Silicon Valley Compucycle / SVC

Great service and super fast shipping! Highly recommended. Superb RMA service as well!

Top service, delivered what I wanted earlier than expected. Good prices, too !

Got the exact parts I ordered and they arrived in two days by US Mail from San Jose, CA (I assume) to Pennsylvania. Pretty nice.  
 
The only negative is that I couldn't find another cable I needed but I found it on Amazon. Can't figure that one out.

Incredibly fast shipping! Very pleased with the 24-pin ATX and 8-pin CPU extensions I ordered. Will definitely order from SVC again!

SVC was fast to ship my thermal compound for my new computer build. SVC has great prices on thermal compound, specifically the highly-acclaimed Shin-Etsu G-751 Thermal Compound. For two 1.0g syringes the total came out to $6.00 with free shipping. Let's just say it's a good thing I ordered two of these, since one of the syringes was cracked. Luckily I did not even use half of one syringe, let alone two. The packaging could have been a lot better considering how fragile these syringes are, but I can't really blame SVC because the product got damaged on its way to my doorstep.  
 
Update: Shortly after this review, SVC shipped two additional thermal compounds to me without me even asking them to do so. Very impressive customer service and it appears that they definitely care about their customers. I did not originally blame SVC for the damaged product, as any number of things could have happened to it as it was handled by various mail carriers, etc. SVC is a very good company that obviously values you as a customer.

Items were packaged adequately and as described. They had things in stock that other large stores didn't have. I've placed many orders in the past and shipping is pretty fast and I've never had any issues warranting contacting customer service. SVC seems like a genuine company that cares about customers.

I ordered a Noctua NH-U12P SE2 CPU cooler on 7/15 with 2-3 day USPS shipping. It arrived the next day on 7/16! Granted, I'm in San Francisco and SVC is in San Jose, but sometimes resellers just sit on an order for a day before shipping. SVC shipped on the day that I ordered, as the website promised. Packaging used crumpled butcher paper instead of styrofoam peanuts, which is great for the environment. I'm very satisfied!

Ordered three super-quiet Noctua fans and a fan adapter. Arrived within two days via Priority Mail and the order was perfect. Will definitely consider SVC for future orders!

Ordered A Part that was Out Of Stock.  
I was called at Home by the company within 15 minutes of placing the order.  
The Sales Rep was very helpful in assisting me to get a substitute that was even better than my first selection and shipped the same day  
I will definitely order from this company again

Made a small purchase of 3 pin fan to 4 pin adapters. Quality of items was good and worked fine in my computer. Free shipping to the east coast by USPS was only 3 days. Would definitely buy from them again.  

In searching the net for a particular item I needed, the only, and I mean ONLY stateside company that carried it was SVC. Spoke to a fellow named Wyman (or it could've been Weyman..not sure) Phone ordered the part and because I live within 100 miles of San Jose, I received it the following day. The free shipping was a bonus. More companies should follow SVC policy and mail the small items in small packages. Not like some who mail in too large of a box filled with endless peanuts and charge unnecessary prices for S/H...Whoever runs SVC, I say KUDOS TO YOU and staff. Certainly have bookmarked you guys for future orders...Thanx

They made a small mistake and sent me 2 wrong cables they sent the correct ones and gave me the wrong ones free of charge Thank You Weyman Kwong and SVC your the best

I've ordered from them twice and had excellent experiences both times. Ultra-fast shipping to Brazil. Thank you very much!!

Thanks to the detailed product information available from SVC, I was able to make a well informed purchase decision. The site's performance was above average, and the interface was clean; it was fairly easy to locate the products and information that I needed. SVC listed parts by their manufacturer's model numbers, instead of an internal SKU, so I was able to easily locate additional information or third party reviews when I needed to. The parts performed as described on the site. I paid a competitive price for the product as well as for shipping. The parts were well packed that arrived within the estimated delivery time. I placed the order in the late evening, and, according to the clean and concise tracking email that I received promptly, the parts shipped the following day. In addition to confirmation emails, I received a packing slip that had all the information I required presented in an easy to read fashion. At the end of the checkout process, I was able to clear a check box to preemptively "opt out" of an email newsletter; I feel it is a better practice to follow an opt-in model. My purchase experience was positive and I have no complain, nor do I have any issue.

I have purchased from SVC for many years. I have had great customer service every time. I remember buying a fan or light from them years ago. When I got it it didn't work. SVC sent me a replacement with out me having to send the old one back. I will always buy from SVC.
