Wow. After doing some research it seems prices have come down quite a bit. I haven't looked at it for about a year, and it was not cheap then.

Looks like I might have to re-evaluate my home network.

i decided to change the mobo im getting, im going to the ASUS P4P800 Delux, it has more optins than the MSI board i was going with (namely IDE RAID) and its about $60 cheaper, which means, i can get the P4 2.8 GHz woo hoo!

*edit* i also went and looked at www.pricegrabber.com and found that they have processors (retail) cheaper than www.pricewatch.com does, they are both great places, pricewatch still has cheaper MOBOs tho

www.colorcases.com I don't know how good they're customer service is, but they have nice looking cases for cheap.

Try to get a Thermaltake Xaser II for cheap. They're on to a different model now so you could probably pick them up discounted. They come with all the fans and have more then enough space.
