I did a search but it did not give me any thing thanks . Plus not much for information in that thread every link goes to a place that is far over priced than newegg .

Zipzoomfly is us based and sometimes cheaper than the egg. Also, provantage.com, from what I have seen, is usually cheaper than the egg.

MicroCenter is the best website to buy CPUs from, if you're in the US.

I get most my stuff from ebuyer because of free shipping and great customer service, plus they're usually cheaper. Or I just go where ever's cheapest.

trickson · Jan 17, 2009

WOW I forgot about ZipZoomFly They are cheaper at least the Q9550 is !

NO that place is supper expensive I would never buy from them I would rather buy from best buy than tigger .

ebuyer is amazing. I ordered a fan controller for £6 on super saver delivery, came 2 days later, you really cant get much better!

paulm · Jan 17, 2009

I use bountii.com to try to find the cheapest place to buy, along with google products (is that what they call it?).

I always prefer Amazon because if you have Prime, free 2 day shipping on pretty much everything sold by them (even heavy cases, etc.), overnight shipping 3.99/item, and overnight friday->saturday for 6.99/item...

They have no restocking fee and pay return shipping

Followed by Newegg & ZZF.

Avoid buy.com like the plague (the lesson they taught me with the GTX 280 ordeal)...

DR.Death · Jan 17, 2009

its British its a measurement of money

FordGT90Concept · Jan 17, 2009

I use...

Performance PCs for specialty parts like molex -> P4 connectors, 20 -> 24-pin main power connectors, fancy fans, etc.
Systemax for laptop/notebook PCs.
Amazon for software.
Newegg for hardware/software.

Occassionally I use Xoxide if Performance PCs doesn't carry what I need.

"Pound Sterling"

1 British pound = 1.4745 U.S. dollars
1 Euro = 1.33 U.S. dollars
