    Has any one got any recommendations on where to buy an MSI laptop in the UK?

    I got my last one from Amazon but there's a 1 to 2 month wait for pretty much all their models.

    Also are there any places I should avoid buying from?

    Thanks in advance!

    As a reseller I can't recommend any places in particular but I have seen some good deals on barebones floating around, they tend to be shop branded.

    Here it is a web site to consider: MSI Gaming Laptops - Scan.co.uk

    Does anybody know whether both hard disk drives on MSI GT70 Dominator 895 are SATA 3(6.0 Gb/s.)?

    All of the connections are SATA 3 (6 Gbps).

    Hi Meaker, cheers for your reply - much appreciated! Where could I find any barebones laptops? (As in the past I've bought my computers from big companies e.g Jigsaw, Dell or Amazon and I don't really know much about smaller sellers). Also out of curiosity it says your location is Coventry, England but your signature for Power Notebooks is based in America - I'm guessing they don't have an English based site?

    We do ship internationally but are in no way based in the uk unfortunately.
