Where do you get your parts?

Exfoliate · 15-05-2005, 05:03 AM

What online (or local) store do you get your computer components from? I use Newegg and Mwave my self but do you have any better alternatives. Post away and thanks.

I use newegg, and pricegrabber.

ninja fetus · 15-05-2005, 04:14 AM

ebay. Newegg. I've picked up most of my parts from Fry's though, I can't wait/justify shipping.

Exfoliate · 15-05-2005, 04:31 AM

Fry's, hmmm, never heard of it, never make it up my way I guess.

ninja fetus · 15-05-2005, 04:56 AM

it's a chain of stores across the US, www.outpost.com it's their site..they kinda pricey though...

I haven't used anything but newegg in quite some time.

Nic · 15-05-2005, 12:00 PM

Local computer fairs and http://www.savastore.com and newegg

Big B · 15-05-2005, 12:24 PM

Newegg or ZipZoomFly, the latter got my business for my last purchase.

WWR · 15-05-2005, 01:06 PM

www.savastore.com or www.overclockers.co.uk

Good prices and good hardware, I use a combination of the two to get the best prices, I got most of my stuff from overclockers and got my new Graphics Card from savastore. My new monitor will be from savastore and my new RAM will be from overclockers.

Exfoliate · 15-05-2005, 04:17 PM

I guess I can't use savastore being from the states and all, but zipzoomfly looks pretty good. Price grabber is the way to go if you must have the very cheapest deal. Thanks everyone.

WWR · 15-05-2005, 05:37 PM

Overclockers might do international shipping on their parts, I'm not sure though.

ThePenguinCometh · 15-05-2005, 05:53 PM

From the Biffa shop (AKA the skip). Never would dream of getting my parts from anwhere else (except maybe Novatech or E-Buyer if I really needed something more up-to-date.

I get most of my stuff from this guy who likes my mom, which is kinda of weird, but its good for computer upgrades, like scabbing an athlon 300, av8 and a centurion coolermaster case for under 200, which should have cost well over 400
