Where to buy computer parts in Hong Kong?

[ChrisADuffy]

I am going to Hong Kong soon, I am trying to find out the place to buy computer parts. Is there anything similar to Sim Lim centre (Singapore) there?

come to the US and you can find everything here 😀

maybe some local shops in HK should have some...

There's a place call "Golden Computer Center" in "sum shui bo" in HK... the underground level sells tons of software, and the upper level sells hardware...

There are also a couple of complexes similar to this one in HK, but the name escapes me for the moment...

bcyl, Is that on the Kowloon side?

Yes I believe so.... Just take the MTR, and there's a station call "Sum Shui Bo" (spelling is approx, but u should be able to figure it out)... Once u get off there, there are directions inside the station for "Golden Computer Center" (ie. Which exit of the station u should take to get there)... the complex is right across the street from the correct station exit...

hmm, station oversea on what? a battle ship or anything? how do you get internet on a ship? interesting...

 

[ChrisADuffy]

Joony, I am on a cruiser, the battleships have all been decomissioned. Ships have internet access these days! Modern times.

 

[Joony]

ships have internet these days!? satalite internet or something? how fast is it? wow...why are the battleships decommisioned? whats the difference between a battleship and a cruiser? i ask too much.

Oh BTW, hardware prices in HK are not particular cheap... in fact the prices in the States are probably cheaper... so dont expect go find a lot of good deals there...

Now if you are talking about software, that's a different story... nothing beats $6 US for Windows XP pro... 🙂

 

[ChrisADuffy]

Your right. That is asking a lot!

how about newegg? that APO thing or something...if i remember correctly, thats for military purposes or soemthing.
