Building a new computer, first time, is it a good idea to get the extended Newegg warranties on stuff like the video card, etc?

not if they have manufacturer warranties of like 1-3 yrs or even lifetime.

I've built quite a few systems and never bought an extended warranty.

I wouldn't buy an extended warranty from Newegg. Newegg already gives a good warranty for stuff that is DOA or fails quickly, and after that, most reputable hardware company's will warranty their stuff. Besides that, except for hard drives, many of the hardware items are replaced before they get old enough to fail, such as video cards, motherboards, CPUs, etc. Think about it, how many people are using a video card from 4-5 years ago?
