Where to buy hardware in KL?

fiddler · 27th Jan 2006, 06:25 PM

Hi
I'm intending to build my 3rd system (this one for my 17-yr-old gaming son) and will be visiting KL soon, which seems to be a good location to buy appropriate hardware at keen prices. Just the small light components - mobo, ram and a graphics card. Maybe a HDD too. Can any of you locals recommend a reliable retailer in KL please?

I think most retailers at Low Yat Plaza are quite reliable. Just find the lowest price and the friendliest salesman.

Thanks Chai. I found this link, but there must be many more.

Low Yat is the only place you need to go. I do 99.9% of the shopping there. There are so many retailers there for you to choose from.

Yea, a whole shopping complex full of electronics... Lots of choices. Just make sure you compare prices before purchasing anything.

Err.. That's the Low Yat forums, not the Low Yat Plaza forums. I don't think it's even affliated with Low Yat Plaza itself.

Unfortunately, the price lists there aren't always updated. It's often best to just go there and find the lowest price.
