i'm going to build a system in about a month, but i need to find places to buy parts. i'm talking everything... from cases, to the actual components, to monitors and speakers, to custom fan grilles, cold cathodes, window kits, watercooling kits, etc etc etc. i should probably post it on the general hardware section, but i figured since i'm asking for modding parts also and since i've been pretty much only posting here, i thought i'd stick it here. aside from pcmods.com, newegg.com and pricewatch.com, are there any other places i should look into? thanks.

FOR CATHODES GO HERE! Starfox dug this place up, just buy the individual components (inverter, molex, rocker, cathode, tube) and you can pretty much get 2 cathodes SHIPPED for 29 bucks! :O

(like I said, don't buy the kit, there's no deal there, put it together yourself)
And you know about pricewatch of course, use that as it's a valuable tool, but don't forget to check new store's reseller ratings!

www.svcompucycle.com (for mod parts, they have cold cathodes for $15)
www.teamexcess.com (for surplus parts such as hard drives, monitors, CD/DVD drives, etc. They're great for SETI/Folding parts on the cheap)
