I know many know about Dave but I have to give him a big plug...

I have been in the process of buying a new cpu and he has been awesome to deal with

CS is top notch..if offers help even if it does not always benefit

If your looking for a certain stepping he will let you know and help you buy it....his prices are great too

maybe not as good as monarch with a coupon but there you never know what you will receive

Anyway...I know his name is getting around but everyone needs a pat on the back for excellent service

MODS: I think it is important for the OCers to know where they can get info on steppings and get treated well

Bump. I only hear good things. Might want to give a plug to tankguys.com. They let you know the stepping too.

Did a mod do anything to your original post, Neal? Just curious.

Edit: Oh and I agree that he does an unprecedented work for the community. I'd like to thank him, too.

No Mods have been cool..I just put the bootom disclaimer in hoping they will respect my sentiment

Tankguys seems to be excellent as well..I never worked with them

Dave was terrific with me..really helped me out when he had no real reason too....

CS is always worth alot..we forget this when we are trying to get the bottom line

I am not saying Monarch, Newegg, ZZF etc are not good but they will never cater/assist you like Dave did for me...(I do not think my boring details will add anything)

Ialways like to give a plug to someone who deserves...we are eager to plug a "great deal"..look at HOT DEALS

Dave is a HOT DEAL

I've personally worked with both. Both are great, no questions about it.

Tank Guys slightly messed up my stepping (SPMW instead of FPMW) but I decided to accept it, anyway, and was pleased with the results.

Had I asked for them to swap it out, I'm sure there would not have been an issue.

Thumbs up to both companies (people, In Dave's case), probably some of the best small firms out there.

No..because the the hot deal police will tell me everyone has it cheaper and that is better than CS

No way I would post there I would get creamed

I'd give a plug for both Tankguys and Dave. Both Ben and Dave are AWESOME and offer a great service.

Since my local shop where I could hand pick CPUs closed down, flickerdown has been a good place.
