hello is it possible to assemble a computer at a reasonable price for currys? are the prices too high? I am asking because only there they gave me a loan. I would be interested in a gaming PC up to £ 1800. mouse, monitor and other things I have.

Read the FAQ, no mention of OCUK competitors allowed. :)
 
Don't overclockers do finance options too for the pre-built pcs? I really wouldn't buy from that place u mention tbh. I used to work there in high school, they were all terrible specs for silly prices, relying on good looking basic spec numbers like main drive capacity and no-name ram with integrated or meh graphics.
 
Currys PC's are dreadful. I had one years ago when i was a kid because my dad was hooked by the salesman who said "this will definitely run the top games on high settings", even though i was there telling him it wouldn't. Guess what, it barely run anything on medium.

My dad then went against my advice two years ago and bought another PC from there. Guess who got a piece of crap that barely does what he bought it for?

yeah, most of the people working there have absolutely no idea about the products they're selling you. Always worth building your own with how easy it is these days or at least buying from a proper computer store
 
Like, I don't see them as competition to Overclockers because they don't know what they are doing and the products they sell are somewhat very different to the product types that Overclockers sell.

Think Dell or HP or Lenovo OEM machines with some gaming prebuilds that are sold to very very normy users. Overclockers sells to people who want to have a machine that they can build themself that isn't a generic green PCB poor VRM POS.
