Every Saturday of the month you can catch this cool little computer fair just five minutes away…read morefrom Tottenham Court Road station. Expect any kind of hardware you may be looking to buy, including hard drives, sound cards, memory and much, much more. Amateur music buffs are catered for as well, with a huge range of cables, connections gold-plated or not are on offer for amazing prices. Though it sometimes feels dodgy buying computer equipment in a flea market-type situation, you'll find that most of the vendors are backed up by existing shops from around the country. Discuss the warranty with each vendor before you buy too, and you'll walk away having paid prices that are up to 40% cheaper than buying in store and even online for the best brand names.

Went in with some questions about which laptop to get given I am trying to learn how to code, and I…read moregot excellent service at Gigante Computers. The staff were really friendly and gave me multiple suggestions with a detailed description of the pros and cons of each, and even let me try some of the laptops they had in the shop. Stephen was very knowledgeable and helped me through the process of choosing my laptop and now that I have my dream laptop I couldn't be happier. Extremely happy with my experience overall and will definitely be returning for any future tech needs. Highly recommend!

We went to SP computers looking for a ps/2 to USB converter (to use a ps2 cuecat on a laptop with…read moreonly USB). After getting the attention of the employees, who were chatting, we managed to explain what we wanted.. And were told such a thing did not exist any more. We went to "PC's" on Cricklade Road instead, who did know of such a thing and could get it for us.

Took my MacBook to get fixed when the screen didn't move from a dark blue tinted screen. They…read moremanaged to fix it temporarily for £65. 6 weeks later it happened again and now they said the only way to fix it was a new screen at £600. We refused and took it home. We had a look ourselves and managed to fix it with a new charger cable. It has been working perfectly ever since. Other people would have just paid £600 and still had the same problem. My dad has recently used them too and they failed to find the whole problem until my dad suggested they check the graphics card which they then did and added another £250 to the bill. My gut says not to trust these people considering they seem to know very little about faulty computers.

This is one place you can visit if you need a PC or even a laptop that needs repairing. People will…read morehave their favourite stores in terms of where they get their laptops repaired. Give this place a try though. As well as repairing PC's and laptops, you can also purchase laptops and other computer accessories from here. But to be honest I would be more comfortable buying a computer/laptop from elsewhere. The CD's on sale are pretty expensive and that led to me buying them from another place. The prices in terms of the laptops being sold are pretty good. But again I would go somewhere else to buy a laptop. Customers I have spoken to have said they would come back to this shop and get their laptops repaired. The wait was not that long which was one reason why they said they would return. Staff are really helpful and they do know their stuff.

I'm not sure many of the people who work there have very much knowledge of computers at all, or they just don't want to share it. I needed some help choosing a graphics card recently, and after wandering around looking for help for quite some time I finally found a member of staff near the front door, but when I asked him for assistance he said he couldn't possibly help as he had to stand by the door to say 'hello' and 'goodbye' to people! Not a very helpful place, but good if you are desperate and don't need advice.

There's just stacks and piles of stuff everywhere - I have no idea how they find anything! The staff, while knowledgable, aren't generally friendly, and they're really, really slow to serve. They're easily distracted and the wait to get to the till is long - and you'll still stand around while they chat amongst themselves, go off and do other things while they're helping you. Don't go if you're in a rush!

Sure if you're up to date with all the latest games then it might not be great as they're often the same price at new but are second hand here. But those on a budget won't be buying games on the first week or even month of release. The staff here are easy going, and the store is grungier than the new ones. I like the place, but I'm probably bias as I've been coming to this store since I was in my early twenties, and will continue to do so as long as I keep gaming.
