I am trying to (for lack of better words) pimp out my computer. Does anyone know of a store in the Pittsburgh area where I can get computer parts for cheap?

thanks

well. you can probably get parts from places like newegg.com a lot cheaper than you could somewhere that has a live sales person

I bought a motherboard from newegg, A+ service, try buying the parts at frys! EXPENSIVE! try atxcases.com for some cool cases, yeah clear case, neon light, all-in-wonder graphics card.

yeah. your computer can never reach the level of "p1mp" without first reaching the level of "runs linux"

Hmm. pimpin', eh? Put some 20" rims on it.. with some spinnarz... and some of that bling bling headgear... oh, sorry. (I'm white) Hmm. Just mainly worry about what's on the inside first. My computer is inside a Compaq case (it's not a Compaq, as I built it). I got the monitor, speakers, and case for $80 at Staples one day. The inside is where it counts though. (Gig of RAM, 200 gig harddrive, 2.6 Ghz AMD Athlon processor, Radeon 9600 XT video card, etc.) But I have added external features over time.
