Try rl supplies (RLSupplies.co.uk) or watford electronics (Watford.co.uk). Both have been very reasonable when I have needed bits before.

Don't bother buying a P3, it's very long in the tooth.

If you want Intel, get a 1.7 or 1.8Ghz Celeron

Overclockers up in Stoke are usually competative and you'd be able to collect.

overclockers are great

I use oc's for all my hardware needs. Being quite local, you can just drop in and buy the pieces you need without having to pay for delivery.
