How to Build a Gaming Computer

In this video, Carey Holzman teaches you step-by-step how to build your own gaming computer. This video is shot in 720p for clarity and, if your internet connection can handle it, it is recommended you select that option in full screen viewing mode using the buttons on the lower right of the picture. Never work on any electric device while it is plugged into the wall, even if it is turned off!

•Electric shock can only occur when contact is made between two points of a circuit; when voltage is applied across a victim's body.

•Power circuits usually have a designated point that is "grounded:" firmly connected to metal rods or plates buried in the dirt to ensure that one side of the circuit is always at ground potential (zero voltage between that point and earth ground).

•A ground fault is an accidental connection between a circuit conductor and the earth (ground).

•Special, insulated shoes and mats are made to protect persons from shock via ground conduction, but even these pieces of gear must be in clean, dry condition to be effective. Normal footwear is not good enough to provide protection from shock by insulating its wearer from the earth.

That depends what resolution your TV supports, if you have a DVI output on your video card (this PC does) and if you have the right cable, which is sold seperately.

would this comuter work with my 32 in smasung t.v.?

[CareyHolzman]

@hoopzers3 I guess that depends on which of the 5,000 Samsung TV models you have... Check your TV owners manual.

How do calculate the total power supply? I also get my stuff from newegg, and they explain in the details for the item what the wattage is. Are you supposed to just add all the numbers up? Please help!

[CareyHolzman]

@CreeperProductions98 Please visit the help forums at eggXpert for that info.

WOW THATS AWESOME! but will it blend?

[Chyaku]

@CreeperProductions98 Under the power supply section in Newegg, they have a calculator to determine an estimated amount of power you need for your computer build.

@entertainmentmachNO1 when you first boot up put your windows 7 cd in the cd drvie and head into the bios and change your boot piorty to the cd drive and then windows 7 will start to install after installing restart and head into the bios and chnage the boot piorty to your HDD because that's where you installed windows, then you need your motherboard drivers if you have a computer with internet already say a laptop head to your motherboard manufacturers website and head to support if you need he
