To be honest, building computers is like lego. It's not really hard at all. It just seems challenging because it's a rising trend.
Is it in you?

yeah the building itself is really easy. Since they got rid of all the annoying stuff like IDE cables. If you splurge a bit more on the case (~$70) for CM 690 will make your cable management so much easier.

I easily spent 20-30x the time finding the parts I wanted and going through indecision ;_;

I'm probably gonna feel dumb after this gets answered, but this question has been bugging me ever since I first looked at this pic: where the hell is the CPU power connector? I see that the whole thing is super tidy, but I can find pretty much everything else.

Nice build, FragKrag. Really nice to have the pictures, too, and I'm sure they'll help some people. I'd come to the same conclusion as you on waiting until Intel releases their new SSDs (I'm iffy on them coming through with their claims, but at the very least it should drop down prices on current gen products) but I'm still going back and forth on 1TB Caviar Black or 1 TB Spinpoint F3. Meh, it being a legitimate question is good for everybody in the long run, I guess.

I went for the 1TB F3s because they are quieter, run cooler, use less power, cheaper (when I bought them, they were $70) and have better sequential reads/writes than the Caviar Blacks. What the Caviar Blacks have over the F3s is the better access time. Since I intend to use the 1TB F3s as storage drives later it really wasn't much of a decision

Cable management for most people is just try to shove as many cables as you can to the back panel behind the main board plate lol.
