ICT- school year wants

In this year of ICT i would like to learn how to build my own computer so whenever i should play games it would run faster than other computers that are currently on the market. I am interested in hardware components, because without the hardware there is no software. To me a piece of technology i could not live without is a computer with interent, A computer with internet is a Tv, a board game, a phone, an mp3(if u know wat ur doing). Somthing i would love to learn in this course is how to build my own computer, how to make it better from the rest.  I also would like to learn how to use macro media flash better because i already know the basics but im not good at usuing it to its maximum potential.
