Good online computer part stores?

Post by Isaac »

There's a few parts I'm looking for that work really well on linux, but I can't find an online store I trust, anywhere on the internet, that carries it.
I normally buy everything from newegg or drive over to Frys Electronics. But neither of them carry the compatible parts.

What online computer stores have you bought from and trust? Thank you.

I've gotten some good deals from them. But not online. I have one 10 minutes from where I live.

What exactly are you looking for? I have found laptop parts from a couple reputable vendors, while PC parts I usually get from Newegg or locally.

paranoid.. aren't we

I seem to have a better workout dodging your stupidity than attempting to grasp the weight of your intelligence.

To be specific, Newegg I use almost exclusively; TigerDirect I look at sometimes, same with ZipZoomfly; usually Newegg has the lowest price and I love their service. For laptop screens, SmartMicro USA. I have not found a 100% solid laptop parts vendor yet except for SmartMicro for screens.

Thanks you guys. It seems like I can't buy it brand new. None of those guys sell the parts I need. :(
Thanks for the quick responses! :) :)
