No way to know what they will offer but the NewEgg
Shell Shocker Sneak
Peak says the Friday afternoon deal this week will be a PC power
supply. If you're not in a big hurry you could wait for that. Shell
Shocker deals typically are pretty good products at rock bottom prices
and free shipping. Great stuff if it's what you're looking for.
Hey, thanks for the tip, Mark. I'll wait until Friday to see what they
offer, no need to rush. I have an account with Newegg already and have
always been satisfied with their service.
I checked out the specs for a couple of Zalman's PSUs. Nice hardware but
the prices are a bit steep. At this point I'm leaning towards Ray R's
recommendation (Antec EarthWatts 500), but I will wait for the Friday
Newegg special.
Btw, the machine also had a dead RAM stick, one I bought from Crucial.
You once told me that they have a very good replacement policy, and
indeed it looks like they'll replace it at no charge. Nice policy,
definitely makes me consider Crucial before buying memory elsewhere.
Best,
