I would disregard canada computers,i don't know how they do that with their prices but they don't seem to be the same on their site.

You could also take a look at the next two items as replacement for what is in the list,
http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/antec-case-gx700
a very good case when it comes to cooling and sound,but quite ugly if you don't like that kind of style.

a very good cooler for the price although the zalman for just $10 is hard to beat.

The deal probably ended on Canada Computers and PCPartPicker didn't update it.
