[dapcgenius]

I'm tryin to build a fairly descent pc... any good sites to track prices of mobo and cpu combos...i know about pricewatch...

I'm such an idiot... on pccost.com one day they had a 1.6ghz p4(oem) comboed with this Asus mobo for $230!!! Me being my stupid self didn't buy it right away.... the nxt day that price is doubled to $380 or what not... know any site that has good deals like this one??? a combo 200-300 dollars

I'm also looking to buy a nice looking case for less say within $70 that supports p4 or thunderbird... any good sites.... reply ASAP... thanx in advance...

Following sites that suit your needs:
http://www.tcwo.com
http://www.newegg.com

CompExp (http://www.compexp.net)
If you live in the Atlanta area. They can build one right in front of you and it'll only cost maybe 400$ U.S.D. and the staff is really nice.
They have Windows and Linux Redhat 7.
They will make your system a dual-boot if you get both.
But you have to be in the Atlanta, GA area because you have to go to the store to buy a computer.

I would have to say newegg.com becuase of its low prices. But I suggest going to Pricewatch.com or iBuyer.net to check out the lowest prices on certain computer components.
