due to the nature of building a custom computer you may find compatibility issues with the following parts list today mu with the latest in my computer build series today focusing on a computer that is focused on serious 1080p gaming performance at the nine hundred dollar price point to begin with we will be using the Intel Core i5 2500 kcp you don't let the i5 branding fool you this is a serious performer for gaming is a quad-core processor clocked at three point three gigahertz however just like 2,600 k you can easily overclock it to 4 gigahertz and above for 220 dollars will be a great core for your build for a motherboard we will be using a gigabyte GA z68 XP ud3 is a z68 board to feature support for Intel's quick response SSD caching se23 and USB 3 ports as well as virtue for switching between the CPU graphics in your dedicated card at 140 dollars this will work great for our build moving on to the graphics card we have the sapphire radeon 6870 this should be able to play nearly any game available today maxed at 1080p without a problem and also features a pair of DVI ports along with display port an HDMI couple with a free copy of deus ex it will work great for 155 dollars after rebate for memory will be using eight good bites of g.skill ripjaws ram quad at 1600 megahertz the heat sinks aren't overly large and $45 it's a great deal for plenty of RAM to run your build storage is taken care of with a one terabyte samsung spinpoint f3 hard drive and an ocz vertex 60gb bite salt state drive you have two options you can either use the quick response SSD caching feature to automatically speed up your most used files on the one terabyte drive or simply install windows and your favorite apps on the SSD either way all your storage will be taken care of for 120 dollars while a DVD burner is hardly necessary these days it will still help install windows in any disk based media you have so we'll be using a samsung cd/dvd burner for twenty dollars for the case there is the cooler master half 9-12 well certainly not an expensive case it offers a lot of solid features including plenty of room for installing additional fans easy access to the filters for cleaning room for lots of hard drives graphics cards as well as a cage for installing a pair of 2.5 inch hard drives on the bottom of the case my main bill is than a half 9-12 and i highly recommend it for sixty dollars the power supply for the build is a thermaltake tr2 600 watt supply snap modular it will deliver enough power for your built including overclocking the cpu with head room to spare for $55 last but not least we have a new copy of windows 7 home premium 64-bit if you want you can install another version of Windows or Linux but otherwise this will run $100 so overall how do we do as of September 8 2011 on newegg com the entire bill will run 889 dot 90 cents for this price you'll be getting a rock-solid gaming rig for under nine hundred dollars it should be capable of playing all the big games that are coming out this year do keep in mind that prices are always fluctuating so feel free to customize the bill to your own liking if you found this helpful definitely be sure to leave a like rating and if you want to be notified when I post a new video be sure to subscribe
