Everywhere is more expensive,mostly due to the rising cost of HDDs I reckon,
& they could go up in price before going down, if they ever do.

That is the equivalent of saying I won't buy petrol from you as you raised your price, or I won't shop at tesco anymore because what I wanted's price has changed

Not at all, hes saying i wont buy from Asda anymore because Tesco is now cheaper. A perfectly valid point.

The one thing I would say, is that while PCS aim to be the cheapest they dont necesserily manage it, however they more than make up for this with their customer service.

no, all the phenoms and athlons are pretty much end of life. There may be a few flying around here and there but amd are not importing anymore into the eu. The equivalent and newer amd fx bulldozer is the fx-4100.

955 - 3.2GHZ Quad core
FX-4100 - 3.6GHz Quad core

The bulldozer FX processors havent had rave reviews because they dont compete with the sandy bridge k-series. That being said they are still better than the phenoms they are replacing and much cheaper than the sandy bridge equivalents.

And the llano processors are far better than the athlons.

Was ridiculous to do CPUs which are aimed at threaded computing as most stuff is Single-threaded. Like the x4100 - shouldn't be marketed as 4 Cores.
