Budget Gaming PC?

[ReeceS23]

I'm looking for a good gaming pc for 500-800 GBP and I'm not sure what to get, anyone got any suggestions? It will mostly be for games like CS:GO, Rocket League, ARK, Battlefield 4 and Forza Horizon 3 (however I'm not bothered about Forza looking like console as I already think it looks good on Xbox).

Do you want OS, Monitor, Mouse or Keyboard included in the budget?

I would need the OS, however the monitor, keyboard and mouse wouldn't be a problem.

with this build you could go with the i5 7500 which is a faster cpu and still hit the budget . not keen on the case though! i have it and its awful to work inside of .

An I5 7500 single core performance is < 1600 at 3.8 and the 1600 has 2 more cores and 8 more threads...
