-pops- Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 Hmmmm.... Such is my opinion of any store which is part of DSG, including PCW and Currys, I would not even buy a magazine from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 We had this already for a few years here; in fact many electronics stores have a Sony, Toshiba, IBM, NEC, Dell, etc. section, with tech people from these companies present. At Dell, you can talk with the Dell techies, and they help you configure your computer to exactly your needs, while simultaneously you see the price displayed when components are added or removed.I have ordered my last few Dell computers this way, and I am very happy with this method.

AlanHo Posted December 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 One of the easiest sites to configure a computer to your own spec in the UK is PC Specialists.Their prices seem to be very competitive.I priced up all the components for a new Vista desktop :-Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 CPUASUS Silent Knight 2 Ultra CoolerASUS P5K Motherboard2 GB DDR2 800 MHz RAMTwo 400 GB SATA2 hard drives 16 MB cache 7200 rpmTwo Liteon 20 x dual layer DVD burnersNVidia GeForce 8600 GT PCI express graphicsInternal multi card readerCase with 600W Quad Rail Quiet PSU and case fansWindows Vista Ultimate.Buying the components from various web suppliers totalled £883 inc delivery. I then found that PC Specialists could provide one exactly the same fully built for £790 inc VAT and delivery.I still intend building one though - for the experience.
