Anyone know of a good prebuilt pc company in the uk?

ZombieGunter · Oct 30, 2014

Hi everyone!

I was wondering what is the best prebuilt pc company in the uk? I am looking to get an i5 build with preferably a gtx 760 and my budget would be around 750 pounds maximum! I have looked at a Company called chillblast and they seem to be good, they have a decent one I've been looking at, has anyone had any experience with them or heard about them? This is the pc I was looking at

Thank you to everyone who replies!

Build it yourself. Save the money and put it towards part upgrades. It's not hard at all, and it's actually useful to know how everything fits together and works for when you want to do some upgrading.

Thank you for the reply everyone, i search up parts for a self built pc on like amazon etc, and I don't seem to be saving money, compared to the chillblast pc, so that's why I'm edging towards that one!

Also I've seen this one aswell, would this run most games like bf4 on ultra - high settings ? And has anyone heard of this company. And are they good? Are they a well known company in the uk?

How are you saving money again? A 4690k in an H81 board is an epic fail. That system didn't include an OS, so that is at £69.99 more you would need to pay. This build costs less, has a far better GPU, and includes OS.

How come the 4690k doesn't work in an h81 mobo?

Putting an overclocking CPU, in a non overclocking board, is a total and utter waste. K series are made to overclock and should be paired with a Z97 board.
