Novatech, Chillblast, PC Specialist, Scan PC and they 3x department, Amari how do they compare, any experience of them, worked for them? Which are better?

These are who Im am short listing for a workstation purchase and trying to find out whats not listed in their sites ie customer service, relaibility, how they treat workers ie is it cheap as they treat them bad etc, is it cheap now but no good if things go wrong etc, how good are the waranttes etc?

Out of those names, I've dealt with Scan PC on purchasing parts from them, though I'm not located in UK. If you're looking for the best piece of advice, I'd suggest putting your system build through PCPartPicker and collect parts that are the cheapest according to your region. That doesn't mean you start hunting for the cheapest prices for that component since "If it's too good to be true" it's probably not true at all.

You could also pay a visit to the stores you've shortlisted to get a feel of how they operate before sinking your money as I've seen a lot of horror stories(while I was on OCN) of how dodgy a person can be in the UK.

LOL I like the advice on visiting the stores, the only problem there is they are all over the country from scotland Bornmouth and some may just be makers. Only onbe is close and thats Amari but they cost too much (probably london rent) .

Was looking to have them put it together... I can do a lot of it myself but not done of the motherboard and processor case and fine tuning yet and this build will be over £4000 and want it done right
