hes in canada and the first few of your links dont work

not to mention the nasty shipping fees that newegg charges for their customers in canada

The big troll, I like your recommendation a lot but I was just wondering why you did not include a heatsink+/fan for the cpu. Do any of those parts already come with one o.o?
