rec.autos.simulators

I finally have some dough to throw at a sim-worthy computer, and want a
tower built to my specs.  I've followed a bunch of recent threads for
hardware recommendations ... but I haven't noted any recommendations on who
to buy from.

Reputable on-line dealers, please?

Thanks guys!

Kurt

If ya know how to assemble one yerself, www.pricewatch.com is a great place
to buy the components. If'n ya need it put together for ya, then im not
really sure. Maybe Dell or someone is flexible enough to sell partial
systems these days.

Hi Kurt .
I have a Falcon NW system and an Alienware system
http://www.racesimcentral.net/
http://www.racesimcentral.net/
They are 2 of the most popular custom *** pc makers out there.
They make budget *** systems also.
Building your own would save you quite a bit of money also .
I went with these 2 companies because of the warrenty and their reputation.
Had a little trouble with Alienware replacing faulty speakers.
Falcon has been aces though .
Good Luck,

BillK.

www.aria.co.uk if you are in the uk.

Bought a lot of stuff from them over the last few months and any problems
(especially motherboard compatibility) was rectified easily.

and they will assemble and test the thing for a mere $79.00.
