PCPartPicker is popular with the Reddit community. Their /r/BuildAPC subreddit is highly useful for discussion on these things and PCPartPicker's mardown export option makes it easy to display your components in your thread on Reddit. If you want a source outside of Modacity, you could use Reddit and the PCPartPicker community itself. I always find some cool new insights from both.

Lifehacker put it perfectly:

Next, we've decided to use PCPartPicker to put together our builds. We love it, and think you should use it too—it gives you more flexibility in your part buying, helps you eliminate possibly incompatible components, and makes sure you get he best prices for the items you plan to buy, even if it means you have to buy them from different retailers.
