I agree completely on the vendor pricing. That's why I love going to the shows. You can just walk 10 feet down to the next guy and get it cheaper. The shows up here in CT are all close by and they are for the most part the same vendors. I've had trouble with components and have brought them back at the next show for an exchange.

Comment on Pricewatch

I like to use resellerratings.com in tandem
with Pricewatch. If a place has a good quantity of feedback
the info is valuable. The less feedback there is the less
reliable the info is.

Happy Christmas & Merry New Year everyone

Thanks for the feedback, Esteban!

I found this site: www4.tomshardware.com which gives a lot of detail on the various components and then has a price comparison applet which seems to offer a lot of competition.

I will cross-check these against your recommendation of Price Watch to fine tune the process.

Wishing you and yours and all who visit this board a Merry Christmas, Happy Holiday, and Happy New Year!
