Answer 1

Newegg does have a very good reputation. I'm in Australia and I know about them!

If I was gonna build a computer at the moment, my value for money parts would be:

Intel E8400 or E8500 CPU

Midrange Asus or Gigabyte motherboard

nVidia 9600GT 512MB graphics card

1 or 2 Western Digital SATA Drives (500, 640 or 750 GB)

Don't skimp on the power supply (get quality), get at least 2gb of ram and leave youself enough money for fans, case, etc.

Answer 2

I still find that newegg.com is the cheapest and best place to buy parts. Not only do they ship super-fast, they have the best customer service of ANY business.

Fry's sells parts for cheap however, they repackage returns and sell them. They are marked but sometimes not clearly...

Here is a computer configured exactly as Jasecat suggests for $700
