I get ALL my computer parts from www.overclockers.co.uk - it's reasonalbly cheap, great customer service, and next day delivery.

Spent thousands of pounds there and never had to complain.

:) Hope this helps.

ive used quite a fewof the above, and i dont have any gripes with them, but i have been using www.bcomputing.co.uk lately, i got a good deal on one of thier bundle deals, and i buy quite a few bits from thier, little things like case fans etc. because they have a good P+P rate for small items, cos i know with some of the other, you pay 9.99 no matter what you buy, whether its a mouse or a case. Check them out- Computer Components.

He is right but its only worth using cclonline if your ordering in bulk as the saving will be good but for single items unless ccl has them on free delivery its worth checking out ebuyer.


Also check out Eclipse Computers some of there prices beat even CCL, personally I have used CCL for years but for the current build im working on im using

Overclockers - MOBO

Eclipse Computers - CPU, GPU, THERMAL PASTE (standard stuff dont cool enough for me), HEADSET, MOUSE, KEYBOARD

CCL Computers - HDD, RAM, CASE, PSU

EBuyer - TFTSCREEN, 2.1 SPEAKERS

even with shipping charges from 3/4 places it works out a good price to shop around and sometimes u get better parts for your money, think total bill went up by £10 or so because of the shipping but for the better parts its worth it.

Just shop around anyway, there are plenty of links given further up, depending on what you want will depend on where to buy from.

Have fun
