    Amazon or Newegg. Used both and got great deals. Wait to see what deals take place over the holiday sales.

    I used to use newegg exclusively for computer equipment but as of late Amazon seems to have just as good prices and I have a Prime account so get the 2 day free ship or $3.99 overnight on everything. LOL I even bought a 150lb generator and had it overnighted for $3.99. I was so lucky as it got here just in time for a hurricane and 4 day power outage. Back on track, amazon's return policy is better IMO now also. Newegg will charge return shipping where amazon does not. Just be careful not to buy from Amazon sellers that are not fulfilled by amazon themself.
