o .o
Knowing Chise, I'd say that he's going to run 5 clients of Crysis 2, 600 vector images simultaneously, two super computers dueling each other 16 games of chess at once, while a third calculates the logarithm of the square root of Pi times one seventh, raised to the -134th power, and streaming 8923 porn movies in 1440p 3DHD display, all while downloading the entirety of the internet to gain control over Timbuktu. Just because he can.

Nice system! I'd go for an Antec P182 case though. I wonder if they can still fit all the new monster components. The only critique aside from what I had mentioned before would be that 2TB drives are significantly less reliable than 1TB drives. The RAID certainly helps mitigate risk, but this is a warning to others (especially to those who don't really know what RAID is). :P
Now you just wait for LGA 2011 chips to come out! I'm gonna build a monster, too. And it'll eat yours alive! >:D
Probably not in the graphics dept, though.. I don't wanna spend all that money on a GPU. ):
And yeah, the first thing I did when I built my Core 2 Duo based system with 2GB of RAM (which was a beast at the time) was run a bunch of virtual machines on it and a MapleStory client in each one, all running smoothly. I then proceeded to annoy the Maplers who were complaining about lag with just 1 client running. :333

I wouldn't be surprised if he has a secret super computer that he's hiding from the government. [s]Or if he makes one and manages to hide it from the government[/s].
