Best sites for pc building.

[tkz]

Hi all, Im about to start buying hardware for my 2nd pc, what UK based sites can you guys recommend for getting my parts from? The 1st one i built most of the parts came from high street shops, this time im doing it online.

Any help appreciated.

BigPockets.co.uk Blank Media CD-R DVD-R DVD+R DL+ CDRs 8cm DVDs Recordable Discs Free Delivery
Overclockers UK
Micro Direct Ltd - Quality Computer Components
Savastore.com – Computers, Hardware, Components, Displays, Software, Photo, Aries PC
Eclipse Computers

Those are all good sites to buy PC hardware from.

Novatech, and I wouldn't recommend Savastore, the amount of bad experiences I've had (especially with customer support!).

I found savastore really good, well I saw the case I wanted on there, called them up and went to look at it and pick it up in store (their shop / warehouse is in a nearby town)

Price Comparison and consumer reviews at Ciao

That site should have more information on online stores based on customers experiences.

Ah but you live nearby, I ordered a graphics card (it was a one off B-Grade item), I looked at order tracking and it said awaiting stock!!! :mad: There again, other people I know have had good experiences there, so it's probably just my bad luck!

I've always used Ebuyer

They seem to be cheaper or as cheap as other sites, are reliable and most importantly for an online store their returns system is simple and trustworthy if anything goes wrong. Delivery dates are usually spot on as well.

Good luck!
