www.newegg.com or www.zipzoomfly.com have never treated me wrong.

Yup... I will go with zipzoomfly.com since shipping is only $10 for Hawaii.

$644 from zipzoomfly and $672 from newegg I think zipzoomfly will win though as they offer free Fedex 2nd day even to Hawaii

Dont waste your money on the board unless it supports duel channel DDR memory. It's a little more expensive but it's worth the money.
I always buy all my stuff from newegg.com personally.
as for the processor go with either a 3000+ or a 3400+ all the rest of the AMD 64's 2800-3300 dont perform any better then the 3000+, and anything above 3400+ doesn't really speed things up, plus the price really starts to jump after that.
There is a few more things you would want to look at but it's too long to post here. If you have any questions i'll go into more detail.
