They charge tax in any State that they have a store or Warehouse. I live in Tn. and get charged tax because of a warehouse in Memphis. 50% of the time I can get it from Tiger cheaper because of tax. But Tiger has less of a selection most of the time.
 
Ray, if newegg is going to be more expensive for you, look for those parts on amazon, tiger or whatever else you think might be cheaper.
They WILL make you a better computer.
 
how will it make a better computer,even if the taxes make it mor, a shellshocker will make the taxes still be less than the normal cost half the time.
 
again, you will be so much better off if you'd save up untill you can buy all the remaining parts at once, if you have a part you are determined to get and don't look around when it's time to get it liklyhood is that there will be a newer and or better gpu for the same or similar price that you could've gotten, but didn't , or there'll be something new that you can't get cuz it is incompattable with something you bought 2 months ago.

How would a sata 6 HDD or faster ram not make a better computer? and I don't know what a shellshocker is?
I do agree with you though, buying it all at once is a much better idea.
 
i was talking about how you said other sites WILL make it worth it to use them, but newegg has the same parts and normally cheaper than others, even though the taxes make it more, how will they make it better, and a shellshocker is a deal on newegg that only lasts a couple hours and takes the price at least 25% off i think, normally more, sometimes alot more off, but they run these 24/7/365, every day i get an email with that days deals, and newegg also has other sales every couple days, weekend express sales, and holiday specials, that's whay so many people like them other than their already low prices

There would've been far too many boxes to get rid of/recycle. For the rest, just bought only one Spinpoint F3 HDD, I'm saving it up. I'll worry about the monitor and GPU later.

Oh... Everything is so much cheaper in america, my build was $825 here and on the same day I bought it, all the same parts were only like $720-ish on newegg. Wish they shipped here.

I said that he could use other sites because he seems to have a problem with a really good looking/sounding website.

Edit*
Just say Ray's newest post, I keep all of my boxes in the case box, mainly so that later on I can sell them, and I didn't read the warranty terms, they might want boxes.

+1

And why is it so hard to get rid of/ recycle boxes? There's a thing called a recycle bin you know :P
 
So for the discs which come with stuff. Do these discs with drivers need to be installed before I put Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit on the computer? Especially for the BIOS I think.
Glad I waiting to build my own computer this year especially since all parts I chose would've been far too expensive if I wanted to build a computer a couple years ago.
Thanks WOLFENSTEIN for finally giving me the much needed motivation to build my own computer.
 
without windows there's nothing for the drivers to install in, windows creates the paths for the drivers to use, and without windows you can't even boot anyways so you have to install windows first
 
Ok so first thing to do once you have built the computer:
1: boot from the cd drive with the windows 7 disk in it and follow the steps to install windows 7.

2: install your latest gpu drivers (not from the disk it came with) the manufacters website, should be either nvidia or ATI, (this will give you the latest drivers rather than the ones on the disk)

3: (recommended) install your chosen anti virus software (I use kapersky)

4: next time you boot your computer make sure your ssd or HDD, whichever has the OS installed is the first boot priority.

Thanks. Kinda strange this information is coming from a 13 year old.
Glad no one has given any negative opinion about the Blu-ray disc burner.:good:

1'st mistake, got an am3 mobo so bulldozer means a brand new mobo, and intel's are much faster too, and idk if hec is a good psu so can't comment but i don't think they are, otherwise no problems.

You stated for him that intel's are faster, but for my budget build AMD would be cheaper?
