    I'm getting a new tower unit soon and have about €600 to €700 to spend so looking for the best deal I can get, any ideas where I can look? Are there any online sites like Dell where you can pick your own components and pick what you want?

    Yep Komplett is one of the favourites around here and normally the prices are reasonable. Marx Computers based in Duberlin has something like a base unit where you can add parts as you wish. Have a look at the sticky at the top of this forum titled "Useful sites - buying hardware / reviews / general". You have plenty of options. :) What do you intend to use your computer for?

    No I don't need a monitor as I have a 17" lcd screen so all I need is the tower unit that'll be compatable with it. I'll be using it for all kinds of things, games, photoshop etc so I want it to be a good enough spec to last a couple of years. I'll have a look on them sites and see what I can get then I'll get your opinion on it :D

    Dell outlet store.

    They sell canceled orders.

    It's what you see is what you get, but all desktops are sold without monitor and some people here have gotten good deals out of em.
