I'm looking to build my own PC and I'm keen on finding a good retailer that sells at decent prices. Anyone know any British ones? I must emphasize on British, to minimize postage costs. Also, any advice on what Graphics card to get? For gaming, basically. Oh, soundcard too. Thanks!

Well, I would prefer cheap (doesn't everyone?) but reliable works too. I'm saving up at the mo, I just want to get the parts together to have an idea of the price.

In the US I used www.pricewatch.com. You might want to try http://uk.shopping.yahoo.com/computers

Hopefully someone who lives over there could be more help.

www.ebuyer.com are OK, the only trouble Ive have with them is that they once sent me the wrong motherboard. At least they replaced it, eventualy. Other than that, they've been fine.
