Likewise. For Cables and other accessories, I usually order from monoprice.com they have some great deals there.
Amazon, and Micro Center are also fantastic places to buy.
compusa.com
Another vote for newegg. Tigerdirect is alright too, prices are a bit higher if not on sale though. Amazon not so much,but geeks.com has decent pricIng on the limited stock that they do have.

Newegg is my favourite. They have amazing deals, everything is in one place, it's easy to find, and in the worst case scenario; the support is actually nice.
There is only one thing I hate about them more than anything.
That is the rebate system.
There is nothing more annoying than having to spend tens of minutes searching for a form, mailing it in, having it fail because Newegg gave you the wrong form then having to deal with the companies themselves who don't make your life easier.
Over the past 3/4 years of using Newegg regularly I've lost well over $550 in rebates alone.
Oh, and another maybe $200 or more on a graphics card from EVGA. I bought a new card and it came DOA - so I discussed the issue with Newegg support, then EVGA. I later ended up getting a refurbished card with no refund. The original card was about $390 and the refurbished cards were around $175 on Amazon.
Aside from that, I recommend Newegg.
Other good places are Tiger Direct and Micro Center stores.

No beef just wanted to know what else is out there!
Amazon, but it often drags me to Tiger Direct - which is what I've used for most of my stuff because they tend to have deals during times when I'm looking for a particular item.
Newegg is another choice but there's no need for an intro when everything is already mentioned.

UK: overclockers.co.uk or scan.co.uk. The ones most often recommended on AWA won't post overseas
