For those waiting: Shuttle AK35GTR is here! $115 at mwave

[breweyez]

neweggs price is $119 plus $10 for fed-ex shipping. I prefer newegg over mwave in general. Ive heard a lot of folks complain about mwaves customer service when it comes to returns/rma's.

I ordered this board from Mwave a day ago for $115 + $14 for FedEx 2 day shipping so it's exactly the same as newegg. I've ordered from both and have gotten good results from both.

I went with newegg just because of the familiarity/comfort factor. If the price had been ~$20 in difference, I would have gone with mwave. BTW, I also ordered my 512 MB DDR chip to go with this form Crucial; ouch, those prices hurt now after being used to such cheap prices a short while ago. Now,when my income tax rebate gets here, it will be time to look for the best Athlon XP deal. Probably targeting the 1800+, as it looks like the best price/performance chip.

I have ordered from Newegg and Mwave. Both are great vendors. And both have the AK35GTR board (AWESOME BOARD!!!!)
If you are worried about who is better, it all depends on where you live(i.e. taxs and shipping)
I usually order at Newegg, but Mwave is always my backup. But I don't think you will have any major problems with either.
Of course there are always going to be the stories about how this person was done wrong, but any vendor that has been around long enough will have at least a couple of these, meyabe they got a bad part or didn't install it right, you really never know.

But both have the AK35GTR board (AWESOME BOARD!!!!), that I don't think anybody can say it is not 🙂

How is this board different from the Shuttle model AK31 which AXIONTECH has for $85.95?

Newegg's price just went down to $115 + $8 shipping now. Must have seen Mwave's site.
