I spent much of last weekend pricing out a custom build workstation and was having trouble finding a source other than newegg. Amazon is a disorganized mess when it comes to fulfilling very specific hardware needs. TigerDirect is just skeezy. Seems like they should have it made.

I completely agree. I don't buy parts from anywhere but Newegg unless I absolutely have to.

And I just signed up for Shoprunner.com since Newegg joined them. $79/year for 2 day shipping on most everything Newegg carries. Where's your Amazon Prime now?

it's the same cost?

or if you have an EDU email address it can be free

I buy all my components from Tiger Direct, and have had very good luck. I order stuff regular shipping, and it is here the next day.
