Computer parts locally?

I need to get a new heatsink/thermal paste this weekend?

Are there any local stores that stock this stuff?

Place on the corner of Berg + Orchard Park Rd is a locally owned business, kinda pricey though.

At work we get a bunch of stuff from a place called Great Lakes. No idea if they’re open on the weekend or if they even sell to individuals though.

It’s called technophobia. The guy is really nice, I feel bad that it seems like they’re struggling, I’m glad to hear they’re still open… They have tons of stuff.

I will check out this technophobia place…

Does anyone know if they have a website? I googled and only found the location.

see my edit.

Newman thanks for the huge nerd input :tup:

Be warned, I was gonna buy a powersupply from technophobia but I put it back down when they said no returns

Also their main brand is Thermaltake parts which is a kinda crappy brand…

and their stuff is overpriced, I believe they just buy directly from newegg and mark it up 20% or something

I need a heatsink and thermal paste…

I have everything else…I ordered shit from newegg but it won’t be here till next week and I need this computer running for a lab.

USitek off of military. Across from Freewheeling.

What socket heatsink? I have a stock Intel 775 one with thermal paste already on it. I haven’t even cracked the package. I too was in desperate need of thermal paste, as I misplaced my good stuff.

I need one for a AMD 6400+

Damn, can’t help you there…I’m assuming that is a AM2 socket? If I can find my tube of Zalman thermal paste you can have it…I use the arctic silver, it spreads well and works great. I would indeed check the place newman suggested. I’ve been meaning to hit that place up.

When will newegg start retail stores :frowning:

Yea its AM2

I’m going to run over there shortly…

arctic cooling mx2 > all other pastes

They had a shitty heatsink and it will be fine till next week when my newegg order shows up.

What was your overall opinion of the place? Worth the drive (20-30min for me)? Good selection/prices?

Thats same place I mentioned (before newman) no its a crappy store ProgRocker

that sucks…I think CompUSA would do better here nowadays…Wish we still had that around.

thermaltake is crappy?, might wanna research a bit
