Here is a link to Micro Center's AMD processor and motherboard bundle page.

These are usually good deals and it is updated regularly.
If you check the bottom of the page,there are usually cheap bundles for under $100.
Right now there is a 4 core and 6 core bundle under $100.
Good for a decent build.

They also almost always have Intel bundles, usually $40 off when you combine CPU/Mobo. So you can get an even better build for around $125.

Place is great, if you live near a Micro Center there is no reason to buy your processor and board anywhere else.

When I researched and built mine a couple of years ago, I bought the processor from MC on one of their sales. I already had alternate plans for the mobo, but I was taking the whole thing slow and easy.

Lo and behold, a week later MC emails me--"hey, you bought this processor, I bet you're building a system, how about these special offers just for you?" Yeppers! I still bought the mobo off Ebay for half price, but as I recall the rest of it came straight from MC at good prices.

And now I know my strategy for building my next one...
