Building a full computer really isn't that difficult. The only challenging part is making sure that all of your components are compatible with each other. Then it's just mounting them to your chassis (or motherboard, e.g. CPU, RAM, graphics card, etc.) and providing them with power via the power supply (PSU) if needed.
Components used in this build:

Multi-Channel Memory Technology:
Multi-channel architecture is a technology that increases the transfer speed of data between the RAM and the memory controller by adding more channels of communication between them. Theoretically this multiplies the data rate by exactly the number of channels present. Dual-channel memory employs two channels which theoretically doubles the data transfer rate. Higher-end chipsets like the Intel i7-9x series and various Xeon chipsets support triple-channel memory. Intel has released (2011) chipsets that support quad-channel memory.

@anto1122 Very simple; you can just apply it in a straight line going down the center of the CPU once it's been installed into the motherboard. Don't use too much, though. Thanks for the subscription and a happy new year to you as well :-)

Very Nice, but its actually recommended that if your doing a complete build that you install your ram and processor before you install them into the chassis

@1995billy You're right. I just thought that it might be easier to do it the way that I did for filming purposes.

Great vid, extremely helpful. I've seen on motherboards it says for example: 1333mhz, 1600mhz, 1866 (OC), ect
If i get ram with 1866 how would i over clock to make it run with it?

@sidewaysfilmz You can get RAM clocked at 1866MHz and your board will take it just fine. That's basically saying that if you get 1600MHz RAM you can overclock it to 1866MHz (if, of course, your CPU supports it and your DIMMS can handle it). But if you get RAM clocked at 1800MHz the motherboard may drop the speed to 1600MHz if you don't overclock it to 1866MHz. Main thing - just get RAM with the speeds your motherboard can support (whether it says "OC" or not).
