I've been looking around recently for a one around about the £2k
mark. As I
already have a monitor, I just want to buy a box with top end bits in it.
Panrix have always come out good in the past in magazine benchmarks,
but I
found their website to be thoroughly crap and the choice very poor. Dell
are starting to look more towards gaming with their top end systems, but
they ruin it by not letting you customise it enough. Also, their
prices for
upgrading RAM are enough to make the average person faint!

VoodooPC in Canada (www.voodoopc.com) have caught my interest however.
Their machines look the business, can be fully customised exactly the
way I
want (and without monitor!!) and North American currencies are pretty
weak.
My only worrys are faults and returns.



For top end stuff I usually use http://www.overclockers.co.uk/ - good
selection of great components, good service, and good prices. £2k will
get you something *amazing*.


My local company is www.woc.co.uk.

I am sure they will shp whatever you want assembled, tested and OS
installed at a lot less than 2k.
