this is all at www.mwave.com they will put it togather for you for like 50.00 I think, I build my own but call and see. the reason I chose the P4 2.8 was its very overclockable. I hate PC vendors there prices are just way to over priced.

Go to www.newegg.com. Definitely the best place to get anything computer related. You can build a better system then Bastion's for less.

 

[Bastion]

no not really I use new egg alot for other stuff & usually mwave beats them out almost 95% of the time on a whole system that is.

[Bastion]

crabcakes66, my point was go take these items and go build a system at alienware and see what price you come up with. This system is kinda maxed out pick and choos what you want. I just was trying to help this guy not waste his money on a DELL or alienware pc. I build PC's for people and I cant set them up with XP corp.

 

[Crunkles]

I dont think newegg.com ships to canada, go to www.ncix.com they are based in canada and will pricematch to any other Canadian retailer.

 

[P Meister Flex]

ABS all the way pal

Just a tip dude, if you're buying a P4 make sure to get faster RAMs than PC3200.

Why? Do you know that if you get faster RAM then PC3200, it runs at PC3200 until you OC. If your getting a 3.2, or a 3.0 P4 your not going to take it far, so theres no need for high speed RAM. On the other hand, if you buy a 2.4C, then PC3700-PC4000 is reccommended, and make sure to check it does tight timings.
