Newegg now gets owned by Microcenter IMO. Buying a motherboard locally is worth it's money even if it's an extra 20 dollars, I had to replace mine once before I got one that worked.

I just built a Q6600 (Quad 2.6GHz @ 3.2GHz on stock cooling), 750i SLI motherboard, 4GB of 1066MHz RAM and some other stuff for less than $1000.

Overall I saved about 100 dollars by going with Microcenter over newegg, WITH tax and shipping figured in both.

Then again, that's if you build your own.
