Yeah, where did this myth come from that there's a magic ratio of frequency to cas latency? Need to look at the numbers as one thing, nanoseconds.

It was worth it for me since the price difference was only $20 and I'm a cable Nazi. I think Newegg has the 960 Evo for $100 with free shipping.

Damnit Fry's cancelled my mobo and processor order. Now I'm back to the drawing board.

What do we have in BR for PC hardware? Computer Heaven? They'd sell you a 5-year-old chipset for $200.

I go to Frys every time I'm in houston. MC is far superior.

I would pay up to a 25% premium for the convenience of getting my hands on hardware today.

I wont pay a 200% premium.

These shops still think its 1994 and the only way I can order computers is through PC Magazine.

Definitely the case, but I usually go to Fry's because it takes thirty minutes longer to drive to MC than it does to go to one the 4 Fry's. :(
