I'm off to the US at the end of the month for a few days on business. Is it worth me trying to buy anything.....like maybe a graphics card? I've nosed about and although my x1300 does what it needs, it's not glorious.
I can get away with it as I'll be putting it on a cc so the missus won't see it, but obviously I don't want to spend too much.
Or shall I stick to trainers and jeans as purchases.
Oh and has anyone been to St Louis?
As $ is not that expensive now I think you will find some things quite cheap. A friend of mine went completely haywire on camera equipment when he was over there. Tip is to check the internet for stores local to your destination and compare prices.
a PS3!
IIRC its about $2 to the £ at the moment, so I would get involved, especially if you can bring it back yourself. Just watch out for how you pack stuff with the old x-rays an all...
My sis just got home from Canada and she went through the US where i made her pick up some CPU's for me, damn cheap stuff over there, 30% cheaper then back home in denmark :D
Warranty is a gonna be a pain tho if it breaks :P
So the saving looks to be about £70 here and there, so given I have a single core and I think my board supports dual, shall I buy a dual and hold off on a card.
I believe AMD are pushing quads soon so the price may drop, should I wait? And also I guess there's no point in buying a card that's not DX10?
So I'll carry on...
looking at this http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=80730&prodlist=shopping
which comes in at around £220 as opposed to around £350 here...unless anyone knows different?
