Richard,
AnandTech.com has excellent reviews of all the DIY components,
including processors, boards, power supplies, even cases. Good place
to start.
Don't forget to leave room for a good SSD!

I was looking for a beefy quad core system and my brother convinced

the time to assemble the parts.
So I'm curious: How many of you here have built your own
computers? Did you go with a barebones, or do it from scratch? Did
you go with Intel or AMD, and why?
I'm leaning toward AMD myself given what appears to be an excellent
price/performance value, and will likely build from scratch because
I'm picky about the case.
Seems a surprising number of people I know build their own systems,
kinda makes me wonder why I ever bought an off-the-shelf PC.
