It’s been awhile since I looked into building a PC, so I’m not sure what some of the better stores may be, or which may have swapped hands/changed approaches and aren’t as reliable as they once were.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions/advice!

    The last computer I built (not for me) was a mix of Amazon, Memory Express and Canada Computers (got the list from PC PartPicker).

    Amazon had the memory and CPU I wanted; MemEx had the mobo, PSU and case; and CC had the monitor. I tried to get everything from MemEx though, but they just didn’t have everything I needed.

    May be worth mentioning that NewEgg is now hellah anti-consumer. I would avoid them at all costs.

      Pre-2014 or so I was 85% Newegg or more.

      Post, I’ve been 85%+ Amazon. I buy from B&H when I can, but honestly Amazon tends to dominate the PC partlicker list.

      To clarify - I removed Newegg from the vendor list. Won’t even look at them.
