If you are a new builder, it's worth it to pay for service to get it right in your first trial........

The videos by Newegg are good source for beginner too (Paul at Newegg is a great guy, and he have no bias on his opinions)-

1. Newegg TV: How To Build a Computer - Part 1 - Choosing Your Components

2. Newegg TV: How To Build a Computer - Part 2 - The Build

3. Newegg TV: How To Build a Computer - Part 3 - Installing Windows & Finishing Touches

>Alienware X51- do it all HTPC
>Simplify XBMC configurations
>HOW-TO Bitstreaming using XBMC
I refused to watch movie without bitstreaming HD audio!

He really breaks things down on all levels of seting up your htpc with a lot of screen shots, which is very helpful.
