Hello,

I am looking for sites that have an "a-list" of PC hardware, like the one on
the UK's PC Pro web site at www.pcpro.co.uk.

Basically I'm looking for the best kit available at the moment, e.g. not
only graphics card, motherboards, etc. but IDE cables, fans and cases.

Does such sites exist, can anyone help?

Kol

I can give you some advice from my experience. I've got Akasa rounded
IDE & floppy cables and I think they're great. I can't fault them
really.

As for fans it depends what sort of thing you want, I go for quiet
personally. At the moment I've got Zalaman fans, the 80mm ones are
really quiet although one of them is alomst dead after less than a
year. I've also tried an Akasa one with flashing blue LED's, it
looked great and was quiet although not as quiet as my Zalman's.
