Well, this has been done before (I can remember) however I can't find it, so I'm asking for it again.

Where does everyone get their computer hardware from? Could people mention websites of anywhere they know of that is respectable, as I would like to look around, and get the best deals possible for my stuff.

Thanks

Definitely would recommend Scan.co.uk. Doing a build at the moment myself and they seem to be pretty rapid with sending out the components. Also very good customer service. Emailed them twice with some questions and the responded within the hour.

I'm pretty loyal to ebuyer, prices don't always matter to me I am ordering for customers and they foot the bill.

Their returns are spot on, they collect or even swap on the doorstep next day in most cases which is pretty good.

My list of sites is pretty similar to the ones from Alex and Serverguy. However, I also got some pretty good esperiences with:

www.eclipsecomputers.com
www.onlinememory.co.uk
www.specialtech.co.uk

I used these guys for my first build. They were pretty good I guess, but their prices just dont really compare to scan for my current build anyway...
