Please include EVERYTHING in the price, shipping & handling + taxes , OS, Keyboard & Mouse, Monitor. Every last bit. No overclocking will be done, but I would like you to throw in an after market cooler.

The Price needs to include Shipping, Handling, & Taxes to T3H3J6
It could be cheaper if you order the parts in the US and send them to him.

It won't be. I've already looked at that option.

The shipping to him would cost to much.

Yup. This is why I was asking for help. But it doesn't seem like many Canadians are responding.

This would take the fun out of it for him, but i'm sure that if you build and ship it in the original case box it might be cheaper. You can also keep the boxes or flatten them to send for RMA things...

It'd still cost more. Already looked at that.

Besides, I would never deprive a man of his right to build I'm no communist after all. (Independence Day Joke.)

For buying computers in Canada, use NCIX, newegg.ca doesnt compare.

heres my go at it.

1TB WD Black
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...0&promoid=1078
Gigabyte EP43-UD3L ATX LGA775
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...3&promoid=1078
OCZ XTC Platinum Edition PC2-8500 DDR2 4GB - $20 MIR
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...3&promoid=1078
Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro LGA775
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=17225
Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400 Quad Core Processor LGA775 2.66GHZ
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...9&promoid=1078
Corsair VX550W 550W ATX 12V 41A - $35 MIR
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...4&promoid=1078
XFX Radeon HD 4850 625MHZ 512MB
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...8&promoid=1078
Antec Three Hundred
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...2&promoid=1078
Microsoft Digital Media Pro Keyboard
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...4&promoid=1078
OCZ Eclipse Laser Gaming Mouse
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...7&promoid=1078
ASUS VH202T 20IN Widescreen LCD Monitor
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...4&promoid=1078
Vista Home Premium (you dont get to build the computer if you want the OS cheap)
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=7842

$1100.40 after tax and shipped
$1045.40 after rebates

if you need to lower the price,
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...3&promoid=1078
and
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...l&promoid=1078

or wait untill wednesday for a new sale to start. There was a gtx 275 for $204 CAD earlier on this sale and you can usually expect some steals from NCIX's sales.

I think I might go with that setup, but pick up a 720BE & Gigabyte 790X board

Because the 720BE should be enough, and give the order free ground shipping.
