Price checks
Is this PC overpriced?
We compare a builder’s price with the same parts bought from UK retailers. If the builder doesn’t name a part, we say so instead of guessing.
We publish a check once every part is named and priced. More are on the way as builders send us their full part lists.

Prices change, so check before buying. Sorted by builder price. Partial totals only add up the parts we could price and aren’t comparable with the builder’s price.
How a check works
Three steps, no guesses
We copy the spec
From the builder’s own product page, with the price, URL and time.
We price named parts
One retailer page at a time. In-stock prices only, with links and timestamps.
We compare, or we don’t
A verdict needs every part named. Generic parts mean “can’t compare”, never a guess.
