Building Your own Intel Core i7-980X Extreme Edition PC

Here For First Time WE are going to build your own Intel Core i7 980X Extreme PC For the Home User. This is a very easy process to assemble your own Custom PC.
Following are the Component or Parts that we required While Building or Assembling PC or Computer.

1. Case: NZXT Tempest EVo - $100 Street
2. Motherboard: Asus P6T - $210 Street
3. Chip: Intel Core i7-980X - $999 List
4. HD (Spinning): Seagate Barracuda XT (2TB) - $300 Street
5. HD (SSD): Crucial Real SSD C300 (256 GB) - $759 Street
6. Blu Ray Drive: Lite-on 4x - $109 Street
7. Graphics Card: ATI Radeon 5970 - $699 Street
8. RAM: 3 CSX Diablo DDR 3 (2GB) - $150 list
9. Power Supply: Ultra X4 1050W ATX Power Supply - $280 list
10. OS: Windows 7 Ultimate - $220 direct



Step 1) Open up the side of the case. Set the case on its side on a flat surface.
Step 2) Insert the motherboard risers into the case.
Step 3) It's time to install the CPU. First, release the socket lever by moving it slightly sideways, then raise it to a 90-degree angle. Line up the chip, but don't force the chip into place. When you have the CPU lined up, bring the lever down and lock it back into place to make sure that the CPU is held securely.
Step 4) Place a dollop of thermal paste on top of the chip. The compound conducts heat well and increases cooling efficiency by filling in the small spaces between the CPU and the surface of the heat sink.
Step 5) Install the cooler on top of the CPU and clip it onto the motherboard. Yes I know it's huge, but it is actually better than pervious intel coolers.
Step 6) Insert the RAM. The memory slots you use (you'll see several) will depend on your memory configuration, so consult the manual before you install the sticks. The RAM modules are designed so that you can't put them in backward—if one isn't going in, don't force it.
Step 7) Install the power supply.
 Step 8) Set the motherboard on the risers and screw it into place.
Step 9) Open the front panel of the case and then take out the temporary face plates.
Step 10) Install your graphics card and hard drives. Be very careful with a card this size, it can easily catch on assorted cords in the case.
Step 11) Slide your optical drive into the front of the case.
Step 12) Now that all the hardware is installed, it's time to start wiring. Find the 20-pin power socket on the motherboard, and plug in the matching power-supply connector. Do the same with the power plug that mates with the four-pin socket near the CPU. Finally, connect all of the leads from the external USB ports, indicator lights, the status display, and audio jacks to their appropriate motherboard partners. Next, do the same with the leads from the internal drives.
Step 13) Your work assembling the hardware is done. Now you're ready to load Windows 7 and get to work.
