Just bought my setup today! Arrives on Sat.

I7 = £235 from ebuyer.

Well expensive. I'm only buying it for epeen over the i5! Was so expensive I'll have to buy my GPU from next months payday lol. I didnt go for Aria btw, turns out they got super duper expensive delivery which counters their low price, so I just ended up going w/ Ebuyer for everything!

I have free next day delivery service with Amazon, so I would probably buy from them.

Saving me delivery and also getting it all next day.

Just need to wait as I have a few things to pay this month, aswell as fixing my car.

Also I found that www.aria.co.uk is the cheapest website for UK computer parts, yet to find stuff cheaper! Wouldn't buy PC parts from eBay as you want warranties!

Have you tried www.scan.co.uk ? They even do their scansure on stuff, extra 20 quid or so ontop of the price of your build and if something dies when you installing it then they'll replace it (Great for when you're wanting to overclock it, dont have to worry about killing it!)

I looked at them and they seemed to be roughly the same price as eBuyer so I thought nothing of it!

Anyways, shiz arrived on Saturday and in my spare time I built it and just finished! Took around 6 hours lol.

And I found out that my 9400GT is broken, so the only way of getting visuals from my comp is via my, epic, ATI Rage 8MB graphics card! And as I have to wait a month for a GTX570 I've just bought some **** graphics card lol. Like a GT 430?

But anyways, fun build imo! And sexy case!
