Who can obtain components cheap so I can build a pretty sh1t hot PC for not too much money?

Ive built all of mine bud....up to number 6 now, the one I have now is a 64bit dual core AMD, bags of power etc etc all the extras....less than £600 using decent branded components.

 

I think most small PC shops are reasonably competative these days too.

They are the worst example of customer service I have ever used, they try taking your standard consumer rights and putting them in the bin, charge you for returning orders they packed wrongly so you can get a second one sent out wrongly, and they even sold me a case with an ocuk badge on it, nice enough but they couldn't even be bothered to put said badge on straight :nono:

 

The other thing is they call themselves "overclockers" but refuse to sanction refunds on anything they consider to have been overclocked, if you bought "extreme" cooling gear from them they would refuse to believe it hadn't been overclocked with no further proof, it was after that I had had enough and now use http://www.lambda-tek.com/ who I find quick efficient and friendly, if a little overzealous on the security side...

I've used novatech/overclockers and ebuyer before.

 

Will have a look at these other ones as not heard of those!

 

Cheers guys.

scan all the way m8

Scan looks good! now all I have to do is catch up with all the new technology and price something up!!

depends what you are after m8

 

gaming?

 

if so then i would recommend sumthing like this:

 

Intel Core 2 Duo 4300 or 6300

2 gig corsair Ram

TAGEN 700w PSU

Asus motherboard

Nvidia 8800 GTS 640mb

 

That will last you a while and is a decent spec

 

Intel is 100% the way forward, i personally have a 8800GTS and its the *****x :)
