    will be looking to trigger to buy a new system in the weeks ahead, but hesitant to buy of uk sites in light of the drama across the pond.

    overclockers.co.uk
    scan.co.uk
    amazon.co.uk

    last build i did was when hardwareversand.de was in business and a few bits from mindfactory.de

    anything outside of the above that is maybe new/decent?
    any extra thoughts about scan or overclockers?

    Amazon and OCUK are fine. Avoid Scan. Terrible customer service.

    What terrorfirmer said^ scan does not give a crap if something they sell you is faulty,i wouldnt even buy a cable of them ever again
    stick with amazon for the no hassle customer service and ocuk in my small experience with them are fine also

    Thanks,
    But any other European alternatives given the brexit ****e, potentially ordering uk items in the weeks ahead could be additional import duties

    also support, buy today delivered with no hassle but then the worst case scenario happens - where I stand on consumer rights when they become a third country for after issues...

    Amazon.it, .fr, .de use camelcamelcamel to find out which is cheaper and check for items “fulfilled by amazon” too, they can sometimes be cheaper than the ones sold directly by amazon
