damn $7.50 shipping cost 😛

but its cheaper than the one that is sold out...so thanks alot 🙂
 
does anybody recommened getting a more expensive better MB?

I was thinking of getting one that is SLi ready incase I purchased another video card...or just to have a better card that is also made to function with Quad core...

Any thoughts? Thanks 🙂
 
ohhh sweet i missed the zipzoomfly rebate on the on the case but this one just started today and works out well...thanks alot

I was going to get the tuniq tower or the Thermalight ultra but I heard they were big and hard to install and I might be better off with a smaller fan that still works...

so ill save about 15 bucks and get a 90 day warrenty on the CPU? i might do that

Do you have any advice on a motherboard or should I stick with the DS3L?

Thanks 🙂

 
I use an Abit IP-35 and IP-35 Pro.

The 35 is $130 at Newegg and the Pro is $150 AR at ClubIT.

Both boards are very easy to work with. I can't comment on the Gig board.
 
hmm i was looking at the abit for a lil bit and then someone recommended the gigabyte...not sure which is better or anything...im buying everything tomorrow so if i cant decide ill prob just stick with gigabyte MBB
