    Hey guys

    I have a friend at work who needs to source a budget gaming PC (500-600 Euro) from a french equivalent of aria/scan/overclockers. Normally I would just source the parts from our awesome second hand forums but as they live in France and are non techy need to buy it as a whole so have warranty.

    Think they already have the monitor so just need the base unit. Can anyone recomend any french etailers as above?

    Cheers

    Kosch

    Yeah, I resisted, wasn't sure which gender to use for each store :)

    Edit: actually it'd be l'Aria and l'Overclockers.

    Ok i've thought about this too much now.

    I did German at school so only have del boy level French knowledge. You mange tout me?

    Overclockers has to be masculine for it's testosterone filled forums and I thought I'd accentuate that by making the first 2 feminine.

    Except you got it the wrong way round... Le -> Masculine, La -> Feminine
