    Yoyotech and scan are good.

    What amazing deals have you seen?

    Scan have 4870x2 for €350, Gtx 260 ( 216 ) for €220 + Far Cry 2.

    Core i920 €240, X58 Gigabyte €200, 3GB DDR3 (1600) €110.

    Shipping is over €20 I think.

    No, they rip You off by changing the Vat rate to 21% at checkout, don't know why, they don't pay Vat here.

    Tried to register on both there but neither would let me register anything but a UK address.
    Tekheads and Aria both deliver to Ireland and are far cheaper than Overclockers. Going to be ordering a new build off Tekheads this weekend if all goes to plan, unless I find somewhere cheaper.
