Buy now from online computer hardware stores in India

If you have been looking for online computer hardware stores in India where you can check prices for computer hardware parts before you go personally and haggle over the counter or if you want to order online, you have come to the right place. Here are some online stores which have a good range of products and prices are fairly representative of over the counter sales prices.

1) The IT Depot @ http://www.theitdepot.com/
This is one of the most professional looking online stores in India besides being one of the oldest. Based out of Chennai, IT Depot offers a lot of brands that were once hard to find in India. They deal with brands like Antec, OCZ, Logitech, Belkin, Sennheiser, Cooler Master, Silverstone, Razer, Abit, Corsair and EVGA. The prices are slightly higher than over the counter prices but then a lot of brands available at this store are not found elsewhere. Products are neatly categorized and are selectable by price ranges, brands and other sub-classifications. You will also find product specifications here.

2) The IT Warehouse @ http://www.theitwares.com/
Based out of Mumbai, this store is not very flashy looking but one look at it and you know they mean business. The website has a minimalistic look and is well organized. Some special brands dealt by this store are Tagan, Seasonic, Dell, Thermaltake, Razer, Thermalright and Arctic. Products are priced pretty decently.

3) Buy Gaming Stuff @ http://www.buygamingstuff.com
As the name gives away, this website prides in dealing with gaming related hardware and most importantly, the games themselves. They are the only store I have come across that sell popular games online and the pricing is competitive with retail stores. Most popular brands mentioned for the previous stores are also available here but mostly with focus on their gaming products. The store also deals with XBox and Playstation games and accessories.

4) Techshop @ http://www.techshop.in
7 days shipping, 6 shipping options and 4 payment options is the tag line of this store. Very similar to theitwares website, techshop in addition to computer hardware also deals with mobilephones, MP3 players and cameras. I also found the Zotac Mini-ITX GeForce 9300 motherboard here which was an interesting product.

5) Prime abgb @ http://www.primeabgb.com
Prime is just like most of the other stores mentioned here. What I like about their product range is their collection of Silverstone chassis. I have been lucky enough to work on a silverstone chassis and felt that it was one of the best in terms of attention to details to make life easier for the user. Now I know where to buy it from in India. And the prices are in line with most of the high-end chassis from Coolermaster and Antec chassis from other sources. They also have a decent collection of highly rated CPU and GPU Heatsink Fans.

6) Media Home @ http://www.mediahome.in/
I guess there are enough websites in the list already that should give most users a decent idea of the prices of popular and highly rated brand of computer hardware. Media home is yet another one in this list and their collection of Seasonic branded powersupplies impressed me. They also seem to have most of the brands. Suprisingly there is no separate section for motherboards. I also found some image rendering issues with the website that definitely needs a fix.

7) ComputerWarehousePricelist @ http://www.computerwarehousepricelist.com/
Computer Warehouse Price list is another old website which I used for checking prices of commonly available hardware before other websites became popular. Back then the prices mentioned were overpriced by about Rs.500-1000 but were a good indication of approximate counter prices. They don't seem to have the more popular and niche brands like the other websites. The website also feels very clunky though organized.

There it is. 7 Stores in India from where you can buy the coolest computer hardware parts. International brands and high performance products all now available in India. Now I wait for the day when Amazon and Newegg start delivering parts in India at competitive prices and raise the bar for online stores.
