Ok,

So i am after a new computer but not getting it till next year (January/Feb) as i am going to New Zealand for 4 weeks in 2 weeks. I need a reliable company.

I have already got a rockdirect laptop and alienware desktop so any other companies bar these two would be great.

I am looking for a Intel Quad Core, 2GB Ram + Nividia 512mb Graphics Card.

Watercooled would be a bonus but my budget is £2100

I do not want to build a computer even though its cheaper. Don't have time =D

+rep to all sites. :)

Vista will soon outdate XP imo. Better to prepare for the future now rather than cause hassle in the future. You can get XP Pro for another 18quid on the system I posted.

+rep to all who gave links.

I am looking for a custom built machine, not from a company like pcword or laskys which specialise in tvs/sat nav etc..

Any more sites like dinopc, alienware, rockdirect ?

EDIT - I got vista ultimate and xp SP2 so i don't mind what OS

check out Vadim.co.uk they do custom made computers and offer to install two operating systems. They have a few cooling systems to choose from and many other parts. You can probably contact them to not deliver your computer until your back from holiday.
