Cool, have your heart set on any sinks yet though? That's what I meant to ask in the first place. Dummy me!:blush:

Wait, Gary's not Sidewinders anymore? I'm trying to visualize the Christmas cards and I don't they were filipino.....

They've always been one of my favorites. Mostly because they're the only place I've found that carry my favorite tubing (tygon 7/16 ID 11/16 OD - takes a tight bend and no need for clamps). I've had out of stock issues from them before, but Gary tends to find what I need and give me extra crap for free for the inconvenience.

I've done a lot of biz with Gary the past few years, and always got GREAT service except for one of my last orders. Turned out they were on vacation so instead of getting my usual overnight delivery with UPS Ground, it took a week and a half. Then, when he got back I was about 100 orders back in the que. About all I buy from him anymore are the sinks, I like the enzotech copper sinks cause they have a little lip on the base that you can put eraser over to hold them down. The low profile memory sinks were perfect for my 480 mem cooling, even with the fatboy in place.

Sorry to hear you had such a FAIL experience with him Bro
