Good call. It's not hard, either…

www.ncix.com - I believe they're right on Boundry rd. in BBY. Worth the trip if you decide not to buy complete.

they're on boardway.
check www.pricewatch.com for best prices.

if you decide to buy a full system, make sure they're not giving you crappy vid card or ram… Most cheap pre built systems only has a nice cpu and crappy everything else

i used to buy lotsa hardware from atic - cheap cheap cheap. but i didn't like their service (or lack of), especially the evil lady working up front who slams hard drives onto the counter.

now i buy from a-power.com -[HTML_REMOVED] in bby and richmond. some prices are higher, some are lower than atic - but people actually smile and say thank you. i build my own systems, so i don't give a rats a$$ about service, but i just dread the day i need warranty or other support… and dealing with the evil atic lady.

That lady is gone as far as I know.

Atic is great for people who know what they want.

There is no bullshit, no salespeople trying to get you to buy something else.
