    Just checking for guys who build computers frequently

    the sites i go to often include newegg, tigerdirect, pricewatch.com, barebonekit.net, geeks.com.

    Im looking into building me another computer

    What im really after is a pretty sweet case for under the 50 dollar price range, of course free shipping is always good too.

    But this question is just in general, for computer deals, where does everyone else go to?

    Thanks

    In the US at least, Newegg, almost exclusively, though some good deals can be had at NCIXUS, TigerDirect, Buy.com, ZipZoomFly and Performance-Pcs.
    For $50, the best case out there is the Antec Three Hundred.

    On the rare occasion that newegg does not have a case that I or my customer like, frozenCPU.com has some nice stuff...but usualy more on the pricy side.

    Pricewatch.com is also usefull sometimes, especialy for laptop hardware. (newegg does not seem to carry any laptop hardware made after 2003)

    That's any motherboard really. I tend to recommend the EP43-DS3L from Gigabyte.
