Recommended CPU/mobo vendor?

[Guest]

I'm buying components for my new system, and have saved the best for last. Can you recommend a reputable online vendor who has

a) 1.0-1.2 ghz Athlon Thunderbirds
b) Abit KT7 RAID mobo
c) quality heatsink/fan combo
d) has good tech support, this is my first system assembly

Good rating on www.resellerratings.com is a must, of course. I'm not looking for rock bottom prices, I'll pay more for good service and support.

Thanks in advance.

You know, you need good solid Cases,and powerful ATX P/S aleast ATX 300W.If is AMD Approved/Recommended P/S is Plus.

Hmmm... check here! like AXion tech,or A-pro. Or HansanSystems will have good Design PC cases,and reliable P/S.

Check them out man.

I have gotten my last two motherboards from:
http://www.tufshop.com/
They have low prices and a 30 day return policy.

I've had very good experiences with Bill at <A HREF="http://www.outsideloop.com" target="_new">http://www.outsideloop.com</A> and Humphrey at <A HREF="http://www.pcnut.com" target="_new">http://www.pcnut.com</A>. Both have gone out of their way to make me feel like a valued customer by providing uncalled for extras. They also sell pretested overclocked combos.

(Bill also has those killer Lite-On cases.)

Tech support for these smaller shops is usually via email. In my experience, Outside Loop responds more quickly to support questions. I presume you can also call them during business hours using their toll numbers.

Thanks so much for your reply. I had heard of PCnut but not Outside Loop. I'll definitely be checking both out.
