== HTPC BUILD - PART 09: PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER + FIRST TURN ON ==
Putting everything together. This video shows 90% of the build process. Also shows the first turn on :).

Expect a final overview video within a week.

Also, if you're interested in this build, I'll sell it for $550 + shipping. Runs Windows 7 Professional x64 w/SP1, and I'll install Mac OS X Lion (hackintosh, runs perfectly) if requested. Comes with full and legitimate versions of Office 2010 Professional Plus, Cyberlink MediaEspresso, as well as Cyberlink PowerDVD (for Blu-ray playback).

Why does it sound like a thunderstorm is going on inside of your house? Lol...anyone else hear that sound?

[gumballtech]

@2ganjakid420 Was the air conditioner :\. Forgot about it.

[oOSoSoL1DOo]

does the harddrive still work after that fall?

[gumballtech]

@oOSoSoL1DOo Yup. All works fine.

[markgeoff222]

you said that you wasn't going to be uploading videos to this channel anymore...

[gumballtech]

@markgeoff222 I will be until me and the current owner of it figure out what to do. For the time being, I'll be uploading videos to it.

No heat paste on the cpu? Didn't use the motherboard stand offs?

[TheRSGTR]

wow



[tembelejderha]

very nice set of videos, thank you. it would have been better if you spent less time for introducing the components and more for the "put together" video.

also, very good choice of components imho. good bang for the buck and more than ok for the purpose.

[bobythemaster]

WTF man? the video is perfect but at the end that fall gave me the chill's... did it survive that awful fall? btw thanks for the video!

[proudstr8]

[romrumia]

[darthbandon10]

@andrezitofer No beeps? Tried different ram\seperate graphics card?

[RaptorZX3]

5:00 yeah, i think we all forgot, at least once, to put that damned I/O shield before putting the main board in the case, it's inevitable!

[joebob3719]

If you don't mind me asking, how much did the chip, mobo, and ram cost?

I'm think of building an updated HTPC to replace my current one, an AMD64 4000+ single core (and my cable subscription), and I was thinking of using a core i3.
