where to buy a new PC?
Time to change.
I want an i5 running 64bit with SSD. Already got monitors, keyboards and operating programme etc.
Where is the best place to go I'm a bit out of touch. I tried PC Specialist as they were reccommended but I thought they were a bit pricey at
£650.
Can'y be arsed buying all the bits and assembling as I would rather be in the garage
Reccommendations needed.
Cheers!

PCWorlds 'Lenovo' product is pretty good. Not had any issues with mine yet, after 7m.
Kindest Regards,

Honestly, take the hour or so to build your own, it'll save you time/money in the long run.
Also, who said you can't build it in the garage?

I'd go for Dell for a prebuilt PC, I'm fairly sure their configuration options allow you to 'turn off' things like monitors
and operating systems to get the price down and match your needs.

Lenovo has an IBM connection rather than a HP. My work laptop is a Lenovo Thinkpad.

Lots of places do barebones systems
try Novatech ...... but it isn't much more effort to build a complete system

Lenovo used to be the printer & notebook branch of IBM but that was almost 20 years back no IBM connection these days.
