    I planned on buying my m860tu from ava direct for $2157 US. It will have a WUXGA matte screen the intel p9500 processor, 2.53GHz, 2GB turbomemory, and the 9800Gt. Everything else i left basic, like having the basic cheap HDD, because i have a microcenter near me so i can get a better one cheap. Also having no OS shipped with it bc i can get vista and xp for free :D .

    So I think that is probably a pretty good sounding deal, and i also live about 3.5hrs away from their business. They seem to have good support because they are still a small business, and i would say the prices they have are around average or even a bit less then average.

    So I just wanted to hear what resellers you guys like best, and what you have bought from them.

    So for me
    Favorite Reseller: AVA Direct

    Pricing: average, but usually cheaper, with no special discounts for students or military, etc...

    Support: good because of traveling distance from where i live to their business, and they are still a small minded business, so actual support can seem more like they care about you and not just your money. :cool:

    Things bought: Nvidia 780i SLI mobo, creative sound card, and the intel E6850 processor.

    Extra stuff: Tons and Tons of options to choose from. Including Desktops to laptops, and even mobo kits.
