It's a lot easier than you think. I've done twice and it was a lot easier than I thought it would be. There's two methods - starting from scratch, or buying a barebones system and going from there. I did both with a barebones system, but if you're going from scratch, I'd look at ASUS, CLEVO or SAGR for the parts. Sites like rjtech.com have pretty much all you would need.

Yeah, it's not easy, but if you want to do it, it's totally possible.
