Yeah, unless I'm just stupid and can't find it, I don't believe they have a place here in Hawaii.

Edit:

So here is what I have as of right now. I can buy right now if I have to. Anyways..

I'm just going to use the monitor and keyboard my dad brought from Iraq until I can scrap up enough money to get them.

Well, I talked to my parents about it, and aside from my mom telling me she found some discounts for NewEgg, they also mentioned that I could ship it to my dads friend. My dad is going to go visit him this month, and so my dad comes back, he can just bring along the computer. That'll save me that extra $100 off of shipping.

Well, I finally bought my computer.

It ended up being a little over $1,000, but that was because I upgraded a few things.

Bad news, I still had to pay the $100 shipping because it wouldn't get to where my dad is in time. And really, when you think about it. it's just more of a pain for him to take care of, plus I would have to wait until the end of January/beginning of February.

I'm still happy though. I can't wait to build my computer : P

Anyways, this can be locked or kept open for discussions and such.

Edit:

When I get enough money again, I'm going to go ahead and buy possibly two new monitors (depends on how much money I have), a new keyboard, and a new mouse + mouse pad.

Spoiler: Links (click to show/hide)

I just want something that I will love. That goes for everything listed (keyboard, monitors, mouse pad)

Also, while I'm at it, I was thinking about getting a new router. The one I currently have keeps derping up every so often. (it's around 5yrs old).
Any suggestions?

Bump.
I made a deal with my dad, so I can get the stuff now instead of waiting.

Anyways, what would you suggest for a keyb oard, monitor, and mouse?
I'm buying two monitors too.

Is what I posted good?

Boy, dont you be crying like this over a single DOA.
Frank, yeah NEC tends to be good, but they tend to cost a lot.
Asus, along with mobos, make epic displays.
G500 is a solid mouse from logitech (I recommend it till the day I die)
and keyboard... Go with something not from razer. Cant go too wrong as long as you follow that piece of advice.

Great choice of monitor, If I could find one in Australia I would get it. For a mouse I use the Razer Deathadder. It's pretty comfortable and it fits my big hand.
DO NOT get a Razer keyboard. Nearly all of them are faulty. A friend of mine has wasted $150 on a keyboard with faulty LED's
For a router I have the Billion 7800N, It works great with good wireless signall, though its setup can be a problem. Anyways;
Enjoy your new rig!

For keyboard, if you want a regular keyboard a Microsoft Sidewinder x4
For mouse, I loves me my Razer Deathadder

A good brand of computer peripherals is Logitech.
