Very nice. It looks like your wearing anti-static strap. I think it's important to mention this or inform new builders to periodically touch the case to ground themselves and not to work on a carpeted surface. Very well done!

Wouldn't it have been easier to mount the PSU prior to the MB? You had to reach around the MB and cooling fan when you mounted the PSU. And if you had mounted the PSU first, you could have flipped the case 180 degrees and mounted the PSU without having to hold it in place.
Oh, and while you used your wrist strap, you never mentioned the strap or the purpose of the strap.
Like I said before. Job Well Done.

Great job on the video it may help out thousands of people.
One thing I do is install my power supply first.
Also I like to install the ram and cpu on the motherboard before installing the motherboard to the case. Just imo.
Great job.
Thanks Guy and Thanks to Tom's Hardware

Great Vid willetfx! This will help me quite a quite a bit as I haven't done much for building in over five years. I need a magnifying head band like you've got in the video. Thanks.
