First PC build

Muzzy2002

So I'm in the UK and I've come to realise that everything costs a lot more over here which I think is due to 20% VAT and if I bought all of my PC parts off of amazon from the U.S. It would be £249 cheaper so do you think I should buy from the U.S. Or UK?  Thanks in advance

As long as everything ships internationally then I don't see a problem.  Though I would get the power supply from Amazon UK because if you got it from the US it would have a US plug.  Though you might have to pay customs?  I don't know much about that but I would research it before you buy just in case.

If customs isn't a problem (I doubt it will be) then hell yeah save dat money.  ORRR put it into a better part like the next GPU up or more ram or a bigger SSD or something like that if you can.
