This is part 3 of our Build a PC 2011. We build a mid-range PC for $1500. This video covers installing all of the parts into the case. We got excellent performance from fairly inexpensive parts by choosing the socket 1155 over the socket 1366. We do plan to upgrade the hard drive to a SSD in the near future to speed up our system boot times and game loads, but we feel that we hit the mark with the budget for the build.
The parts used for our build.
• ASUS Sabertooth P67 Motherboard $220
• Intel Core i7-2600K 3.4 GHz LGA 1155 Processor $329
• Cooler Master Hyper 212+ CPU Cooler $35
• Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600 memory (8GB) $105
• EVGA GTX 570 video card $359.99
• Western Digital Caviar Black 500GB Hard drive $60

We are finally building another gaming PC. Due to the Intel chipset recall, our build has been delayed for two months. The new boards are here and we are back on schedule. This is a quick look at the board and processor we are using this time around. Full build video is coming soon. These are the components that we have so far:
The Build:
- ASUS P67 Motherboard $220
- Intel Core i7-2600K 3.4 GHz LGA 1155 Processor $329
- Cooler Master Hyper 212+ CPU Cooler $35
- Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600 memory (8GB) $105
- Western Digital Caviar Black 500GB Hard drive $60
- Samsung SH-S223 DVD Burner $20
- Windows 7 64bit OEM $140
We are trying to get in a special (yet to be released) case for this build. Hopefully the manufacturer gets it here soon so we can finish this video for you. The power supply is still undecided. Trying to get something cool to use for that as well.
