Purchasing components

mossie · 2021-11-26 18:47:18

Just wondering where people are purchasing their PC components now that the UK isn't really an option? I'm looking to repair / upgrade my old computer just wondering if it might be cheaper to buy a pre-built computer

Regarding UK, Amazon is still ok as they apply the Irish vat and charges at checkout.

Thanks. I'm looking at getting a case, motherboard, cpu and RAM, also a GPU. I can rescue disk drives etc, sound card and GPU from my old PC until the supply situation improves.
