What are some good computer stores online where I can buy parts for a new computer I am building? I need a store with cheap prices. I need the site to have all the parts on there. I don't want to be ordering from a bunch of sites. I'd appreciate it if you guys could hook me up with some good links. Thanks
You're asking to get flamed...do a search for cheap computer parts or something. That's how I found this one.

Do keep in mind, I have NO experience with the website. Use your own judgement.
tigerdirect.com
No offense guys but tiger is a bit expensive at times.

Peace!
Directron is fantastic!
I was just shopping new power supplies and they had one with highlighted text at the top of the page advising people not to buy as they were having high RMA's on that particular brand.
Wow..when was the last time you saw a company advise you NOT to buy a product they were selling?
Only thing, watch shipping charges on larger items, they'll nail you. :mad:
Tiger's been getting fairly pricy lately - particularly on things like Vid boards... at least, compared to others I've seen at who-knows-where-anymore... *shrug*
i like http://www.newegg.com
i get decent deals from a guy at www.microwarehouse.com
networking equip i get from www.blackbox.com
some good choices above, but be sure to compare prices..
www.pricewatch.com will give you some of the best prices on new
and refurbished items.. with the links to the various vendors.
me, i prefer to go to computer fairs that have a lot of vendors and haggle amoungst
them.. saying.. "yeah but this guy over there will give me this for that"
but building your own these days, as for saving money, doesn't go as far as it used to.
(it's great for learning 'tho.. ) as they can put together a custom box in 30 mins with
software preloaded, 2 yrs warranty, etc. (of course it's xp now.. which i won't use)
overall.. i guess i like to see what i want up front.. getting it from a somewhat local
vendor in case of problems.. and go home that day with it to load up whatever
software i need... with toys.. "i wanna play, right after i pay" ;) :D
as said directron is good....

www.ibuyer.net ....type in what you want and wham...they find the best price for you
I'm with sumdumguy. Pricewatch is where I do my shopping. You just have to be very careful and pay attention to the shipping costs. Sometimes people will have a great price for a hard drive that is 5 bucks lower than everyone else, but they charge 10 bucks shipping. But if you look carefuly, you'll probably find one of the "more expensive" retailers with free shipping. It always pays to do your research.
