Default building a computer

my assignment for my microcomputer applications course is to make a price list and product list of my wish list of how i would like my computer to run, does anyone know of any good build-it-your-own computer websites that lists some different prices, speeds, monitors, that and were getting a new computer in the the mail anyday now, and i was just wanting something better to price on for this class.


thanx in advance

www.newegg.com , www.pricewatch.com , www.tigerdirect.com

Jewels just go to those sites and pick the mobo , processor , case, cd drive, floppy Drive, monitor, hard drive, vid card, modem, Nic...

I know most of the new motherboards come with onboard sound and lan and network so that takes 3 off your list.

If you're allowed to cheat, www.iBuyPower.com is great for finding all of the parts that will work harmoniously together. You can pick one of their packages and modify it.

Otherwise, yeah, go to the websites above (I would have named the same 3).

The issue I have with with Alienware is that you can get the same systems for way cheaper if you know where to look for the parts.

But then, you usually never get designs that are as cool.
