[QUOTE="Kokopelli, post: 88051"] I would suggest getting a Dell or eMachine. It used to be you could build a system for a fraction of the cost of a COTS PC. Now though building from scratch is not really that much cheaper, especially when you figure in the cost of Windows. If you are determined to build from scratch though I would use newegg.com, they have decent prices and great service. Directron.com is good as well. Right now I would go with an AMD64 based system, just my personal preference on "bang for the buck." For Case you might consider the Shuttle SN95G5. I am picking one up to replace one of my older systems. It has the benefit of being a barebones system so you won't need to put in and connect the motherboard. [/QUOTE]
