I bought these about a month ago, and I paid 138 + shipping for the P4 @ newegg, and 115 for the mobo + shipping @ MWave... So 250 for the combo sounds like a pretty good deal. I would have bought both from newegg, but they were sold out of the mobo, and mwave's price on the P4 was about 15 dollars more on the P4, so I went with two separate vendors. I got the newegg part one day prior to the mwave part, and newegg is generally cheaper on shipping... But if you can get a combo bundle, that's the best way to go.
