Compatibility |
|
|
|
|
|
We do not use proprietary parts. "Name brand" manufacturers who
design parts like the motherboard in-house, may design these parts so that you have to go
back to them to buy compatible upgrades (and possibly end up paying a lot
more).

Choice |
|
|
|
|
|
Dell, and many other well-known PC manufacturers, use only Intel
processors. You can't buy the latest AMD based PC from
them. What if the AMD represents the best bargain for you? Even if
it doesn't you may still be compromising on other parts because of
top level restrictive agreements big PC manufacturers sign with
component manufacturers.

Unlike buying from some of the bigger, more bureaucratic companies, buying
from us is quick, easy and pain free. No long periods on hold. Usually
quick deliveries. No premium rate telephone support numbers.

companies make their money from the cartridges,
not the printers. Many PC companies make their
money from not providing you what they should but charging you an arm and a leg for it later!

Quality
|
|
|
|
|
|
The myth that only name brand manufacturers build quality PCs is now
widely accepted as untrue. We don't use the proprietary parts some of them
use. Browsing through some of our PCs it will be
evident that we are very selective with the parts
we use, and only the best will do. What's more, you may
actually be getting better quality from us! For example: The Sony or
Iiyama monitors that we provide are probably better than some of the "own
brand", "re-branded" or "badged" monitors provided by some of the better known PC suppliers.
With us you know what you're getting. You can usually get independent,
third party reviews on those products.

Professionalism
|
|
|
|
|
|
It helps if you know what you are doing. Unlike some manufacturers who use
untrained school leavers to build their PCs in an assembly line, we use
specially skilled computer engineers. That's why time after time
our PCs
beat some of the biggest names
in the business.
Other tests
prove that we
consistently give you more punch for your money.

PC Direct: "There are a few surprises in the results... Best
Price's (xxx) system seems to have a hard disk that is much faster
than all of the others, despite having the same Maxtor drive as
several other systems. This persists even with repeated running of the
benchmark so it doesn't appear to be a glitch".
Of course it's
not a glitch. Reviewers are finding time and time again that we just do things better. We have expert insider
information on how to optimise the BIOS, how to use the latest drivers for the
hard disk, how to tweak Windows, and how to get
maximum performance out of PCs! (We
share some secrets here). We are PC
enthusiasts and are constantly testing and
innovating.
You will find that our PCs give you
typically 25% more speed than a similar PC built built elsewhere, even if
they use exactly the same parts. (See
test results).
But it's a lot
more than just speed.

Guaranteed
Satisfaction
|
|
|
|
|
|
That's
right. Phone around - most brand name suppliers will not give
you a refund if you are not satisfied with your computer. That
is true. We are so confident that you will be delighted
with any purchase from us that we are happy to give you a 14 day
money back guarantee on most products, no questions asked (details
here).
That's why our
customers rave not just about our great prices but also about a level of
service that puts us miles ahead of the rest.
