i get all my parts from msy in pascoe vale, cheapest parts ive come across, but ive never checked prices of stores in the city... its right next to pascoe vale station so you could just catch a train that way and then back into the city, except its a bit out of your way if you have no other reason to go there, if you had an hour or so it could be worth it though...

i hered somewhere that this place is uber busy, is that true? theyre prices are amazing tho

MSY has super long queues all the time.
same with the one here at Caulfield

[jacksplatt11]

yeah it can get busy at times, but they work through the people pretty quick so you're never stuck there too long.. sometimes there is 1 or 2 people in line, sometimes maybe 8.. just depends when you get there haha

i went there in the start of their business once at 9am or 10am on the Saturday.
about 5-6 person, mostly elderly man were already outside the "unopened" door waiting

[jacksplatt11]

yeah saturdays are definitely the worst, ive never gone on a sat for that very reason.. people going early to get parts on their day off, crazy.. my friend said once the line backed up past the shop next to it

This place sounds like a "Dodgy Brothers' everything PCs" :D except that they actually know what they're doing... :)

I've got a couple of extra graphics cards Blackie. I'll dig them out and tell you what they are.

ahh its cool TDD, wnet to MSY and picked up one for $39

on another note, does anyone want to buy/swap for a 1gig stick of DDR2 667 ram, i made a wrong assumption and it doesnt fit my comp (i need 400...) if noone is interested ill try and flog it off to a mate. only looking for ~$20
