This should be interesting then.
Do you know exactly what the warranty covers?

now that you mention it... it says 3 years for shipping damages(?) and defective products.. BUT Motherboard, Hard Drive, CPU, RAM, Video Card are just on a limited one year deal.. lol. Free shipping anyway. and 24/7 tech support that I'd never use

I think you're getting screwed.
Most RAM carries a lifetime warranty these days, HDDs- 5 years, CPUs- 3 years.
This assumes you are the initial buyer, which in this case, you aren't.
Seems like you are actually getting less coverage through this vendor than you would get by yourself.
The 24/7 tech support is probably worthless as well and there is no sales tax on internet sales anyway (I assume you don't live in Cali...) so I fail to see what the advantage for you is.

That case might work well too. It certainly has a lot of room.
Update, well this is what I ended up getting. I know its not the greatest of setups, but was a lot better than my original. Plus I mean I don't need bleeding edge technology, just nicer than my P4 oven that I have now. Thanks for all your help!

I'll mention this again, like my previous post...
Now that you actually got it why don't you post the make/model(s) of the parts used.
These 3 items are the ones I'm referring to.
I point this out to you because I think it's important that you really know what you're purchasing.DVD Drive: 18X DVD±R/±RW + CD-R/RW DRIVE DUAL LAYER

You wouldn't buy a car just knowing it's engine size but totally unaware what make/model it is. Would you?
Oh yeah, I was meaning to wait to post until I physically got it to check it out and see, but that other computer post was around and I wanted that OP to see this one.
Its supposed to be shipped this week, so I'll learn soon!
