    Taking time to build my dream machine. looking for great price on both
    motherboard and CPU. Thinking of sticking with AMD.
    Also if you have similar advise on purchasing quality memory modules,
    it would be appreciated.

    TIA

    Newegg: www.newegg.com . Excellent prices, most items have free
    shipping (UPS) in the U.S.
    The NF7-S is an excellent motherboard and the XP2500+ easily overclocks
    to 3200+ speeds by simply raising the FSB to 200 MHz. Get decent PC3200
    memory (very low prices at this time).

    Regarding memory, if you have money to spend, get Corsair XMS low
    latency memory, PC3500, or PC3200 if you don't plan on pushing the FSB
    above 200 MHz. Next best would be OCZ. If you want good quality
    inexpensive memory, get Buffalo Technology.

    Memory Express. They're on Macleod Trail just south of downtown.

    These came from newegg.com. I was very impressed with their selection,
    and with the amount of data available for their mobos (on a separate
    tech specs page linked off the main page for the mobo, as I recall).
    Price was good, as well.

    As for memory, can't help you -- I've never bought premium RAM.
