Seen lots of lower-power (literally and figuratively) rig questions lately-for a media server or router etc-and here is a fantastic option for such if you can get to an MC. Processors are $60.

Is the central store better than the one in Westmont?

They are the same. I buy from both. The Westmont store is slower paced and you can get help more easily IMO

ChristTheGreat · Feb 8, 2013

that would make a nice upgrade for people who has old computer.

Too bad, nothing like this in Canada

That's a good question; I have only been to the Westmont store once years ago as I live in the city (hell two apartments ago I could walk to this MC in ten minutes). Though I can say that the immediate area around this store is crowded as hell due it being in a huge big name strip mall right there with a Target, Petsmart, Michaels and giant grocery store too amongst other smaller stores. It is close to 90/94 though.

Sorry for double; wanted to bump.

Called Central store and they tell me there is no combo deal on the A-Series. :/ Wish could share that to the thread on [H] where I found this but I don't really post there so can't in that section.

Aw man, I could have upgraded an old P4 with this... sucks that I can't get this deal in Canada

Binge makes runs to Microcenter and ships out hardware--you may want to check and see if he'll ship to the Great White North

Wrigleyvillain · Feb 9, 2013

I'd call first. Glad I did. If I was closer like I used to be I'd just go over there with a print out.
