    Comp For Sale forum ;) Some nice deals ever once and a while.
    Or dell for a cheap nasty built system.
    Pc world for muppets trying to sell you things you have no need for.
    Elara for a decent pre built system.
    Komplett pre built systems.
    overclockers for a good solid built system good parts, the only thing though $$
    Alienware out of your range..

    Spend 20mins, adding up the cost of parts, software, vs what a prebuilt machine give you, and you will answer the question yourself. Which Overclockers? Theres a few of them. Just be wary of the returns (RMA) policy. Some UK sites aren't great if you have a problem. Alienware, Elara ... ha ha ha... :D
