Just a question, do you have a local microcenter? Also are you in the state of California? Newegg taxes CA residents and a few others so you may want to stray from the Egg if you are in CA.

Should total you at $700. Now that's a rough estimate it could be less or more. But in any matter, it should allow you to get this monitor.
