Have u checked out the komplete website.

www.komplett.ie

It is the cheapest I've ever found.:D

Mixie

I've done a fair bit of business with them in the last few months, and the only complaint I have would be that they took almost a month to test some PC parts. Other than that, I'm very happy with them

have bought from them loads of times. Haven't had any problems.

Marx are a good company to deal with, resonably priced, friendly and helpfull.

But id you know anythign about putting PCs together or have a friend who does I'd recommend buying from komplett.ie cause you'd save a few quid and probably end up with a better rig.

id be replaceing the G-card iwith a Geforce fx 5200 128meg

i hope u realise the difference between a geforce 4mx 440 and the fx 5200 will be minimal and its not worthwhile to swap also the case is likely to be a cheap horrible thing

bizmark

ya i should of said i was considering getting a radion 9600 128 meg (seems much better)

i wouldnt be 2 worryed about how the case looks to be honest as long as it hold,s together for a year or 2 lol


and no i have no experiance with sticking together a pc from the bottom up ....... i have done most of the upgradeng on this one though...... new hard drive g-card cd rom ram

thanks for your help btw it seem,s marx,s are a good company

Ruu_Old

deal with them every week, very friendly and fast delivery good luck with ur pc

bizmark

lol they are a nice company i sent them a email saying i wanted the 2700xp(and complaning that i couldnt pick 2 option upgrade.s i want the 2800xp barton MORE than worth the 55 euro upgrade for the extra speed ......... and they told me that if i waited a month or so (which i was going to do anyway) that the 2800xp could well be standered on the system and the price is likely to drop

never had that happen before

oh ya thanks Ruu

El_MUERkO, I think you are spot on. I would tend to build rigs myself, but if I need a part (in a hurry) I find Marx very good like you say and also knowledgeable. Keep track of their weekly special as well, cause it can be good sometimes

BigEejit

As was mentioned, keep an eye on the specials, I got some great stuff there. And one time I ordered two cables and they rang me up to make sure that i wanted both and that I hadnt made a mistake.

i think they have a value club kinda scheme thing automatically. What i mean is for every few quid ya spend they give ya a discount value to use on future purchases. don't know if they are still doing this.

I use komplett.ie for most things but marx are just as good and usually get my smaller stuff off them, they had lovely boxed lan packages(mini hub so cool) a while ago, and i got a nice volcano 9 heatsink and fan with led grill thing.

elexes

dont forget www.elara.ie pritty gud them . ive delt with every company on this page but i would buy off elara or komplett.ie quicker then i would from marx . tho i have started to buy dvd+r's from them as they seem very gud value

bizmark

i wouldnt touch elarn with a barg pole

935 euro for a intell celeron based pc

they remind me of alienware nice pc,s but no grip on reality when it comes to priceing

alienware 3,200 euro for a fecking area 51 pc !!!!
