If you've ever wanted to assemble your own computer, but felt intimidated, this video is for you. In all reality, it's quite easy. This is the computer I built back in December of 2010. It's based on the AMD Phenom II x6 1090T. The video quality is not the greatest, but I hope it will help.

Please note that it is important to be wary of static electricity. Static electricity can damage sensitive electronic components. I am wearing an anti-static wrist strap connected to the case in parts of this video and I am also standing on a ceramic tile floor, which is of course, a non conductive surface. If you don't have an anti-static wrist strap, just keep touching the case.

Refer to this article on TechCW.com if you would like information on what components to purchase typically and how to match them.
