Ok, can anyone tell me where the absolute cheapest place on the net to buy hardware (CPUs etc) is? It has to be a UK site, or one that ships to uk and can accept pounds.
I know about
ebuyer.com
tekheads.co.uk and some others but there must be cheaper?!

www.dabs.com
www.insight.com/uk
www.computerprices.co.uk (price comparasons)
www.overclockers.co.uk
www.overclockingstore.co.uk

Those are the only ones ive ever needed

Dabs being the best for most things.

www.scan.co.uk can have good prices sometimes too

I've heard some good things about www.ebuyer.com as well

Please be carefull with simply.co.uk

I'm currently having a lot of hassle with them, I ordered two items, their web site said both were in stock.
Get an e-mail confirmation telling me the estimated despatch date is 4 days away.
Phone them up, am told that neither item is actually in stock at all!
Canceled order and went to dabs.com instead and both items should be arriving tomorrow or Saturday at latest.
