Are you going to build one from ground up, or do you have other parts from an old PC that you could use? If you don't need those cd drives because you already have ones that work, then don't buy them unless you really want a new one.

But if you are buying everything new, then good luck. There are plenty of good deals to be found, just don't rush into buying something that you feel is a good buy. Do some research on parts that come with your purchase. For instance, that motherboard that you found isn't exactly cutting edge. If you were to upgrade in the future, you would have to buy a new mobo again.

{edit} Consider shipping charges if you are buying off the net. Usually shipping a system with a case costs way more. I would recommend buying your own case, that way you know that you will like it.

I've built computers out of ebay parts, they work just fine, but there is always that possibility of receiving a bad part.

I'm blabbing, but anyways just do some research, research, and research....Or you can just ignore me and buy whatever.
