Just a few final thoughts. see my last post in addition to this..

- I added all the newegg items into my cart to check shipping cost (except the $5 mouse because it's out of stock), and the cheapest shipping was $28.34 to New York. Wouldn't you have to pay some kind of tax as well? So the price is $378.34 + tax, not $350.
- He chose a dvd reader instead of a dvd writer in order to save $3.
- that case includes no fans, and no case fans are budgeted in this build.
- That 80gb harddrive is laughable for any modern PC, especially when considering many games take up 4gb+ each.

Not sure if anybody answered this, but if you were ordering from Newegg then you would not have to pay sales tax if you are in New York.

"Newegg.com charges the appropriate state and/or local sales tax for any order shipping to California, New Jersey, and Tennessee."

I remember before when I was living in California I would always have to pay sales tax when buying from Newegg, as they are located in California.
