newegg.com
they had them for around 90 bucks also but i think now they are like 96 bucks.. plus u have a nice warranty and good rma thing..
or try pricewatch.com and check the resellerratings.com to see if the reseller is trustworthy or not oks!

don't even need reseller ratings. they're the best, hands down. but they only ship to the 48 and extra cost for alaska and hawaii, so try and have a US address forward your order to the moon ;)

Yeah, i got my GeForce 3 from newegg. I was just wondering if there were any other good places to get hardware from. I guess i'll order it from newegg when i get the cash. I'm also going to need a good HS&F.

the heatsink will depend on how much u are willing to spend.. thermaltake volcano heatsinks are nice.. (or are those only for p 4s i forget).. well u can get those or the zalman ones but paying around 40 bucks for a heatsink feels stupid to me i guess.. but ur call.. for the added 40 bucks u can get a fuckin barton 2700 i think or something..

volcanoes fit on P4's and amd's. if u must have that thing, get the volcano 7+. they haven't made a good one since. and 40$ for a HSF takes you a LONG way. if u overclock, get the thermalrights (SLK-900A would be the best. i've go the SK-7).
if not....stock HSF will do.

anyone else use googlegear.com? i built my last rig with everything but the case from there. nice service, comparable to newegg. plus they have free 2 day air s&h on almost everything they sell.
edit googlegear.com is great if you live on the west coast, i get everything a day earlier than the tracking info it seems.
