I've only used Newegg, but there are a lot of other great stores out there. I built a rig just a couple months ago, and Newegg had the best prices on everything. I don't think they have the best prices on that many things now, but Newegg still has great customer service, pretty fast shipping, and fairly good prices.

I'd also like to try monarch computers because they told me they can ship to postal boxes in Canada.

For me...

1. Newegg 1% of the time
2. Computer Geeks 4% of the time
3. Fry's electronics 15$ of the time
4. Craigslist - the rest.

 

[jadinolf]

newegg for as little as I buy.

It's always nice to get my order the morning after I order.

Why if you're desperate? I used pricegrabber lately and their memory and video card prices were on top of the list several times.

Monarch's quality and service has been going down the hill lately, so many Anandtechers have stopped recommending them.

 

[daniel1113]

ZipZoomFly and NewEgg, along with an occasional other site if the item I need is really hard to find.

newegg is #1
