Store shopping list
SavannahLion:
Like a dummy, I wiped out my PC shopping links during one of my transfers. I guess I figured keeping links to (at the time) dead store chains and defective OEM repackagers, there wasn't really any point in keeping them.
I'm kind of wishing I had. I remember the following links:
frys.com (so so selection)
newegg.com (better selection)
pricewatch.com (consists of about 80% of OEM repackagers)
amazon.com (not usually my first choice)
ebay.com (eh....)
Now since reading here, I've picked up on
tigerdirect.com (not so great customer service)
And... that's about what I can recall really.
I'm building a home server (Linux) and trying to decide if it would be worth it to resurrect one of my old motherboards (either an Abit BH6/Celeron 300 or an Asus ??/AMD K62 at about 500Mhz). I doubt any of the boards survived storage very well and I'm restricted with the drive capacity. On top of that, I have to contend with the much smaller memory space of 384MB vs GB+ systems of today. Not really a challenge I feel up to contending with for a home server. So I figure I can assemble a minimal system on the cheap.
I remember reading about just this discussion, in several threads in fact, but the evil colds from Hell weaken my SearchFu. :banghead:
Hoopz:
Tigerdirect is great unless you want a rebate. I haven't ordered from them in a couple of years so it may have changed. :dunno
ChadTower:
Newegg's rebates have gone into the toilet. They used to carry only reliable rebates but the last two I tried both took 3x longer than stated for a response and the check never came for either. They seem to have gotten into bed with some of the sketchy rebate companies lately.
Ginsu Victim:
I pretty much use Newegg and Tigerdirect. I can't think of anywhere else I've ordered parts from. The rebates haven't been a problem for me (because I never try to redeem them).

Newegg is topnotch
