If you are going to spend that much on a Pentium rig. You might as well spend another 60 bucks and get the better ram. Corsair is good stuff, but the value select is their bottom rung. OR, Get a gig of the value select!

Online or locally?

Other than the case...Too expensive.

Have a look at newegg.
Better quality (faster)Corsair Ram from 123.50-145.00 bucks for a 512MB stick of CAS2 (if you have the cash, get two).

If not...
1Gig.Twin Packs of LL for 152.50

You "definetly" want to utilize the Dual Memory Channel feature.

The board is the same price (not sure which REV. though, does it matter? I'm not up on this board. A simple e-mail to any vender requesting REV. info etc. will be answered usually the next day).

I'm sure they have a better deal on the cpu too.
Retail 171.00

If your not queezy about the warranty, get a OEM processor, and a better (copper) heat sink and fan.

OEM processor 166.00

Copper Sink (SLK-800-U) 38.99 (6.00 s&h)
(SLK-947-U) 42.99 (6.00 s&h)
A decent 80mm or 92mm fan for about 7.00-15.00 (5.00 s&h)

I your gonna overclock, get the good stuff.
If not, you can still save a few $$.

Sorry for the ramble.
