    my recent build the bulk came from tigerdirect /newegg /amazon. you want to bulk your shipments as to not incur extra costs. (i have amazon prime so i try to use them since it costs me 3 bucks to ship next day)

    anyway i got an extra $90 or so on rebates (which i totally take advantage of) i gotta thank Boz for his help on the recommendations.
