Self-build PC spec - but where to buy?

[dowser]

Hi All - newbie post 🙂

I'm looking to buy the following kit for my new gaming orientated PC (Newegg prices in brackets);

Gigabyte GA-7DX ($139)
AMD T'bird 1.4Ghz ($259);retail version with fan/sink
IBM Deskstar 60Gb ($173)
Enlight 300W Case ($50)
Soundblaster Live Value ($40)
L.tech Cordless Mouse/KB(~$90)
Chassis Fan (~$14)

I also want (but Newegg don't stock);
512Mb Crucial/Mushkin PC2100 DDR
Pioneer DVD-106S
GeForce3 based 3D card (which one?!)

Are there any one-stop online stores where I can get all of it in one go (and reduce shipping costs back to Switzerland!)? Anandtech also recommend the Fong Kai FK-320ATX tower case - is there justification for the additional cost? Where can I get one?

Many Thanks
Richard

Get the Crucial PC2100 ram at their site with the 15% rebate Crucial. You can also try MWave they have some good prices...

Newegg sells the Aopen 16X DVD Slot Drive, which is basically a Pioneer 106-S with the Aopen label.

newegg.com also has the Toshiba M1502-S 16x DVD, pretty good drive i hear.

Try Pricewatch.com for those other things, but for the RAM I'd suggest get Crucial
