best place to get an amd system

What's the best place to have an amd system build through?

Check out www.monarchcomputer.com (http://www.monarchcomputer.com) They offer warranties that equal retail boxed items with OEM prices. The site is being updated right now so you can't place an online order currently.

A pretty prominent frined of mine here on the board recently got one from PeachPC and got a really good deal. No matter where you go, check these two resources first!
www.pricewatch.com (http://www.pricewatch.com) For the best prices www.resellerratings.com (http://www.resellerratings.com) For input and info on companies and how they do business.

Good luck
Dave

Check out www.nextechinc.com (http://www.nextechinc.com) I will be ordering an AMD system from them within 3 weeks. They have good ratings on www.resellerratings.com (http://www.resellerratings.com) . and I have had about 4 email correspondeces with them and the always return a reply the next day. I hope the turn out to be a good company to deal with. They are listed under NexGen technologies on reseller. Their prices seem really fair, I have found sites with cheaper prices by about 100 dollars on the same system, but they do not rate very good on resellerratings.com Hope this helps you

Thanks. This is for my friend who wants to buy one from gateway and I think they are probably not the cheapest place to buy from.

I had a combo (1.2G TBird C / HS-FOP38 / Abit KT7A put together by PeachPC (http://www.peachpc.com/index.asp?CartId=1009583EGAWK6) and am very happy with it.

Three weeks now, fast and stable as a rock http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif Talk to "Emad" at 800.804.3207 or email sales@peachpc.com , Subject: Emad. Discuss what components you want, they built me the above combo even though it wasn't listed on their site. MR COMPUTER recommended me to PeachPC, so I know they had to be okay.

If you get a board with VIA chipset, make sure to do your research! The VIA drivers can be tricky to configure.
