PC Specialist, SCAN and Overclockers have all got very negative reviews often linked to support and delivery. This is a real issue with remote buying but I guess that like here few people sign up to report good service so these things need a touch of sodium chloride in the mix.

One review site has recommended Easy-PC who sell via ebay and the feedback there is extremely good. Anyone here heard of or used them. The review indicated very knowledgeable engineers and responsive support.

I am also still trying to get recommendations for a sound card that will work in Linux and have Midi I/O ports like my old Audigy card (via daughter back plate joystick port). The XFi card look good buy bad Linux support.
