TOTAL $3,818.32 $120.93 $3,939.25
Notice that the case is refurbished--saves $100.00+ over a new one plus it has integrated liquid cooling so I save anywhere from $75.00 to $250.00 on CPU cooling, same for the monitor at about $200.00 or so, and so on.
Since my spreadsheet does not work in this mode, the 1st dollar amount is the actual cost, the 2nd is the shipping, and the 3rd is the total cost of the component. If there are only 2 dollar amounts, that means shipping was free.
I started buying components late last month.

I know some kids in Houston that think they need to spend that much on a gaming system.
What is worse is that they only play WOW.
I smell a scam:
TalkQwest.com doesn't exist.
The seller: jiggaoutlet, attempts to hide his name with white on white font.
The seller also only has 25 feedback entries...hardly a store front.
