Computer components stockists
 
Does anyone know any decent stockists either AD or Dubai?

I'm looking for a top spec Micro ATX mobo such as the ASUS Rampage III GENE or the SuperMicro X8D with a 1366 socket.

Try Computer Plaza in Bur Dubai across from Al Khaleej Centre.

Computer Plaza is highly recommended for anyone wanting bits and pieces for their project....

It took me about an hour to go shop to shop and do a bit of haggling, but I ended up with exactly what I wanted - an ASUS Rampage III Gene for the equivalent of £156, around £20 cheaper than the cheapest online reseller in the UK and no shipping.

K+ to the recommenders

Yep...a digital media PC. I bought most of the kit while I was in the UK in December but screwed up in buying an ATX rather than a micro ATX motherboard.

So if anyone is in the market for an ASUS Ramage III Extreme ATX with a 1366 socket....
