The basic components for building a computer
- CPU
- Memory
- Motherboard
- Power Supply
- Hard Drive / SSD (Solid State Drive)
- Computer Case / Tower
- DVD Drive
These are all the components for building a new computer. For custom built gaming computer, we start with picking all the high-end parts and customize the system. This is the highend gaming computer. Although we are using the on-board video for now, we will add gaming video card later on. This is using Intel i7-4770K 4th generation Haswell CPU, MSI Motherboard, Corsair TX775 Power Supply and Samsung 840 EVO 250GB SSD. This computer runs like monster.
