Just seen a new magazine in Tescos aimed at people looking to build their own PC. I think it was called 'Custom PC' (Funnily enough)

Has to be commended imo rather than a PC world special.

Let me guess - its published by Future, and sits on the shelf alongside their new sister mags PC GamingWorld and PC Hardware. They couldnt even fill PC Gamer with enough info so Ive no idea how theyre managing to squeeze more standalone mags out of it.

Future can fuck off. No offense Forensic if you're reading this :x

yeah agreed with delta, there "normal" magazine is hardly contains a fountain of information, then they bring out this new magazine, probally a one off, with information which should be in the normal magazine,

just another way to get more money :o :mad:

It's from the Dennis Publishing stable, who already do Computer Buyer, Computer Shopper, PC Pro, CVG, PC Gamer, MacUser and a load of other crap.

It was actually pretty good.

i think the editor, or one of the guys involved is the guy who started up hexus.net

A good modding/hardware mag is

PC Gaming Hardware cost £4.99

got that one aswell.

another fairly newish one is PC Extreme (no idea who the publisher is).

Its not as glossy as the other 2, but has some interesting articles none the less.

PC Extreme is by livepublishing

That is ok, but has software reviews and stufff in. Not all hardware.
