Why do you want to hit the high street? You're going to pay a lot more than you could be online. http://www.overclockers.co.uk, http://www.ebuyer.co.uk, http://www.aria.co.uk, http://www.dinopc.com, http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk are all going to get you a better deal than anything you can net in the likes of PCWorld.

 

If I had to choose, I'd probably go for Curry's because you can normally haggle them down and I got my TV from them at a great price with cover thrown in.

 

Tesco have some good deals sometimes too.

Build your own. With a couple of hours setup time you can cut the price on a system by a ton and not be forced to use something like a Dell XP installation (as an example).

Hmmmm. Build my own sounds difficult. I just wanted it from high street for speed and ease really. Would be more sensible to buy online. Thanks folks. Ill have a look at those sites now.

You live in London, yeah? Tottenham Court Road. You'll get a decent deal there. Won't be quite as cheap as internet prices, but it'll be reasonable and a lot faster than waiting for a custom build (up to two weeks easily).

This ones fucked. It just keeps switching off and I dunno how to resolve it.

 

Semi want one with a shit load more memory and power anyway.

 

Where shall I go? Comet? Currys?

 

Didn't you only buy your pc last year? Won't it be under warranty?

Or just get an ugprade? It could be cheaper than you buying a new pc every year.

 

Ebuyer are great, I bought a laptop from them at christmas and it turned up in a couple of days. :)
