Best UK OEM?

[blackdog]

Can you guys link me the best OEM retailers where to buy from in UK?

With best I mean those with the best price/service ratio, not simply the one with cheapest prices.

 

I want to look at some prices to budget for a machine.

After long time thinking to get a gaming laptop, I'm thinking about building a rig with a mini-case instead, but still open to different options.

 

I can assemble the thing on my own no problem, but of course if you can recommend shops that can do that at reasonable price, i'm all ears.

 

Thanks

I've always tended to use Ebuyer, Dabs, and Overclockers. The last is probably my favourite and has been around years and years.

No matter where you order from, always check the Amazon price.

Really?? Amazon is competitive on computer components?

In Italy nothing beats some small shops.

Thanks, I'll start comparing prices

It depends really, don't forget that lots of independent small vendors sell their items through Amazon. So in a way, you're searching through many of those small shops when you do an Amazon search — you can sometimes get a great deal.

 

I always check, even though I usually get the best prices and range from the other three sites.

Aria used to be a good one, not used it in a while. Otherwise, Ebuyer is a good one too

The guy who owns overclockers is some huge nazi supporter FYI. I try not to buy from there because of that.

Wtf lol? I can't anything about that, any sources or more info? I'll certainly stop buying from there if that's the case.
