Hi guys, just wanted to say what a great forum this is and the work done here is phenominal!!

I'm totally new to the modding seen, and i'm looking for help with sourcing the best(cheapest LOL) :) companies and websites to source all the components, i am from scotland so dont want to be paying too much on delivery from USA etc!

I have a few ideas but dont want to jump in too deep for my first attempt lol!

Will...from Scotland!

Welcome!

I do my components shopping from the following websites (all UK based)

www.microdirect.com (http://www.microdirect.com)
www.aria.co.uk (http://www.aria.co.uk)
www.savastore.com/ (http://www.savastore.com/)

Hope those are all you need!

I'd echo Gaz's list, but also add http://www.ebuyer.co.uk . http://www.overclockers.co.uk are also good, but not the cheapest.

To find the best price: http://froogle.google.co.uk/ is the best place.

Thanks m4gnum I have never bought off overclockers and i think (personally) EBuyer is a rip-off. The main site that I would advise is Microdirect - no hastle and I have bought over £2000 of s**t off there. I have only had one thing that has not worked and I got a brand new one about a week later so I am defo. voting Microdirect!!
