Re: Where shuld I buy my new PC from?
Id have a look through Ebuyer.com either at pre-built, or get the parts and build your own, its dead easy!
Overclockers is ok, they do have a reputation, and thats for appalling customer service, I only ever go there if Im desperate and nowhere else has the stuff |

Time to come clean. I was after recommendations so I could compare our employee shop deals, and after looking at the suggestions perhaps we're not being ripped off after all. A Pavilion p6210 (1TB, 4GB) with 21.5 HD monitor is now on it's way to me. Thanks for the suggestions.

Re: Where shuld I buy my new PC from?
Probably irrelevant now but....
A desktop I would normally build myself, but if I was being lazy I would probably buy if from Mesh. For a laptop I would probably go to a shop (Currys, PC World or John Lewis) as I want to inspect the screen (viewing angles) and the build quality, feel of the keyboard etc. |

Re: Where shuld I buy my new PC from?
I've bought from Aria & Ebuyer before. Aria are good value & I like Ebuyer too
http://www.aria.co.uk/ Bought a 'Barebones' system and just added the drives & processor myself. Dead easy, I've done it twice now. Although its about time I built a new system, but if it aint broke why fix it
