If you're looking for prices check http://www.pricewatch.com/ ... I've built many a system using that site.

I think newegg.com is a great place to start, but I mostly went through pricewatch.com.

Screw pricewatch.com Goto newegg.com. Newegg.com is GOLDEN. You will ALWAYS be satified with prices. They are VERY RELIABLE. Myself, my brother, my friends, and family have ordered COUNTLESS items from newegg, including cases, motherboards, soundboards, speakers, hardrives, ram, etc. It's good. Trust me. It's holiday sales are phenomial too. I bought a XP-2500 for 90$! That's right 90 BUCKS, and it's been working good ever since!. I overcloaked it to a XP-2800, hehe.

Don't shop at allstarshop.com. Allstarshop.com is bad, very bad. I've ordered many things from it, and they've been flawed, have had issues, and I've had to send them back.

BOO TO NEWEGG! I have had 3 HORRIBLE experiences with them.

I echo the sentiment on allstarshop though. Several of my friends have had hellacious experiences with them getting 3 and 4 subsequent defective parts.

I would suggest zipzoomfly.com or MonarchComputer.com.

I pricewatch more than my fair share of stuff, but if something is within 10% of pricewatch price and I can get it at one of the two, I do.

I never buy online, I have a parts shop run by chinese 20 meters from home. Being a regular repeat customer they are always nice and even changed me a burnt CPU, which I guess you'll never see in online shops.

MOST people have had good experiences with newegg.com I'm sorry you had horrible ones kebernet, however the good reviews at newegg.com out-weigh the bag.

What problems have you had?
