Hey, I’m an American moving to NZ (Whangerei, Northland) in a few months and am trying to device if I should fly my desktop/server over or just build a new one there.

What’s the general availability of server and desktop parts there? Any recommended local shops, or do I need to import everything from Asia?

    Decent amount of parts over here but they tend to be more expensive over here, however, consumers have more protection with decent warranties etc if that’s a benefit for you.

    I’m not in NZ, but I’ve heard that it’s difficult or expensive to get stuff in. If you have equipment, I’d bring it with you. And it would be cheaper to do any upgrades now, rather than pay the premium later.
