don't buy any that are not made of chrome-vanadium steel. This will be stamped on each tool and also emphasised on the packaging. Same goes for spanners.

This is NOT NOT NOT NOT the same as chrome plating

Why do you want an interchangable driver? They are not usually very good.

How much are you willing to pay, and what do you want to use them for?

Thanks for getting back.

I will use it only for my PC case which has 3 different screw types. What I'm looking for is all in one for max 15GBP.

Sealey do some tidy looking Chrome Vanadium sets around your price range.

HERE and HERE

Try a tool shop! Tescos, Wilkinson, the sweet shop on the corner may not have a reasonable quality set, although for £15 you would get a comprehensive cheap rubbish set of insert bits and a handle to drive them.
Or buy a 1/4 hex driver handle and the three bits that you want in a decent make and quality.

If it's for a computer, just go down to your local half-decent tool shop and pick up a few long Stanley Fatmax drivers. They're only a few quid each.

Stanley magnums were the best for grip, though i mostly use a power driver now.

cross 1 & 0

Before buying anything, check what type of head you actually mean.
Info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_screw_drives

Use the wrong driver and the screw head will be destroyed, the driver will be ruined, or both.

Thanks for help, bought Stanley 10set.

For full sized, I have Wera vde but they're not that comfy to use. For working on computers, I have a draper precision set which I got from amazon for about £12. I find them better and more comfy to use than other more expensive precision sets. I don't know if Halfords Pro do a precision set but their screwdriver sets are good value at £10 (think that's a sale price) and nice to use.
