It looks like I'll be returning to Korea next fall and would like to get a system custom-built, so I'm wondering if I should maybe pick up some components this summer back home. So- as far as things like motherboards, graphics cards, RAM, hard drives/optical drives, etc... are they generally more expensive in Korea or in Canada/USA? |

Most components are similar, except for graphics cards, which are often much more expensive.
Also, if you plan to go wireless, the better wifi routers/APs are a LOT more expensive here. You'd pay 250,000 for a Belkin Pre-N router that you would pay 120,000 for back home.
Notebooks are more expensive here, too.
Compare prices at www.danawa.com or www.enuri.com |

Agreed. My new graphics card is on its' way here from The States as we speak. Pick up the graphics card while home. |
