if building yourself id say computer fairs, novatech, scan, overclocker all do good prices on things.
If pre build sometimes Aldi have the medion pcs for good prices i think and include 3 years warrenty. here here 2 but it also depends what price you are thinking of paying Last edited by madnlooney; 25-10-09 at 09:44 PM. |

If you want to build a PC I have a fair few spares kicking around. Couple of tower cases, dual core cpu, ram , hdd psu, just no mobo or gpu.
May even have some watercooling bits ![]() |

I think it's mental you can get a great spec pc for £400-£500. Couple of years ago you spent a grand and got a piece of crap pc

That is a nice service, no doubt about it. But you do pay for that service. To get the same £400 tower your looking at close to £1000 for the dell version!!! ![]() |

I used to build my own PCs, until I worked out that Macs are actually cheaper in the long run.

Yes, they have a reasonable stock list, but the prices are too high and customer service seriously sucks. If you have a problem they try to fob you off with going back to the manufacturer. They try anything they can to not have to deal with you once you've paid

I should have mentioned that my tower unit (AMD Athlon II X4 620, 1TB, 4GB) is £427 with free delivery. For that price most other places would only give you half the disk space and less RAM.
